Call for black people

Power-Nowlege-Obedience

Black people we need to unite and recognize their heritage, to build a sense of community. It is a call for black people to define their own goals, to lead their own organizations. Over tha last four decades of attrition concerning our sense of community and self-preservation, there has been many active attempts to efface tha political ideologies and intellectual discourse of our revolutionary communal activists, tha likes of #HueyPNewton #StokelyCarmichael #MalcolmX #AssataShakur, #AngelaDavis #PatriceLumumba #MarcusGarvey #BobbySeale and etc. As tha torch bearers of these great political giants who fought effortlessly for tha advancement of our cause Tha emphasis of this article is explain tha beauty of self-love, self-knowledge, and mental liberation, as well as to disseminate tha truth as to why its okay to be comfortable as a #Pro Black or #ProAfrican activist for our people. Tha disconnect for many about tha term “Pro Black” is often clouded in a hail of smoke with rhetoric concerning anti-white sentiments, and ideologies that call for the respect of women as a prerequisite for being “Pro Black”.

In an effort to make light of the aforementioned realities I must present a case as to why we must not let, feminism, and or tha so called hate of white people distort our perception of this historical movement. It’s obvious that since the 60’ and 70’ this philosophy has gotten lost in its translation as an original concept that is synonymous with activism. Activism, is classified as an effort to promote, impede, or direct social, political, economic, or environmental change.Times have changed and so has tha view concerning communal preservation, as we now have individuals who use the “Pro Black” label as a means to profit, hate other races of people for the sake of hating itself, and to express their disregard for the differing views of black love while still claiming to be “Pro Black”. Tha truth is we must redefine tha concept of being “Pro Black” in relation to what #ManningMarable author of Living Black History, “How Re-imaging tha African-American Past Can Remake America’s Racial Future”, explains as an intellectual intervention. Tha founding ideology of “Pro Black” as a side caricature of Black Power reemphasizes tha notion to keep the self-determination for people of African and black decent alive. “Pro Black” as a general concept means not being feminist, ridding our consciousness of European teachings, learning about the past historical movements and the current (Black Lives Matter Ideologies), as well as the promotion and peace towards one another.Various renditions of this political ideology exist but that shouldn’t interfere with this powerful strategy, concerning tha removal of tha oppressive chains that have been placed on the consciousness of individuals of color. Noted Black Psychologist #NaimAkbar and pioneer in tha development of an African-centered approach to modern psychology explains that “it is important to understand as a primary rule that tha restoration of African consciousness is a process that must be accomplished by African people”.

We as a people must see to it that we help aid in tha advancement of new social institutions, systems of accountability, and in this new era of self-preservation. This new era of self-preservation is about explaining that’s its okay to be “Pro Black”, and to embrace tha many differing opinions that exist on this subject matter. Is it not okay to disagree and have differing opinions on matters that speak to our own personal growth and intellectual development as a race of people? I think we can all agree to tha fact we must eliminate tha excuses that hinder tha unapologetic love for our black heritage, and tha self-preservation and our 400 years of extraordinary accomplishment here in America. It was #GeorgeWashingtonCarver, tha chemist who discovered 325 uses for tha peanut that said “Ninety-nine percent of all failures comes from people who have a habit of making excuses”. So, it isn’t enough to point and blame those small pockets of our people who have hidden agendas, and represent their own self-interest. Now that we understand that those realities exist let’s focus on tha broader issues concerning our future generations. It is okay to be “Pro Black” and within your own power that helps to advance the social, economic, and political agenda, regardless of tha level of consciousness you are representing within tha movement. It is okay to say that you are “Pro Black” even if you carry a narrow minded view of its ideology. In moving forward, we must become egalitarians in terms of our belief in tha social and economic equality of all people everywhere, but first with an emphasis towards our communal development. In lieu of tha aforementioned discussions tha time has come for us as (Black Men) to continue in support of tha advancement of our communal preservation and spiritual enlightenment. Regardless, of our spiritual or religious ideologies we must heed to tha call towards tha architectural development of our own social institutions. It’s time to do tha work and creatively find ways to pool our physical, mental, and intellectual capital, in order to create a world that our for-bearers realized and could see but wasn’t given access to enter into too. We are currently living our history and must organize in order to remove the hand of the oppressor out of our minds.
