Man,Know Thyself.

And,to the Western” To Thy Own Self Be True “.Are at the Apex of first the Kemetic (Egyptian) understanding of knowing who you are, and your place in the Circle of Life.Simularly swore attributed  to Islam and. The Judeao-Christians Isaiah statement “My People Perish For Lack Of Knowledge”.The Greek’s “I Think Therefore I  AM ” every culture since the dawn of history the value of self-knowledge has been the saving factor at the core of  the survival of the people of  any group.By the same token;if you are a  person the blood within you is a direct path to your origin.This is true genetically,historically,and spiritually.Fortunately there are other factor that identify us that coincide with geological and historical factors. Also the color of our skin indicates the origin of  our being 

 So we see the question of Race is a query of Spirituality, Genetics, Geography, and History. For the purpose of this discussion on Racism we can separate these factor into two distinct category;The Darkness,and The Light. Not only are these the basic elements that separate us, as human beings, but they are  also the elements which give order to the Universe. They are the determinants of time and space, and have been obedient              to their purpose since there beginning, this is a  elemental truth that can not be disputed.Unlike  the human counterpart of Night and Day, the darkness and the light of humanity are in great conflict.The reason being that one chose to invade the geological space of the other and has sought to gain  and maintain through violence dominance over the other.

   I am very much concerned with the case of the Man who abducted the child held her hostage conceived children with her , did a stint in prison  while maintaining dominance even while allowing her at times to see her family. After a period of time she lost free will  and identity of self.It has been  described as a very heinous crime to say the least. Also he is requesting to see his children. I would compare this case as a microscopic view of  the  case of slavery.The abduction of Africans from their homeland,the imposition white genetics upon black women the murder of millions of black men woman and children.Two hundred years of legally sanctioned terror, followed by one hundred and fifty years of  physical, phycological.and systematic terror and to a much greater degree the victims have lost their free will and knowledge of self. We the victims a generational Helsinki Syndrome suffer a from a gross mental illness,to the point where most of us can only identify with our captor. I am sure that this analysis will mark me as a Racist by Whites but more surprising many Blacks. Both should under-stand that the first thing that White people did in every case of capture or conquer was to destroy the identity of their victims. Man,Know  Thyself

This is a blog that discusses Racism and all it’s parts.My experience in the area of racial discussions have led me to the conclusion that you can not hold an honest and factual discussion about Racism without being labeled a Racist yourself.I am an unemployed black man born in Chicago on the south side in the fifties,raised in the sixties.incacerated in the seventies,Drugged in the eighties,hustled in the nineties,but in this new millenium I’ve  been awakened. I do not have much a formal education,but where I am lacking in this area I make up for in natural intelligence. I am well read and have been known to turn a phrase. Also I have deep love of  History and Sociology and herein lies  my basis for debate. I challenge the most educated scholars and theologians on the subject of discussion that tears at the very fabric of our system of understanding.What is Racism and the Origin of it’s Meaning?
