A clear example of being "Helddown" (257 hits)

The charity shows always choose Africa as an example of poverty. I've seen the same people starving for over forty years now. They are still talking about the lack of water. Where are the drills,the plows, and trackers that bring about real change. Why are they still living in straw huts instead of constructing more stable structures. The only changes you will notice is that they are wearing old clothes that Americans have thrown away. I guest these visions of africa have to remain the same so that black people will continue to reject their heritage.

Those Visions are not the right Visions.

The Holddown is:
Our tax dollars have been used to create and maintain division which causes many areas to look like Decadent, impoverished, lawless areas---
inner cities throughout America.

Our tax dollars have feed ignorance-in 1980 we bombed a rich African nation whose leader had worked to develop A United States of Africa.
Libya

Our tax dollars and Save the Children charities smuggled weapons to a fertile African nation so that an ethnic minority could divide a strong nation.
Sudan

Our tax dollars armed one strong African nation against another strong then changed sides on both to maintain madness.
Somalia and Ethiopia

Our tax dollars and American greed funded the illegal diamond trade in the strong African nations to Divide them.
Sierra Leone, Liberia, Congo and Rwanda

Our tax dollars are the key to those Visions that the news media gives us, so that We will stay away from our people.

American Democracy though has given us a Son of Africa,
Our Leader Baraka Hussein Obama to effect Change in our relationships.

Hello Ms. Lofton,

You said this, “I guest these visions of africa have to remain the same so that black people will continue to reject their heritage.”

Ms. Lofton, apparently you feel that Black Americans who are descendents of slaves are entitle to something out of Africa. Ms. Lofton, Black Americans has nothing in Africa, tangible or intangible.

Black Americans originated on this continent. Black Americans are a new breed or race of people that has emerged out of the ashes of slavery. What we are entitled to as our heritage is a portion of this continent that we could call our very own country with borders to pursue life, liberty, happiness and prosperity in our own way. In other words, a portion of this continent is ours and we are going to inherit our portion not too far in the distance future.

Again, Ms. Lofton, Black Americans has nothing in Africa to go back to or to look forward to. Africans and Black Americans are two entirely different people.

Question me if you would like to know more, other wise tell me what you think.

Hello Robert,

You said this, “American Democracy though has given us a Son of Africa,
Our Leader Baraka Hussein Obama to effect Change in our relationships“.

I have repeatedly asked you what will be the situation after President Obama leaves office. You have avoided answering this question and that is because you cannot think.

We know that it is a practice that incoming American presidents changes the policies of the outgoing presidents. Therefore, my question is legitimate and sensible. What will happen after President Obama leaves office? You said that our leader Barack Hussein Obama to effect changes in our relationship, so what would happen when the incoming president overturns President Obama’s so-called changes.

What say you?

Harry, harry, harry,
Again I told you that Intelligent Sane Americans will reelect Our Leader Baraka Hussein Obama in 2012-2016--
In 2016, Intelligent Sane AMericans will elect Governor Deval Patrick as President of the United States of America.
2020----? I may bite the dust any day now, so 2020 is stretching it for me.---

Hello Robert,

What I am trying to show you about yourself is that you do not have a solution that would permanently cause Black Americans to become sovereign people or have complete independence from White America on a portion of this continent that we could call our very own country with borders.

In other words, as a Black American myself I am excited when Black Americans could swear in office our own president of our own country.

You do not seem to understand that Black Americans could do a lot better for themselves if they were sovereign people in their own country with borders.

It is not registering in your head the country that Mr. Obama is president of belongs to White American people. Am I right or am I wrong?

Tell me what you think.

YOU ARE WRONG!

I am sovereign.
I know that America; before Our Leader President Baraka Hussein Obama was a LIE.
I know that Our Leader did not have a slaveAncestry.
I know that 40 years ago I reverted to AlIslaam; the belief of my Ancestors.
I know that I am not defined by europeanChristians.

Again-there is no such thing as blackamerican----there is American.

thats what I know

And if I may add: Wrong, the country that Mr. Obama is President of does not belong to White Americans. This is 2009 Harry.

Hello Mr. Robert,

Firstly, Mr. Robert, our dialogue is broader than you and President Obama, since you keep reverting to yourself and President Obama. The dialogue is about the present and future status of 41 million Black Americans living in the United States.

Leading off the dialogue, I asked you a direct question. The question is, does the real estate of the United States belongs to White American people as opposed to the Chinese, Japanese, Africans, Armenian etc. immigrants living in the United States?

In other words, which race of people in the United States owns the real estate of America as opposed to which people owns the real estate of France.

It is not a difficult question to answer and once you give an answer we will have a better picture of understanding this statement of yours, “Again-there is no such thing as blackamerican----there is American.”

We know that somebody must own the real estate of America just as we know that the Chinese people own the real estate of China. We know as well that the French people own the real estate of France. So let us pinned down who do you believe owns the real estate of America?

Tell me what you think.

Hello Steve,

Okay, you said this, “And if I may add: Wrong, the country that Mr. Obama is President of does not belong to White Americans.”

Okay, if America does not belong to the White American people, then what race of people do the real estate of America belongs, is it the emigrants?

Tell me what you think.
