Default Notes from T'shango Mbilishaka!

Habari Zako Afrikan Family,

"We must move beyond the hero worship approach to history and look at it analytically for the lessons it teaches us. We must look at our heroes critically and analytically so that we gain critical answers to solving our problems. It not nearly enough to feel good. Feeling good is not going to save your African lives. Look at our heroes in terms of their culture, the mistakes they have made, how the solved problems, and what they planned for the advancement of their people."
- Dr. Amos Wilson


Quotes from Carter G. Woodson, 2nd Black man to Graduate from Harvard. In his auotbiography he said it took him the twenty years to get the Harvard brainwashing out of his head. He wrote in 1933 the Mis-education of the Negro. His most famous quote: "When you control a man's thinking you do not have to worry about his actions. You do not have to tell him not to stand here or go yonder. He will find his "proper place" and will stay in it. You do not need to send him to the back door. He will go without being told. In fact, if there is no back door, he will cut one for his special benefit. His education makes it necessary."

Like many of our people in history we don't really study what they said and did. We get the comercialized version of Black History Month from the white owned and controlled media which is neither correct in facts nor interpretation. Dr. Carter G. Woodson had different intentions for us when he created Negro History Week which became Black History Month.

"Enemies don't share heroes"- Irritated Genie

Dr. Carter G. Woodson:

As another has well said, to handicap a student by teaching him that his black face is a curse and that his struggle to change his condition is hopeless is the worst sort of lynching.

Here we find that the Negro has failed to re- cover from his slavish habit of berating his own and worshipping others as perfect beings.

If the Negro in the ghetto must eternally be fed by the hand that pushes him into the ghetto, he will never become strong enough to get out of the ghetto.

If the white man wants to hold on to it, let him do so; but the Negro, so far as he is able, should develop and carry out a program of his own.

Blacks are the only group of people who take their most precious possessions, their children, and ask their oppressors to educate them and mold and shape their minds.

In fact, the confidence of the people is worth more than money.

In our so-called democracy we are accustomed to give the majority what they want rather than educate them to understand what is best for them.

Even schools for Negroes, then, are places where they must be convinced of their inferiority.

Negroes who have been so long inconvenienced and denied opportunities for development are naturally afraid of anything that sounds like discrimination.


The large majority of the Negroes who have put on the finishing touches of our best colleges are all but worthless in the development of their people.

The mere imparting of information is not education.

The so-called modern education, with all its defects, however, does others so much more good than it does the Negro, because it has been worked out in conformity to the needs of those who have enslaved and oppressed weaker peoples.

The strongest bank in the United States will last only so long as the people will have sufficient confidence in it to keep their money there.

The thought of' the inferiority of the Negro is drilled into him in almost every class he enters and in almost every book he studies.Carter G. Woodson

"Ted Turner Wants You Dead To Save The Planet":
  • "Back in 1996, Turner stated in an interview with Audubon Magazine that a 95% population reduction would be ideal. Below is his quote. “A total population of 250-300 million people, a 95% decline from present levels, would be ideal." Turner has also donated $1 billion to an organization known as the United Nations Foundation. The organization created by Turner is dedicated to the goals of population control, condom distribution, promotion of abortion and other methods to promote the stealth eugenics agenda. Turner and others like Bill and Melinda Gates have donated large amounts of money to so called charitable organizations which really serve to promote the eugenics movement. The public thinks they are doing a good thing with their money, when in fact they are contributing their wealth behind a much more evil and sinister agenda. Amazingly, Turner was also given an award from the UN for his work in sustainable development which is really nothing more than code for population reduction."

Don't get mad at me I didn't write it.
Check quote below it just shows how Dr. King said a lot more then "I have a dream..." Check attachment from Micheal Moore I didn't write that either. I just read it and sent it to you.

Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.
“The policymakers of the white society have caused the darkness; they create discrimination; they structured slums; and they perpetuate unemployment, ignorance and poverty. It is incontestable and deplorable that Negroes have committed crimes; but they are derivative crimes. They are
born of the greater crimes of the white society. When we ask Negroes to abide by the law, let us also demand that the white man abide by law in the ghettos. Day-in and day-out he violates welfare laws to deprive the poor of their meager allotments; he flagrantly violates building codes and regulations; his police make a mockery of law; and he violates
laws on equal employment and education and the provisions for civic services. The slums are the handiwork of a vicious system of the white society; Negroes live in them but do not make them any more than a prisoner makes a prison. Let us say boldly that if the violations of law by the white man in the slums over the years were calculated and compared
with the law-breaking of a few days of riots, the hardened criminal would be the white man. These are often difficult things to say but I have come to see more and more that it is necessary to utter the truth in order to deal with the great problems that we face in our society.” – Dr. Martin Luther King 1967
