Millions For Reparations Rally: They Owe Us!
By Conrad W. Worrill
TBWT Contributor
Article Dated 6/9/2002
The Millions For Reparations Rally that will be held on August 17, 2002, the 115th birthday of the Honorable Marcus Mosiah Garvey, in Washington, D.C. promises to be one of the most historic gatherings of African people in America.
Day-by-day, African people in America are becoming more familiar with the concept of reparations and what it means to our continued struggle in America for self-determination, liberation, independence, and freedom. Therefore, we must be clear that reparations means repair for the damages inflicted on a people or a nation.
In pursuit of this repair, we are conscious of the fact we must engage in the process of assuming responsibility for repairing ourselves that includes: changing the way we think, supporting our own institutions, particularly financially, supporting our families, supporting our own Black business enterprises, cleaning up our own communities, and changing the way we relate to, and think of, each other as a people. These are just a few of the internal repairs we must constantly work on.
In this connection, part of our internal repair is to struggle, fight, mobilize, and organize to demand external reparations from those governments, corporations, and institutions that are responsible for our historical and continuing state of oppression. Just as Jewish people proclaim ââ¬ÅNever Forget,ââ¬Â African people should do no less.
We should ââ¬ÅNever Forgetââ¬Â that ââ¬ÅThey Owe Us!ââ¬Â Part of our internal repair is to consciously understand that, ââ¬ÅWe Are Owedââ¬Â and have a historic responsibility to demand reparations from those forces of white supremacy that continue to benefit from what they did to us that lingers on as part of the vestiges of our enslavement.
As we prepare for our participation in the Millions For Reparations Rally on August 17, 2002, we should be clear that They Owe Us For:
1. The Trans Atlantic Slave Trade and Slavery - The United Nations World Conference Against Racism declared that the Trans Atlantic Slave Trade and Slavery were Crimes Against Humanity. Crimes against humanity have no statute of limitations.
2. Expropriation of Our Labor- For more than 250 years, we were forced to work for free. Our free labor was a major ingredient in the building of America and its wealth as a nation. Also, the thousands of white individuals and their familiesââ¬â¢ accumulated wealth that continues to benefit them as a result of our free labor.
3. Slave Code Laws- The slave owners developed their own codes of what they could do to enslaved African people in America that permeated throughout the emergence of this country. In many ways, informal slave codes exist today (racial profiling).
4. Destruction of the African Family- The Trans Atlantic Slave Trade and Slavery had a devastating impact on destroying and dismantling African families.
5. Raping of African Women- Our capture and enslavement provided white men with the power to rape African women and girls by the thousands without reprisal.
6. Fugitive Slave Laws- When our enslaved ancestors resisted their enslavement and fled plantations, the government of this country sanctioned laws and policies that supported the capture and return of so-called runaway enslaved Africans. The Dred Scott Decision should be consulted to fully understand the implications of the Fugitive Slave Laws.
7. Colonizing of Our African Culture- Created systems by law and societal practices that forbade African people, in our captured state, to engage in our traditional spiritual cultural practices.
8. KKK Night Riders and Lynchings- The Ku Klux Klan was established in the late 1860s as a secret society whose mission was to exterminate, by any means necessary, African people in America. They were known to have been responsible for the lynching and murdering of thousands of African men, women, and children.
9. The 13th and 14th Constitutional Amendments- The abolishment of slavery was really a constitutional scam and the 14th Amendment that allegedly made African people citizens of America was imposed on us. We were never asked if we wanted to be citizens.
10. Denied Our 40 Acres and a Mule- We didnââ¬â¢t get it! It was sold down the river and the land was given to white confederate soldiers.
11. Jim Crow Laws-The Jim Crow Policies of America became the fabric and foundation of American society after the period of Reconstruction. Jim Crow Laws and Policies reinforced the foundation of white supremacy and Black inferiority in every aspect of American society.
12. Fighting and Dying In Imperialist and White Supremacist Wars- We fought and died for the freedoms of others and were denied our own freedoms and civil rights.
13. Assassination of Black Leaders- Malcolm X, Dr. King, Fred Hampton, and Mark Clark to name a few.
14. COINTELPRO- This was a government program, established by the FBI, under the direction of J. Edgar Hoover, designed to destroy the Black Power Movement of the 1960s and 70s.
15. Crack Epidemic- Research reveals the United States Government, through the CIA, targeted Black communities for the dispensing of Crack Cocaine.
16. Criminalizing Our Youth- It should be obvious that the aim of the Prison Industrial Complex is to Criminalize Our Youth to insure a young and viable work force for this multibillion-dollar industry.
17. Jailing of Freedom Fighters- The incarcerating of our Freedom Fighter thus, making them Political Prisoners.
18. & 19. Centuries of Mis-Education and Mental Atrocities- This has caused serious damage to our people, which continues to cause much mental confusion about our true reality as an African people in America and around the world.
I am sure, as we approach August 17, 2002, you can add to this humble list of why ââ¬ÅThey Owe Us!

Stupid.
They were paid. They couldn't negotiate their pay scale, but that's hardly the same thing.

Exactly the opposite. In North America, slaveowners encouraged marriage, and marriage and legitimacy rates among blacks were far higher than they are today in the absence of slavery. See Time on the Cross, for example.

How interesting, then, that in North America so few choose to avail themselves of this opportunity.

We've already given the racist animals trillions of dollar in racial prefences in the last generation and they were owned nothing for slavery in the first place. And, blacks are a huge burdon to America and thus if anything owe whites.
But, what does reason have to do with it?

Hmmm, I've seen some of that work. And I wouldn't pay for it either.

"African people in America"
Interesting, they are no longer "African-Americans" but "African people in America". Does that make them squatters, conquerers, illegal aliens, what?

Reparations? You Betcha!! ââ¬Â¦.They Owe Us, Big Time
I want my country back. You know, that great place that was America. Not a day passes without someone commenting on how degraded our country has become, yet Americans are fearful when they itemize just EXACTLY what those changes have been, and WHO is responsible. Well, let's seeââ¬Â¦. The USA I was raised in was whiter, less violent, more honest, Christian, and less influenced by Blacks, Jews and homosexuals.
Hey, it's the truth. Now let's explore what blacks, Jews and homosexuals do to our country.
In the past two weeks, we have seen the print and television media savage the new administration and their followers for being White and Christian. Tom Brokaw made snide references to the Bush "klan" heading to WASP "enclaves". Paul Begala described the Red voting block as ignorant, racist and violent with one broad, sweeping brush. Now comes Gene Weingarten, a Jew at the Washington post who said pretty much the same stuff in a nasty column the day after the inaugural. Read it at [url=http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/style/columns/belowthebeltway/A9533-2001Jan17.html]http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/style...-2001Jan17.html[/url]. When White Christians make sweeping generalizations about groups based upon individual acts of a few, they are roundly denounced and demonized as "haters" and dangerous bigots. When Jews, Blacks and homosexuals do the same thing, they are published in the country's premiere publications.
Philip Weiss, another Jew, writes, in the New York Observer (http://www.freerepublic.com/forum/a3a671e670504.htm), "Don't hold your breath" waiting for Jews in a Bush cabinet. The tone of the article was clearly a swipe at the Bush administration and Christians in general, as anti-Semites. This smarmy bastard even drew comparisons between the "ignorant gun-toting Christians at Waco, and the "pogroms" against Jews in the last century. [could it be those "pogroms" began as acts of self-defense?]
The next week we had Rabbi's describing a proposed Christian theme park in Florida as "dangerous", together with another round of pooh pooh's over the impregnated aid to the "reverend" Jackson. ["He got da itch, so got him some bitch!", sniff his defenders]
The REAL kicker for me, however, was the unmitigated gall of Clinton telling Israeli's that citizenship for Palestinians would destroy the nature and purpose of the Jewish state. THIS - from the man who flooded our country with breeding illiterati from every sewer on the planet, in an effort which has now forever altered the majority of our once proud nation. Clinton, his Jewish cabinet AND administration have further destroyed the homogenous nature of a once proud Christian nation. And they do it with impunity.
These are Anti-Christs. There is no other word for it. What else to call it? When Blacks, Jews Homosexuals and Socialists make these outrageous claims about the white majority, there is only silence - silence and cheering from the beneficiaries of their bigotry. We call it anti-white, anti-Christian, and anti-White European. No -- the word we are searching for is Anti-Christ.
Item: A largely Jewish ACLU is now threatening to sue any municipality that doesn't banish the Boy Scouts. It matters not that the Supreme Court has decreed that freedom of association trumps their homosexual agenda for our children.
Item: Alan Dershowitz writes a book urging Jews not to marry outside their own faith and ethnicity. Yet a single visit to a white religious college that wants the same privilege for their students is cause for vilification and a mandatory apology by a cabinet appointee. Black only, or Jewish colleges? - an admirable cause.
Black and Homosexual Clubs? - noble ventures. Christian prayer groups? - Dangerous, hateful and exclusionary.
The New OJ World The Anti-Christs have taken over our judiciary as well. We have OJ justice for blacks by black only juries, yet white juries are typically demonized as racist when they convict the black killers, rapists, and thieves who routinely savage our once quiet neighborhoods. No one in congress wants to look into the tax exempt shenanigans of Jesse Jackson, yet we hear rumblings from Anti-Christs that government must take away the tax-exempt status of websites who just LINK to political action groups.
A new scam has been legitimized in Palos Hills Illinois [not 10 miles from the place of my birth] A couple has successfully bilked a landlord for $64,000 in an anti discrimination suit, charging that they were denied housing because their 6 year old son was black. The proof? -Said child tried to set himself on fire, saying it was HIS fault they didn't get the house.
Enough is enough. I'm tired of being labeled, and bullied, lied to and scammed by, the thought police, the holocaust junkies, and homosexual activists who charge that there is something wrong with ME. THEY publish hateful rhetoric, yet I am the hater. THEY preach inclusion, while they practice discrimination. THEY prey on our children, yet I am not allowed to flee.
HERESIES/R/US Last month I received a record number of proposals of marriage from carolontheweb.com readers. Most suitors confessed they were already married -- but they want me to know they WOULD marry me if their wives would let them. I appreciate that. My essays on multi-culturalism and anti-white racism strike a lonely chord with readers who seem starved for straight talk and common sense opinions on the subject. I speak the unspeakable and print the unprintable. I say it like it is. And my readers love me for it.
I discovered the folly of selling words by publishing a newspaper. If you sell words, they must be packaged. And if you package em, they lose their freshness. Buyers of words insist on 'standards', but freshness is never one of them. People who pay for words know they have the power to influence which words will be sold. This is the game of the Anti-Christs. And they are masters at it. So now I write because I'm - well - pissed off.
Anyone who gives a tinkers farthing about the future of our civilization, should be pissed off. I've been in a permanent funk since about November of 1992, when a powerful, highly toxic counter-culture of Anti-Christs, launched a successful search and destroy mission on the traditional values, which produced the miracle that was America. Although these misfits, miscreants and perverts owed their very existence to the successful white conservative foundation of the country, they seized the occasion of an unusual three-way race for the American Presidency, to launch a destructive coup against MY America.
When these revolting rebels captured just 43% of the vote in the 3-way race, no one in the press reminded them that they didn't win a majority and thus, had no mandate. So the bastard child of an inbred Arkie, seized the country, her courts, newspapers and television, for an 8-year, all out, non-stop assault on everything we hold dear. And it's still not over.
We may be rid of the Commander-In-Heat, but his demonic, insatiable followers have been so emboldened by his lawlessness, that they still control our movies, TV, newspapers, the judiciary, academia, and much of our future. Dummy GOPers are so fearful of Jewish hate speech, and black or homosexual dogma, that they cannot combat the demons effectively. And they ARE demons --demonizing all things White, Anglo, traditional, and Christian, in favor of the failed ethnicities and cultures of the Middle East, Africa and Latin America.
No Brainer of the Day As Jews asserted more influence on our country and politics, we began to have the same wars, conflict and hatreds they have fomented in EVERY host country they have visited. The more Africans we acquired, the more like Africa we became. Ditto for Latin America. I don't have to tell readers what happens to societies filled with homosexuals and statists. Why must we learn all these lessons over and over and over again??
I am a white Anglo-American. I live in the Red Zone. I like White Anglo-American morality and self-governance. It's what I was taught. White Christian values were good to my family and me. Men married women, and stayed to raise their children. Our house was unlocked. Ditto for mailboxes, down at the end of the lane. Car keys were left on the seat. We had a community garden. Apple, peach, and mulberry trees fed the neighborhood. My horse lived in the paddock behind my bedroom window, under an apple tree.
My mom was Donna Reed in a babushka. Dad was a milkman when milkmen were self-employed salesmen for real dairies. He sold butter by the tub, eggs and cream. We built our own home and lived without debt. My mom was the Welcome Wagon Hostess; dad was the director of the local theatre group. AND --hold on to your blood sugar -- My dog was a Border Collie named Shep.
The 30 years I've spent in the West were much like the suburban Illinois of my youth. In "Red" America you don't have to prepay your gasoline. [This is a shorthand measure of any town] I don't want to live anywhere where enough customers steal their gas, that we all pay the price.
In an aside..I remember once, the sheriff came into the local bar and restaurant to tell everybody to "Listen UP!" His big announcement was that he WOULD start prosecuting for car theft if locals kept taking somebody else's vehicle to drive home before closing. He shook his finger at all of us, saying he was sick of hunting for cars at 2 A.M, just because somebody walked down to town, and then was too tired, or drunk, to walk home. [You gotta love a town like that. We were all guilty as charged. BUT, we told him; we ONLY took trucks from those who really deserved it. And hell, we left em just a few blocks up the hill -didn't we?]
That was youthful crime in Homogenous White America. It's gone. And I'm pissed. I'll compare passport stamps with anyone. I've seen a whole lot of the world, and it can be described as an ongoing multi-ethnic hate crime with museums. AND it's being delivered to us by the planeload - by our enemies - who tell us the problem is US.
So no, Mr's Weiss, Weingarten, Begala, and everybody else with bergs, ski's and precious metals in their surnamesââ¬Â¦. YOU are the problem. [Offended readers Go-Choke-On-It Remember those nasty, sweeping generalities about Reds?]
I have zero problems with people of any color who share my values. The problem has never been melanin, but the toxicity of failed cultures of unlike peoples who are swamping the lifeboat of our Republic. I don't give a horses petuti which God you worship OR if your genetic heritage is Middle Eastern, Latin American or equatorial. I will NOT, however, sit idly by and watch you manipulate everything we see, hear, eat, smell, or speak, while you position yourselves and your race pimps in the power elite for the express purpose of manipulating the politics of MY country to YOUR advantage, in a war against ME.
I am an unapologetic and quite proud White American of European heritage. WE have created the last best hope for mankind in an experiment called America. Our infectious recipe for equal parts liberty and responsibility created this great republic. Immigrants from the failed societies of Africa, Asia and the Middle East must either assimilate or perish. They cannot and WILL NOT be allowed to spread their poisonous practices any longer. And - we must civilize the ones we have before we take on any more.
The crime stats on black on white crime are irrefutable evidence that we need a breather from any more "diversity", foisted upon us by those caring multi-culturalists among us, with their double, and triple standards for behavior for all.
So you don't have to writeââ¬Â¦. I can hear the knee slapping as I type. --- "You GO Girl! - Right on Lady!! - Right ON!!
Amen! Amen! Amen!

Rather than skulking around on boards where we chat with fifty or so other people who we can do little but agree with, we will have fifty million or so angry and confused middle Americans with a renewed interest in race.
Wintermute fails to promote a response to the true injustice of the present order, wherein the historic degradation of imported negroes, through their slavemasters' access to female slaves, has not been redressed in any formal, organized fashion.
We could publish suggested logistical arrangements, in avoidance of traffic congestion in major metropolitan areas, whereby suburban husbands could drop off their wives and daughters in inner-city residential districts in a coordinated fashion, and recover such as had survived after having provided appropriate compensation and redress of grievance.

I too have to disagree with WM, and -while I suspect Neo's tongue is firmly in cheek- must add that human slavery is indeed a black mark on our past (however, I don't restrict the blame to the South alone....the North lined their pockets both before and after emancipation, plus got to wear the mantle of an Indignant Righteousnesss that they in no way earned or actually felt.)
It should be pointed out that every Back-To-Africa movement in the 150 years since has utterly failed, in large part due to blacks' refusal to budge from this the land of their once-servitude and subsequent persecution. Many's the time I've considered the modern shanty-hut, lean-to governments of Africa, so inept, barbarous & superstitious that a strong wind can and does topple them every so often, and thought that an influx of American blacks, who've at least been sufficiently exposed to enough white society, white education and white civilization to give them several legs up on the natives, could not just take over the continent in short order but run it more efficiently than the cannibals-with-gold-braid there now. Yet the very same people who wail 'we were kings and princes kidnapped from our motherland' would rather stay here gnawing hog-nogs, dreaming of fly hoochee girls and punching a civil service clock in the ever-present shadow of their 'oppressors', than reclaim their 'kingdoms' and rule themselves.
Horowitz says that's because blacks have it better here than anywhere on Earth at any point in history. I agree, but I'd replace 'better' with 'easier'.

Carol's naivete is symptomatic of our difficulty in comprehending our circumstance and organizing to remedy it. The following remarks more accurately reflect the reality of American origins:
Classical economics, now referred to as "Laissez-faire" or "Free Enterprise" or "Libertarian" economics, has long purported to offer a formula for the rightly-understood-interest of law-abiding individuals. Adam Smith's oft-derided notion of the "Invisible Hand" is an attribute of this aspiration to the resolution of mankind's seemingly intractable ethical dilemmas. The basic concept that the defense of property rights is the only requirement for state action in an economically competitive environment has the implication, in the face of the prospect of conspiracy in restraint of trade, that the latter will always be circumvented by the resort to a "frontier" of "property" in values, technology, or resources (land, labor, capital).
It is by virtue of the historic English command of the seas that laissez-faire, with its competitive individualism and political naivete and vulnerability, became the ethical orientation of world-wide colonial Anglo-America. If there was a domestic problem of political economy, it could always be sent to the resource frontier, i.e., exported to new lands around the globe. And the fact that the "ethnic cleansing" of the new land could be accomplished, for the most part, by the colonists themselves rather than by the state, enabled the state, such as it was, to retain its relative ethical purity, naivete, and vulnerability to penetration by conspirators, economic and political.
Imagine the case if the present Anglo population of the world had been geographically confined to Europe. Wouldn't it have been the English, and not the French or Germans, to have exploded across the Continent in a reproduction of bloody imperial consolidation of the culture? As it is, the Anglo's know only the wisdom and virtue of good fortune in demographic circumstance, and are but self-righteous, overgrown children at the best of times - and are a herd of "individuals" to be stampeded over other ethnic cleansers, at the worst. Somehow, the laissez-faire model of original property rights always seems to assume that Beaver Cleaver's neighborhood was granted by God - rather than by a prior instance of ethnic cleansing, conveniently dropped from memory or rationalized, in its own way, as aboriginal population management.

"Every elevation of the type 'man,' has hitherto been the work of an aristocratic society and so it will always be--a society believing in a long scale of gradations of rank and differences of worth among human beings, and requiring slavery in some form or other. Without the pathos of distance, such as grows out of the incarnated difference of classes, out of the constant out-looking and down-looking of the ruling caste on subordinates and instruments, and out of their equally constant practice of obeying and commanding, of keeping down and keeping at a distance--that other more mysterious pathos could never have arisen, the longing for an ever new widening of distance within the soul itself, the formation of ever higher, rarer, further, more extended, more comprehensive states,..."

Ok, I was thinking along these lines. 40 years ago, there were doubtless voices calling for passing civil rights legislation because "once whites see the outrageous abuses that will doubtless ensue, they will surely rise up to seize back their country". Then it was affirmative action. Let's push that through, because once white America has their nose rubbed in color-based hiring and promotions, she would surely reach her limit and revolt. Ditto with every other social horror and/or knucklehead policy guaranteed to either tip the demographic balances or mongrelize/degrade white society and our kids while we wait for the demographics to adjust. Every new shovel of gravedirt in the Old America's face has been touted as the necessary vicious tonic to awaken us into restoring the Republic...except that it never does. To the 'worse-is-better' crowd, every NEXT outrage is devoutly to be wished for because surely THIS will be the straw to break the camel's back. The result is white acquiescence grows ever more passive, ever more compliant to whatever it's told.
You know what repamarations will accomplish? Even-higher taxes....still-wealthier 'community activists'.....and the exact same uneducable, sullen, foot-shuffling 'victims' demanding preferences, apologies, special holidays, a festive ribbon around their free cheese, etc. Oh, yeah, one other thing. It will further demoralize and deflate what white people are left. Hell, we might get more wiggers out of the deal! It's simply a measure of how far we've fallen that this kind of math (enough consecutive defeats=eventual victory) actually makes sense to a few people, but I believe there is no big victory without small victories first. Only in wrestling do an accumulation of crippling blows act as an invigorating wake-up call to the good guys, but wrestling is fake. In real life, after you hit a guy for the 57th straight time, he stays down for good.
Of course I didn't "show my work". The assignment was "prove 2+2=5"!

Not in the fantasy. The reality would be that of our advocacy having no impact, while making a moral concession and an insincere proposal.
As long as the peasants remain such, condemning slavery and genocide as "evil" - believing that all enemies of Zion are "insane" - all concessions to the morality of the common confirm them in resistance to adoption of the warrior spirit.
