FRANCIS CRESS WELSING on

Welsing, Frances Cress (1997). Conscious counter-racists determined to change the world in the 21st century Lecture presentation at the First World Alliance, December 13.

...Staying on course. The issue is racism/white supremacy. There's no other racism...

Its like all the non-white people in the world would stand up and if they felt inclined and said they hated white people. So what? What can they do about it? But if people on this side of the board say they hate people of color, they can prevent them from eating, they can prevent them from having jobs, they can--because this is where power [is].

So if we get it straight, we're not talking about race relations because they're trying to slide. Now that black people have defined what racism is, the white people are trying to redefine things.
You've got white people in universities, Harvard University's holding whiteness conferences. Check that. Whiteness. What is whiteness? See, exploring this instead of talking about racism/white supremacy as the problem. These are just diversionary games...

And if black people are not on guard, they will pull the black people over here [with them, distracting us from the problem as they have done for centuries],
Lets explore whiteness [together].

[And we'll say], No, lets explore preference. Privilege. You see what I'm saying? But you'd be on course if you say, The counter-racism definition of preference is white supremacy. The highest form of preference is white supremacy. So you take the discussion back. You can't have diversity if you have white supremacy...You can't have integration if you have white supremacy. People sitting in the same space--when we were enslaved, we were in the same space with white people. That didn't make it justice.

So being in the same space, having dinner with, being in the same bed does not make justice. What we are talking about is ending white supremacy and replacing it with justice and staying on course. Staying on course meaning embrace your self-respect. When you embrace your self-respect, people can't pull you into their language. You all keep on talking about whiteness, we're talking about white supremacy. And now they have it so you can go down to the census bureau...and reclassify.

Now that's another [divide (by color) and conquer] trap. All the Cablanasians [e.g., Tiger Woods].

See, they got all these categories, about 15 different categories and so all the people who don't want to be black--I think I got--let me call my mother, because I think-- Mother, don't we have some German? See, that'll be us, trying to find all the different--everything other than black...The building opens at 9:00 and we're just up and down in the check list trying to figure out percentages etc. The white people go in and do what? Check white and they're out.

This is a trap...to get people [to say], I don't really know what side of the board I'm on because actually, I think I have some American Indian, I have some white, and I know I have a little bit of Afrikan, somewhere in there. So I'll be straddling the line like this in complete confusion.

Neely Fuller suggests, there's three categories of people under the system of white supremacy: it's white, non-white and white supremacist. Now that keeps it real simple. This is all of us colored people.

White people who are not white supremacists, you'll have to find them. When you find one that is willing to tell you what white people talk about when there's no black people around, you might put that person under just white.

Do you all understand?

...The goal is not for white people to like you. Like yourself

For what its worth

I bought Dr. Welsing's book called the "Isis Papers" and I continue to find it a very interesting read. She refers to Isis (an Egyptian goddess) in the title of her book, I think also that Blacks should know about Ishtar, an Assyrian goddess.

Like I said Dr. Welsing's book is a very good read, eye-opening in fact and since I go to a historically black university (HBCU), its even more interesting because I can see some of the effects that society has on young blacks even today. Her book is relevant because young blacks still create obstacles among each other by not uniting face forward against our common oppressor here in the United States and it seems in fact that some Blacks actively promote the racist attitude of the government here on our historically black campus, which is totally mind boggeling considering the fact that most of our ancestors were slaves and that this school was created to educate us who were segrated and systematically denied education to free ourselves from this common oppressor.

I still think HBCU's were created to and are dedicated to freeing young black minds, except it takes willing students also.

Functional Definition of RACISM = WHITE SUPREMACY = APARTHEID



As a black behavioral scientist and practicing psychiatrist, my own functional definition of Racism (White Supremacy) is as follows:
"Racism (White Supremacy) is the local and global power system and dynamic, structured and maintained by persons who classify themselves as white, whether consciously or subconsciously determined, which consists of patterns of perception, logic, symbol formation, thought, speech, action and emotional response, as conducted simultaneously in all areas of people activity (economics, education, entertainment, labor, law, politics, religion, sex and war), for the ultimate purpose of white genetic survival and to prevent white genetic annihilation on planet Earth - a planet upon which the vast majority of people are classified as nonwhite (black, brown, red and yellow) by white skinned people, and all of the nonwhite people are genetically dominant (in terms of skin coloration) compared to the genetic recessive white skin people".

- Francis Cress Welsing MD

The system of Racism (White Supremacy) utililizes deceit and violence (inclusive of chemical warfare, biological warfare and psychological warfare), indeed Any Means Necessary, to achieve its ultimate goal objective of white genetic survival and to prevent white genetic annihilation on planet Earth.
In the existing system of Racism (White Supremacy) when the term is undefined and poorly understood there is general confusion and chaos on the part of the victims of that system (local, national and global). It then becomes impossible for the victims of racism (White Supremacy) to effectively counter the global system of Racism (White Supremacy).

The African enslavement, imperialism, cololnialism, neo-colonialism, fascism, etc., are all dimensions and aspects of Racism (White Supremacy).


Functional Definition of "NIGGER(S)"

As a black behavioral scientist and practicing psychiatrist, my own functional definition of "Nigger(s)" is as follows:
Any and all use of the word, "Nigger(s)". whether it is used by a White person or a Black person (or shade of black), no matter in what context or in what-so-ever tone of voice, translates into the following statement: "Consciously or subconsciously, I am helping to maintain the local, national, global system of Racism (White Supremacy)".

Recommendation: Instead of "Nigger(s)", use the phrase "Victim(s) of Racism (White Supremacy)".

- Frances Cress Welsing M.D.


Functional Definition of TERRORISM


TERRORISM DEFINED:
Many Black people are of the opinion that the global, national, local system of RACISM (White Supremacy) is the longest lasting and extreme form of TERRORISM on the planet Earth, and that all other forms of TERRORISM flow from this major source of global injustice; which oppresses the vast majority of people on the planet Earth - - the Non White global majority.

Therefore ending TERRORISM must of necessity mean, the elimination of the global system of RACISM (White Supremacy) and replacing it with Justice, so there can be PEACE on planet Earth.

I am pleased to note that so many people have declared that they want TERRORISM to end.


- Frances Cress Welsing M.D.

Thumbs up Reporting back from the field

Hi family, this is Joanie your resident Recovering Afrikan amerikkkan and Representative from the Margins.

Ahhh...Kwame,


Upon further review, i am back to report the following:


Found this useful peice of info.

"We now are in the 21st century. Recently, there has been an unraveling and an analysis of the core issue of the first global power system of mass oppression-- the power system of racism (white supremacy). Once the collective victim (non-white population) understands this fundamental issue, the ultimate organizing of all of the appropriate behaviors necessary to neutralize the great injustice of the white supremacy power system will only be a matter of time. The length of time required to neutralize global white supremacy will be inversely proportional to 1) the level of understanding of the phenomenon; plus 2) the evolution of self- and group-respect, the will, determination and discipline to practice the appropriate counter-racist behaviors--on the part of the non-white victims of white supremacy."

Question family: What might some of those "appropriate behaviors" look like in your home?


Audio section ~ A MUST HEAR!!! :cheers:

Images section ~ A MUST SEE!!!! :cheers: :cheers:

Store ~ did not work

Features ~ Mixed bag....will check the audios on "interviews" later...could prove interesting.... $)

Quick scan of forums leds me to believe, T'AINT NO WAY I COULD HANG OUT IN THERE!!!!! :puke: .... is this one of those dishes that one must "acquire a taste" for?

:offair: :offair: :offair:

I think Dr. Cress-Welsing is absolutely correct about this. ONE OF THE THINGS IN LIFE THAT IRKS ME THE MOST IS WHEN PEOPLE ARGUE WHITE "PRIVLEDGE." I think that people believe they are getting "deep" by saying that, but as Dr. Cress-Welsing is indicating, the people who talk about white "privledge" and "preference" are "off course." Lets call the muthafu**** problem what it is...WHITE "SUPREMACY."

Amatsyah Tel Dan will become famous soon enoughAmatsyah Tel Dan will become famous soon enough
i am reading Isis Papers presently for about the 3rd time

the chapter on black children is were i am an i think it fits in with what you are stating

black children are the ones directly under assault with white supremacy, white supremacist may in fact be teaching our child by proxy and being counscious or uncounciously inflicted upon by both black and white teachers a level of self hate and inferiority.

with that said, i proffer to the borad a round table type feasabilty study:


taking 1000 african orphans in america, extracting them from and emersing them in an african culture of say a host african country, reteaching them from an open tribal culture with accents on math science and medicine do this for a period of 12 years each year adding 1000 students

opinios, hopes, doubts, could this in effect begin to counter white supremacy ?
is this feasable ?

Feelin Dat

Blessed Love amatsyah tel dan,

and thank you for your reply

I agree 1000% with your proposal. I would LOVE to have the opportunity and blessing to be an active participant in such a study.

I am currently "beside myself" with rage everytime i hear our children quoting and spewing the venom of the white superheroes and other cartoon characters who are mostly white or non- human (oops, same thing, at least according to Yurugu)

I say, we lock and load our children with true truths, however, me thinks is not happening because their parents, leaders, authoritarian figures, adults, "whole people" in thier lives, are not PRACTICING WHAT THEY PREACH AND TEACH. I mean, how can you tell the child they are SPECIAL, UNIQUE, AFRIKAN, PRECIOUS, THE FUTURE, and then proceed to ALLOW them to fill their minds with cartoons, video games, violence, exposure to sex, drugs and lies.....
If the clique "you get out what you put in" is true, then who is RESPONSIBLE for what we see coming out of "the mouths of {our} babes"? YT? and if is YT, then what are we going to DO about it.

If i had kids of my own, they WOULD NOT watch cartoons PERIOD. This would mean i have the RESPONSIBLITY of entertaining them. Tough job, yet, SOMEBODY HAS TO DO IT!. That's the position, THINKING i would have about it.

Thanks for allowing me to share
