That was cause the white folk was the majority of the population in all them wars, with an effective strategy. Going all out against the CACs with only 12% of the population and very few resources will end in disaster. Like the Native Americans. You can fight without raising a gun, cause these days weapons can wipe out entire towns in minutes. Use something more effective than a gun. Like using your money to go elsewhere.
even the non-violent actions (which were nearly all of them) of people like X --- were not passive.
No one is arguing head to head bloodshed. However, if the group who throws a brick at ur head, also has a history of burning up your little girls- you do not beg to set at their demonic table. It seems soooooo great to do that. You feel accepted and warm inside once you are let in.
Eventually you pretend that you actually accomplished some shyt --- when really all you've accomplished is to get some federal laws on the demonic oppressors
amended books and -- to allow the rest of your people to be even further brain washed by your oppressors
materialism and brain washed education. IN THE END all you really fought for was the right of your enemy to claim that he gave you rights - so you can just be happy and prosper.
Eventually, even your own people start to actually believe in and celebrate these FAKE accomplishments.
We celebrate the births of these movements in the same fashion we celebrate Columbus Day - and the masses of us do not see the SICK Irony in that shyt.
The Masses of us never stop to wonder y Rosa Parks is celebrated while the Bounty on Assata Shakurs head increases. We are allowed to spend 100% of our money in CAC stores - so we don't even care that public schools don't acknowledge Malcolm X day. The Fact that we needed to fight for those amendments and to fight for that acceptance, etc - clearly shows that , that shouldn't have even been our focus.
The world naturally progresses in modern nations. We were on our way to have institutional racism replace blatant racism Anyway. The religion of the NOI is fukking irrelevant - they had a way of fighting that was affective because it saved the minds of millions the way it saved Malcolm. Malcolm kept those principles even after he left the NOI and stopped believing in them. The real fight is internal....... BUT that shyt is war. Its still a war and we need to think of it as such.
Some of these people (from 60s) are still alive while our youth are either twerking or killing each other. There are more educated and conscious young black than ever.. but it's up to the 30 year old to do shyt right this time around....... and violence and random killing aren't gonna be used only because it may not be necessary --- NOT because it's foolish or because it's a big deal killing others for our causes. technology is advanced, it really takes no effort to murk The George Wallaces of today.
America should be very grateful the American 'negro' is passive and forgiving and not demonic like the majority
