These thoughts are from a post I made in a thread in tlr and the more I consider this the more complex it becomes. I see a thread in higher learning on 100 African cities destroyed by Europeans:
100 African Cities Destroyed By Europeans: WHY there are seldom historical buildings and monuments i
And I consider rosewood and black wall street and the black panther party and the assination of all our black leaders and I'm consumed with this basic question, why? So much effort on a global scale. A world that shaped me to think the most resource rich place in the world (Africa) is a country full of starving kids with flies around their face. Lately I've consumed with knowing what ultimate truth is being kept from us that so many have went through ungodly efforts to suppress..

The question I been wrestling lately is what secret is being held back from us that they seem so hellbent on holding us back from? When you consider Jim Crow and redlining and cointelpro and Iran contra and constant denial of opportunity. When you think of the constant reinforced negative stereotypes in media, why so much effort?
Every single time we reach some pinnacle of understanding. Every. Single. Time. We as a group aspire for greatness, there becomes this concerted effort to destroy it and keep us back. But why though? Why that much effort? What can be gained from that? What comfort is there in going through that much effort to hold a people back? To dehumanize them without war being the catalyst? Is there this fear of some Christ like awakening? Like somehow our collective greatness will overshadow all achievements, so therefore it's needs to be held back like some genie in a bottle. I just don't get it sometimes..
