Thread on bizarre case of Robert Rozier: Star defensive end at UC Berkeley, 9th round NFL pick – Oh, and also "Black supremacist" cult member, and “Death Angel” serial-killer who was eventually put away for … check fraud under a California “three strikes” law.
Rozier was an outstanding high school athlete, which helps explain how he managed to get into one of America’s elite universities despite his 1.32 high school GPA and lack of a diploma.
Rozier seemed to enjoy his time at Berkeley. He styled himself the “Gorilla Pimp,” used drugs, contributed to the delinquency of a minor, and kept classmates on their toes with a quasi-Lovecraftian-named pit bull.
Rozier majored in – you guessed it – “Afro-American studies.” In class Rozier would have learned from the famed Professor Edwards that - despite enjoying a free ride at an elite university and a chance at a lucrative career - he was actually being cruelly exploited by Whitey.
Rozier was drafted by the Cardinals and played in a couple games in 1979. But he was a flop as a pro-football player. He drifted to the Canadian league, and then back to America, apparently stealing and committing fraud wherever he went – But somehow avoiding prison.
Sometime in the early 1980s Rozier fell-in with the fanatical “Nation of Yahweh” cult. The cult was led by Yahweh Ben Yahweh, who was “heavily influenced by the most extreme of Nation of Islam beliefs” and who borrowed ideas from the Black Hebrew Israelites.
A core tenant of the Yahweh cult ideology was that White people were devils who deserved to be killed. "He would say many times, 'How many of you all would kill a white person, how many of you would get ahead?" and everyone would raise their hand."
The cult carried on some useful community activity, and lucrative businesses. But behind the respectable facade was a vicious criminal organization. The cult got the attention of law enforcement after defecting members started turning-up gruesomely murdered.
As with Jim Jones’s People Temple in San Francisco, the ability to deliver Democrat votes outweighed concerns over criminality and fringe ideology. Even as rumors spread that the cult was a violent criminal enterprise, the Mayor of Miami actually declared “Yahweh Ben Yahweh Day.”
In the cult, the imposing Rozier was able to level-up to “Death Angel” status – a cult enforcer. The Death Angels executed disloyal cult member. They also were encouraged to kill random Whites and bring back victim body parts to as proof.
The wheels started coming off in October 1986 when Rozier was arrested at the scene of two cult murders. Evidence linked him to “Death Angel” killings of Whites. In exchange for leniency, Rozier offered to tell the testify about a long-list of murders committed by the cult.
Believing insider testimony was essential against the tightly-controlled cult, prosecutors offered Rozier a remarkable deal. The Death Angel would accept a 22-year sentence for four murders. Rozier (eventually implicated in seven murders) would be released after 10 years.
At trial, Rozier detailed multiple murders he had participated in. He recalled a Death Angel mission where he was sent by Yahweh to kill a random White person. “Any white devil would do.” Rozier brought back the victims ear - Yahweh was so please he gave Rozier a day off.
The trial resulted in conspiracy convictions for multiple cult members, and Yahweh was sentenced to 18 years. But on the whole, the case was a disappointment for the government. The jury acquitted or deadlocked on many other serious charges. They had found Rozier unconvincing.
Rozier served his 10 years in prison before disappearing into the Witness Protection program. But he resurfaced dramatically in 1999, when he was arrested for once again committing check fraud.
Rozier’s lawyers tried to convince the court that their serial-killer client should be let off without more jail time. But looking over the decades of fraud and murder - the judge had seen enough. He maxed-out Rozier with a 25 year to life sentence under the "three strikes" law.
Yahweh died in 2007. Rozier, now 67, is still in prison. Each in his own way is a testament to a dysfunctional criminal justice system, and to the Regime’s determination to look the other way when dealing with dangerous criminals who don’t fit the approved anti-White narrative.

The “De Mau Mau” gang terrorized the Chicago area in 1972: They murdered at least nine Whites - Including with home-invasions that drew comparisons to the Manson Family murders. 🧵/20
The origins of broader “Mau Mau” movement are somewhat murky. But it seems clear that several of the Chicago Mau Mau killers were disgruntled Vietnam veterans. This included Marines Ruben Taylor, Michael Clark, and Nathanial Burse.

Several of the Chicago Mau Maus met at Malcom X College. They managed to get expelled for intimidating and beating up teachers and fellow students.

Yankee-Irish conflict and the Boston Draft Riot of 1863: Refugees from the Great Famine caused Boston’s Irish population to explode - rising from a mere handful, to over a third of the city’s population.
One Yankee complained that Boston had become the “Dublin of America." 🧵/26
The city simply could not cope with the deluge. Poverty stricken and unskilled, the new arrivals were packed into crowded tenements. Disease and unsanitary conditions took a terrible toll. During a cholera epidemic, the life-expectancy of Irish males fell to fourteen years. 2/26
Not surprisingly, this tidal-wave of poverty-stricken Catholic immigrants did not receive a warm welcome from the Puritan-descended Yankees of Boston. The “shattering of Boston’s ethnic homogeneity” created an intense anti-Irish, anti-Catholic backlash. 3/26
White Flight from the Bronx – 1950 to 1980:
> The borough saw an explosive increase in crime, drug traffic, and arson during its demographic transformation.
🧵1/9 (h/t @Steve_Sailer )
The advent of NYC public transportation transformed the borough from farmland to a “streetcar suburb.” The population exploded with ethnic immigrants – Mainly Jews, but also Irish and Italians. Even during hard economic times The Bronx had been a safe place for families. 2/9
As late as 1950, The Bronx was still about 90 percent White, and the residents were enjoying life in their tranquil neighborhood. But The Bronx residents saw a rapid increase in crime and drugs as demographic change transformed life in the borough. 3/9
Historian William Henry Chamberlin discussing the post-WWII ethnic cleansing of ethnic-German civilians from Eastern Europe: “some fourteen million in all … driven from their homes … where their ancestors had lived for centuries …”
Short 🧵
"... perhaps as many as three million may have perished either as a result of outright massacre or from cold, hunger, and disease."
The horrific experience of an East Prussian woman was typical: Expelled from her home, and then robbed of food and clothing; traveling in train cars “littered with corpses.”
Years before the disaster of Forced Busing demolished Boston’s public school system, there were already warning signs of what was to come. The neighborhoods of Mattapan and Hyde Park got a preview of what “racial balance” integration would look like. It did not look promising. 🧵
In the mid-1960s Lewenberg Middle School in Boston's Mattapan neighborhood looked like an incredible success story. In addition to a stellar academic reputation, the school had also been one of the few in Boston to achieve some level of racial balance.
Attempting to appease civil rights complaints, Boston began allowing "open enrollment" transfers into Lewenberg in 1965, offering Black families a chance to attend the elite school. But as the racial balance tipped, alarmed parents saw standards declining, almost immediately.
Part II - Black-Jewish conflict in Boston as neighborhoods transitioned in the late 1960s. In April of 1968 Black radicals threatened to burn down the once-stately Mishkan Tefila temple complex unless it was turned over to the “Black community” free of charge.🧵
By the 1950s, most wealthy Jews had abandoned Boston for the suburbs, and the temple had been purchased by a Lubavitcher sect, who lacked funds to maintain it. They soon found themselves under siege in a neighborhood that was now overwhelmingly Black and increasingly hostile.
Some Jewish leaders hatched a plan to transfer the deteriorating temple complex to a Black community group led by Elma Lewis - hoping this might improve the increasingly strained relations between Boston’s Blacks and Jews.
