I received an email from a White Male
reader today and thought it would interesting
to see what people here think.

He was EXTREMELY angry at me for writing
in my autobiography that America is a
White Supremacist and racist nation.

He has just returned from living in
Nigeria and wanted me to know the
following:



__________


I'm a white guy and having travelled in over 100 countries and 25 countries in Africa, I think it's Nigeria! (*most racist country on earth)

Sure in French Africa, the police will want a bribe if you're english speaking and for sure if you're white. And boy will they be wicked!! But the local people there are nice and will want to be friends with you. In South Africa, they've got huge tensions for sure. But at least most people are trying to be a rainbow nation. And in provincial Western Europe and Eastern Europe, it's bad for black people. There'll be some idiots there who want trouble but most people would look away and in England most would stop it. Australia's bad definitely but a lot of people no longer believe in white Australia and even if they'd laugh, they wouldn't let anyone get hurt.

But in Nigeria, it was unbelievable!!! I've been attacked several times on my travels but only in Nigeria did I experience being attacked whilst a street full of onlookers who all laughed. In Nigeria, it's funny for a white to be attacked. If he's bleeding, it's better. Why was I in their country anyway. After all, there's only 2 million Nigerians in the 'country' where I was born. Nigerians are far too backward to get along with other tribal Nigerians so a white is just an animal to them. Every Nigerian I met wanted something out of me. If I ask for my change in a bar, they shake their heads, close their eyes and sometimes scream in anger. What a stupid white! When they see me with my Nigerian girlfriend, they shout out loud and tell her in to eat all my money. Yeah! Ha ha! If I'm friends with a Nigerian and at the end I haven't given them anything, they get angry and make threats. Sometimes, they'll see you somewhere and just look at you and shake their heads in disgust. You're white, what are you doing in my country? Sometimes, they kidnap you if you're a foreigner. When I visited my girlfriend's family home, someone outside said: what the mess are you doing in my country? Most Nigerians utterly hate whites. And they think there's good reason to! They're white and were born on white land. Nigeria's the most racist place in the world in my opinion. It's pure happy, smiling racism. How can Nigerians talk about racism?

In Nigeria, everywhere he went,
he was randomly called

"oyibo"





(lawd forgive me)





Means "whitey."

But in all fairness
they call Mulatto Nigerians and
African-American tourists (or
African women who date a white
man--ie. his Nigerian girlfriend)
that name as well.

Well, from what he said, if all is true, I would say he experienced some nasty racism because of his color. Blacks have suffered the same humiliating and vile experiences because they were black. Not saying what happened to him was OK because it's not. If anyone is treated in a harsh, disrespectful or violent manner because of their ethnicity or race....well...I'd say they were experiencing racism. It's not rocket science ya know....

And there ya have it. It’s the same sad mentality that whites used when conveniently classifying people as niggers, spics, kikes and chinks. Racist ignorance and intolerance is not restricted nor relegated to any one particular race or ethnicity….*shrugs*……

Ntfs, I agree with you completely.

In all my work, I have been sure to
include the racism of Blacks against
Blacks and Blacks against "whites/others."

But when I wrote the reader back...what
I tried to impress upon him was the
actual meaning of terms like "White Supremacy."

For instance...

When human beings watch t.v. for a 24 hour
period and the only people washing their
hair in "SHAMPOO COMMERCIALS" are White
or "straight-haired" people, usually
female---this is a MODE in which we, as
a society, condition and train people to
see one type of group as "superior" based
on showing them as the NORM.

Black People with "our hair" are never
--and I mean never---shown washing their
hair in a shampoo commercial.

Yet people wonder why children cannot
let go of terms like "Good hair."

There are literally millions of social
examples of White Supremacy, but another
that people rarely notice is the
"NUDE Panythose" label on stockings.

It IS racist/supremacist to insist
that only "pink skin" can be labeled "nude"
and not by color--which infers that White skin, when bear, is the NORM for all humans...

but "TAN OLAY", "COFFEE" and "MEXICAN STRAW"
are exotic colors that require being named
by color.

I wear "Golden Bronze" pantyhose and when
I put them on---my legs look nude.

NOT GOLDEN BRONZE.

What many Black Women Sociologists ie.
Patricia Hill Collins have taken offense
at--and I agree with them---is that
White women's skin color on the stockings
is not labeled "PALE VANILLA", "SUNTAN PINK,"
"SHOWER FRESH CREAM" or "PINK SHRIMP."

I told the reader that when I wrote in my
memoir that America is a "White Supremacist"
nation---I was not speaking of violent,
loud outbursts from people in the streets.

I was speaking of the CONDITIONING, the
constant subliminal messages that make it
nearly impossible for Black People in this
country to see themselves as "normal"; as
fully "human" in a dark skin and cottony
African hair.

What is really sad NTFS...

...is that few "African-Americans" also
notice the constant branding and labeling
and presentations of everything.

They have basically come from a history of
being INCUBATED by White Supremacist belief
systems for hundreds of years.

Therefore, they are used to seeing images
that degrade and injure their children
without protesting it.

In a "casting call" for TIDE DETERGENT
or JIFF PEANUT BUTTER....the White soccer
Mom must ALWAYS be played by a size-6
very attractive White woman, usually blond.

She is of Child-bearing age.

For those same commercials---a Black Mom
is ALWAYS shown as "over-weight", "plain",
"folksy" with a "honey-child loveable smirk."

Naomi Campbell (or dark young beautiful women)
are never cast the Black Mom doing laundry
and making kids's lunch.

NOW NOTICE...in real life...there are EQUAL
amounts of Fat, Plain, Folksy WHITE GIRLS
doing laundry and fixing lunch...but on t.v.
"fat" White women (which is the majority of
American women) are not allowed. They are
always shown on t.v. as Slim, Attractive and
"normal."

This is why you will hear people claiming that
"obesity" is a problem with Black Women--when
in reality---we have just as many Skinny
Brown Girls and White people have just as
many Fat/Chubby White girls.

But the CONDITIONING of the media images
send the message---

"Procreate w/White Women; they are normal
and attractive"

"Don't Procreate w/Black women; they are
Fat and undesirable."

90% of "brownskinned black women" on TV,
Ntfs, are either "older 45" (beyond child
bearing age), "Over-weight speaking Ghetto
Jive or Country Folk" or they're "Plain Jane/Judge/Teacher" types.

90% of White women on TV are portrayed in
"child-bearing age" and shown to be sexually
desirable, model-looking, thin, even-minded.

The majority of America's White W, however,
are a Size 16--22 and basically benefit
from the CONDITIONING that "white skin",
"straight-hair" and White Semi-thick soccer
Moms are normal.

This message by the media is undeniable
and it is also White Supremacist in that
doesn't portray all women "equally" in
their true images.

My reader wrote back admitting that he
had never thought this deeply on the
"messages" of the society and that he
did see how I---an African girl with
brown skin and nappy hair---could find
the constant messages racist and White
Supremacist growing up.

Though I love listening to Mariah Carey
and have all her CD's---I resented
Black Americans telling me that Mariah
was "black" and that she (a stringy-haired
woman with White Skin) could represent
me as a Black person.

As I told the reader--that kind of thinking
alone (considered "normal" by most Americans)
is White Supremacist/Racist and
not all Black people on earth have been
INCUBATED in slavery chattel and conditioned
not to notice when they're being insulted.

The young black generation are who the trendsetters are and the Ad agencies all incorporate hip hop aspects into their commercials.

No commercials nowadays have anything to do with the "norm". They are all hype, delivering blatant and subliminal messages about "what will make life better" and all races are brainwashed by the blitz touting the supremacy of a certain product. Witness the accross tthe board appeal of what the diet industry promises.

There are images that are directed exclusively to black people and when the products involves color, the spectrum runs the gamut.

Kola Boof is still spouting the same of 1990 rhetoric about white supremacy, when today it's all about celebrity and wealth and power and class, no matter what color it comes in.

Cynique,


There isn't a single Sociologist
in America...White or Black...
who would dispute what I wrote about
the "conditioning" and "normative"
labeling in American culture.

You can say whatever you want to,
and of course because you PARTLY
benefitted all your life from what
Sociologists call "normative conditioning"
it's no surprise that you claim this
is ALL IN "KOLA BOOF'S" HEAD.

KOLA:

Uh, yeah.

Tell that to MICHELLE OBAMA.

(although...MAYBE because of
Michelle...we will soon see a
BLACK WOMAN in a shampoo
commercial washing her hair.
)

Then tell it to her HUSBAND Barack
...over whose "race" and "coloring"
everyone argues daily.

The Republicans even had to pick a
BLACK RNC because of the SOCIOLOGICAL
facts I presented.

IMAGE, LABELING, CONDITIONING

---they now had to USE A BLACK FACE so
that they could continue to be Racist
and Make Racist Republican comments
on FOX NEWS.

Nothing has changed Cynique, and your
baffling and ridiculous dismissals have
more to do with wanting to "disagree with
Kola" than with an honest appraisal of
the FACTS I presented

...about Shampoo Commercials, Panythose
Labeling and Soccer Mom portrayals.

COLOR still dictates this country's
DAILY BEHAVIOR.

This IS a White Supremacist nation.

I can't believe you're over 70
spouting such bullshit denials.

OH BUT WAIT---you're a Registered Republican
anyway, Cynique.

And was a HIGH-LINE REDBONE Princess in
YER day. :-)

Well....maybe....that expains it.

Oh puleeze. I've never voted Republican in my life. So as usual you resort to lies to try and shore up your weak points. Still trying to cast a high yella working class gal as some red bone princess in attempt to fit me into a little box that saves you the trouble of coming up with a credible defense of your myopic nonsense. If you didn't secretly wish you were a red bone, you wouldn't be so preoccupied with this designation. Get real, mud face. You're pathetic.

Everything I'm saying is what sociologist are currently observing. Class is what is emerging as the new criteria, and as far as women go, skininess rules, not color.

How much did color handicap our new first lady? Did it keep her out of the white house where white fashionistas are currently vying for her favor ala Beyonce? Did it keep her out of Yale and Harvard and prestiegous law firms? And the elitism that apparently spawned a need to have her ass kissed sure didn't send her to the ghetto to help out the less fortunate.

You don't have a leg to stand on with your outdated self-serving spiel.

Of course, racism will always be with us, but money talks and power walks.

Color doesn't handicap any of us Cynique.

And I really hate it when you don't pay
attention and then you make idiot comments
because your mind is so closed.

I never said that we were being Handicapped.

I said that we live in a WHITE-IS-NORMAL
EUROCENTRIC society that labels everything
non-white as EXOTIC--therefore a
threat.

WHAT COLOR DOES....is "labels us" (by
color stereotypes) and it CONDITIONS us to
accept those labels.

What I pointed out about the PANTYHOSE
was the perfect example of those LABELS
feeding the White Supremacist Mind-set
of this country.

AND BTW....all Americans of all colors
are White Supremacist. The fact that
90% of American Black Women wear their
hair "straightened" their entire lives
(some black children have never even
seen their mother's real hair) is proof
of that.

Michelle Obama, regardless of being
FIRST LADY---has been a major of
receptor of "Color Labeling."

Such as...

[She has an attitude against Whites/
Women like Michelle are un-feminine,
her "rump" is too sexually provocative,
she's dark = plain/
dark = too strong, too assertive]

CHRIS ROCK stated that---"A black woman
can't be first lady! She's too strong.
She can be President
."

Americans "Masculinize" Black women's
images as yet another way of portraying
them as Unattractive to the "cause" of
Whiteness.

I can't believe after all the BRILLIANCE
Deesha Phillylaw has credited you for OH
GREAT WISE ONE
....that you're actually
sitting up here pretending that COLOR
plays no part in anything---skininess does,
but yet "racism" will be with us always.


CYNIQUE:


If you didn't secretly wish you
were a red bone, you wouldn't be
so preoccupied with this designation.
Get real, mud face. You're pathetic.



CYNIQUE on the PHONE


Cynique--your DEMENTIA is really taking
up FILE space my sista.

THIS IS WHAT I WISH I LOOKED LIKE:




*This woman is an AFRICAN model
living in Miami.



And Black women LOVE Mud.

If you were knowlegable about healing
and health issues--you would love Mud,
too.

It's richer and healthier than RED Clay
and has a hundred more uses.

Now go make some pottery out of your
TIRED peel'n Witchy-Poo ass.



CYNIQUE BRADLEY IN HER

(Young Negroes when you wonder why we are in the shape we are, you need look no further to this crap to answer your question.

Cynique is in denial. This despite living in one of the most racist cities in the U.S.

This is despite the last election when LIBERAL DEMOCRATS made some of the most racist statements against Obama made.

This despite the present counterattack against Obama, delivered not because of policies but because he is a black man in the white house and not sweeping up.

Hope? There is no hope.

If you can't handle the truth at least be good enough to say nothing.

Barak Obama is the President of the U.S. And there are neighborhoods in which he cannot live and organizations he cannot belong to (before you go off, Granny, I'm talking about them big fancy white country clubs where lots of business is discussed and decided).

And there it is.

But in Nigeria, it was unbelievable!!! I've been attacked several times on my travels but only in Nigeria did I experience being attacked whilst a street full of onlookers who all laughed

(I have had the wonderful experience of that happening in my very own country, America.

And there are parts of it where it could happen right this minute.

But let us examine the egocentrism and racism of this clown.

He takes his ass to another country. He assumes--probably because he is white--that he can go wherever he wants and the people will lick his ass.

He runs into some people looking to kick ass and his white skin don't get him no pass.

Let us examine further. Is this guy an American?

That's another thing. Americans are hated in almost every country in the world today. He ought to wake up and smell the coffee.

Another thing. He obviously didn't like whatever happened to him. My advice to him--welcome to the club. Stay around your own kind.

I bet this would happen to him in France or Russia too.

My, my, what have I awakened to??? Nothing. Nothing - but a lot of crap being grunted out by 2 azz holes.

Well, Chris and Kola it shouldn't come as a surprise to you that what you 2 flannel mouth chameleons have to say about anything doesn't mean Jack to me. And as usual you have reformatted what I've contended to try and legitimize your patented arguments.

I'll make it simple for you. If things haven't changed, then how did Barak Obama get elected?? I didn't say that racism was gone or that white supremacy didn't exist. But how obvious can it be to anybody that there's a difference between something existing and something monopolizing the situation. A dislike of the unlike will always characterize a multi ethnic society. But power in all of its forms and degrees eventually trumps prejudice. And money and power go hand in hand. This is the wave of the future.

With the shape this country is in, how fragmented has white supremacy become? Do you think that in the crises that is sure to come that people with money will be discriminated against?

You 2 do not seem to be able to comprehend a simple argument. You're still mired in the same ol same mind-set that obscures reality with rhetoric

As for all of this BS about what TV commercials convey, I will not retract what I said which was that ad agencies are selling a product that promises to make people's lives better. And if you think the message is slanted to appeal to a fat, snaggled-toothed, red neck hill billy then then your mind is petrified unless the product is for dental implants and a diet regimen. Why is that so hard for you to understand?

White Jessica Simpson have been the talk of the pop world, her picture being ciruculated all over the internet, making her the object of ridicule and scorn because she gained 15 pounds and no longer looks trim. She being victimized by this country's obsession with WEIGHT.

This is a superficial hypocritical culture and racism comes with the territory. If you lame brains don't think that it can be circumvented then it's no wonder you are both struggling along in the twilight of your middle-age, trying to kick the "loser" label. I may be old but I know second-rate wanna-bes when I see em.

As for your graphics, kola, I don't need to post illutrations to display caricatures of you. You've supplied that ugly picture of yourself for all to gag over and your natural appearance with that greasy bulbous face and its idiotic buck-toothed grin and BB eyes says it all. And no matter what color tone you aspire to, anything would be an improvement over your splotchy skin.

If 2 are examples of the progressive thinkers, Kola and Chrishayden, then you are the poster children for turning back the hands of time.

Me, I'm living in 2009 as the picture I had taken as a joke for my husband's birthday before he died 2 years ago shows.

Of course that picture is really me, "serenasailor". Ask people who remember the picture of me taken from the back of my book that kola boof always took great delight in posting.

I have not deluded myself into thinking that I look like a 20-something year old hottie, but it's not that hard to put yourself together in a way create an impression.

I purposely posted this picture because at my age I claim the privilege of not giving a shyt if I scandalize others. I dedicate it to all of those who are guilty of practicing the ageism that sterotypes senior citizens.

Cynique,

Girl, you look great in that photo!!! :-)

I'm proud of you.

You should have posted that shit
earlier--

You KNOW Kola ain't mad at you!!!






I'm busy and not able to read the posts
right now.

But as you can see in this photo---




(Lecturing at Milken Jewish School
w/Francis Bok)


the health issues I overcame in Jan./08
and the recurring treatments from it have
made it IMPOSSIBLE for me to be walking
around with delusions of being 20.

LOL!

The Medications I had to endure fighting
(and eventually BEATING) the Big "C" had
swollen my face (which you may have also
noticed in the photos that TROY pissed me
off by posting----you might also remember
back to the Schomburg Event when I only
allowed photos of my body but not my face
to be posted).


(Backstage, Young and the Restless)

These pics are from SEPT. and a lot of the
swelling has gone down after they operated
on my Thyroid to keep fluid from crushing my
throat---

---from it I got "Osteo-Arthritis" in
my left hand, but by losing 10 pounds, I
can't actually FEEL arthritis--so it's like
I don't have it.

BTW...I I didn't have "glioblastoma multiforme"--which kills 90% of the
time.

I had two inner cranial sarcoma and they
were caught VERY EARLY.

(Like you--I'm also SALT ADDICT.)

:-)

YOU ARE NOT...SO OLD.

And though we spar constantly, I really
do admire your PERPETUAL YOUTHFULNESS and
I don't actually see you as some old lady.

I give you props, sister.

As well...

The GREAT THING about posting these photos
from when I was so ill, Cynique----

is that now that I'm recovering, losing
weight and finally OFF the medications
---my beauty is still there and I have
A LOT to work with in making my big
comeback.

In fact, it seems my life has been one
giant series of comebacks.

Expect me to look better than ever by the
time I re-emerge "PUBLICLY" for the launch
of my new projects at the end of 2009.









ChrisHayden,


THANK YOU!!!!

And you're totally right, King.

Awwwwww shucks... now we are talking... big time! Let me see if my printer is working. The women of Thumper's Corners have seen the light. Yvettep and Kitty are getting in line. They are about to breakout in their own skin-tight leather pants and see-through top, complete with six inch heels and a jar of honey. Yawl might as well bring Jackie along. She's dying to get into the action.

I don't know about this place.

I thought this was a discussion board, not a dating service *lol*.

But come on. I am a nasty old fart that loves adventure. I got a few dollars to put in yawls treasures.

Cynique,

I honestly meant what I said about
your photo.

You look great, you give me HOPE
and I'm proud OF you and proud
to know you.

Sometimes we have to take a break
from the cat-fights and say something
sweet...

...because all the negative energy
isn't really the GOD in us.

A huge misconception about me is
that I enjoy being acidic and bitchy
and that's completely not true.

Fighting has always disturbed my spirit,
but I've done it all my life because
there was always someone trying to destroy
me, disrespect me or take me down.

I am a very gentle person and I am also
tired with a capital "T". I have had
a VERY hard life.


As for the TOPIC---I'm not reversing
anything I've said. I don't agree
with you on this topic AT ALL.

But I don't see you as some defeated
and diminished old lady, and I wanted
to stop and be serious about that for
a moment, because AGEISM is really
real and I don't honestly think
that way about you or any elder
survivor.

I know how hip, young and SPRY you
are, Miss Thing :-) and in that regard,
I think you (and all of us here) are
GREAT.




The original guy who wrote me the
email has expressed his belief that I
"Hate White Men."

This is another huge problem that I
find about America---

anytime a black person stands up for
themselves, chooses SELF or speaks of
their experiences and tells THEIR truth
---it is immediately seen as "Hating White People".

Everyone acts as though we have some
Obligation to ignore reality in the
name of "getting along" or that me
speaking on my pain as an African woman
in a nation that hates me is a sign
of combativeness.


But I do not HATE White men or White
people or anyone.

If I had saw that White Man being
beaten by Nigerians--I would have
stopped it.

Sure, I would tease him....

But I would also have cleaned him up,
fed him and led him to a safer place.

I am not a racist or a separatist.

My problem is that I have not been
CONDITIONED to the degree that Black
Americans have
--therefore, I appear to be
very frightening and combative even
to most American Blacks.

Still, my own people (American Blacks)
should be able to recognize me and
understand what I am saying.

My arguments are very intelligent and my perceptions about race, keeping blacks
"in their place" and self-hatred in this
country are 100% CORRECT--if hard to take,
because of course--THE TRUTH indicts us
black folks as well as anyone else.

Having deep African roots...but being
raised by some really tough Black Americans
has given me a type of BRAVERY and
COURAGE that most people don't have.

And I realize that's why people fear
what I have to say so much and try to
silence it.

I would like to see HUMANITY united as
one great big family.

But not if I am expected to be on the
BOTTOM cheering the Light/White top.

I am an African, and that means that I am
"too good" to be on the bottom.

I am the mother...of everything living
on this earth.

Animals, locusts, GOD, Humans and all
--came from My Black Pussy, because
there was no place else to come from.

When you go to your Christian Church
and you say your prayers---ask GOD
what was the first religion on this
earth--and you will learn that is was
my Black Pussy; Africa.

And this is the way that Black Americans
need to learn to think as well.

It is your African birthright to regain
that way of thinking.

Because you are also "too good" not
to be loved and celebrated and accepted
AS YOURSELF---AS BLACK (black as all
black put together).

And it is time that our White brethren,
the Liberal ones claiming "Brotherhood"
and "Sisterhood" so damn much, come to
understand this.

That we are "too good" to remain in
our places.

I would like to see nappy Black women in
the Shampoo commericals, Cynique
---because we wash our hair, too,
and more than that--We have GOD's
Hair.

Not "good hair"--but GOD'S HAIR.

And when that happens...then I will
agree with you that it's now ONLY about
Money, Celebrity and Class.

Believe it or not, Kola Boof, I'm tired of playing one-ups-man-ship games, myself. This board claims too much of my energy and brings out the worst in me. When it reaches the point where I resort to posting ridiculous pictures of myself, then it's time to chill.

Things have come full circle, so you and I will just have to co-exist in our little parallel universes. I've reached the "whatever-will-be-will-be" plateau and I leave you the chore of figuring it all out. Godspeed, my dear.
