When "The Newly Arrived" Finally Gets it! #ADOS #immigrants

"The problem often lies in the failure to understand both the historical and the institutional dimensions of marginalization that African Americans have experienced."
"African American struggles in the United States could not be simply limited to how the US economy was entirely built on the shoulders of a people who were instantly turned into [racial] slaves and were accordingly deprived their history, culture, and ability to exercise ...
... full control over their bodies and minds."
Anthony Bogues, Brown University: What is Racial Slavery?

My Name Is John Punch: I am the first LEGAL #racialslave in human history.

I do not remember much about my past. That said, I do remember I wass born in the most beautiful place in the world —Africa.

I don't recall where in Africa.

Maybe Cameroon, Gabon or the Ivory Coast.

Within the jungles of white supremacy exist a silver lining: They truly believe their encountering "inferior" races --monkeys. And, that's not necessarily a bad thing.

Chris Rock on 'He speaks so well'

"Whenever Colin Powell is on the news, white people give him the same compliments: 'How do you feel about Colin Powell?', 'He speaks so well! He's so well spoken. I mean he really speaks so well!' Like that's a compliment.”
He speaks so well' is not a compliment, okay? 'He speaks so well' is some shit you say about retarded people that can talk."
“What do you mean he speaks so well? He's a fucking educated man! How the fuck did you expect him to sound, you dirty motherfucker?”

Colorblind Racism

“If race disappears as a category of official division, as it has in most of the world, this will facilitate the emergence of a plural racial order where the groups exist in practice but are not official recognized - and anyone ....
... and anyone trying to address racial division is likely to be chided for racializing the population.”
