Hello All!
WHAT CRT STANDS FOR:
Ever since Barack Obama became President of the United States (well actually prior to that if you count Regan, Bush, Bush 2, and the 8 years they spent trying in vain to destroy Bill Clinton)
the Repuglycons have lost their total minds, and have shown that they
are not above putting low people in high places, if it makes it possible
for them to stay in power. They have willfully, blatantly, openly and
notoriously flaunted every rule in the proverbial book - including the
sainted "Constitution of the United States - which is supposed to be
sacrosanct - to get what they want, regardless of who and how many they
have to trample on to do so.

| Justice in America is defnitely not Blind or Just |
Critical
Race Theory posits from a legal standpoint that not only is Justice in
American legal history not blind, she's been sleeping with the lawyers
all along - making sure that if anyone says the deck is stacked against
us, she pontificates a lot of bilgewater, and continues to stand on our
necks. (GDW)
During
the fifties it was Senator Joe McCarthy - or "Tail Gunner Joe, as they
called him (nothing like a nickname to let you know that while they may
talk about him openly, they secretly supported him behind closed doors)
who used "Red-Baiting" to destroy the lives of thousands of innocent
people, under the guise of pretending to rid the US of Communism. No
lie was too big, no tactic too vile to prove the innocent guilty. And
this went on unabated until somebody finally Woke (T F) Up and said "This is madness; this is not what America is supposed to be about." SMH
Or
is it? There are about 23 Million Black people who would righteously
beg to differ with that statement. Having endured more than 400 years -
402 counting this year of 2022 - of racism, jim crowism, segregation,
deprivation, and lies at the hands of "law makers" who make the laws
specifically so that we won't progress, or gain equality, or get an
education, or VOTE - we've been dealing with this and moving forward
despite it. BTW, has anyone noticed that most of the lunatic fringe
exists in the US Senate? What's up with that? (IJS) Also, has anyone
noticed that New York has never had a Black US senator - male or
female? Hmmmm - Wonder why that is!
We
have endured John Bonehead Boehner, Newt Gingrich, even Mitch (the B*)
McConnell - each of whom has led the US Senate deeper and deeper into
the primordial ooze that is the swamp they are currently turning America
into. They want to create a mass of automatons who do their bidding,
and goose-step into history in much the same way Hitler did to Nazi
Germany. Interestingly enough they have sold their souls to the devil
in the personage of one D J T-rump, in order to do so - apparently not
caring how low he could or would go, how treacherous he would/could be,
how many lies he could tell; how he would/could and almost did overthrow
the government - in fact they are apparently more than willing to give
him a second chance at doing so - considering this massive blob is now
crisscrossing the country spreading lies and continuing to engender
racial racist rabid antagonisms in small, backwater, red neck
revisionist communities - i.e. the gullible underbelly of America. It
boggles the mind of most intelligent, normal people how T-rump was
allowed to be president - considering he committed every ethical
violation in the book - denigrating a fellow candidate Hillary Clinton;
urging people to smash his opponents in the face because he would pay
their legal fees; utilizing a known dictator, and enemy of the US to
tamper with the votes so that he would "win" the election of 2016 - and
then use his power to continually put low people in high places so they
could not challenge his stupidity. The (s)election of 2016 was truly
the indication that the US much touted constitution, ethics, and rules
had absolutely no meaning or validity whatsoever. In sports, if a team
violates a rule, or uses unnecessary roughage, etc., they could be
ejected, the scores removed, and/or they would forfeit the game. This
is what should have happened then - but NO! The mendicant was allowed to
play president and drag America to a new low. (Not gonna numerate them
for you - look it up)!
Then
in 2021 - after having every trick in the book, including hiring a
degenerate to destroy the US postal service - not only a major symbol of
US, but a federally protected division of the government - tampering
with the mail is a federal offense - to shut down postal services across
the US so voters could not do mail in votes - hopefully meaning those
sequestered from Covid would not be able to vote by mail, he spends the
rest of his lame duck period hatching a plan to overthrow the government
under the guise of his defeat was engineered - stolen - miscounted -
rigged - NOT! WE KICKED HIS BUTT AND THE SYCOPHANTS THAT SUPPORT HIM
OUT - well almost - it appears there were two blue dog dems who are more
repuglycon than the repuglycons, who have been a thorn in our backsides
since the election.
The
megalomaniacal fool is now using the pawns that is the senate to try to
make it impossible for Black People, Brown People, Independent People,
Intelligent People - namely us - from defeating his rabid racists from
once again dominating the Congress again. And here we are - with him
going across the country with his band of well paid menials; with the
assistance of the Paid Advertisement masquerading as the news nightly
extolling his most recent inanity - with the sycophants who wanna be him
so much they have lost all sense of propriety (Cruz, etc.) and dignity,
as they sell what soul they have left to this madness now by trying to
pass revisionist racist laws to prevent us from exercising our right and
responsibility to vote in various states that have absolutely no
validity except to prevent us from voting - how is this legal? How is
this ethical? How is this intelligent? How is this not racist? and
insane? How is this not subversive? And how is it that it is still
being allowed to continue? Why is it being allowed to continue?
The
main thing I don't want is to see us buying into the BS, and sitting
around as though we're defeated, acquiescing or equivocating, or
rationalizing their major maladjustment as though it's something that's
bound to happen; or copping out and talking about a mythological third
party or an independence party, when we know that currently there are
only two parties - and we have to pick the one that does the least
amount of damage. We didn't get this far by acquiescing or turning a
blind eye, or waiting to be saved. We looked at the situation, and
devised other means to get what we wanted done done. And this is
definitely of those times!
Most
of us are descendants of Ancestor/Angels who were enslaved in this
country. Most of them were forbidden to read, write, get an education,
because these caucasoid slave monsters knew that once we were able to do
so, there was no way they would be able to keep us enslaved. They knew
we were smarter, more intelligent, creative, talented, resilient than
they were - therefore the last thing they wanted us to have was an
education - even on the third grade level we could outsmart, out think
and outdo most of their most learned PhDs. We might not have had the
grammar, but we had the common sense and intelligence. So it should be
no surprise that they are coming for our educational autonomy - that
they are trying to revise what we know by attacking education, schools,
books, and anything that would further inform and enhance our
intelligence. They used Betsy DeVos to destroy a great deal of the
school system. Subsequently, we began to really learn the truth of what
happened to our Ancestor/Angels from Africa to here at the hands of
their ancestor/monsters, and subsequently at the hands of their
descendants in real time and began breaking down many of the codes in
their playbook by making sure we not only knew our history, but theirs
as well - and used that to effect the greatest voter turnout - four
times - Obama, Obama, the 2018 Midterm and Biden, 2020, and now if we
stay the course, don't get fooled by the meanstream media's bogus faux
news, we are in line to defeat them a fifth time if we show up and show
out and vote in overwhelming numbers in the upcoming 2022 MidTerm Voting
Elections - we will totally turn this country around for the better -
for our own good in particular - and the US in general.
They
are pulling out all the stops: T-rump's lying propaganda spreading
across the country, attacking our educational system, the teachers, the
libraries to stop them from teaching the true history of America by
attacking "Critical Race Theory" or CRT, in a manner that has
apparently been hyped so much that everyone is falling in lock step to
it - and trying to not be found guilty of teaching the TRUTH - lest they
lose their jobs, or funds, or homes, or, or, or, or...
The
real gristle of the whole cabal is based on a book that, until
recently, had little traction, or notice - CRITICAL RACE THEORY by
Richard Delgado was originally written in 1995; but originally
enunciated in the late 1970s by the late Derrick Bell, lawyer, political
activist and advocate, who basically enunciated CRT as a way of
"understanding how American racism has
shaped public policy, laws, education, and increased public awareness
about things like housing segregation, the
impacts of criminal justice policy in the 1990s, and the legacy of
enslavement on Black Americans." Education Weekly (https://www.edweek.org/leadership/what-is-critical-race-theory-and-why-is-it-under-attack/2021/05)
Now,
it was all right as long as it stayed in the hallowed halls of academia
- which it did for nearly 30 years, but the truth has begun to be
taught in real time in elementary schools, K-12, and now all the Karens,
their husbands, and the ultra conservative right wing nuts - aka
T-rump-a-lumpers, are waving their red flags all over the place.
Basically they want to keep their kids in blissful ignorance and are
looking to wipe out everything that even gives a hint that the South
wasn't a place where darkies sang happily in the fields while picking
cotton, and their great grand ancestors were sipping mint julips when
the war started, and Black people are really poor because they like
being that way. Heaven forbid they find out that Mr. Charlie hung his
Black neighbor from an acacia tree because he wanted his land; or that
there were laws passed to keep Black people from being able to read; or
there were actual laws that determined where Black people could and
couldn't live - laws that were only recently struck down by EXECUTIVE
ORDER by President Lyndon Baines Johnson - whose history and existence
they have consistently tried to eradicate in every form or fashion since
he betrayed the sacred trust of every rednecked Dixie Crat (original
Democrats) in the 1960s.
Most
of the Repuglycons don't want folks to know this! So they are
launching an all out offensive that would make Adolf Hitler proud!
These
turkeys are willing to pass heinous even more egregious laws that
totally violate the constitution to push history back into the dark
corner where they've tried to hide it for lo these many years - as if we
didn't already know what happened - that they are borderline (or
actually straight up) Nazis!! And they are so on the slippery slope
they are literally getting up crews of right wing plus conservative
females (the worst kind - make MTG look like Mary Poppins) foaming the
mouth because their kids are being taught the TRUTH!! As if somehow
their heads will explode when they learn that they are descendants of
monsters who mistreated people so they couldn't/wouldn't have to work.
They
are coming so close to the 1933 German Kristallnacht -(and no, it's not
a champagne drink) - that horrific event where Hitler loosed his rabid
dogs on innocent Jewish people in Nazi Germany because they were
beginning to grow and thrive - all under the guise of cleansing the
country of their version of Critical Race Theory. (https://www.pbs.org/wgbh/americanexperience/features/goebbels-burnings/)
All led by an individual who had fomented crimes against the country
viv a vis a riot and breaking to the Nation's Capitol to protect his
right to continue lying, stealing, consorting with known authoritarian
cretins in other countries that he "admired" because they could dictate
and he couldn't. So he got his henchmen to lather up an insurrection
against the government - and then lie and call it a peaceful protest;
much like what is being propagandized as a danger to the country by
actually teaching American History - the good, the bad, the ugly, the
unstable. (By the way, am I overstating the obvious if I say that had
Barack Obama done this insane treasonous act, he would have immediately
been tackled by all the Capitol police and thrown under the jails in
Leavenworth - that is if they didn't shoot him on site - so how is it
that the January 6 tribunal is still vacillating over pulling the lever
to apprehend and incarcerate the Orange Faced Fool? - IJS). And why
hasn't President Biden put a stop to the obvious violation of our
freedom to vote by issuing the EXECUTIVE ORDER OR PROCLAMATION,
immediately if not sooner?
The
problem is that the only thing they are focusing on is the historical
issues around slavery, without also realizing that both sides of history
are being taught in the schools - at least they used to be. There are
many redemptive, positive historical facts that are also being taught.
The problem is they only want that part to be taught and deny all the
rest. So teachers, scholars, educators are to be the brunt of their
condemnation - to be persecuted, punished, penalized and pushed out? I
Don't Think So!
I
also don't think we should allow them to get away with defining what
they're doing by pretending it's about education and what's being taught
in the schools. It's not unusual for people to become reactionary when
accused of doing the right thing by the wrong people. We get hung up
in their definitions - as though there aren't other ways to interpret
what they're trying to do. So let me help you see this in a different
light:
CRT (ALSO) STANDS FOR:
- Caucasoids Running (from the truth)
- Crazy Racist Transgressions
- Creepy Racist Tactics
- Conniving Racist Tactics
- Crass Racist Tactics
- Covering Racist Transgressions
- Colonizer Revisionist Tactics
- Covering Racist Tactics
- Concealing Real Truth
- Covering Racist Trauma
- Culpable Revisionist Terrorists
- Concealing Racist Torture
- Constitutional Rights Trampled
- Constitution Revisionist Tactics
- Collaborating (with) Racist Terrorists
- Covering (for) Racist Terrorists
- Concealing Racist Tracks
- Consorting (with) Racist Terrorists
- Creepy Repuglycan (Republican) Treachery
I
dare say one of the reasons they don't want true history taught in the
schools is because they would have to answer the question:
What
the F -K happened to the Original Real Republicans that Abraham Lincoln
established when he founded the Party in the 1860s to go up against the
current party at the time? The Original Real Republicans were
abolitionists who worked alongside Lincoln to abolish Slavery. They were
the ones who worked with him to write the EMANCIPATION PROCLAMATION (A
PRESIDENTIAL EXECUTIVE ORDER) Freeing Slaves in combative states, and
later throughout the entire US - and looking to give them reparations
for what they had endured by giving each family 40 acres and a mule so
they could start out and begin to build on their own? As the late Oscar
Brown, Jr. said - "I want my 40 Acres and my goddam mule!!"
They're afraid their children, in an act of contrition, would actually
turn around and level the playing field by keeping the promises their
ancestors had no intention of keeping - Social media is such that these
kinds of truths spread exponentially - and the sweeping under the rug
days are pretty much over.
They
really don't want to have to confront the most egregious miscarriage of
justice and violation of the constitution (which by the way they now
violate easily and with ease over and over - and nobody seems to be of a
mind to stop them) each and every time they try to abrogate our right
to vote in real 2022 time by passing laws that Lyndon B. Johnson 100+
years later enacted through his own PRESIDENTAL EXECUTIVE ORDER - giving
us (again) the right to vote in free, fair elections, with out any
penalty, threat, or other deleterious machinations to intimidate or
prevent us of our right to vote.
The ACLU recently stated: "There can no longer be any doubt that America's justice system is not blind. Indeed, as today's report from the nation's oldest, largest and most diverse civil and human rights coalition reveals, 'lady justice' sees skin color all too well. The report documents that black and brown Americans are routinely shunted to ever harsher treatment at every stage in the criminal justice system while their white counterparts are handled preferentially."
They
really don't want any further educational programs, classes, forms,
reports, or whatever because they would then have to answer the question
"what is your endgame?" What is your real plan for the future of
America? Who the Eff are you? Has America already been infiltrated by
people disguised as Americans, who are now poised to take over, and
overthrow this government that purports to be by the people, for the
people, and of the people? Just how many shils does T-rump already have
planted throughout the country, low people put in high places to aid in
this debacle, unless and until President Biden wakes up, stop trying
to be the "nice guy, and placate everybody, and really sees what it is
time to pass the most up to date comprehensive PRESIDENTIAL EXECUTIVE
ORDER ever, to provide for and restore voting rights to Black and Brown
people - all of whom are American Citizens. And he needs to do it yesterday, because tomorrow may be too late.
Who's
to say this megalomaniac will even wait for the Midterm Elections to
take place? Who's to say he's not trying to whip his next group of
insurrectionists into a lather to storm the Nation's Capitol once
again? Who's to say he isn't currently planting them in strategic areas
to cause disruptions, disturbances by his own demented version of "by
any unscrupuous means necessary?
Of
course we can neither wait for President Biden, nor can we stand here
like deer in the headlights, frozen in fear of what might, or might not
happen. We don't have that kind of time. We actually already know what
time it is. It's time for us to take action - to make our own plans -
even if it's reactionary to some extent - and make sure we're more than
prepared to deal with this madness. We know they have enacted ID laws,
no helping each other to the polls laws, closing down polls in key Black
areas, gerrymandering, and all kinds of things because they are so
afraid of Black people they want to make sure they can use this as a way
to curtail our progress.
Guess what? As Melanie Campbell
said at the recently held National Action Network (NAN) on voter
suppression: "This is not the first time we've been through this at the
hands of these kinds of racists. We didn't let it stop us then, we
won't let it stop us now. We know how to go old school - back to
basics. We have a means for dealing with everything they say or put in
the way to stop us & WE STILL VOTE REGARDLESS OF WHAT THEY DO. We
plan in advance, we learn the rules, follow them to the letter, and make
sure we document any and all attempts on their part to stop us from
voting and WE VOTE ANYWAY!"
The
Black Women for Positive Change, is one of many organizations
throughout the United States that is gearing up for this battle for the
Souls of America - we are joining forces, preparing to help each other
in the various midterms across the country - energizing our bases to
make sure NO VOTE IS THWARTED, OR LEFT BEHIND, AND EVERY VOTE IS COUNTED
FAIRLY AND COMPLETELY. We are making sure everybody knows that BLACK
PEOPLE ARE UNDER SIEGE AND THEY'RE TRYING TO TAKE AWAY OUR RIGHTS DURING
THE MIDTERM PRIMARY AND ELECTION OF 2022 - and we simply cannot allow
that to happen y'all!! They are working with other organizations to
host Victory VoterCades throughout low voter turnout communities across
the country - to alert and encourage folks to vote - early if possible,
by mail if necessary, and in person as a show of force, unity and
solidarity: www.blackwomenforpositivechange.org;
Or,
start an organization in your community and begin galvanizing your
family, friends, neighbors, fellow church family, faternities,
sororities, civic organizations, clubs, senior citizens, high schoolers
who'll be 18 by the time the primaries come around - and others to get up, get together, get out and Vote.
And if you're in Ohio, your primary is Tuesday, May 3rd - I hope you're already on top of it.
We
are all targeted - none of us are exempt - it took all of us to do what
we did in 2008, 2012 - we blew it in 2016, figured it out in 2018
(midterms that turned the tables on T-rump, and 2020 when we kicked him
out. Now let's make sure we keep the momentum up in 2022 and make it a
three-peat - sweep the rest of his cronies out the door, and this time
make sure going forward they don't have a chance to rear their ugly
heads again.
And
remember, Freedom ain't Free - Dr. Greer, who was also on the NAN
panel, suggest that we remember this, and begin a kind of Political
Tithing in much the same way we pay tithes in church, to help support
the candidates who would work in our best behalf - campaigns cost major
dollars - if we want results, we have to help there as well - maybe not
thousands or millions, but $5.00 to $25.00 at a time per week - which is
how President Obama won - making sure those with lower income
situations could have a part in the victory right along with mega buck
contributors.
The
late John Lewis said always be ready to get into GOOD TROUBLE - you
have to stand for yourself and your families; you can't be defined by
those who want to enslave you, treat you like dirt, destry you. You
have to be prepared to get into good trouble - and the next time they
come up with another CRT accusation, you can come up with some of your
own:
- CRT CAN ALSO STAND FOR:
- COURAGE REAPS TREASURES
- CHALLENGE RACIST TACTICS
- COALITIONS REPEL TERRORISTS
- CONNECT (with the) REAL TRUTH
- CONFOUND RACIST TERRORISTS
THESE ARE JUST FOR STARTERS - I'M SURE YOU CAN COME UP WITH OTHERS!!
If
you do, please share! - you must always relanguage the terms by which
the negative tries to confine you and define you. Self determination
and self definition are two of the hallmarks of a free people who are
unafraid to do what's necessary for their own survival and progress.
And one of the main hallmarks is that of our right to vote, have a say
in what happens in the country where we pay taxes, raise our children,
worship, and go about our daily lives.
And oh yes, don't let them continue to distort the truth, buy the book and read it yourself:

Always
remember to vote in every election, no matter how insignificant it
might seem, we have the power to change things drastically - if we
increase the turn out of this 2022 MIDTERM BY 25%, WE WIN -
And above all remember:
OUR BLACK MIDTERM VOTES MATTER!!
and
MIDTERM VOTES MATTER -
NO MATTER WHAT YOU DO -
VOTE BLUE!
ESPECIALLY IN 2022!!
NOW THAT YOU KNOW
WHAT ARE YOU GOING TO DO ABOUT IT?
Stay Blessed &
ECLECTICALLY BLACK
