RACE ISSUES IN AMERICA:



Who's Got Game?;
THE 'NEW AGE' RACISM:
CONFORMING TO THE SPIRIT OF THE AGE?


In the pursuit of the American Dream there is a 'disenfranchised' entry, because it affords 'ju$t(ice)u$' an 'illegal avenue' in our quest to accomplish or achieve such a dream, via 'felonies and/or felony convictions'. But, African Americans and other people of color are not the only 'collateral damage' of this 'bi-partisan enterprise'. There are those of this or that 'diverse' community who are residents of the 'inner cities', as this 'combination and/or premise' is 'designed' to destroy that which is the very 'fabric of society', and that is the 'family', and specifically, the Black family. But, in the 'game', its participants are called 'playas', hustlers, and 'pimps' and sometimes there is no distinction between either. The 'dogma' associated with this is "don't hate the playa, hate the game". Yet, for any participant of the inner city, especially African Americans, the game is not a 'game of chance', as this particular game is by 'design', since it is designed to keep 'poor whites and poor blacks and people of color on 'paper'; which is long probations, parole, and on even longer sentences in the Prison-Industrial Complex of the U.$. Department of Ju$t(ice)u$. Who are the playas, hustlers, and pimps? Most of them are 'public servants' who propagate lies, false histories, and their 'mandatory compulsory indoctrination' which is referred to as 'education', and is carried out to 'bellicosely and nefariously' 'under educate' many people of color, as this is quite 'exclusive' rather than 'inclusive'.
It should concern all citizens, consumers, and constituents in regards to such 'issues' is part of an 'American-Israeli mind-set' to efface African Americans history, since it does not stop there, and includes the whole of the Middle Ea$t, and all 'coalitions'. The Bu$h Admini$tration stress that, "indeed, they too detest 'it' from the bottom of their hearts, but, they think the 'doctrine' can be shown to be 'moral' by a critique of the objections, originally made, or felt, against it, like $egregation vs. the Holocau$t, or $lavery vs. Recon$truction, or the 'ethnic cleansing vs. racial profiling'. It is nothing like being compared to another ethnic group, like the Jews, and especially when such comparison is 'inappropriate', but, the fact remains that the 'design' is so construed that it results in a 'form of oppressive genocide'. The bottom line is why? C. S. Lewis, the author of the 'Doctrine of Hell', suggests that, "we are reminded of the 'tragedies' in human life, and having done 'whatever', to believe it, and the other tragedies come not from 'not believing it, as the masses are told less". "Most people cannot listen to the silence, as every attempt is to insert a 'degree of voice' to a process that is by 'nature or nurture' unduly complicated, and quite covert". For many American citizens, constituents, and consumers conforming to the Spirit of the Age is contemplating the 'value of money'.
For others it has to do with Theological issues which are maintained through intimidation, yet, we make no mistake that the battle is not about 'gay bishops or homosexuals', but, it is about 'fundamental' truths which are written in the Bible, and Our Father has said, "put no other god before Me", and in any case, we must detach our individual and/or personal feelings from such a phenomenon; by doing so we are more able to relate to a 'group, community, or even humanity, since we are better off when (not if) we find a 'workable' balance to put our attention on all other types of relationships; as seasoned warriors we are called upon to be more attentive to the way ahead and foresight. There is much work Americans need to do concerning $ecurity which 'hinders and hampers' citizens, consumers, and constituents and violates their 'right to privacy'. The Politics of Fear, initiated by Bush Jr.'s 'war on terror', created an atmosphere of Conscience vs. Loyalty not just between ethnicities, but, with fellow Americans. "The poor whites have been victims of a con job going back at least as far as the Civil War, when poor whites were used as 'cannon fodder' for the right of 'rich white men' to keep slaves". "So, for me, the story is not simply the old, familiar tale of the nation's stark racial divide but also another tale, just as old, less often remarked, of how the poor white and the poor black have long been kept at one another's throats as a means of keeping them from looking too 'closely or clearly' at the ways that both are manipulated by the forces of money and power". "From then to now, the white poor have often been the front line of white supremacy". "There are those in positions of power who can and should be held accountable and responsible to answer for the meanness and narrowness of poor people's lives". "But they cannot or will not as long as those who should be standing together to demand answers are kept busy fighting one another over 'superficialities' of color and cultures".
Many issues 'cloud' the overall scenario, like 'racial profiling', the Prison-Industrial Complex, Affirmative Action, illegal Latins, and 'redistricting'. Texas is known as the 'prison-industrial complex state', since a great number of people of color, men and women, are racially profiled to participate, simply because it disrupts families, is financially lucrative, and affects generations of the various ethnic families. People of color and poor whites are 'marginalized', since, most felons or being a felon decreases their community's voting power, and therefore, they are 'disenfranchised'. Well, what does this have to do with anything? It is this, some Americans have aligned themselves with 'people' who believe, and strive to make the 'masses' believe that these people have a 'biblical' advantage, and all must follow these 'people' financially, covertly, and perpetuate their 'dogma', since, the 'point of reckoning' is the Middle Ea$t (what is the words of the Patriot Act I-V, and how does it affect the ACLU, LULAC, and the NAACP)? Another viewpoint is that the 'patriot act' and 'homeland security' are the 'strategic ambiguity' to which American citizens, consumers, and constituents are 'covertly oppressed', in the form of "greatest good, for the greatest amount of people, over the longest period of time". This 'strategic ambiguity' is utilized 'blatantly, bellicosely and nefariously', and especially when anyone disagrees with Bu$h $r., Bu$h Jr. (this form of 'authority' is no different from a 'dictatorship') or, the '$tatu$ quo'. "You cannot save our people, if you cannot serve our people, and you cannot lead our people, if you do not love our people"-Cornell West.
There seems to be an 'open season' of assault and of murder on people of color, misinformation, misdirection, incarceration, and character assassination of African American women and men. What form of 'strategic ambiguity' is this, as the tactic is to use every means necessary to minimize the African American male who is a citizen of the United States, especially since, there are more men of color in the Prison-Industrial Complex, but, not in colleges and universities. There are some who say that the 'psychoses of slavery' have most of Black America shackled mentally, emotionally, and psychologically. The 'truth' is that African American males are 'targeted', and at earlier years, before they can begin to climb the 'ladder of success', politically, socially, and economically, for, it is not by 'chance' that African American males are disproportionately incarcerated, placed in 'special education classes', unemployed, expelled from school, and are 'negatively portrayed' in the media, it is by 'design'. When it comes to 'discretion', especially to prosecute or not, the discretion is exercised more with black males from the bottom up, and all the way up, as there is disparate treatment within 'the triune', which is the U.S.Department of Education, the U.S. Department of Criminal Ju$t(ice)u$, and 'NIMH', the National Institute of Mental Health. But, then there is the impact of the , media and these media are not just covering these kinds of issues, they are giving 'saturated coverage' of these issues, which magnifies the effect or affect or their 'credibility'.
When 'media consolidation', hinders and hampers, any American citizen, it is because of their ethnicity, as they stand in opposition to the $tatu$ quo, but, is there still 'democracy' and is it in accordance with the U. S. Constitution? How is this different from Facism, Nazism, or as the Jews put it, being anti-semitic, and Never Again? Media Consolidation has to do with the move away from individual ownership of media institutions, such as radio & TV networks, and other 'modes of influence and persuasion' of citizens, consumers, and constituent's inalienable rights to free speech, righteous or unrighteous, with regards to morals, ethics, principles, and truth, without fear of persecution and ostracization. But, is it about freedom of speech or censorship, or just blatant violation of the U. S. Constitution? When many modes of dialogue are monopolized, where does competition go, and how does this maintain 'democracy'? Is Media Consolidatiion the 'new age, new world order dogma of propaganda', or does it place each citizen, consumer, and constituent in the 'crossroads' dilemma of choosing between Loyalty vs. Conscience which places a person in a very difficult choice or decision, especially in the today's Politics of Intimidation. My maternal grandmother, Texana Redic, taught me to stand valiant for principle and truth, as I grew and matured in Malakoff, Texas, for it was during Jim Crow and $egregation, and this made it a very difficult challenge to stand valiant for Principle and Truth, to stand confident and courageous in Righteousness while being denigrated and degraded in the midst of Unrighteousness in a society of 'lynchings', Jim Crow, and Segregation, and the same can apply for 'here and now'. She also, taught me that the 'South' is everything southern to the Canadian border. Dr. Edwards says, "Black males have always been a threat to White males in terms of the competition of scarce goods and services, including power, material affinities, position, not to mention possession of women", "Let's face it, if Black males have the same money, the same power, the same position, and the same women, then what would happen to the 'traditon of White male superiority' on which this country was founded?"
"The 'system' and the media have begun to take the lead in demostrating that this Black man must be kept in his place, and there is no question about it, by any means necessary". It is stated that the political and economical shifts of our present time have brought about changes; indeed, the economy is in an 'undeclared recession' and the Consolidated Media are 'propagandizing' the political atmosphere, yet, there is no media coverage about the 'failure' of the 'Homeland $ecurity and National $ecurity', or our financial markets. The following are the areas affected and effected by the Bu$h Jr. Admini$tration, the Republic of Cheney, and the 'war on terror'; 1) philosophy, 2) politics, 3) socio-psychology, and 4) theology; compared to 30-40 years ago, there are no differences between the 'social climates' of then and now!

SPECTRE OVER TEXAS:


Is it true that people get 'psychotic' when encountering the 'end of the century', and more so at the beginning of a millenium. But, violence, mental illness, mass hysteria, suicides, murders, and a highly emotional society are not products of an end of a period of time, as they are a part of human nature and/or nurture. In American society most people get away with telling lies, simply because, the listners of such are themselves attuned to be deceived as much as the liars want to deceive. Most people lie, yet a falsification of a resume is considered a 'victimless' embellishment, and what is it like being in a relationship with an 'adult child of an alcoholic', for, whatever he or she does or verbalizes, is 'reality', and, according to them it is not lying?! Our society has a problem with denying 'principle and truth' possibly because it goes against what some have 'learned' as 'labels, lies, and stereotypes, and it is too 'shocking' to accept that they have been lied to by father, mother, uncle, aunt, etc.! The Bu$h Jr. bi-partisanship persist and insist that Iraq must disarm from the 'weapons of mass destruction', $addam Hu$$ein supposedly has. How much of the same or similar arsenal does Israel have? Bu$h Jr. emphasizes 'war', but, others who refuse have not complied with the request of U. S. 'unilateral coalition', as this is the same $tatement$ made during the Civil Rights Movement, Affirmative Action, racial profiling/ethnic cleansing, redistricting, and the 'various reforms' of this administration's agenda. America is in a Recession! And this ought to set the tone for 'self-healing', and for the American people to extricate themselves from this 'axis of ignorance' which insist that there is in the people, an addiction to racial inequality, and thus, there is no healing? But, stand, understand, over understand, and discern that the Devil is the ruler of the 'realm of the taboo', like 'miscegenation', and it is here that we must apply our sharp perceptions and common sense, so that we, culturally, reject the 'wildness and undigested shadow side' which is in each of us.
We must free ourselves from the 'political' influence and persuasion of 'Church-fueled fear', and not fall 'prey' to these 'wild and passionate' forces which form the 'strategic ambiguity' that is 'systemically' utilized on the constituents involved, as it is in the 'best interest of this incumbency' to coerce compliance and cooperation, but, it is definitely, not 'willingly'. This is the pattern that develops when there is an 'all volunteer response of the poor' in the Armed Forces of the United $tate$; part of the pattern is high unemployment, a loss of jobs across the nation and over the duration of 'thi$ admini$tration; and when the American people 'open their eyes' they will perceive that no 'rich people's children' go to war, anywhere in the 'global community'. The 'economically disadvantaged' are the 'collateral damage' of the 'war on terror' in the War on Poverty. This incumbency attacks 'choice', not just our Constitutional Rights, but, first and foremost, our Spiritual Rights; yes, there is 'trouble' in every American city, for, the citizens are 'bamboozled' to buy gas guzzling SUVs to receive a tax rebate, a taxcut, and a 'stimulus payment', there are no funds for the 'improvement' of public schools, the healthcare system has been 'reformed' to benefit those who make and produce the medicine many constituents need, and more and more jobs are being 'out-sourced' to 'economically disenfranchised countries' while the high profiting corporations rake in the money. And still this administration $tre$$ that American constituents, consumers, and citizens continue to accept what appears to be a benefit to them, it only benefits the 'present and vice president, and his 'men of honor'; like, the hawk$ and dove$ who lie, have lied, and continue to lie to anyone who opposes the way they prefer to make 'revenue'.
Maybe, this explains all of the 'covert attacks and propaganda' which continues 24/7 from the Consolidated Media, and is usually directed toward Barack Obama. The Bu$h Jr. admini$tration has placed the burden and yoke of this 'undeclared recession' on the citizens, consumers, and constituents, and he has the audicity to cry 'war', and seems not to realize that 'his' cry would affect the $tock market$, yet, according to some of the 'bi-partisanship, it is the 'consumers' fault? Unemployment finds over three million people out of work, and 'people of color' are usually the 'last hired', but, the 'first fired'; even in the midst of these 'inequities', this occurs to 'channel' people of color into the Armed Forces, since, at least they will be able to get a steady paycheck; and then came "$addam Hu$$ein, who has weapons of mass destruction, and Iraqis want democracy", so, we must invade to fight the 'war on terror'?" For the majority of the American people there is no 'reconciliation', and there is never going to be under this incumbency; jobs or employment discrimination is up: Why? Does it have anything to do with Bu$h Jr.'$ 'attack' on Affirmative Action? On this journey, we call life, there are 'six honest women' 1)How does anyone rationalize the various 'polarities', like Hostility vs. Hospitality, Loneliness vs. Solitude, and Illusion vs. Prayer, and from the beginning until now, of the Bu$h Jr. admini$tration there is Conscience vs. Loyalty? 2)When is vanity the price paid for self-esteem or, the lack thereof? 3)Who understands the struggle between Loyalty vs. Conscience? Here and now, the global community stand on the 'precipice of death', as all have betrayed Principle because most of us have ceased to 'stand' valiant for the Truth, not one of us can stand tall, as each person has denied 'integrity, dignity, and honor', their own, as well as anothers' , and our dilemma comes, like 'double jeapardy' in a 'paradox' and a 'parallax view'! 4 & 5)What and Why is our unwillingness to get away from the 'color of night', to repent, turn from our jealousy, envy, strife, and division and face Our Father Who Art in Heaven!!! 6)Where can we go after life in a different light, light which reveal a much deeper pain and that pain which points out the Hawk$ and the Dove$ of this incumbency.
It culminates into a 'matrix of mentalities' which are not consistent with living, nor untruths. There persist much 'red tape', tape for an 'extent of relationship', like the 'collision of competition and diversity', since it is an encounter of life and art, without 'truegrit'. But, this 'nature vs. nurture' is not about behavior, it is about 'heritage and legacy' from centuries old tradition and guides to conflict, confusion, chaos, and confoundedness, which construes exclusion and negativity from 'ethnic and religious' passions, yet, come in the form of terrors without compassion for differences and dissimilarities, since, we live, or exist, in a time of high taxes, political crime, famine, disease, progressive civil and human unrest, and the 'corruption' of the 'emphatic' War on Terror? The 'seeds of intention' would require every American to look within for 'volcanic reserves of passion and primal desire' to empower our effort to overcome the pressures of stereotyped roles, to engrain and discipline this fearsome power and passion, for us to put aside 'convention' and become empowered by revealing our passionate nature. Maybe, this explains the 'covert attacks and propaganda' which continues from the Consolidated Media, and is usually directed toward Barack Obama. The American People must transcend 'personality', character, family, community, and reputation, for the sky is our limit, as we must respond to celestial influences, since this helps us to remember our 'exalted' origin, since, we are consciously on our way home, in a spiritual sense. "Change we can believe in" is in our 'ninth house of adventure'. Its manifestation has nothing to do with 'false or misleading rhetoric'. Its participants do not 'misperceive, nor misunderstand' other participants; for we have eyes, why is it that we do not see? We have ears, yet, we appear not to hear, like the 'subterfuged' American homeowners-no bail out; the Bear $tearn$-a bail out; Fannie and Freddie, maybe, no bail out.
