    kemetic-dreams:

    Asian Interviewer: “Can you address their concerns Mr.Chang?”

    MR. CHANG: “The concerns of African people? Yes I can. The fact is, that we all live under a system of White Supremacy. We Asian people look back at our long history of conflict with the European. We observe their strategies and develop our own, in response and in kind. There is no need for loud mass movements on our part, because we intend to overtake them in time, through action and personal sacrifice”.

    Asian INTERVIEWER: “And the African man?”
    MR. CHANG: “He does not count into our situation. He is simply here. We do not hate the African man. We just love the Asian man most. Real love–not cliche. We want to see Asian man happy, so we employ him. We eat together. We spend time with each other. We want his kids to be educated, so we invest in our own schools that offer our children the technical abilities to change the world’s power structure in our favor. We want to see the Asian man safe, so we purchase and organize our own communities. We want him to remain Asian, so we reduce the outside influence of others ideologies and cultures. While he fought to sniff behind the White man, the African man has had the opportunity and every right in the world to do the same, but he chooses to indict people like me for not hiring him over my own brothers. For me to do this would be foolish and that would not be Asian love. In contrast, the African man will fight for the right to be up under everyone else other than other African people who he should feel the most love for. If our indifference to their situation make us racist, then what would you call the African man’s indifference to his own situation?”

    Toni Morrison on Black Artists (1975‎‎)

    “Racism was always a con game that sucked all the strength of the victim. It’s the red flag that is danced before the head of a bull. It’s purpose is only to distract. To keep the bull’s mind away from his power and his energy. Keep it focused on anything but his own business. It’s hoped for consequence is to define black people as reaction to white presence…

    It’s important to know who the real enemy is and to know the very serious function of racism, which is distraction. It keeps you from doing YOUR WORK. It keeps you explaining over and over your reason for being.

    It may very well be left to artists to grapple with th‎is fact (the distraction). For art focuses on the single grain of rice, the tree-shaped scar and the names of people shipped not only the number. And to the artist one can only say: not to be confused. You don’t waste your energy fighting the fever. You must only fight the disease. And the disease is not racism. It is greed and the struggle for power.

    And I urge you to be careful for there is a deadly prison. A prison that is erected when one spends one’s life fighting phantoms, concentrating on myths and explaining over and over to the conqueror your language, your lifestyle, your history, your habits. And you don’t have to do it anymore. You can go ahead and talk straight to me.”

    On May 30, 1975, the author and intellectual Toni Morrison visited Portland State University and gave a speech, followed by a Q+A with a panel of academics.

    Police Officer Punches and Chokes handcuffed person

    In a shocking video uploaded to Twitter on Saturday evening, a handcuffed black man is seen being viciously assaulted by a Prince George’s County officer in Hyattsville, Maryland.

    The video was tweeted in two parts by the person , who asked to be identified as Prince(his first name).

    As the car rolls he starts recording a police officer beating a handcuffed man. Woman , who was in the car with Prince noticed that a handcuffed man was bleeding. A man is  flipped over on his back and officer continues punching him in the face.

    “Oh my god, he can’t breathe! You can hear wheezing,” the woman in the car states in a shocked tone, as she rolls down the window.


    “He was definitely shaking but I think it was because he couldn’t breathe and was in obvious pain.”


    “I’ve never really seen anything like this first hand. But I guess I’ve seen so much of this stuff online that my first instinct was to record it.”

    Thanks to Prince this handcuffed man has  a video proof of what really happened during the arrest . There is no information about the incident, but Police department refused to answer any questions.Anyway, is that a right way to arrest an unarmed person?Punching him in the face till he bleeds.. Police definitely needs time to think what to say to the public to look as good fellas.
