What has changed - The Knee remains on the neck of black people -Crushed Spirits






 On May 25th 2020 George Floyd was murdered by a police officer who placed his knee on his neck and suffocated him to death. Since this tragic event, we have seen an outpouring of grief, rage and frustration as people file onto the streets to demonstrate their need for justice and fairness and yet in spite of all our efforts to end police brutality. We have since seen images which show the police have merely shrugged of this death as a mishap on the job, and have learnt nothing new about restraints and using excessive force when arresting people.They instead as i have mentioned in previous blogs, used their impotent rage and suppressed bigotry tp continue to inflict the pain on to the people in the black community.

I know that since protests have begun and in nations where white supremacy rules, we have seen those peaceful protest be infiltrated. and the narrative altered. We have seen how black men, women and children who are protesting peacefully on the front line are being brutalised even as they protest and ask for the police brutality to end. We can see with our own eyes, how futile these requests are becoming, and they are falling on ears that are not willing to listen and who don't need anything to change. Killing a black man or woman or child doesn't effect the bottom line and until it does, we will be facing this oppression,

while we are protesting in groups in these nations, our voices will be made silent, so it is time to think about placing our frustrations and passion into the new and moving away from the old. As i explained i will be posting new blogs discussing repatriation to our home countries, or picking a new one which you are willing to make home....

More videos and pictures, that i cannot add to this post, as i dont have the original links, these have all taken place since the death of Mr George Floyd.

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

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

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
