I have been an advocate for a Black Jesus Picture at our church for
years. This picture has the colors wrong.
It is our Black Jesus that holds up the weak European. I have White
friends and I never forget White People who were abolitionists and freedom fighters
and People like Ramsey Clark & Councilman James Kenney & Gore Vidal who
don't sleep well at night because they know there is injustice in our world.
These Europeans have, like Robert Kennedy and others fought for and continue to
fight for real freedom & real justice, sometimes giving their lives. {The
Robert F. Kennedy Center for Social Justice Continues His work long after His
tragic assassination in June 0f 1968.} The Late Senator from Wisconsin Paul
Welstone & His wife are other People who come to mind -- Dedicated,
Champions of Justice who would lay down their lives {and did} for Black People.
{There are many such People of European descent who fought to end Apartheid in
South Africa as well.} I think it is a sorry thing that some of our Black leaders
and Black Nationalists forget these so-called White People and write them out
of our History like we as Black People have been written out of much of world
History when we play a major part in it, in actuality. You don't see any of
this talked about much on TV? I can't wait to see what Our New African American
Smithsonian History & Cultural Museum
on the Mall in The District will look like. We can fight and bicker, but
we still have some things. I have NOT seen the statue of Martin Luther King
Junior up-close & personal as yet. {Did you know that sometimes during the
week Stevie Wonder makes a Cherry Picker available for Blind People to be
lifted up to feel the face of the King Statue? This is true. } The pix of Black
Kings and African Empresses are a fantastic Way to build self-esteem,
self-awareness, Black Pride, Black
Cultural Pride, self-pride and better values in ourselves, our elders
and our children. I hope you will
forgive me for sometimes being so serious about our situation as Black People, I
guess my frustration level remains high as I have been effectively blocked out
of the economic growth I so richly deserve for 35 years of service to the poor,
Black & oppressed, but GOD knows full well what I have done and I am
rewarded with another breath of life each minute and a family of church
friends, close personal family and other friends that is just superb. I would
not wana-be anyone else in the world for any amount of money. You can keep
Donald Trump & Oprah. They are blinded by greed and what they think is
meaningful self-achievement, but what is really exploitation and running over
the little guys and little gals. I very much hope the Jehovah Witnesses are
correct when they say GOD will come back and give us a new word and not destroy
our planet which took thousands of years to formulate. If you get a chance, please read ``African
World Revolution,'' by The Late Professor John Henrick Clark It is one of the
best books I have ever read. {You can't get this at some Black book stores, but
you can get ZANE. This is why we wonder in the forest when we should be ruling
the world again. Write me for a book
list. BrotherTracy11@GMail.Com. Ashe'
