the plight of the Palestinians

I got a tweet today praising a U.S. back group in the Near East. Please know I do not hate Jewish people. If you are a Jewish holocaust denier do not read into this post that we are brethren. My childhood was filled with tales of the horrors of contraction camps. My grandmother died believing my other grandmother is an Italian Jewish concentration camp survivor. I believe my mother’s account that I am the result of a Liberian, Chickasaw, Choctaw, and French ancestral orgy. My point is this post is not an “I hate Jews” post. What I do dislike are those in America who pretend not to understand the plight of the people of Palestine.

I write today to speak to those who do not understand the Palestinian people and why they would resort to suicide missions. Suppose that while sitting at my home watching the local news and Fox News I decide that I am no longer safe in America. (The recent hate legislation aka immigration reform instills in me some type of fear for my safety.) I decide that I need to retake my ancestral land to form my very own country. I decide to reclaim all of the land given to the U.S. by my supposed ancestor Chief Greenwood Leflore for my Choctaw folks. The formation of my new country would displace people to the very boarders of Alabama, Florida, Louisiana, Tennessee, and Arkansas. Now suppose I have the backing of all of Central and South America. I also have an agreement with Europe, Japan, and China to look the other way as I defend my new country. Now further suppose my new allies have forced the rest of the United States to not aid those whom I have kicked off land their families have owned for over 100 years. Adding additional insult to injury this new group of homeless people has about as much ease moving to other states as did those from New Orleans after Katrina. Now suppose, I find documentation that shows my tribe actually owned land that extends deeper into Louisiana, Texas, and Arkansas. I decide based on the new documentation to annex that land into my new country. The people whom I have displaced are now forced to move again to make room for the descendant of my tribe sent to Oklahoma so long ago.

I have to wonder at which stage of my hypothetical scenario would the suicide bombings start. This posting is not to set the stage for an uprising here in the United States, La Raza. This posting is to point out the hypocrisy of those who claim to not understand the rational of those in the Near East who oppose continued Jewish settlement development. The very people claiming to not understand how someone can be a suicide bomber would be the first to bomb my new country. I do not propose to have the answer for the issue in the Near East but I do know continuing to build settlements, blocking aid to the Palestinians, and the legislation of laws that give rights to Jewish people only is not helping the road to peace. If Israel is the only democracy in the Near East, then why are there so many problems? The only Jewish and Muslim incident I have seen in the United States came at the K-Mart in Somerset, NJ when the two women were fighting over a bargain item. Being the good lover of Jesus that I am, I brought the two women together by taking the item for myself.

White Boys Whine

Quick  and dirty   Star Trek  Discovery  is everything  I  thought  it would  be.  It is my hope the White  boys  chill the fuck out .  There will be a White male captain .   The Black  woman  will be of a lowered  status.  White  boys  are you appeased ? My personal  view fuck White  boys who had their dicks in a vise  over women  of color  at the helm of a fictional  space vessel.  I shall watch  Star Trek  Discovery .  I shall pay the fee to CBS Access  with joy. If you wanted to watch OITNB you paid  Netflix . Overall  I look  forward  to the day a fictional  show  that features  women  of color  in prominent  positions  doesn't  freak out White males.  They were  so freaked  out  they compared  The Orville  to Star Trek  Discover...

New century no time for old games

As I prepared to write my comments on the Marcus Smart/Jeff Orr incident, I noticed a grown-ass man push a chair in the path of two running children at McDs.  I moved the chair and informed the man I was helping him by preventing the children from tripping.  I informed him that if the children tripped he and I would have an altercation.  He had not one word to say to me.  Punk assed grown assed men don't fuck with grown-ups only those they consider weak.  These people are the ones who will take pics of their gun collections to post on FB or Twitter.  These are the ones who will heckle college kids with racial slurs, "go back to Africa", or "Where is your green card."  As a mother, I can only hope my example of not being a punk has become embedded in my kids.  Real strength comes from knowing who you are and not seeking to belittle others.  My thoughts on Marcus Smart and Jeff Orr are simple. Marcus don't let it get to you.  It is sad...

The words we use

Someone in the media is in hot water for calling the president a dick. In all fairness I have said worse about Dick Cheney and George Bush. Well Cheney. I do not think anyone should be in trouble for call president a dick. However I have yet to see President Obama do anything that warrants my calling him anything other than Mr. President. He has not started any unwarranted wars. He has not fought to keep the American people in financial bondage. He has worked to change the tax code to keep the American economy viable. Why would anyone call Obama a dick is beyond me. IMHO we have had people in power who were true dicks. They managed to screw the people of America and the world so badly it will take a decade to feel normal. - Posted using BlogPress from my iPhone
