The Black Experience

A file of jump off points I been collecting for a while now, yet to organize and expand but help yourself.

• multiple links on Black RR history
• Black Venus, Hottentot Venus. Side-show big butt. Check figurines found in malta catacombs
• Black Labor orgs
• 1881, a washerwoman’s strike in Atlanta involved 3000 mostly black cleaning women, where a labor organization was formed to petition for better wages and equal representation. This organization was later named the Washing Society.
• 1895 Cotton States and International Expo- Booker T Washington ‘separate as fingers but same as the hand’ became separae but equal. First ever negro building Nashville World Fair
• James Wormley, black hotel owner in DC, present at lincolns death bed. had first black public school built, tranferred to Special Needs school, shut down in 94 due to lead paint and asbestos

• Brown vs RR. about a woman thrown off a train for not using propper restroom, taken to supreme court
• 1906 Atlanta Race Riots, interview by future head of naacp (named ‘White’) media induced racism leads to race riots, all prominent New England family names. Atlanta is Southern Seat of Reset Authority. Clark University is site of negro stronghold, Gammons school
• history of the industrial negro, by Jackson. Jackson was said-slave of General Stonewall that directed the world fair at jamestown Negro Pavillion. introduced black banking, financed by boston cryptojew bankers. Jackson wrote the official narrative regarding Blacks in America, or at least his name was on the cover. Started Black ‘secret societies’ in Richmond. African slaves were in America before White Europeans repopulated. His book is the beginning of trans-atlantic slave trade lie and blames Whites. His book is more or less a description of Black participation in wars that never happened.

Economic co-operation among Negro Americans. Report of a social study made by Atlanta University under the patronage of the Carnegie Institution of Washington, D.C. together with the proceedings of the 12th Conference for the Study of the Negro Problems, held at Atlanta University, on Tuesday, May the 28th, 1907 edited by WEB Dubois. published in 1907, same time and content as Jacksons, shows a marked push to give Black businesses, but only to make them tax slaves

The African Pigmy, “Ota Benga.”
Age, 23 years. Height, 4 feet 11 inches.
Weight, 103 pounds. Brought from the
Kasai River, Congo Free State, South Cen-
tral Africa, by Dr. Samuel P. Verner. Ex-
hibited each afternoon during September

Media today only says about the racism toward Ota but I think he was happy. He lived there, he wasn’t captive, well I guess he couldn’t just walk out but he was a celebrity. His smiles are genuine. He was put on display but enjoyed the attn, a poster child isn’t whipped. Modern day media is exploiting him just as bad as the ones that use him for other agendas. Heres a Post article that is lies, lies, lies but it offers a few leads.

Congo Free Republic– the Congo was private property of the King of Belgium. The ownership only served so the international community would have a scapegoat. It was the International Military Industrial Complex that farmed rubber for the Machine.

The African interior is the only landlocked place on Earth I have come across. The old world was canal based. Whats that say if you live landlocked on a water based world. This is the only place cut off from the outside. I think it always served as a pool for slaves, the whips and chains kind, not the tax and debt kind. The institution of slavery was fully developed at all times in the past. Not like it was a new phenomenon and grew. What Im getting at is the Africans were in North America before the European Orphans came. African slaves were already here, Europeans are blamed for bringing them but the real slavers just changed their name to ‘missionaries’ and the ‘Church’.

Congo region was developed by Belgium on the surface, but they only served as a cover for international military industrial complex.

The reports of chopping off hands with machetes to save ammunition is only partly propaganda. It happened enough in reality. Much of the African story is shared with Asia. The Dalai Lama, man of peace and passive resistance.for instance. Pre-Communist Tibet was whips and chains slavery too, “the Dark Ages” of Tibet its nicknamed They use hand chopping too as a punishment. Its ‘Hidden Hand’ symbolism.

In late 1946 Griaule spent a consecutive thirty-three days in conversations with the Dogon wiseman Ogotemmêli, the source of much of Griaule and Dieterlen’s future publications.  In 1991 anthropologist Walter van Beek concluded after his research among the Dogon that, “Though they do speak about sigu tolo [which is what Griaule claimed the Dogon called Sirius] they disagree completely with each other as to which star is meant… All agree, however, that they learned about the star from Griaule.”

In a 1978 critique, skeptic Ian Ridpath concluded: “There are any number of channels by which the Dogon could have received Western knowledge long before they were visited by Griaule and Dieterlen.” In his book Sirius Matters, Noah Brosch postulates that the Dogon may have had contact with astronomers based in Dogon territory during a five-week expedition, led by Henri-Alexandre Deslandres, to study the solar eclipse of 16 April 1893.
