LET'S MAKE A SLAVE!

For the record, I do not encourage nor condone slavery. AT ALL. In fact, I'm highly highly HIGHLY opposed to it.

*Sidenote: when I say black, I mean African American, with all due respect... It's just too long to type every time.

For those who don't know me: I am not black. I am Asian (Vietnamese & 1/3 Chinese). I grew up in the poor part of Atlanta where I can't even remember seeing any white faces. All of my friends were either Black, Asian, or Hispanic. I had a couple of white friends at school, but I was always drawn to black people. I grew up listening to rap, hip hop, & r&b. All of my boyfriends were black, I ate "soul food" religiously, and my, lingo if you will, was very urban. My parents never taught me anything but stay in school and be a doctor when you grow up. Everything I know I learned from the streets. I was basically raised by all of my black friends and their families.

I was and still am, very offended when people make racist comments toward African Americans. I'd probably be more offended if someone was racist towards Actor than he would be. It boils my blood. I mean, nobody ever really made racist comments toward me growing up because they know I really don't give a F$#! about what they say or think. So *shrugs*... But it really angers me when I see or hear anything racist. Makes me just wanna crack their skull open with a rusty hammer... But ANYway... *breathes* We read something that was life changing a couple of days ago and felt the need to share it with the world.

READ... READ IT THREE TIMES.

Read it the 1st time with anger. 2nd time with understanding. And third time with understanding and the mindset of change.

After reading you might even forget to come back & hear what I have to say about it, but in case you do:

It was by pure fate that we ran across this article. I mean, we were meant to receive this article...

Me and Actor bought some drinking glasses for his dad from Ikea. The next day we were on our way down south (we live in Atl, he lives about 40 minutes away) to give them to him. I've been on this Sudoku binge for about two weeks & take the book everywhere with me. Well, on that fateful day I forgot my pencil AND we forgot the glasses at home. We realize this after 15 minutes of driving of course.

On our way back home Actor's brother B-Ball calls and asks if Actor could stop by his job and pick up his check for him. Because Actor used to work there & had a semi-bad ending with them, he hesitantly agrees to do so... We arrive & drive past the security guy, who is a good friend of Actor's. He asks if we have a minute because he wants to share something with Actor. After picking up B-Ball's check we went back to the booth & his friend gave him this reading. He wrote a side note and a letter for him & everything. They used to always share unique findings with each other.

The side note said "The way you love is beautiful. Love as, love goes, no colors."

After skimming through the article we both knew that it was going to be a good read. We stopped by a Pho (Vietnamese noodle restaurant) place to get something for me, and headed to the mall to sit down & eat. Actor started reading it while I was killing the Sudoku. Every few minutes he would look up and look around. He finished & started telling me about the article and I'm like "WHOA!!! Hold up let me read it. I wanna see this for myself."

So I read. And I looked up every few minutes just like he did... Why? Because everything that he put in place is still happening right this second. And I read every sentence about 5 times each to make sure that I'm understanding what it says... And I kept looking around and seeing everything & everyone move in slow motion. It was so clear.

If some people refer to Hitler as a genius, then what is Willie Lynch? A more evil genius? I mean, what kind of person actually sits down and think of how to boost their economy by suppressing others? The killing, torturing, mind-game playing, and basically setting a system that hurts people for years & years to come. People are still hurt by it; whites and blacks the same. They are still victims to this cruel cruel plan.

That speech was made in 1712. He said his system would last for AT LEAST 300 years!!! 300 years isn't till 2012 people!!!

Look around. You see the broken families? Why? Because they set it up a lonngggggg time ago for it to be that way. They purposely made the males breed as much as they can to get more "workers", take them away from their families, make it seem like the man is worth nothing, therefore making the women depend & eat out of their white hands, boring their children to grow up and trust & depend on the white man. And the cycle starts all over again. It's some shit ain't it?

I look around today. Still happening. Almost all of my friends that have kids? Two words: baby daddies (One if you slur it all together.) And what sends me over the roof is that everyone seems to think that it's normal now. WHAT THE F$&% MAN?!!! That ain't normal!!! I dunno about others but I was raised to believe that men & women should get married and then have kids. Sure it's 2007 and the order might get mixed up a little bit, hence the kid before the wedding, but there should still BE one, you know? Call me old fashion all you want, but I am old fashion & a Christian & that's what he wants for us... Let me stop cuz this is a whole 'notha subject that I will write about later...

But yea... I look around & I see Willie Lynch's "system" EVERYWHERE and it pisses me off. Take, for another instance, the whole light skinned dark skinned battle. I have black friends in every shade possible and I love them all. My friend Nikki has sisters and they're all different shades from each other. She's darker than all of them, and her older sister is lightest. Whenever we hang out people would approach her sister 1st and catcall at her, etc... I don't get it because they're both equally attractive. And alot of my friends (male AND female) swear that they only date light or dark skinned people. I know that people have their preferences in a mate, but the shade of someone's skin shouldn't be a factor. Once again, you win Willie.

Let's not even talk about the whole Young & Old battle... No. LETS... Why do older people think that they know everything? They always seem to talk down to younger people like we don't know what the hell we're doing or talking about. Yea you have some years on us, but years don't equal knowledge. Education & experience equals knowledge. You could be 70 years old & never left the house or went to school. Do you really think that you know more than me? Nahhh buddy. You still have some grown ass 40 year old boys running around out there, while 20 somethings are becoming CEOs & millionaires... On the other spectrum, some young people are dumb too. They talk too much, party too hard, have 8 kids by 8 different women and bounce... etc etc. Older people been married for 50 years, take care of their families, and are very wise. Case in point, each person is different. WE SHOULDN'T JUDGE ONE ANOTHER BY AGE. We should, instead, help each other out. Learn stuff from each other. Build one another up instead of breaking down. Cuz if we keep doing that, at some point everyone's gonna be broke down to the bottom & the white man's gonna be looking down at all of us saying "Look at them dumbasses." "Oh well... let's hire them at minimum wage and work them harder than the other people that get paid $50/hr. and do nothing all day."

And how can I talk about battles & not mention the battles of the sexes? Classic ain't it? Men & Women. Women & Men. blah blah blah blah blah. Boy if I could count the pennies that I'd get for how many arguments that I've seen/been in... I'd be one rich little Asian girl. I think every single one of us has been in one of those fights. And for what? Damn you Willie Lynch!!! Argggg!!! I'm sure that battle's been around wayyyyy before you were born but we're on an anti- Willie Lynch post right now so you're responsible. ARGGG... Don't you hate it? The whole "You're a woman so you stay home & clean, cook, then clean up the mess that you made when you cooked, iron my drawers, throw them legs up when I get home cuz I want some, spit out my babies, and then take care of the baby while I'm sitting there playing Xbox in them drawers that you ironed for me" crap? Or the "You're a man so you gotta work all day while I go do my nails & sip cocktails, then come home & work out cuz I like my man swole, then take me shopping for 5 hours & buy me stuff that i KNOW you can't afford, then complain cuz I still didn't get that other purse that I wanted, then make strong passionate love to me allllll night cuz of course, you're not tired are you? You're a man." crap?... Yea. Enough said.

I could write 18 billion blogs about the endless battles, but I don't have the time or energy to. Maybe one day when I'm retired & worth billions of dollars so that I don't have to think about anything but massages and sunsets... Maybe one day.

I'm not too sure if I stayed on subject with the whole Willie Lynch thing. lol. Somewhere along the way I got too heated for my own good and just started throwing out views on EVERYTHING. haha... But the moral of today is, children, STOP LIVING IN THE SYSTEM. TAKE YOURSELF OUT NOWWW!!!!!! Think about it like an invisible jail. You don't see it, but you're still bounded by it. Read that article again & do something about it. The most effective way to change the world is by starting with yourself. Now go! Shoo! I have to go sip my cocktails & wait on my man to come home & take me shopping ;-p.



Thanx for reading. Until next time... Akanke
