Angry Runnin' Up On Them Krakkkas At The City Hall

Runnin' Up On Them Krakkkas At The City Hall

It's no secret that we Afrikans don't get respect from the establishment. Case and point: the denial to grant us reparations. The jews got their reparations for the holocaust. The Japanese got theirs for the Japanese vs. American war when they dropped that atomic bomb on Hiroshima. amerikkka still outright disrespects us after 400 long, gruelling years of slavery by not granting us reparations.

Their argument: "That was over 100 years ago! Let it go!" or (and this is my favorite one) "Giving African-Americans reparations won't solve the problems in the Black community." Whatever the case or end result, we want our shit!

I say all that to say this: We've been lobbying for reparations for years. They ain't listening. If "one of us" were to "run up on them krakkkas at the city hall" or capitol hill demanding we be granted reparations, do you think that would sway their decision in our favor. Would it gain us any respect? Would there be any brave souls willing to follow in the footsteps of the "martyr" who ran up on them krakkkas demanding respect and reparations?

I already know how I'd spend mine if they were to pay us in CA$H MONEY. I'd take my Black ass straight to Afrika. Won't pass go, won't collect $200. LOL! I would not give a dime of that money back to amerikkka. I doubt they'd pay us in CA$H though. It'll most likely be in the form of some type of voucher or reduced taxes.

Consider this:

It is estimated that France would have to provide reparations in the TRILLIONS to victims of it's colonialism.

The "west" collectively does not have enough substance-wealth (tangible like gold and silver) to pay. Not to mention that it is the persistent wealth of non-european nations that STILL prop-up and support their economies.

So, reparations would bankrupt the "west."

If we got to point of reparations, then obviously their jacking natural-resources from colored countries will-have stopped as well -can't have one without the other.

Now if I were yt, I would not voluntarily give Afrikans nothin'!! "power concedes nothing without a demand" -Frederick Douglass

Being Afrikan from Amerikkka, I implemented my own educational reparations plan through Student Loans, my very-own 40 Acres and a Mule. I 'aint givin' them hot piss, either for payment.

I agree, these criminals don't have the funds to give their own. Let another hurricaine hit and see how crippled these fools are. The US is debtor nation. They owe so much money it's mindboggling. If China cash in on what they hold the US is DONE - toast - ya heard me. Forget reparations - these fools are fighting for their survival and hegemony in this world they not about to give us nothin except a ticket back into slavery.

Invest in property in Africa? No doubt Drap.

Will kinda miss the hoops Draptomania but your new avatar definately raisin sum eyebrows too lol.

OK, so I have been thinking this "thought" and this seems the appropriate place to express it; the yte-man/woman is scared ova' dere in the U.S. these days with all this immigrant commotion.

basically as I read it, they draw closer to the "law and order" philosophy of the "state" and their resistance to ho-lice brutality and and aggressive action against coloreds and near-do-wells (yte-liberals) wears down.

While I certainly overstansd your sentiments, a coordinated, concerted effort is required during this phase of yte-histeria/insanity.

I get the "feeling" that Mexicans are going to amp up their immigration into Amerikkka, and cause chaos and "panic" amongst "middle Amerikkka."

DO NOT BE ALARMED if yte-people start "loving" you! I have been reading on blogs and forums where they are claiming "Amerikkka" in the name of themselves and "blacks." Truth knows we'd only be invited to a party when it's damn-near over, and 'aint nothin' left on the buffet but slim-pickings.

Does anybody know why they denied us reparations? I hear it's because they said what they were doing at the time was legal. If thats the case then that leads me to believe that we should show discontent for every law we disagree with because they have shown the ability as a government to create laws that are faulty (all governments have done that). What if we just decided to stop asking for reparations, and just took what we wanted and burned down the rest? That'll leave'em thinkin they shoulda treated us at least half right. Maybe we should just set fire to everything, (would that be mass maytrism), we aint got nothin here anyway. They say you cant lose what you dont have, so whose loss would it be then?

Because to do so would mean that they would have to recognize the gravity of what they did to us. Right now they want to act like they "rescued" us from Africa. They "rescued" us from Africa with chains? With shackles? With restraints? With fetters? LMAO!!!
