Feeding Our Children to the Wolves
by: Del Jones, War Correspondent
We not only fail our children in areas of education, socialization and acculturation, we feed them to the wolves as we stumble around brainwashed with no understanding of our own self-interest.
We incorrectly believe that the education of our young is something the system is suppose to do, we only have to have ‘em brush their own teeth, wash behind their ears and dress themselves. Even those whose children are doing well don’t struggle to influence the curriculum.
As hostile as this environment is our children are still unprepared for racism emanating from individuals or the systematic racism that traps their aspirations on lock. Its like living in the jungle and forgetting to tell the children “don’t pet the lions.”
Obviously, our continued child-like love of those who hang us out to dry will be costly to the next generation as people jockey for a place in tomorrow’s sun. Of all the people on this planet who have been crushed and exploited, you would think we would be seriously preparing our young for the next phase of the Afrikan struggle.
Instead, we can plainly see a hard truth, many times we are our children’s worse enemy. As a brainwashed people we don’t seem to know what our best interest is. Our mind can understand and create every thing but a memory bank of the endless hustles, broken promises and unnecessary atrocities against us as a people.
Instead of leaping into the 21st century with a plan, enthusiasm and a positive destiny, it seems its gonna be more of the same old shit. First we must face up to the fact that we are damaged, brainwashed, and distorted. That’s just a fact and to know this is the first step to healing.
We continue to trust those who have done everything to destroy us. Meanwhile, at election time a host of suited savages roll through the ‘Hood kissing our babies and lying thru their clenched teeth. Republican Presidental Canidiate Bush’s kissing Black children in the mouth can not hide his family’s record of anti-Black activities and policies.
Today, we allow them to kiss our little girls in the mouth and seduce them from cradle to grave. Nasty adult perverts cruise through our communities searching for a physical or political nut.
Where are the parents, where is the outcry, where is our pride. As we attempt to survive their multi-cultural fantasy, plans are in the works to bring our holocaust to a horrible end.
