BBW 11: OCCUPY YOUR BLACKNESS (And You Will Find Everything)!

    Are you a Part-time Revolutionary or a Full Time Afrikan!?! A part time revolutionary is better than nothing but we need more full time Afrakans in our come-unity! The problem is everybody else is being full time themselves, but we're only being part time ourselves! We are so distracted with American Dreams and fighting other people's fights that we have no chance of winning our own battles; and we wont until we give them our full attention and energy! The racists are working overtime! And our integration into disintegration has us hardly working!
    It's great that the OCCUPY WALL STREET movement against corporate greed and destruction is waking the rest of the world up to a battle that we've been fighting for thousands of years! And although we should encourage them we cannot be overly distracted from OCCUPYING BLACK WALL STREET and OCCUPYING BLACKNESS; wherein is our strength!
    Let me give you an overview of some of the various ways we've been [integrated and disintegrated] since the 60s by fighting other people's fights! Some of us joined the Flower Power Movement, white people revolting against their parents! But when it was over they went back to work for Wall Street and their parents, a luxury we didn't have! Sistars joined the Women's Feminist Movement, only to run into the same racism and discrimination they were getting from men! What is more important your gender or your people? Your genitalia or your people?
    Some of us joined the Gay Rights Movement and are presently in the streets fighting for homosexuals to have the same rights as heterosexual to marry. But that same greco-roman culture is trying to kill you! And what's more important your sexual orientation or saving black people from extinction? We also got little ol' black ladies on the streets giving it up for the Jehovah Witness Movement. We got folks who have shunned their blackness for the Christian Movement which is being used as white supremacy disguised as religion! We got Afrikans deblakified in the Muslim Movement which is being used as Arab Supremacy disguised as religion! We god black Buddhists chanting "Nam myo ho renge kyo!" a thousand times a day, when they should be having Afrikan words and causes on their lips! We got Afrakans chanting for the Hare Krishna Movement and we even have blacks trying to blend into the Mormon Movement! When the fact of the matter is all of these movements are empowering people, races and cultures that are anti-Afrikan and raping and pillaging our communities world wide! For this reason and the fact that are communities are backsliding into an abyss should be enough for us to drop out of these movements and into our Blackness full time! Not to mention that THE GODS DON'T NEED YOU BUT YOUR PEOPLE DO! If your house is on fire do you pray to Jesus or Allah to put the fire out, do you go to college to learn how to extinguish flames, do you inquire if the fire is sexist or homophobic or do you man up and put the fire out yourself! The Black House is on fire!
    Which reminds me, there is another form of integration that is one of my least favorite...and that is the College/University System which takes our brightest young minds and entangles them with nonsense and holds them hostage away from their communities for years before spitting them back out into the same jobless market that was there before but presently shackled with thousands of dollars of debt! And in the meantime all their homies are dead and gone, the sisters are turned out, a freeway has been run through the community, gentrification is everywhere, they've taken Harlem and the Filmore and all the Little Afrikas and they're still raping, pillaging and bombing Mama Afraka! Who? These people who you are praying with and being taught by and giving your money! Yes, even that little black church in the hood is being siphoned of it's coins and must pay the Big Daddy Church in the Vatican!
    And some of us are diluted and incapacitated by several of these movements at the same time! But what can a Gay Rights Christian Feminist Harvard Alpha Phi YT Republican Communist/Capitalist Gangster Rapper brother or sister do for black people! When will s/he ever have time to be black!
    Your Blackness has been in the world for millions of years, it carries certain information, wisdom, music, logic, magic, vibrations and rhythms of life that others cannot fathom. Close your eyes and you will be in and see the same blackness where every Messiah found his mojo! Occupy your Blackness and you will find everything...including God and Paradise! I promise you! And I guarantee it or your life back!
