Typical white racist duplicity. Their cops kil us, bue we're supposedly the ones with the hate. WHITES created segregation, and INDEED racial stratification to begin with. But racism is the fault of the Blacks. These white racists remind you of the Nazis. They hated and screwed the Jews, but claimed it was the Jews who hated and screwed them.

Yeah, and I imagine by your logic the Jews were the most racist In Nazi Germany. Typical white racist duplicity--project your evilness on others.

Most pople in Topix---black, white and other- spend their time making trivial comments, and usually about trivial subjects. They are masters of trivia, and mistresses of mediocrity. How many are even AWARE of what the Supreme Court did to the Voting RIGHTS Act? Do they even think about the implications of that militarized police in Ferguson (and elsewhere) which resemle gestapos more so than just ordinary cops?

If we were subjected to genocide many Americans would be saying that the few of us who survived are lying or delusional. Come to think of it, that's what some say about the European Holocaust. It didn't happen. Jewish leaders are just saying that it. Sartre was RIGHT. While the primary target of racism may vary from country to country, the delusional thinking and lying are pretty much the same. "we didn't REALLY massacre the Armenians, They're just saying that" insist the Turks "We're not really abusing or oppressing the Blacks" say many whites. "They just need to lighten up and get rid of their "victim mentality". Who knows? We may hear that Michael Brown shot himself with Officer Wilson's gun----like this family friend of an older cousin who shot himself in the back six times while under detention of Frank Rizzo's pigs in Philly.

INDEED. For while power is not identical with justice, you cannot have justice without power. But that is a different matter than diversity. The Black Freedom Movement fought segregation as a system of injustice, a flagrant and degrading imposition of white racist power upon the Black people. But one of the reasons that the Black Power Movement emerged was the realization that the vanquishing of De Jure segregation (De Facto segregation never ended completely) did not automatically result in freedom and justice for the Black people, and that without empowerment (surtout self-determination), the social miseries and oppressions would simply continue under another guise.

I think it's important to read as much as possible the classics of Africana thought and literature. That would help keep us grounded. But that doesn't mean that we should neglect the study of other works as well. I don't think it's an either/or. I can read Fanon and Hegel, Cabral and Marx, Toni Morisson and Jane Austen, Richard Wright and Dostoyevsky. No problem. But at least be grounded in some Black classics. Some to think of it, I'd advise folk to familiarize themselves with Black Classics Press, a publication group founded and run by Paul Coates, former leader of the Black Panther Party in Baltimore
