" The colonized's self-assertion, born out of a protest, continues to define itself in relation to it. In the midst of revolt, the colonized continues to think, feel, and live against and, therefore, in relation to the colonizer and colonization."  - Albert Memmi

The war between people of the sun and those of the dark has been ongoing for thounited snakesnds of years in a struggle for self-preservation and survival. To define things in terms of a box of the last century or so is to miss the point entirely.

I think this was a topic of discussion from Deep Kmtyw Thought course if not mistaken.

Don't know if this applies to this conversation but i read this in the Nubian Times and i just wanted share it. "There is no listing of which white people are racist. The U.S. is a racist country. Has been since its inception. So, until there is such a thing as a racist listing, all white people shall remain suspect. Mess around with them at your own risk".

Reminds me of what Khalid Muhammad said on Phil Donahue!
