Let us get rid of all forms of racism and our false illusions of superiority. People are dying now. All of us should get involved and have the courage of our convictions.

    Dear Sista-have two comments flowing from your powerful lecture/presentation, after extending my thanks and gratitude for everything you said, and the way you said what you said! In respect to your comments on what is reputed to be the 1963 March On Washington. Based on my studies, there was a Blackman who was the President of the AFL-CIO, at the time the largest service union in the United States, was responsible for the enormous amount of support from working folks who viewed King's human rights demonstrations right in line with the labor unions fight for higher wages, and other necessary benefits for Blacks, and all other Americans. The last comment, again on the late Dr. King is the due airing of just why he was so insistent on going very far, after being warned away, to defend the rights of the endangered Black garbage men: a number of Black protesting garbage men had been murdered, crushed to death in the inside of the back of garbage trucks in a most unspeakable manner. And, in retrospect, I offer that there could have been a much greater number of Blacks at that March if not for the National Baptist Convention's ideological animus towards Dr. King, and his civil disobedience support. Reparations tomorrow, and will very tardy. We as a people of all ethnic groups should support the efforts of Cong. Conyers, Randall Robinson, you, me, and many others, and learn from the striving of CARICOM, the union of Caribbean countries championing the reparations demands. Much respect for your long-term commitments to our people's safety, empowerment, and happinesses. OneLove

    From an early age, Elaine Brown had a series of adolescent and young-adult love affairs with black and Jewish middle- and upper-class men. In 1965 she left Philadelphia for Los Angeles, where she worked as a cocktail waitress. While there, she met Jay Kennedy, a social activist and a member of the American Comunist Party. Kennedy's radical views were influential in leading Brown towards the Black Power Movement and the Black Panther Party founded in 1966 by Huey P. Newton.

    "Elaine killed Betty...She's crazy." -Black Panther Chairman Huey P. Newton, regarding the torture, rape and murder of bookkeeper Betty Van Patter (probably at Huey's command). Elaine set up the LA chapter along with FBI/LAPD, She was a psych case and that's the only reason she was at UCLA at the time. Most legitimate Panthers where jailed or killed long ago.

Being black in america is a social condition/status as American descendants of slavery ADOS are held at the bottom of the hierarchy. Being black in America means you are apart of a bottom caste defined by poverty and honestly slavery. ADOS got the reparations conversation 2020 here , reparations doesn't have to be the end goal, but we do need it at least to hold us over until complete transformation

    In her 1992 autobiography A Taste for Power, Brown's proclivity for violence is given voice by such statements such as, "It is a sensuous thing to know that at one's will an enemy can be struck down."
    During her tenure as leader of the Panthers, Brown was implicated (although never charged) in the murder of Betty Van Patter, a bookkeeper who had been hired to straighten out the ledgers of the Oakland Community Learning Center, a school funded and staffed by Panther members and affiliates.

    There was a man named Saul Alinsky. He was a mid century communist organizer that taught how to devolve an argument rather than debate it. Since debating communism is self defeating. His rule? "Ridicule is man's most potent weapon. It is almost impossible to counteract ridicule." Notice! He said ALMOST! And you can see people right here, defending socialism, using his rule. If you want to understand what is happening? You have to understand the Saul Alinsky and Obama connect. It's all there.

That has nothing to do with if what is being said is factual and truthful. And certainly when a lot came from her own mouth. I don't begrudge anyone a living. But when you place yourself in the education arena you are there to teach and comment on factual evidence and documentation. I taught. I teach. My opinions are irelevent.

    For instance: I taught automotive mechanical engineering and wrote instruction manuals. I have an opinion that my ford is one of the best cars I've ever owned. But that opinion had no place when discussing or teaching the various engine designs. Generally a piston is a piston, no matter who makes it. They all work the same way. Although designs vary. So the teaching is based on factual materials. Especially if your writing tech manuals. Once you leave the arena OF TRUTH, everyone loses.

It is good you are critiquing her analysis. I am sure you understand her well, my contention is that she deserves more respect. Reparations does not indicate a lust for money but for justice. Again, I defer to your knowledge of her but I find that too often we dismiss those who lived the history. RESPECT

    I've tried to make my position on this speech, and the speaker, as clear as i could. But what I have failed to discuss is the rationale of it. Rational is the hoped for kcontent of a person. Rationale is the reason they use to defend opinions. Rationalization is the extended use of ratioanale beyond all reason. Rationalizing is the methodology that makes seeming facts support only one side of a debate or argument. It is a well used tool to explain a belief or opinion, trying to gain agreement.

    It's one thing to think. If you find a hundred dollar bill on the ground you would be a fool to try to find out who owns it. It's completely different to walk up to someone and say," Give me a hundred bucks or I'll make your life a living hell." And for those that don't seem to understand that? You have a lot more problems than needing or wanting that hundred dollars. And in the end all you learn is to just keep demanding more and more. with nothing ever having any real value to you.

    being Pro black doesn't mean being anti white, She against racism therefore she isn't going to hate any race. She is against Injustice so she doesn't want to trade places with an oppressor but rather live peace with all men. Remember in the beginning where she said that genetics have proven that color is not a definition.

    Just one question? Is it to late to claim my great great great grandmother was an american indian who was a common law wife to her black husband? Just asking. I need to figuer out where I am in the pecking order. And since I can trace her back to him by records? Does that make me more equal for reparations and get more money myself? Where do I sign up? Who do I talk to about this? Oh wait! I can ask Elaine. She always seems to be so helpful.

    This documentary is published for the youth of all races, it informs the evolutionary state of America in a sense of understanding its culturally biased inhabited society and overcoming the negative regard while removing the detriment of controlling the humanistic perspective of citizens in America by creating positive changes.

    It is usually best to wait for an answer to a question before suggesting treachery in an opponent. I'll get back to you with interest when time permits. MM

    I am now on disability and living on an equivilent to 12 dollars an hour. But 30 or more in a row would tell me.HELL NO! I won't work for less than 20.00 per hour. Poor educations, no work histories, give a shit attitudes, and demanding 20 per hour to start. Or it wasn't worth going off welfare to them. Again! WTF! And then she says," Like I would prefer to have 300 dollars a month on welfare than 30 million from reparations. That's what I want!" The whole thing in a nutshell!

    While the Panthers were being investigated for this murder, which according to Newton was ordered by Elaine Brown, Brown ran for the office of the Oakland City Council and garnered 44 percent of the vote. She ingratiated herself with California's then-Governor Jerry Brown (no relation) and was appointed as a Democratic Party delegate. She used this influence to her advantage in awarding choice contracts to her allies.

    The answer? More borowed money. At our present interest rates for that money. It would closely resemble a mortgage. Mostly interest for the first third, then slightly less the next third. And then finally, after 30-50 years the debt would be paid. That means that no principle would be accrued over the first 10-15 years. Leaving the next successive 5 generations paying the bill. Thus moving the burden of paying to those future people who aren't even born yet. Making it the crime of this century!

    and you know she is saying those exams do not determine if you are ready for university. yes it is still used as a measurement by the authorities, but it doesn't determine that you are fit for university. I've met people who made a 32 or higher on their ACTs and they dropped out their first semester. black people are focussed on education. please understand the dialogue

    Very interesting perspective, but from the viewpoint of a Continental European immigrant quite myopic. She discusses only the United States, which is her full right of course. But in doing so she forgets the many analogies that do exist with the social status and the social development of other regions such as Europe. The social fights there were all different, depending on the situation and the country: true, in the 19th century slavery didn't exist in Europe itself (although it did in the colonies, and the serfs in Russia weren't much better off than slaves in the new world), but the social inequality wasn't much different than in the southern US.
    Too many of these analogies exist. The one I remember was about Jefferson raping his slave girl (Sally Hemings? she didn't mention the name). Substantially the same thing happened with the slaves in sold by e.g., the Tatars to the Turks, for the harems of the powerful. And, I suspect that young, female indentured servants imported from Europe may also have had to share their master's bed, like it or not.
    The unique part in the US is indeed the race question, the original sin of declaring black people to be sub-human. Something similar is often tried in wars, in WWII with the Jews and de Poles and the Japanese among others, but that didn't last enough to stick. With the blacks in the US it did. Fortunately, it looks like that may disappear in a few generations by mixing of the races. I won't be around to see it, but I'm optimistic that such a uniquely American race will end up to be wonderful.

    So what is the truth of African American experiences in the United States since the importation of them as slaves?
