RBG WHAT IS BLACK OPPRESSION IN AMERIKKKA.ppt, 1.5 MBWhat is Black Oppression? The suppression of people of Afrikan descent in America by the white elites from a nation, class and sex perspective from their natural self-expression, dis-allowing them to defend, define, and develop in their own image and interest
How is racism, sexism, economic exploitation defined? The shortest definition I use is: prejudice combined with socio-political power to exert it on Black people for the purpose of maintaining them as slaves to white will and intent. It is human and natural to have prejudice, but dangerous when whites in the USA, men everywhere, gentiles in most place, natives to Europe. etc. have the power to oppress others with it.
Can Blacks be racists, women be sexists etc? No, nowhere in the world do we have the socio-political power to be able to turn the power structure of the whites (or the men) upside down (not even in pockets where Afrikans hold political power such as in South Africa, Zimbabwe and Namibia).
Example: If all Blacks hated all whites, how would it affect whites? Only emotionally – fear of deserving retribution in view of the fact that the U.S. Congress won’t even consider discussing reparations for the European holocaust of Afrikan enslavement. The whites usually solve this problem by moving further out into suburbia. In the South the racism is you can get close but, nigger doesn’t get uppity (educated/knowledge of self) and in the North it’s nigger you can get uppity “educated”, just don’t get close.
On the contrary when the global white elite entertain negative feelings toward blacks, how does it affect blacks? In their access to jobs, health care, education, housing etc. All tangible things we have to go to the whites to beg for because we refuse to unite and do for self.
So blacks in the USA (or Muslim in Europe, Afrika and the so called Middle East etc.) cannot be racists since they have no power to be able to discriminate against whites in any significant way (But we certainly can have prejudice and anger, which is justified for any black being oppressed in his right mine).
How does racism manifest itself? The small racism which only a few suffer from (such as the Ku Klux Klan and the Nazis) can manifest itself in violent ways towards us. It resembles the dominative racism of the past through the declared desire to hold down black folk by “lynching, burning, tarring, feathering, boiling in oil etc”.
Yet, these hate-groups have no social power to be able to significantly hurt blacks as a group (or the Muslim or immigrants) although rare cases of random fire bombings and other barbaric acts certainly have caused much individual pain.
The big racism, which most of us suffer from, is on the other hand socio-structural and institutional. The psycho-pathology that underlies the system and business of global white supremacy is characterized by Dr. Bobby Wright’s “psychopathic racial personality” i.e. an inability to fell guilt and fear of retribution. White liberals play like they want to live up to America’s lofty democratic ideals about equality and freedom for all, but choose in reality situations, schools and living areas, to have as little as possible to do with the black and poor.
Incapable of living up to their ideals, liberals are stricken by strong guilt in the company of Blacks, they lower their eyes when we meet them in our work place, and tremble in their voice when they talk about "the race problem to those of us who want to hear their nonsense.
Through such evasive behavior we in the U.S. created the biggest ghettos the world has ever seen - just as we are now creating similar Muslim ghettos in Europe. Guilt and fear in white people (the oppressor) generate anger and hostility patterns in blacks (the oppressed). These can leads to sick behavior in blacks, which further creates fear of the white masses of Blacks. This again increases white guilt since they don't like the fact that they and their global elite partners in crime fear human beings living in conditions they created to destroy ourself esteem, self image and self concept and our humanity in the eyes of the rest of the world.
All of the above mentioned helps to increase the anger and hostility patterns in the oppressed, who as a result of their sense of total rejection often begin to strike out in self-destructive patterns-drugs, black on black violence etc.. The oppressor and the oppressed thus constantly create each other and both end up as victims, yet only the oppressor possess reel power to change this "system" unless it is overturn by physical revolution-You know, like the 13 colonies rose up against the British.
The White global elite (the oppressor), tries to disclaim all responsibility for ongoing black genocide by looking for the cause of this sad "system" in a few extreme losers such as the "Ku Klux Klan," "skinheads" etc, who feel just as shut out from "the American Dream" as blacks and have no socio-political power to hurt us In Europe particularly they always turn things upside down by calling the racism of such losers "the big racism" and rather than giving them help to get out of their distress patterns, whites frequently join associations, which legitimize violent agitation (witch hunts) against them., never confronting the real enemy (global white elite)
In reality the great decent thinking majority among us are not only oppressors of American blacks, brown and immigrants, but also hurt poor whites, who are also ghettoized into despair and hatred. And thus the vicious cycle of oppression goes on and on through human history.
What is the intropression? Due to our long term oppression, blacks (the oppressed) will internalize the oppressor and begin to believe the white lies and impress them in their own children and their fellow oppressed, propagating black self hatred, black on black violence and the generation of niggerization and pro-racist negros. So now, more frequently than not, the our most direct confrontation with the brute force and fruad of white supremacy /racism will be whiteness in black face (you own would be brotha). FTP!!!
In regards to our women, who are frequently triply oppressed (race, economic and gender wise), the most obvious problem is internalized sexism: everywhere in the world the stereotype is women are good in child rearing, in convivial gatherings and in women's magazines, at telling each other, that the woman's "natural" place is in the home, wearing a veil, not taking power away from men, etc. No oppressed group in history but Africans in America would accept its own oppression for one minute, and certainly now the oppression and exploitation of its women. Such a distress pattern have been installed us through De-Afrikanization, De-humanization and Inferioritization and it will require first and foremost the decolonization of our minds to move from oppression to liberation (crushing the power of white supremacy/racism)
Intropression is perhaps seen most strongly in American black males. Such as in "playing the dozens," a game in which we use to try to humiliate, tease and insult each other in the strongest possible way. When you are being attacked, the object is to stay "cool." If you get upset, you lose.
This cruel invalidation of each other has continued since slavery, where it apparently originated in black parents invalidations of their children in order to break down any rebelliousness in them, which could lead to their execution. Thus - in the name of love - so that they would survive - they chose to collude with their slave masters by crushing and humiliating their own children.
