5 Powerful Ways Black People Can Help Counter White Supremacy

Education

Black people must take control of the education of Black children. Education is a tool to improve society, but Black children aren’t being taught how to improve their communities.

Education doesn’t stop at learning terms and equations. Black people need to be educated on how to solve Black problems or else they will continue to be issues of concern. No one else is going to solve Black problems for us.

Educate your children outside of the classroom. Celebrating Black History Month once a year during the shortest month of the year is nowhere close to enough time to study African and African-American history compared  to the amount of time spent on learning European history.

  1. Another very important way Africans in America could counter white supremacy is to remove the obstacles white supremacy have built to prevent Africans in America from progress in America.
    Join the movement to do that at http://www.thepetitionsite.com/635/615/457 to petition President Obama and Congress to remove the exception from the 13th Amendment. It's about human rights, human dignity, social equality, and equal opportunity. Sign up and get involved.

    The need to take back control over our children's education cannot be over-stated. We are a people who are being taught & groomed to solve other people's problem; to make other people rich & to basically be a cog in the wheel of our own enslavement. We need to stop that and decide to go back to the pre-integration lie & do for & think about our own betterment FIRST. You cannot help anyone if you cannot help yourself. As my mama used to say: Charity begins at home.

    WTF is a "black" problem? Life for black folks in America has never been better, better opportunity, better in terms of freedom and liberty, better schools, better access to education and fewer obstacles to succeed.
    I don't know how much more "control" folks can have since we already have the power over our childs. White supremacy is not much of a problem especially compared to the past.

    Graciana Afrikah Does Michelle Alexander's book honor or insult the memory of the African slave? I find it to be an insult, slaves did not have the opportunity afforded people today. No opportunity, no freedom, no liberty, no vote, not even a minimum wage! Nothing! Negroes today are ungrateful, sniveling, privileged bed wetters, who have not the first clue how fortunate they are. People died to give you the right to speak and the best thoughts you can muster to write are hateful and full of self pity? You say wake up, I say walk off…

    In order for us to reach our full potential as a people, we must solve our own problems. No one can do more for us than we can do for ourselves. Until we realize this, we will continue to struggle. But their is a solution. Black Unity is the solution, http:www.3ufirst.com is the plan.

    Collin Johnson Is that it? No "conversation" on race, all you have is a baseless accusation, "troll"?
    Black folks do not want a conversation, you simply want to pontificate and accuse folks of being racist.

  12. Ultimately, our progression as a people will come once we learn how to control our economic destiny. Everything else stems from proper planning and utilization of financial resources. http://www.brsunited.com/black-friday-boycott.html

    FIRST, by acknowledging the farce of 'white supremacy'. White supremacy is as weak as the KKK costumes they wear, as well as the pointed hats with holes [as Django so well pointed out]. ROTFL! Love that movie. "I like the way you die boy".
    * "Supremacy" was designed to divide, conquer, enslave, to intimidate and to cause fear. We believe it, that's why we were enslaved by it. It's like the wizard in the Wizard of Oz. Supremacy is nothing more than weakness, cowardice and a huge inferiority complex, wrapped in warped, irrational anger, inherent corrupt, criminal and mental psychosis. Racist supremists are the worst, often evil, wracked with fear of being extinct, overpowered and outnumbered. All in the name of patriotism and 'God Bless America'. Christian liars and ignorant hypocrites. Distorters of truth. Truth be told, we they all know – weak. They knew this when they stepped on African lands and saw the very strong black men, women and children. You can tell by chains and manner of enslavement and torture, that they were afraid. Did I mention greed. Yes, always about MONEY, POWER, GREED and DOMINATION. Supremacy of any kind is most afraid of knowledge – YOUR knowing, YOUR truth, YOUR history, YOUR image, YOUR name, YOUR unity, YOUR power, and YOUR men… and 'loving YOURself' and knowledge of self, that's what they are most afraid of. White supremacy needs a neck to stand on. Remove yours. The gig is up.
    *Let them know the above, and watch the anger… *Knowledge is indeed POWERFUL!
