I have a question for the intelligently heavy hitters.
Africans were brought to this continent approximately 500 years ago. White American people bought these African people from the slave traders with English money, pounds and shillings.
This legal business transaction meant that those African people became the livestock property of White America or the old slave master. You all remember that the late Alex Haley ancestors were registered in Mr. Reynolds journal with the other livestock animals. Therefore, I know you understand what I am saying.
We know those White American men, bred themselves with the African slave women to increase the slave population and for their personal pleasure as well. But nevertheless, their actions produced a people such as us today, Black Americans, who are descendents of slaves. Now, naturally Black Americans who are descendents of slaves are a new breed of race of people that has emerged out of the ashes of slavery because of the breeding process I mentioned. Therefore, we are not Africans or Caucasians.
Now, my question is this. How do American Blacks legally undo belonging to the slave masters’ children today? In other words, everything that the old slave masters owned naturally his descendents inherit their forefathers’ processions, which includes American Blacks, who are descendents of slaves, am I right?
Therefore, did the Emancipation Proclamation mean that American Blacks legally do not belong to White American people any longer? On the other hand, did the recent apology by the White American people in Congress means they no longer legally own us?
Again, my question is that, how do you set an entire race of people free, while we still resides in the jurisdiction of White America, who supposedly have set us free?
So, are Black Americans free, completely independent and sovereign people, but without a country that would legitimize our sovereign freedom?
Now, could anyone please help me resolve my problem, which has been mentally tossing me back and forth?
As you all know, I have an IQ of 68. I barely passed the threshold of being legally considered retarded, while all of you are well above average intelligence.
What say you?
Listen...Overall as a people we have access to the same resources and privileges as any other person that resides in America, for us even more so. It is 2009 no one can stop you from accessing the information that you need to get ahead in this life. What you do from this point in your life is totally up to you. I personally chose to get an education, completing that requirement opened up so many doors for me and not necessarily in America the International community values that more than you know. Africa is where our ancestors came from, but it is currently in a state of turmoil you need to do your research to understand. I just read a few articles about the state of the Congo. The news shocked me beyond comprehension so because we are so far removed from our Mother country, yet living in a country that was not built for us my suggestion is this make the best out of your situation if that means that you must eventually leave the country and find a place where you are happiest then so be it. Last point always be happy in your own skin then it doesn't matter where you are or what people say about you
