racism -Hatred

I read a book once called Hatred, but  I haven't been able to find a picture of it so far, so I can't add a picture to this blog. However this story was about racism, and how it still exists in it's muted context in the 21st century.  It is good for understanding, what racism means, and the meaning of underground hatred.

It talks about things like the wind rush which brought an  influx of  different cultures to the UK, and elsewhere. This turned out to be a false promise at the time and the book explains why. It also discusses more modern phenomena like islamaphobia, and the constant discrimination often faced by new nationalities who come to the UK and other countries via Immigration.

I will try to add a book cover so you can see what it looks like, when I find an image.

Are we tired yet? nothing is changing... returning to our roots ..if we can find them

This video gives a more eloquent explanation of leaving behind inevitable tyranny and moving back to the continent. We have a few things to do  to move back we would have to adjust our selves expectations or build to accommodate our needs in a way that supports the economy and the people who live there. We have engineers here and there, architects, construction workers, planners, plumbers, electricians who can help to create these homes. We have islands that we can go to and settle in.  We must not make the mistake of going there in arrogance or superiority, but with an air of humility and gratitude that we can live there. Yes we have skills, but so do the people who already live there.  I feel like for people who have family in other nations should be looking at investing in property etc. I understand their is some challenge with this, but it can be overcome, if we understand it is for the common good. To keep us all protected and safe from a world that is aiming t

Fear for the silent victims in the long standing police brutality tale

Image
As a black female, I am remiss to mention the hidden secret side that I  can only guess many are too ashamed, frighted to bring to the light of the day. I have been blessed and fortunate to never have experienced this aspect of harassment, but as a women I  am 80% sure it exists. When i look at all the mainly black males being physically brutalised by police officers in america and sometimes in the UK, (quotes down below) there is a side of me that realises there must be silent victims who may have had to deal with a more humiliating, degrading experience with not a hero or video in sight to expose these experiences. As depressing as it is to write and think about, I  couldn't imagine this experience to be reality but I  feel that I would be remiss not to bring it to light, a black woman has sometimes been objectified by many nationalities, from slavery, through colonialism to the current day as a fascinating foreign object to be explored and exploited. i.e. you can watc

Fetishising the black body, BBC, BBB and other roles we play in them - some adult themes

Image
*this blog will have some adult themes and pictures -be warned!!  Since time began..or whenever i can't tell, WS have been obsessed, fascinated and been consumed with the black body. They have exposed, belittled, studied and revered our juicy lips, our thick hips and bottoms, our curves, our private parts and the tone of the melanin on our skin. They have objectified and classified us by our body parts, BBC and BBB, so we can see where our worth lies, and so we will accept the safety and refuge in the safety of accepting these roles. I have noticed in porn, erotic magazines and books, how the black person is still portrayed as the aggressor who uses his size, and manhood to decimate the poor innocent untainted white women. This script is so popular it literally fills the interracial portion of the adult websites. I wondered to myself why would the men be happy to portray this role so much, but then i realise it is the role that has been preselected for them because this is th
