Call in Black!


I love this "Call in Black" video.Yes, today would be a great day to "call in Black." If you can't, or even after you do, then make the Black Call. Call to our fighting, healing, building ancestors, songs, stories, so they can go with you. This is not the time to surrender or shrink.

This brutality is not new. It's allowing us to see what's been happening for decades - hidden by projections of progress and our delusions to match. We are only shedding the illusions and delusion that have kept us from touching the ordinary reality of our existence in America, and that have kept us from touching the old Afrikan, and Afrikan power within.

Feel deeply - anger, sadness, even fear. Let our tears water continue to wash away the illusions and delusions - though horrors we'll see. Let our tears water the ancient seeds of resistance and hope in us. Follow the anger and fear to their natural conclusions - power. Then you'll know what to do and when.


I'll remind you that you are not alone, have never been alone, and will never be alone. I'll remind you that we will get through this not by delusions that we are the problem, that God will change their hearts, or that God will move them out of the way. We'll get through this by realizing that God (however conceived) sent us to make a way out of no way - fighting, healing, building - like our ancestors before us.

Our actions to make this way out of no way is the evocation that will bring ancestors, culture and Spirit. This is Black Call. Let's make it.

White Images in the Black Mind - The Color of Christ and White Supremacy

Wekesa O. Madzimoyo Take a look at Roland Martin's take on the white Jesus issue. Here "To whom much is given....” This one is for my Christian family and friends who may have slipped back into the "color of Christ doesn't matter" thinking. I don't have this discussion much anymore. Dr. Yosef Ben Jochannan settled it for me 40 + years ago, and I've not looked back since. (Dr. Ben's link at the end of this post.) In fact, I've moved forward. But this post isn't about me or religion, per se, and it's certainly not about getting you to change your faith. It's more about "racial scripting" than scripture. It's about religion as a tool for white supremacy and the domination of our people - African people. It's about our believing that God's loves for us (and God's presence in us) is not dependent on us bowing to or ignoring images of white Jesus/God/angels. It's about us caring about the psycholo...

Arkansas town train school officials to carry concealed guns

By Andrew DeMillo The Associated Press Cheyne Dougan, assistant principal at Clarksville High School in Clarksville, Ark., is one of 20 Clarksville School District staff members who are training to be armed security guards on campus.( Photos by Danny Johnston, The Associated Press ) CLARKSVILLE, Ark. — As Cheyne Dougan rounded the corner at Clarksville High School, he saw three students on the floor moaning and crying. In a split second, two more ran out of a nearby classroom. "He's got a gun," one of them shouted as Dougan approached with his pistol drawn. Inside, he found one student holding another at gunpoint. Dougan aimed and fired three rounds at the gunman. Preparing for such scenarios has become common for police after a school shooting in Connecticut in December left 20 children and six teachers dead. But Dougan is no policeman. He's the assistant principal of this school in Arkansas, and when classes resume in August, he will walk the halls with a...
