Irma:

This is what you are talking about. It shows the need for better education.

Harry Watley Wednesday, May 19th 2010 at 5:14PM

Hello to All,

The children that were tested and the results revealed on CNN is not a case of mis-education or insufficient education. Those children know what is happening, both Black and White children. Those children are innocent now. However, when they grow up they begin to play the games that we adults are presently playing that there is not a problem.

If the same test was given to the children of Israel’s children and the Egyptian’s children 4000 years ago the results would have been exact the same. The children are not stupid. The adults are in denial.

The only permanent solution is that Black Americans become a sovereign people on the portion of this continent, as the Exodus was the only permanent solution to the problems between the Egyptians and Israelites 4000 years ago, am I right. The sovereignty of Black Americans will not be delayed or prevented. It is a divine thing. I know what I am talking about, as Moses knew what he was talking about, okay.

HARRY, HARRY, HARRY...you just don't get it do you?

Cynthia Merrill Artis Wednesday, May 19th 2010 at 8:31PM

Rich exactly.... that's why it is so important for parents to involve them selves in their children's education. My son can go to any private school free --- But I don't want to ... Now trust me if his school was a school with violence and racisim... all that kind of stuff it would be totally different... BUt I have come across some of the best teachers my son could have ... that encourage him....

and most certainly instutionalized racisim is a reality.... but well let me shut up.... My son goes to a predominately black school.... the percentage of minorities and whites are so limited... But my son receives the best education... and he gets the opportunity to see people like him... and what he can grow up to be....

If you are happy with the quality of his education, then that is the important thing.

It is his education that will lift him.

Cynthia Merrill Artis Wednesday, May 19th 2010 at 10:16PM

Thank you.... as an instructor... your advise is appreciated

Harry Watley Wednesday, May 19th 2010 at 10:38PM

Hello Siebra,

Well, are you for or against the sovereignty of Black Americans on a portion of this continent that we could call our very own country with borders?

Now, if we were a sovereign people would there be any need for these color bias tests of these children as revealed on CNN?

Tell me what you think.

the test should note, christian children ----

there were no Muslim Children interviewed.

Harry Watley Thursday, May 20th 2010 at 10:49AM

Hello Robert,

The tests had nothing to do with religion. So it did not matter whether the children were Christians, Muslims or Buddhists. The tests had to do with bias, racism, prejudice and the subjugation of Black Americans in White America.

The Holy Quran have not a solution for Black Americans since all that is in the Quran is about the Arabian people, am I right. Some of us are so smart that we are so dumb not to be able to see common sense as you are, am I right.

What do you think?

Siebra Muhammad Thursday, May 20th 2010 at 10:59AM

Harry, the pot cannot call the kettle black. How can you tell someone about being bias when you are being bias yourself?

Harry Watley Thursday, May 20th 2010 at 11:04AM

Hello to All,

All of you are expressing some sort of sadness, dismay or despair, yet you all turn a dumb mind to do things I have long been saying.

For instance, Cynthia says, “and most certainly instutionalized racisim is a reality.…” Is this not a statement of despair?

Siebra screens, “Harry, Harry and Harry” yet she will not heed the things I say.

Ms. Irma says, “I had to just turn off my tv----I have had it...It is long pass time at least for me to at least start to be honest with myself about how we are truely our own worst enemy.” Is not these comments expresses sadness, dismay and despair, yet this woman would not heed the things I have been saying.

Why are Black Americans this way? It is obvious that we, as a people, need divine helping, am I right.

Tell me what you think.



Harry Watley Thursday, May 20th 2010 at 10:49PM

Hello Siebra,

Give me an example or a reference of when I was biased that would back up your accusation, okay.

What say you?

Cynthia Merrill Artis Friday, May 21st 2010 at 2:35AM

Harry I will say yes... it is disturbing that schools will not teach the real truths about slavery, freed slaves, civil rights..... But also, I have the ability to teach my son about our peoples' suffering, sorrow and pain....

Harry Watley Friday, May 21st 2010 at 8:27AM

Hello Cynthia,

Yes, you do have the ability to teach your son about our people’s suffering, sorrow and pain.

However, it will be non-affective since we are not a sovereign people in a country of our own. In the long run, it will cause hostility and problems with the establishment unless we become a sovereign people on a portion of this continent that we could call our very own country with borders.

In addition, my original point was your statement of despair when you mentioned institutionalize racism to Richard.

It beats the life out of me why you all do not desire to become a sovereign people on a portion of this continent that you could call your very own country when God is offering this permanent solution to you.

Tell me what you think.

Rich, after seeing only put downs by our people, excuses and finger point about the ills of our Black community on this site, I had to just turn off my tv as tonight AC 360 is going to onec again try and help get some constructive help to our race, I have had it...It is long pass time at least for me to at least start to be honest with myself about how we are truely our own worst enemy. ("I" am not smiling)

and, my nest few blogs will be about trying to be a mirror on our community it is long time taht we move on from what those on the right are doing only using these feel good talking points like human parrots. (smile)

Remember what you said about giving your grandchild 'tough love"..sometimes it is best not to even try to be the 'best friend' of our people we love. (smile)

Rich, as you know how much I actually idolize R.M...I had to turn from her interview with Rand Paul a few hours ago...it is no longer time to play these head games now, our country's welfare is a stake. (smile)

ROBINSON IRMA Thursday, April 10th 2014 at 6:47PM

robert, I doubt if like me not beling pset as a Buddhist, I doubt if my friend who is a Sikh is upset...btu guess what, right at this moment I am listen to Newt G in and interview with Gretta S. over on fox about what a shame that we have moved on when we had prayer in schools at graduations...now as a people as we are with so many freedoms, N.G has all the rights in the world to want to like Rand Paul and the teaparty to want to return to those good old days...but then if we did this we could not have a Dr. King day or a whole month and ot just a week for black history studys or women month or no females as cieos or in congress, ect. me I pass on this (smile)

althiut I full respect that we also would not have a Black president either.hell you would probable be hung before me as they had no reason to fearme a black christian, right?!? lol

ROBINSON IRMA Thursday, April 10th 2014 at 6:47PM

"BLACK BY NATURE, PROUD BY CHOICE" (SMILE)

ROBINSON IRMA Thursday, April 10th 2014 at 6:47PM

Thank you so much my brother. "OUT OF THE MOUTH S OF BABYS"..."WE ARE OUR CHILDREN'S FIRST ROLE MODELS AS THEIR CARE TAKERS, PARENTS, SOCIALIZERS, ECT.

AND YET WHILE WE SHOULD BE TEACHING THEM TO BE PROUD OF WHO THEY ARE, WE DO JUST THE OPPOSITE!!!!! AND, EVEN WORST WE ARE SO PROUD OF DOING THIS. ("I" AM NOT SMILING)
