What they fear is that the revolutionary nationalist will engage in the same savagery that has marked the European’s “national conquest”. They fear a reverse “Manifest Destiny” or the brown-black version of the “White Man’s Burden”.

Post this link the next time a settler starts getting buck around the concepts of self-determination. The only place I feel this article falls short is that it makes very little mention of our Indigenous comrades, who in many respects, have been dealt a much harsher hand in comparison to what we've gone through. Things that comrades here have given me pause on; with regard to concepts like the Black Belt Republic being a practical nonstarter given that's not even the settler's land, that was always someone else's.

While I see actual Panafricanism as a viable road for Black comrades, in Amerika at least, we can't forget that we're not the only ones wronged here; and any liberation we reach means nothing if it's not together with the other colonized subjects-of-empire on this landmass, is where I want to get off this soapbox.

Not gonna bullshit, I only really came here(to this song) for Three Stacks.

Who gonna weep when these coppers die?

Who gonna weep when these coppers die?

Classic beat afaic. When the Creator stops fuckin around and calls me home, the first thing I'm doing is picking up that new Dilla and DOOM release.

I'm betting in the next couple weeks, someone's gonna try this over the MOVE bombing too, and I'll still be in the same state of fuckin' facepalm. Just once, I'd like to see the settlers own up to the fuckery they committed with their whole chests, like "Yeah, we did that; and it was fuckin wrong"-- but I'm not holding my breath.

This country will fall, balkanize, and fall again before the settlers admit any culpability.

Imagine flowing this effortless for a solid hour. Couldn't be me. Bout to sound mad oldhead... But I miss battle rap like this, even for all the experimental avant-garde acts I listen to nowadays. (A lot of the reason I like Peggy so much, I think)

How we gonna have a peggy community here and not use it to back up links to director's cut uploads?

While what [Morant] did is not illegal in the state of Tennessee, that is not the authority under which this penalty comes. The NBA Players Association collectively bargained to give the league a great deal of latitude to discipline players for conduct “unfavorable” to the league. This is a dog whistle clause that really means the conduct scared the hell out of the predominant white fan base.

This Ja Morant incident should be a salient, timely reminder that the only reason that the NRA even formed in the first place was as a check to the Panthers. Keep arming up. Keep learning your tools. The settlers getting the HOA scared out of them is immaterial to our own liberation; and in this country, power grows out of only one thing.

This has actually been something weighing on my mind for a long time now. You talk about leaving, trying to get to Cuba, or Venezuela, or Colombia, or insert a nation you'd roll bones on being better than Amerika; and here comes a paternalistic cracker on their redwinged blackbird dive-bombing shit "you know they're racist as shit, yeah? you know they don't like Blacks over there, yeah? you know you're better off right here ~~where we can keep our thumb on you~~ yeah?"

Next time the mayonnaisians hit you with that, just ask one simple question: "How are you any better? How is your nation any better?" Because it really ain't.

If you can afford to cut a check right now, there's proper Black socialists staring down the barrel of carceral slavery; hit their legal fund. Or if not theirs, hit the ATL Solidarity Fund.

"...Well, well, well. The party that we were supposed to align with to stop nuclear war comes right out and answers the question I asked in my article and in the video that Blumenthal posted on Twitter to claim I was saying something I was not, and that question was: 'Let’s say nuclear war is avoided by this rally, will these people fight with us to end the oppression of marginalized people? No.'"

"NO THEY WILL NOT. The Libertarian Party will NOT fight with us to end the oppression of marginalized people, because as I made clear in the original article and as the LP itself has made clear over and over again and once more for good measure on April 13, they will oppress people when they have the power to do so!"

One day, we'll learn that the master's kids will not tear down the master's plantation.
