Tired Civil Rights Organization Proposes Walking Around in Circles to Deal with Racism: NAACP begins 'Journey for Justice' from Ferguson
/The Revolution will Not be Sponsored by Foot Locker or Fear. Singing songs, holding hands, making great speeches, talking on TV and taking long, long walks and many other behaviors, have absolutely nothing to do with addressing the challenges and conditions of the open warfare continuously being waged against the Black & Brown collective. "Black people live under the power of white dominance & control, implying the absence of any true power to determine ultimately what happens to their individual and collective lives. This is the major problem facing Black and Brown people.' [MORE] and [MORE]. That is what Ferguson is about; powerlessness. Here, rather than dealing with white supremacy/racism the NAACP is running from it.
From [HERE] A group of people set off Saturday on a weeklong march from Ferguson to the state capital in Jefferson City in what organizers with the NAACP are calling the Journey for Justice. [to produce "Justice" you must replace the system of white supremacy.]
The roughly 250 marchers left Saturday afternoon from the Canfield Green Apartments, the spot of a memorial to 18-year-old Michael Brown, the unarmed black man who was shot and killed by a white Ferguson police officer, Darren Wilson
"This is a non-violent march. This is a peaceful march and we're seeking systemic, fundamental reform of policing in this country," said NAACP President and CEO Cornell William Brooks. He said that process begins with legislation against racial profiling on a state and national level. [legislation that would be primarily created & funded by white legislators, administered by white government workers, enforced by white prosecutors and remedied by white judges and jurors - the same racist suspects that uphold this racist system of vast unequal power. This solution is based on wrong view and is cooperation with and submission to white supremacy/racism.]
Marchers said the demonstration isn't about black or white issues, but rather equality for everyone. [MORE]
Grassroots folks have done their best to convince (see video above) or notify the Black consumer public about the Ferguson Blackout. [HERE] and [HERE] and [HERE]. But in no way do they have the resources the NAACP has. If the NAACP was real they would be leading a national boycott against Black Friday right now. Urging Blacks not to protest violently but through the power of economic refusal. Heavily financed and influenced by elite liberal whites, the NAACP has no real power to confront white supremacy/racism. Its power comes from white people. These folks are pawns of the Democractic Party and are "other directed" - as in directed away from Black power directed. Like the NAACP President said, to them "it is not about Black or White issues." The NAACP is an "everybody organization" and not a Black organization - and they are in no way enabled to develop a program for economic emancipation and empowerment of the Black community. And they are definitely not committed to challenging or neutralizing white power. If the NAACP had any such goals their funding would vanish.
