Interference

A huge part of white supremacy and white culture is about interfering in the affairs of black people.

PTSD & well produced radio programming - (20 min. Must hear)

Heard this powerful story a month ago on the radio outside of St. Louis. The author/interviewer (Kotlowitz) did a clever, though simple thing here, by wondering if the effect of urban violence was comparable to the trauma that a person experiences from war. Kotlowitz talks to a military vet from Afghanistan and a guy from Philadelphia who’s lived in some pretty bad neighborhoods to find out if they are doubles of some sort.  It is well mixed and edited.  Starts at minute 33:30.  You WILL be hooked if you start this 25 min story.  Teachers, this is an excellent prompt on POLICY and SOCIETY effect on young modern human men (i.e. how are these two kids doubles and how are the NOT).

Brandon & Curtis ARE doubles...up to a point.  Please comment.

Just like...

“The gun “accidentally” went off. The killer is “coincidentally” white. The dead woman is “unfortunately” black. These murders “oddly” keep happening. It’s all an “accident”, a “coincidence”, “unfortunate”, like slavery & Jim Crow & the KKK & the prison industrial complex & racist drug laws & police brutality.”

Established Falsehood

"...I could not shake the image of the destroyed Biko from my mind: an unwary seeker after knowledge, eager to reveal what he was discovering on his own.  He had run into a wall of prejudice dressed up as expert knowledge, armed with the lethal power to destroy any seeker straying off the brightly lit highways of established falsehood.
   Orthodox scholars in authority called ancient Egyptian linkages with Africa controversial.  A code word meaning unacceptable, used by those who still felt they needed to be polite in their hostility.  Those laboring under no such scruples, feeling they could speak their prejudices with no fear of disavowal from anyone with power over them, called the linkages arrant nonsense."
