You cannot have it both ways!

It troubles me to hear the so many of these pacified church-going negroes who want to come to the defense of America when they hear a revolutionary speak out on the universal injustices that reign down on the African Diaspora.

These same passive negroes will readily admit to the problems that plague us and will claim to want some kind of revolution to take place and yet they refuse to see their conditioned connection to evil imperialism as the very thing that holds them down. 

There is no middle ground. 

You cannot be American and be for the African!

You cannot be Christian and be for the African!

You cannot be for the continuation of the current state of affairs that exist in this world and be for the African!

You cannot defend something that has historically shown us it will not work.  The Eurocentric system of culture and practice will never accept the African as an equal. We may as well accept that and stop trying to force the square peg into the round hole. Jamming it in will only lead to an uncomfortable fit and one that will need to be abandoned for the survival of the people.  Life in this present state can be summed up with simple mathematics: 2 things cannot occupy the same space at the same time. Period!

You cannot have it both ways.

Either you are for the Black advancement or you are for the continuation of this racist, imperialistic, systematic degradation of our people.  There is no middle ground!  You cannot pussy foot or dance on the fence embracing Americana while at the same time claiming you are for the advancement of the Black man!

Unfortunately the ones who embody this the most are the Black people who have propped themselves up as credits to our race and think that they are success stories but are no more than the chief agents of destruction in our community.  Little do they know that they are the primary ones who have been fattened up for the kill.  The primary hogs.  The choice cut selection.  The Grade A swine of our people.  Conditioned to believe that what is American is good for the African.  Conditioned to believe that obeying their laws and going to their schools will free themselves from the oppressive grip of indoctrination.  These are the people among us who are the primary students of African self hate doing nothing but holding down our true revolution.

History has given us the litmus test in showing how the imperialist system will treat a Black African regardless of their income, education, occupation, or any other social measurement that can be thrown on the table.  No matter what we do we cannot please them.  We cannot keep them off our backs.  We cannot keep them from killing us in the streets.  We cannot keep them from discriminating against us in the workforce.  Discriminating against us economically.  Discriminating against us politically.

We have even accepted their God and religious lies and yet they still hate us. 

Clearly we cannot win playing by their rules. 

You cannot have it both ways. Either you want to advance the African cause or you want this struggle to continue.

Other groups cry, scream, stomp, rob, shoot, kill, lynch, maim, decapitate, and infiltrate in order to advance their cause.  We are the ones who continue to play nice and be loyal and have the gall to wonder why we suffer the most.

When it comes to our issues, we are the only ones who don’t want others to feel left out and all the while we stand at the back of the line, empty-handed, still waiting for our condition to change.

We must open our eyes to what we are doing and understand that our behavior and loyalty to Eurocentric culture is like a plague that runs through our bodies. 

You embrace the imperialist system, and when things don’t go your way, you point at the people who represent that system.  But the problem is not the people.  The problem is the very imperialist system that you have associated yourself with and the standards and principles of that system which are in place to keep you held down under the grip of racism and suffering.  No matter what you do, as long as you play by the rules of that system, you will never gain a true victory. 

American idealism is nothing more than the destruction of everything opposite of the Eurocentric way of life.  History has given us this example time and time again so there's no need to argue.  It’s just that simple!  You cannot be loyal to a system that is opposite of your true original nature and expect to ever gain any ground.  You cannot continue to go against what is your naturally God given African MAAT principles of Truth, Order, Balance, Reciprocity, Propriety, Harmony, and Righteousness and expect a real revolution to ever take place!

You cannot have it both ways!

When will we wake up? 
 
How long will we continue dreaming?
 
WHY DO WE NEED THIS DAMN DREAM ANYWAY?
 
Coming on the heels of Dr. Kings birthday and a week of celebrating his dream, I pose the question, when are we going to wake up?
 
This in no way is meant to disrespect the legacy and tireless work of the great Dr. Martin Luther King Jr., but I for one must say that it's time for African people to face reality and understand that as long as we embrace an ideology of a dream rather than focusing on what oppresses us, then the nightmare in which we live will only continue.  We have been conditioned to cope with unfulfilled hope and strive for a false sense of equality that only keeps us caught up in the yearning process of thinking that the world will ultimately become a utopia and shining example of democracy if we try hard enough to make it so.
 
The fact of the matter is that we must stop dreaming and go into action. We must address the very thing that has put within us the need to dream to begin with.  The racist imperialistic system of European indoctrination.  As long as this dominant system of racism and oppression is a part of our lives then we can dream all we want and nothing will ever change. 
 
This so called dream has been exploited and put upon us as the pathway to freedom, but we continue to make no true progress because the dominant system continues benefit from and control our struggle. As long as we are reaching and not achieving then things will never move forward.  To achieve goals you must take a true assessment of what stands in the way of getting to where you want to be and eliminate those obstacles.  As long as we submit to their religion, allow them to have command of our talents, our lands, and our resources, then we will only have what they want us to have and never clear the hurdles to success. 
 
The program of the imperialist system is to keep us indulged in this dream that quite frankly will never become a reality.  They have sold this to us as some moral stance that we, the oppressed, must take while their program of slavery remains in place.  The indoctrination most of us suffer from is a program of never deviating from the pursuit of this dream, and that the only method of eliminating hate is a passive approach to freedom. 
 
This program only keeps us dulled to reality and blinded to the aspects of what it really takes to pick ourselves up out of the gutter and achieve greatness.  Everyone has a look in the mirror moment where we must face the truth and admit that a change in our personal lives is necessary in order to achieve our individual goals.  Likewise, we as a people must have that same moment of truth and understand that the selling point of Dr. King's dream is something that we must get beyond if we ever are going to reach our glory.  This propaganda has been sold to us by our dominators as noble and honorable when in fact it is nothing but a bill of goods devoid of any benefit.
 
The imperialist system will use any tactic it can to continue its perpetual domination, and as long as we embrace this assimilationist idealism then we will never free ourselves from the stranglehold of oppression.  They have perpetuated this state in which we live, and have sold this dream to us as the way we need to think, therefore maintaining their system of power and control.  We have been made so horribly depressed and feel such a need to be be free that we consume this concept of a dream that is supposed to benefit all. 
 
The truth is that the imperialist system has placed this need upon us to begin with and the only way to truly achieve liberation is not through a dream but rather the total mental elimination of the system that continues to control us.
