How Far Will White America
Let Trump Go?

 


"Anti-Black, Anti-Muslim, Anti-Native folk, Anti-Asian,
Anti-Latino, Anti any woman with a mind and body of
her own - these are the philosophical cornerstones
of Trump’s 21st Century Neo-Confederacy."


Once upon a time called right now . . . !

A century from now, the historians will describe this era of the Black American experience, say roughly 1980 thru 2020 as a “critical” moment on the timeline. During the 80’s blatant racism of the previous century-long “Jim Crow” era had supposedly been checked - white folks didn’t openly refer to blacks as “boy,”” “gal, “coon” nor Jigaboo. Virtually no “Colored Only” signs remained hung anywhere . . . but in White folks minds. The battle was “Institutional Racism”- more subtle bigotry interwoven into the day-to-day operations of life in America: The “good” “decent” white man, Jimmy Carter, a peanut farmer from Georgia had been unseated by the first guy who said they’d “take back America and make it white again,” Ronnie “666” Ray-gun.

The “Reagan Revolution” culminated when “King” Trump and the well-dressed white gangster traitors stole power back. Trump is the extreme overreaction to a Black man as President. The “revolt” had life injected back into when Barack Obama was sworn in as #44. inflamed white “backlash,”

What time is it?!

Now, as Trump is beating the hell out of the Democrat Party’s goody two-shoes opposition, Nancy, Chuck and all the good intentioned moderate Liberal establishment types are content to show-up at the “Okey-Dokey” Corral gunfight again Trump and’ his boys . . . holding not a peacekeeper but instead a “harshly- worded” email in their hand.

These spineless and delusional White folks have the destiny, the fate of the Black American empire in their hands . . . we, as a people ought to be scared to death.

Why?

Vice President Joe Biden has said it . . . “ Trump and his boys, Trump’s millions of supporters deeply yearn to restore “Jim Crow” laws, if not, if not I say - as Joe said - “put black folks back in chains.” For some reason we don’t believe him. Why not?

If he could, the Grand Pooh-Bah Trump would put Barack Obama in chains.

Here we sit on that timeline: roughly 400 years of perpetual hell on earth, enslaved for multiple generations, then placed on the edges of society as 4th class semi-citizens for about a century. Defending a nation in world wars . . and still regarded as “worthless unwanted niggers.

Today, 50 years past the civil rights/Black Power era we find ourselves still dwelling in an hostile land - our churches are still being burnt to the ground, we’re still the “last hired and the first fired”, while the police still “shoot first” and “ask questions never if they aren’t forced to” . . .” Corporate America’s glass ceiling is still intact - despite the Talented Tenth efforts to walk, talk, dress and think as Ivy League white as we can, assimilate and accommodate our asses off - twist as Obama did into a pretzel trying to appease and please mainstream white America . . . it just hasn't worked.

Donald Trump is the horrific proof.

White America - based on anger, fear. well earned and quite justifed paranoia, anger, envy, and once again more even more anger has installed a communist dictator’s “hand-puppet”, a “B-list” 2nd tier TV celebrity as “king” of White America.” A pawn, who’s simply “white trash with money” but most importantly - he’s racist, sexist, soul-less aristocratic elitist. Nevertheless, as long as he’s congratulating bigoted NFL gridiron gladiators like Nick Bosa, and denigrating Black Power symbols like Colin Kaepernick . . . isultng Black women like Congresswoman Maxine Waters and calling Congresswoman Kamalah Harris a “nasty” woman . . .

The new “Trumpian Party”,” the party of a unindicted co-conspirator . . . will prodly “stand by“ their despicable leaders - and his pal Vladdy Putin - before they side with Americans-of-color. That’s the truth and you know it!

Caucasian Tribalism defeats American brotherhood! Who knew?

At this point in the timeline it’s clear White America has abandoned the idealistic aspirations of the US Constitution and Bill Of Rights, and instead embraced White privilege and supremacy. They’ve turned their backs on the “high n’ mighty” minded notion of “Kumbaya” and “We are the world” - instead at Charlottesville they lite the tiki-torches and declared to the nation . . . the Ku Klux Klan lives! in the hearts and minds of most White men - the KKK isn’t merely a sketch on Stone Mountain as a visual of home-grown white sheeted terrorists - the Klan is a mindset, a mentality and perspective which reigns from sea to shining sea, from the snow-capped mountains of Colorado to the waters of Chesapeake Bay to Mobile Bay, down in the heart of Ol’ Dixie,

Anti-Black, Anti-Muslim, Anti-Native folk, Anti-Asian, Anti-Latino, Anti any woman with a mind and body of her own - these are the philosophical cornerstones of Trump’s 21st Century Neo-Confederacy.

Dig this: the USA is White Nationalism personified. As is Australia and New Zealand. As was South Africa - the physical results of European Colonialism.

What time is it!?

At this point in the story of Black America - “What are we going to do?”

What are “we” black people going to do? No, not what are white folks going to do for us, but rather what are we going to do for ourselves, for our children’s children?

Black America, hear me! “Ask not what white folks can do for us, but instead what can we do for ourselves . . .” because, most of white America could give a damn about us. We had better take control of our destiny, before “fate” takes-a-hand.

Black Power! Black Power! Black Power! Sometime today, throw that fist high up in the air and say, loud n’ proud . . . Power to the people !!! Seize the time!
