Enlightened Free Thinking Nubian Kings And Queens

( “All the crises and reforms (real reforms, too) so occupied the people that they did not see the slow motion underneath, of the whole process of government growing remoter and remoter.” — Historian Milton Mayer,  They Thought They Were Free: The Germans, 1933-45 Brace yourself. There is something being concocted in the dens of power, far beyond the public eye, and it doesn’t bode well for the future of this country. Anytime you have an entire nation so mesmerized by the antics of the political ruling class that they are oblivious to all else, you’d better beware. Anytime you have a government that operates in the shadows, speaks in a language of force, and rules by fiat, you’d better beware. And anytime you have a government so far removed from its people as to ensure that they are never seen, heard or heeded by those elected to represent them, you’d better beware. The world has been  down this road before . We are at our most vulnerable right now. The gr...

Body politic  is a  metaphor  in which a nation is considered to be a  corporate entity ,  being likened to a  human body . The word "politic" in this phrase is a  post positive adjective ; so it is "a body of a  politic  nature" rather than "a politic of a bodily nature". A body politic comprises all the people in a particular country considered as a single group. The  analogy  is typically continued by reference to the type of government as the  head of state ,  but may be extended to other anatomical parts, as in political readings of the  Aesop's fable , " The Belly and the Members ". The metaphor appears in the French language as the  corps-état .  The metaphor developed in  Renaissance  times, as the medical knowledge based upon the classical work of  Galen  was being challenged by new thinkers such as  William Harvey . Analogies were made between the supposed causes of dis...

The U.S. celebrates Black History Month in February to honor African-Americans' achievements and  contributions to society. People and organizations across the country hold events to recognize  pioneers such as Rosa Parks, Thurgood Marshall and Jackie Robinson. In its earliest form, the  tradition is almost 90 years old, but some people don't know its origins. Historian Carter G. Woodson established Negro History Week, which began Feb. 12, 1926. He scheduled  it at that time to match up with the birthdays of Frederick Douglass and President Abraham Lincoln,  according to the U.S. Census Bureau. In 1976, Negro History Week became Black History Month. President Gerald Ford urged the public to  "seize the opportunity to honor the too-often neglected accomplishments of black Americans in every  area of endeavor throughout our history," according to the International Association of Official  Human Rights Agencies. Nowadays, every Black History Mont...

       "The release of two African-American men from prison in North Carolina after 30 years of incarceration for a murder they didn’t commit is yet another example of the American justice system’s racist targeting of African-Americans as the supposed primary criminal class in the country.        Between this outrageous case, the recent police broad daylight execution of Mike Brown, and the choke hold killing of Eric Garner, we must ask: isn’t it time we launch a movement to defeat the raci st law enforcement and criminal justice system’s systematic war on Black-America?        Why do we still pretend as if these are random isolated unconnected occurrences? This week’s news of the release of Henry Lee McCollum and Leon Brown after 30 years in jail for the 1983 rape and murder of an 11 year-old girl, represent another case of the gross miscarriage of justice."

I wanna give a shout out to black men in America. The struggle of just being who you are. Living in this country that's not set up for you to succeed. Having to walk down these streets not knowing how your day will end up. Not knowing if you will be alive or hoping that you don't get locked up when you get pulled over. Being brainwashed to think that the life that your living is ok. Sagging your pants, calling each other nigga, disrespecting females by calling them bitches etc. Some of you don't know or want to know your history. You should, maybe you will change. My heart really goes out to you. When you look at people you have to take a psychological approach so you can understand why people are the way they are. Just because I understand it doesn't mean it is acceptable.  Change the way that you think and then you can make changes in the world.  Females we need to support our men. We need to respect ourselves. We need to encourage them to do the right thing. When ...
