Nigger, Please!!

Get a Haircut...and sit your doofus-looking, "seventies" ass down somewhere. West is so typical of niggers I ran into on the west coast back during the seventies, like Ron Karenga for instance. Niggers who emigrated from the south with their parents, possibly working at some military base and overnight became the intellectualized spokespeople for black America...like the Black Panthers.

As a representative of Mr Elijah Muhammad in my early days on the west coast, I instantly came to the conclusion that these niggers weren't about sh*t, all mouth..."kill the pigs" (would run like rabbits), "respect for our Nubian sisters" (impregnating black women out of wedlock like rabbits), power to the people (dope smoking like rabbits if rabbits could smoke)...so on, and so forth.

The niggers would not go so far as getting behind a true Black man, such as Elijah, that would be too real with action to back the rhetoric...so they just run around the black community flapping their gums, and coming up with crazy ass ideas like Kwaanza, while sporting dashikis, and that retro Afro that West insists on under maintaining. In the clutch these niggers are no where to be found...and you can group "Needacut" West with the other con men like Rev. Nutscutter and Al B. Conked.    

Athletes Who Make A Difference

Kareem Abdul Jabbar, one of the Lakers' Legends, who would go on to make films about history changing events. One such film is the story of "Pastor Vernon Johns" of Montgomery, AL who was the predecessor of Dr. MLK, Jr. in the fight for civil justice.  It appears that Pastor Johns was a bit too outspoken during those early civil rights struggles in the city, and subsequently replaced. The film stars James Earl Jones and worth noting in the evolution of civil rights in the South.

I was familiar with Kareem Abdul Jabbar, who was then Lew Alcindor starring at UCLA. He was widely known because of the team's indomitable winning streak on the court. As a representative of Mr. Muhammad's, I could see he, like a lot of young black men on the west coast, was struggling with identity in this new found black awareness. It ranged from what was going on with the black protests in the US Olympics, to the demonstrations by the "Black Panthers" in the Bay area, to cries of "black power" by Stokely Carmichael and SNCC, to the non-violent marches of Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr., and of course the outspoken Muhammad Ali and the war in Vietnam.

It was during these internal decisions for many if not most young black men out west as to what course to take. I got to witness Lew Alcindor conversing with one of Mr. Muhammad's representatives out of Chicago, about how he could contribute his rising popularity in this civil struggle for justice in America. It appeared that Mr. Muhammad's philosophy was little too direct, such as the white man being the "devil" causing the chaos, when I could see that Lew had a tremendous amount of respect and loyalty for his white coach at UCLA, who was a direct contradiction to the assumption that all white people are "devils"?

Nevertheless, Lew Alcindor did convert to Islam and its orthodoxy and thus, Kareem Abdul Jabbar, not just a "baller" but a man who would help to better reveal and understand black American history. 

The Need for Common Sense 

Benjamin Netanyahu, the leader of Democratic Israel, sat down and had a frank, honest, and open conversation with President Obama about Israel's critical need to survive in a hostile environment.

In the book "How One Becomes Wealthy Despite Society's Ignorance and Stupidity" (Available at Amazon .com) it's cited how Black Muslims and Southern Whites were willing to cooperate despite all the hell that was breaking out around them.

There was no hypocrisy about "love for one's fellowman" and all that comes with such hypocrisy as espoused by religions...but just "common sense cooperation" for the safety and security of all involved.

I will go so far as to say, if all this "religious crap" is taken off of the table, Jews and Arabs might find a path toward better cooperation in that part of the world.
