BLACKS DON'T READ. This is very deep, and unfortunately, very
true! This is a heavvvvy piece and a Caucasian wrote it.
THEY ARE STILL OUR SLAVES We can continue to reap profits from
the Blacks without the effort of physical slavery. Look at the
current methods of containment that they use on themselves:
IGNORANCE, GREED, and SELFISHNESS.
Their IGNORANCE is the primary weapon of containment. A great man
once said, "The best way to hide something from Black people
is to put it in a book." We now live in the Information Age.
They have gained the opportunity to read any book on any subject
through the efforts of their fight for freedom, yet they refuse
to read. There are numerous books readily available at Borders,
Barnes &Noble, and Amazon.com, not to mention their own Black
Bookstores that provide solid blueprints to reach economic
equality (which should have been their fight all along), but few
read consistently, if at all.
GREED is another powerful weapon of containment. Blacks, since
the Abolition of slavery, have had large amounts of money at
their disposal. Last year they spent 10 billion dollars during
Christmas, out of their 450 billion dollars in total yearly
income (2.22%). Any of us can use them a sour target market, for
any business venture we care to dream up, no matter how
outlandish, they will buy into it. Being primarily a consumer
people, they function totally by greed. They continually want
more, with little thought for saving or investing. They would
rather buy some new sneakers than invest in starting a business.
Some even neglect their children to have the latest Tommy or
FUBU.
They still think that having a Mercedes, and a big house gives
them "Status" or that they have achieved the American
Dream. They are fools! The vast majority of their people are
still in poverty because their greed holds them back from
collectively making better communities. With the help of BET, and
the rest of their black media that often broadcasts destructive
images into their own homes, we will continue to see huge profits
like those of Tommy and Nike. (Tommy Hilfiger has even jeered
them, saying he doesn't want their money, and look at how the
fools spend more with him than ever before!). They'll
continue to show off to each other while we build solid
communities with the profits from our businesses that we market
to them.
SELFISHNESS, ingrained in their minds through slavery, is one of
the Major ways we can continue to contain them. One of their own,
Dubois said that there was an innate division in their culture. A
"Talented Tenth" he called it. He was correct in
his deduction that there are segments of their culture that has
achieved some "form" of success. However, that segment
missed the fullness of his work. They didn't read that the
"Talented Tenth"was then responsible to aid the
Non-Talented Ninety Percent in achieving a better life. Instead,
that segment has created another class, a Buppie class that looks
down on their people or aids them in a condescending manner. They
will never achieve what we have. Their selfishness does not
allow them to be able to work together on any project or endeavor
of substance. When they do get together, their selfishness lets
their egos get in the way of their goal. Their so-called help
organizations seem to only want to promote their name without
making any real change in their community. They are content to
sit in conferences and conventions in our hotels, and talk about
what they will do, while they award plaques to the best speakers,
not the best doers. Is there no end to their selfishness? They
steadfastly refuse to see that TOGETHER EACH ACHIEVES MORE
(TEAM)! They do not understand that they are no better than each
other because of what they own. In fact, most of those Buppies
are but one or two paychecks away from poverty. All of which is
under the control of our pens in our offices and our rooms. Yes,
we will continue to contain them as long as they refuse to read,
continue to buy anything they want, and keep thinking they are
"helping" their communities by paying dues to
organizations which do little other than hold lavish conventions
in our hotels. By the way, don't worry about any of them reading
this letter,remember, 'THEY DON'T READ!!!!'
