ORIGINAL THOUGHT

Which Way Is It, Who Owe Whom?

Hoteph My Beloved Sisters And Brothers:

Black Woman And Man, know the tree by the fruit it bear, now that mean not only by how some one act and behave in life, it also mean how some one Think, through conversation as well.

As you know, my position is very clean and clear on what I think about Reparation and how it got to become the most compelling issue to be raised by the AfroDescendants in america, as well as other parts of the Diaspora.

So tell me my beloved, should we just sit back and allow those of us who have no respect for Reparation to say all sorts of foolish and unreasonable things regarding Reparation and the action that took place during Chattel Slavery, in our pursuit to escape that horror?

What true Afrikan would raise the question, who owe Reparation to our Enslaved Afrikan Ancestors in america?

To all of the freedom fighters among our people during that most evil Time for us Black Afrikans, their efforts need not to be tainted by suggesting that the success of their action was all because of the help of white people and we owe white people for what success was experienced during those Times of escape from the hand of the enslavers.

Have we forgotten so quickly the spiritual aspect of our life and action and even though whites may have been compelled to participate in the effort to rescue some of our Enslaved Ancestors, do not confuse the energy of God with a decision of white folks action during that Time of Chattel Slavery.

Everything white folks did to make the journey to safety and not freedom, for the Chattel Enslaved, during Chattel Slavery, was in my understanding an act of trying to pay a debt they knew was being mounting each moment that our Enslaved Ancestors was held in that devilish institution call Chattel slavery and whether we know it or not, such action was to be and the participants in that action had no say so in the matter.

When we are able to conceive of and understand the unfolding of events and in this case, Chattel Slavery, from a Spiritual awareness, then we will not be going around misinterpreting the action of white folks when they make an attempt to correct the evil action of some of their family members toward Black people.

Granted, every good deed and every perfect deed is the action of an unselfish and responsible mind and such a behavior is caused by an energy that is beyond the action and decision of mankind, therefore what happen during Chattel Slavery Time, in an effort to cause some who was Enslaved by white folks, to reach a temporary haven of safety, was the action of the universal gods, thereby causing the players in such action to have no choice but to do what they did and yes we are thankful, but we most certainly do not owe white folks anything in this regard, Chattel Slavery in particular.

Now, let us deal with Reparation and who it is that is indebted to pay Reparation. It is a fool who would attempt to plant the seed of belief in the mind of the AfroDescendants in america, for purpose to cause the children of our Enslaved Afrikan Ancestors to believe that we owe our mothers and fathers who endured Chattel Slavery, Reparation.

Before I do, let me say, I purposely used the term belief because no sound thing True Afrikan could and would have come up with such an expression of a slave mentality to claim that we owe our Enslaved Afrikan Ancestors Reparation.

The children of our Enslaved Afrikan Ancestors are indebted to our Enslaved mothers and Fathers for only one thing and that is to take them back home to Afrika.

It is our Enslaved Afrikan Ancestors who have laid the foundation and given us the cause to demand the debt from the creators and implementers of Chattel Slavery, in the form and effort that Reparation so represent to our Enslaved Afrikan Ancestors.

Chattel Slavery is an act that has been carried out to destroy both mind and body of a segment of the Afrikan Family, who was in fact taken away from their home land against their will and was made to do the bidding of white folks, from sun up to sun down and all through the night, wearing the identity of being only worth 3/5 of a Hue - Man Being, the highest form of disrespect that can be shown from one human being to another Hue - Man Being.

You want to know who owe Reparation, the fact that a question is raised in this regard, by no way demean the issue of Reparation but it most certainly demean those who would raise such a question and then go a step further in suggesting that the victims is indebted to the victims themselves for the action of those who invented such a devilish institution as Chattel Slavery.

I am appealing to all true Black Nationalist, every time we see such foolishness attempting to be sowed in the mind of Black Folks concerning Reparation, we must respond with all of the vigor as the confusing deceivers, in their attempt to misguide us about the True meaning and purpose for Reparation, a scared and divine issue that it is.

It Is Time To Condemn The Lie And Elevate The Truth!!!

We Must Cause Trouble Until Our Liberation!!!

Complete Love To The Carbon Afrikan Nation.
