      How can we leave out the rest of asia and original americas

      When we refer to the black struggle, why do we limit it to just
      people with naps, when, in fact, most asians, native americans,
      and oceania people are Original people also. Alot of times I feel
      like the Black Self Empowerment community vilifies other people
      of other ethnicities because they may not all have curly hair.
      I think that is wrong and problematic. Peace.

      Well...Come Allah,

      I limit my struggle based on the FACT that Afreekans have enough on OUR plate to deal with without adding the struggles of others. Why is this such a hard thing for US to manage? Why DO WE need to incorporate the crap of other groups with OUR own? It is NOT about "villifying" others...it IS about....TAKING CARE OF HOME FIRST!

      Let them handle they bizniz and WE handle OURS....if need BE....WE can meet in the middle somewhere down the line.....

      Akpe for allowing me to share

      I think that this is a result of

      1) misunderstanding of genuine African scholarship
      2) a lack of contemporary geo-political development
      3) (in some instances) ignorance and
      4) (in some instances) misinformation being propagated by the enemy and their agent provocatures.

      This of course is in reference to when other ethnicities are "villified." When you call a spade a "spade" though...it's an entirely different story. I try to be fair in those respects though, because everybodies got some dirt on them somewhere in history.

      Some groups have a lot of dirt in their history as it relates to Afrikan People such as arabs and europeans. We must look to Our own problems/solutions first and anyone elses after Ours are finish. Also other groups have different struggles that we are not a part of, for example most Asian nationalities hate japan. Our beef is not with japan because we know they are just an exstention of european/white supremacy which is Our root problem. For other nations and peoples this may not be the problem. Another explain, Native Americans want/deserve all of their land back, we as Afrikan People can not honest in engage in talking about taking any part of so-called ameriKKKa Our land is Afrika. We must see Our People first and collaberate in fighting commons enemies (under the right conditions).

      People who believe in the same thing, don't have to disbelieve in the same thing and People who disbelieve in the same thing, don't have to believe in the same thing.

      Wouldn't you think it would be more of a benefit to try to
      educate the other Original People about their foundations
      amongst the Original People near the Nile Valley, instead of
      trying to isolate those people, in order to share in their
      resources and ultimately build a stronger united front against
      white supremacy? That's what I am talking about.
      Peace.

      NO...I AM INTERESTED ONLY IN EDUCATING MY PEOPLE (those in the Margins in particular....poor Afreekans surviving in poverty) ABOUT WHO THEY ARE...FIRST AND FOREMOST. END OF STORY.....

      Lets not pretend that black people don't sell messed up merchandise
      in our community also.......
      Let me give you an example. If you are a graduate student
      at a grad school where the Chinese or Vietmanese have secured a
      plot of land for organic farming, would you say you will not use
      parts of the plot because you "believe" that Chinese and Vietmanese
      are "not african"? To me that would be ludicrous to have that
      kind of attitude. That's what I mean. When I was at grad school
      the Chinese, Vietmanese, Korean, Nigerian, etc. SHARED the same
      plot for organic farms. It was COMMUNAL.
      Peace.

      Allah, I believe you've misread my statement...

      I'm stating that we cannot show up to build a bridge in the company of people who've built an expansive bridge amongst their own people when we have yet to do so. When I mention the bootleg items I'm talking about these items vs. tools like hammers, cement mixers etc. etc. and that you cannot come unprepared to a building site without proper means of application...hence there are no bridges born of CD's and DVD's but tools and sincere labor. I am not talking negatively of the Asian community when I mentioned china town only where these sweat shops do exist (see mulberry st., N.Y., N.Y.) People who have nationhood, nations built and national agenda look at us like we're crazy asking for a co-sign on a loan or coalition for that matter that we haven't invested in seriously ourselves. As a person who has invested a great deal of time studying with Japanese, Korean and Chinese counterparts I can assure you that I in no shape or form have any hostile energy towards them, rather the opposite....It would be ludicrous of me to have the name "DAISHO" and then turn around and bash The Peoples of Asia wouldn't you say?

      you say you are soley interested in eduation of our people
      how can we work together to do this? do you do it thru teaching trades, academics, arts, science...

      btw

      i fully agree i dont see any need to support any other race
      we are over four hundred years behind the world

      how do we catch up?
      study ourselves and the world more?
      work more hours than all other races/groups?

      every immigrant group in this country comes up on tha backs of our ancestors and shows no respect to them or us they owe reparations to
      price gouging, copycating our creations, old harmful products they sell us
      shoot black folks can work for white folks way easier than any other group

      there is no color solidarity asians dont look out for messicans nor do east indians support jamaicans....

      we have been hoodwinked by hustlas like sharpton and farrakhan pushing nationalism verbally but to themsleves they are about integration
