We know hearts are breaking all over the world at this news, but we are happy to report Actor Idris Elba and longtime model girlfriend Sabrina Dhowre have officially tied the knot. The couple wed in an elegant ceremony held in Marrakesh, Morocco, showing the world that black love is still alive and well!


The beautiful ebony couple has planned to spread out their wedding celebration over three days. A day before the ceremony, they hosted a “colors of the Souk”-themed dinner, held at the luxurious Amanjena hotel. The gorgeous couple exchanged vows at the Ksar Char Bagh hotel, and according to schedule guest will be attending an all-white party today (April 27th), held at the Mandarin Oriental hotel.


For the big day, the bride, wore a custom white dress by Vera Wang to the ceremony, and Elba arrived as a dapper groom in a suit designed by the London-based African label Ozwald Boateng.


As for the entertainment, it's unknown whether or not Elba jumped into the DJ booth, as he’s known to do, but more likely, he outsourced that duty. The guest list has also yet to be revealed, although it has been reported that the night before wedding, at a private dinner the entertainment included "camels and fire dancers and dancing."


WE WISH THE DUO WELL AND CHEER THAT THEIR BLACK LOVE LAST FOREVER!!!

The Black community rallied behind 'Justice for Stephon Clark', but what is your opinion about Stephon Clark and His Asian Girlfriend's apparent Hatred for Black Women?

Stephon Clark, the unarmed black man who was gunned down by police while allegedly breaking into cars in Sacramento, was apparently a self-hating man whose Asian girlfriend shared his hatred for black women publicly via their Twitter accounts.

Last year a tweeter user by the name @Eatmorefruitz found Clark's and his girlfriend's hateful & racist tweets and had this to say:

"Black Women here is what #StephonClark thought about you. Stop marching/protesting for this fool that did not care about you. He would NOT have done the same for you. #BlackWomenMatter".

"Here is a tweet #StephonClark's Asian babymama posted & laughed at regarding Black Babies and another tweet she wrote about Black Women," the user tweeted on Thursday. "She also loves using the N-word. Notice that #StephonClark cosigned the tweet about Black Babies. His twitter was @zoewoodz."

The user posted tweets allegedly written by Salena Manni, Clark's girlfriend, which reads: "This nigga said "I don't want no black baby. I'm already black. I don't need no black baby".

A user with the Twitter handle @zoewoodz replied: "on God," alongside a "100" emoji.

User @Eatmorefruitz also went to make the following statements via Twitter:

"So let's recap, #StephonClark had a racist babymama(whose racism he cosigned), had a string of anti black woman tweets and didn't even care enough to show support for #blacklivesmatter , but now that it happened to him we're supposed to care? Nah."



A burgeoning generation of cancerous rappers are spitting bleak, hedonistic rhymes about prescription pills, loveless sex and premature death, and their presence on the charts swells week after week. In an effort to expose the poisonous nature of these so-called ‘artist’ and their destructive relationship with the black community this article will focus on the inglorious bastard 21 Savage, who’s LP album ‘Issa’ reached No.2 on the charts with toxic tracks that advise “numb the pain with the money”, and “they killed one, we gon' kill five, nigga” opens up questions about the ethics of enjoying music that revels in violence against black people, and spreads like a virus  is what former President Barrack Obama calls, “toxic masculinity.”


Comparing rappers like 21 Savage with other rap chart-toppers such as rapper Kendrick Lamar and Talib Kweli, is reminiscent of the 1990s distinction between the “conscious”, socially aware rap of KRS-One and Public Enemy and its “gangsta” half-brotha, characterized by acts such NWA, with their grim yet vivid narratives of gunplay and crime, has fallen into a dangerous grey area of entertainment versus blatant disrespect for black life, and the obsession with crime as a way out the hood.


So why are wack MC’s such as 21 Savage diving into hopeless, degenerate rhymes? Nihilism suggests that 21 Savage finds pleasure, in meaningless violence, murder, and drug dealing as an illusory world of self-destruction. Any person that subjectively analysis 21 Savage’s music can see that he is a proponent, and avid promoter of anti-black ether, that exacerbates the western world’s obsession with black criminality. Nihilism and negativity is front and center in 21 Savage’s celebratory murderous lyrics.


Even before his Super Bowl weekend arrest in Atlanta, were Atlanta police say the rapper, whose real name is Shéyaa Bin Abraham-Joseph, was recklessly driving a car with a loaded gun in the glove compartment,  21 Savage had profited greatly from his image of stereotypically black criminality, rambunctiousness and rebelliousness. His music which has excited his sold out concerts with a majority white audience cheering him on, is laced with perverse lyrics of infidelity, and killing of "niggas", is the main event. His loyal fan base, a mixture of mostly teenagers, suburban white kids, and college students, are entertained and motivated by his rags to riches stories, and hood proverbs about selling drugs, stealing, and killing his way to the top,  but never to the point of them wanting to solve the issues plaguing the black community.

There’s rarely an in-between when it comes to the never ending debate of the Pit Bulls’ place in society. But how exactly did Pit Bulls go from being “America’s Dog”, the SAVAGE dog of the slave owner, and slave catcher at the turn of the 20th century to one of the most beloved K9's in Black American households in the past few decades?


The American Pit Bull is a purebred dog that finds its history rooted in the now extinct Old English Terriers, and the Old English Bulldogs, which were both bred together to produce a dog that combined gameness, strength, and athleticism. These dogs named Bulls and Terriers were bred in the British Isles, and arrived in the United States in the late nineteenth century, where they became the direct ancestors of the American Pit Bull. In the United Kingdom, Bull-and-terriers were used in blood sports such as bull baiting and bear baiting. Upon arrival in America, the American Pit Bull, highly intelligent, short haired dog, was the MOST OFTEN chosen to fill the role of companion dog for slave owners, and savage hunters of the ‘run-away’ slave catchers. 

 

Pit Bulls, a medium sized dog, also bred as Bull mastiffs, a larger version, were referred to by slave catchers as ‘Dog Men’,  were one of the most diabolical weapons used on enslaved Africans in America. Slave owners/Masters and catchers trained these beast to hunt bears and runaway slaves alike. Locate, alert, maul, and contain tactics were often used on our ancestors. Sadistic slave catchers would sometimes reward these savage killer dogs during a hunt, catchers would instruct the dog to attackt the abdomens of the runaway slaves, and eat his/her stomach flesh; this method of reward was particularly rewarding when attacking pregnant escaped slaves. 

 

During the 19th century the Southern states of America managed there Slave Empire with extreme brutality, the mere use of chattel slavery on the worlds African populations and indigenous people proved to be highly profitable, and equally polarizing. The enslaved people of the southern American states particularly were forced to negotiate with wild beast when trying to escape bondage. The wildlife that proliferated throughout much of the south, particularly in the swamps found throughout the region, meant that running away entailed more than simply avoiding catchers and vile masters.  Indeed, runaway enslaved people, often labeled ‘fugitives’ consistently noted the multiple dangers.  One in particular was Solomon Northup, a famous former slave, gave this account of his escape into a Louisianan swamp:


‘For thirty or forty miles it is without habitants, save wild beasts – the bear, the wild-cat, the tiger, and great slimy reptiles, that are crawling through it everywhere.  I staggered on, fearing every instant I should feel the dreadful sting of the moccasin, or be crushed within the jaws of some disturbed alligator.  The dread of them now almost equaled the fear of the pursuing hounds’ [Twelve Years a Slave, edited by Sue Eakin and Joseph Logsdon (1968), 103-104].’


Despite the many obstacles faced in his pursuit of freedom, the wild creatures still did not frighten him as much as the pursuing ‘hounds’. Interviews of many former slaves in the 1930s reiterate the fact that, despite the numerous threats from wild southern animals, it was the use of trained dogs, mainly the Pit Bull that most frightened them.


Former slaves claimed that masters, and professional slave catchers would use ‘savage dogs, trained to hunt and follow the track of the poor colored fugitive’ [William J. B Anderson, Life and Narrative of William J. Anderson, Twenty-four Years a Slave (1857), 48]. Further accounts from slave-owners suggest that the fears of the enslaved people, were not far off. According to Bennett H. Barrow diary, one slaveholder from Louisiana, frequently mentioned the importance of dogs in capturing runaways, as well as the terrible violence they could inflict: ‘hunting Ruffins Boy Henry, came across Williams runaway caught him dogs nearly et his legs off, near killing him’.  [Diary, Mss. 2978, Louisiana and Lower Mississippi Valley Collections, LSU Libraries, Baton Rouge, La, 440]. 


The Psychotic American slave owners/masters had such faith in using specially breed dogs to root out runaways, particularly the more dangerous groups or “maroons”, was recognized by other former slaves who stated that ‘masters would be afraid to go hunt them without dogs’ [George P. Rawick (ed) The American Slave, Vol. 9, (1972), 102].  Dogs played a significant role in the repressive machinery of bondage and they were admired by whites and dreaded by enslaved people.  As one ex-slave stated: ‘if the colored folks had started an uprising the white folks would have set the hounds on us and killed us’ [Rawick (ed.), The American Slave, Vol. 8, (1972) 227].


Enslaved Africans were not simply struck dead with fear in the face of the Pit Bull, runaways would plan their escapes with the dogs in mind and had different tactics to avoid them.  Ex-slaves recalled attempts to make the dogs ‘los’ de scent’ in various different ways  [John W. Blassingame, Slave Testimony (1977), 608].  Another ex-slave, recalling slave life, noted that ‘Sam greased his feet with rabbit-grease, and that kept the dogs from him. Aunt Jane said to me that she did not know what Sam used, but it looked like Sam could go off and stay as long as he wanted when the white folks got after him’ [Octavia V. Rogers Albert, The House of Bondage (1890), 22*].  Another former slave remembered instead how her father would ‘wade in water’ so ‘dey [the dogs] can’t track him’. [Rawick (ed.), The American Slave, Supplement, Series 2, Vol. 4, (1977), 45].


Not all of our enslaved ancestors struggled to avoid the savage Pit Bulls, choosing to confront these beast instead.  On ex-slave noted, ‘Dey had to keep knives from Pappy or when dem dogs cotch him he would jus’ cut ‘em up so dey would die’ (Rawick, The American Slave, Vol.12 (1972), 309-10). Barrow’s diary also collaborated these accounts, [p.348]: ‘Mr Turnbulls negros are cutting up a great many shines – 16 ran off & have defied him – are well armed killed two of his dogs while in pursuit of them’.


Despite the undeniable ferocity and tenacity of the Pit Bull, suggestions that ‘the slave is obliged too often to yield and be torn by the savage dogs who gratify the vengeful dispositions of the masters’ do not do justice to the scale of conflict between runaways and dogs [Anderson, Life and Narrative, 48].  


One tale of pursuit by dogs has it that a slave who constantly attempted escapes simply ‘bit a dog’s foot off.  They asked him why he did that and he said the dog bit him and he bit him back’ [George P. Rawick (ed.), The American Slave, Vol. 9, (1972), 38].


It is evident that the Pit Bull, a.k.a ‘Dog Men’ played a significant role in the repressive regime of slavery. Owners and patrollers marveled at the ingenuity and ferocity of the dogs themselves [Barrow, Diary, 378].  


Our ancestors feared the savage attacks and relentless pursuit of these beast, but also fought back and factored Pit Bulls into their escape plans. This is obviously not to say that Pit Bulls and enslaved people were always pitted against one another; enslaved people could sometimes forge friendly relations with the dogs, and sometimes used them in their escape, or appreciate their role in hunting. 


Yet despite this, the role of the Pit Bull in maintaining slavery was well known and the tale of a so-called emancipation that went neatly underscores how integral slaves saw Pit Bulls were to the slave system that oppressed them, and terrorized them AND HISTORIANS, AND OTHERS SHOULD TOO!

Membership in the Masonic "Boule" is about Blacks selling out their people for personal gain. The same model applies to whites. Our leaders are also house nigras in a world governed by the Masonic Jewish banking cartel. What passes for "politics" is a "conflict" between two Masonic factions, ultimately a charade. They are all crooks.

In 1904, the first African -American Greek Secret Society was formed in Philadelphia, by Dr. Henry Minton and five of his colleagues.  The Boule, (an acronym for Sigma Pi Phi) and pronounced "boo-lay"), was formed to bring together a select group of educated Black men and women.

Fashioned after Yale's Skull and Bones, the Boule historically takes pride in having provided leadership and service to Black Americans during the Great Depression, World Wars I and II, and the Civil Rights Movement.  

What could the Boule offer America's Blacks in the early 20th century?  Joining the exclusive secret society offered advancement and perks to select Blacks in return for loyalty to its objectives. 

The upper tenth of Blacks started to live the good life as Boule members, while the majority of ordinary Blacks were disenfranchised.  But what were the Boule's objectives?

The Boule recruits top Blacks in American Society into its ranks.  Today, 5000+ Archons, (male Boule members) and their wives, (Archousais), with 112 chapters, make up the wealthiest group of Black men and women on the planet. "Archon" means "demon" - the kind that like to keep hidden.


But to who does the Boule really serve?  The Satanic (mostly white) global elite!  As long as the Black member conforms to the rules, the riches will be in abundance; if not, down comes the hatchet.  Blackmail is part of the deal.   This Masonic secret society has a pyramid style like all the rest.  The lower ranks are kept from knowing what the upper ranks are doing. 

The early 20th century was a period of reconstruction.  Marcus Garvey's "Back to Africa" Movement was in full swing. Garvey represented genuine Black leadership.  W.E.B. Dubois, founding member of the NYC chapter of the Boule said, "The Boule was created to keep the black professional away from Marcus Garvey". 

The remaking of the House Negro was necessary to institute a group of Blacks who had a vested interest in protecting the Elite White System.   It was about selling out their brothers and sisters for power and money. The majority of Black lawyers, doctors, engineers and accountants were members of this secret club.
 

PREDATORY INTENTIONS
 

According to Bobby Hemmitt, underground Metaphysician and Occultist lecturer, "This Black elite society based on Skull and Bones (Yale) was chosen by the U.S. Government (Illuminati) to run Black neighborhoods."  See hereBobby Hemmitt: Connection between Black people, Secret Societies, and the KKK

Conspiracy Theorist and Futurologist Steve Cokely, had this to say:"Anywhere there are prominent professional Blacks, chances are they're in the Boule".  Martin Luther King and Jesse Jackson are reported to have been Boule members, among many other high profile, successful and moneyed Blacks such as Barack Obama, Bill Cosby, Al Sharpton  See this: Steve Cokely Exposed The Black Boule

 The members of the Boule pose as Freedom Fighters or Civil Rights Activists on the surface.  In truth, the elite members are operating for personal gain.  The Boule works in concert with their masters in maintaining the grip of Illuminati supremacy on their people.

ADVISERS TO THE KING
 

The Boule is another arm of the nefarious secret societies that recruit, indoctrinate and cull for the dark forces.  Therein are perks galore, power and notoriety all lying in wait for the easily compromised soul. 

This is an ancient story.  The New World Order is The Old World Order.  The elite Blacks of the Boule are culling and controlling their own for a slice of the elite white man's pie.

COMPROMISING SITUATIONS

Like other secret societies, the Boule encourages homosexual trysts as initiation practices.  This must be done to join the ranks.  Bobby Hemmit says, "Any kind of top-notch Negro gets together and they f*ck each other."

These perversions are then cataloged and stored on record.  Later, if needed, these abuses may be used as bargaining tools in the ULTIMATE GAME.  What is the Ultimate Game?  Capturing human souls. 

The enemy may appear to have a white face but it goes much deeper than that.  This is a force cloaked within many facades, personas, fictions and governing powers. 
 

CONCLUSION:

We, the people, have been handed cultural, political and religious belief systems used to great advantage by these generational Satanists and lying collectives.  

These elite systems promote dissension, division, hatred, bigotry and war.  According to the ruling powers, people are objects that need to be controlled.  Therefore, we have men and women in high places that are soulless and beyond the reach of normal reasoning processes.

We have an ancient enemy with a large collection of demonic assistants.  The evil elite has had a good run.  Though they may be certain skin colors, certain nationalities and creeds, they are apart from you and me.  They have long ago abdicated any and all connections to a shared humanity.




It’s 2018, 154 years since the ‘abolishment of slavery’, and the descendants of the worst atrocity in U.S. and world history, chattel slavery, are still paying taxes to the very system of government that destroyed their way of life. Without ever being repaired in the physical & fiscal form, every year black Americans openly, willingly, and foolishly pay the U.S. government more than $485 Billion in federal & state taxes.

The sum that black Americans pay in total taxes is equal to the entire GDP of the nations of Dubai ($378 billion), Israel ($348 Billion), Poland ($469 Billion), Hong Kong ($334 Billion), and Iran ($427 Billion); this is an absurd and a disproportionate burden on our people, and should be challenged immediately.

Black Americans have never and will never receive the proper representation from paying taxes in a society that rather spend $1 million on a single dog park, yet cuts the federal housing budget by billions for needy families. This is called ‘taxation without representation’. In addition, the unconstitutional establishment of the ‘Internal Revenue Service’ has allowed the U.S. government to use Black tax revenue to fund every wasteful spending venture imaginable.  

The Black American tax-payer has become the personal piggy bank and financiers of white supremacy, and subsequently their own demise.

Although Black Americans live with the highest level of poverty, the lowest earning potential, worst schools, worst judicial system , and poor quality civic services, they still feel compelled to comply with the ‘tax code’ as its written, and continue to voluntarily supply the necessary funding to advance their oppressors white supremacy agendas.

Within the past 10 years Black American tax-payers have paid enough in state & federal taxes to pay-in-full for every war the United States has fought in the last 150 years.

Many Black Americans have no understanding of the history of black taxation in the U.S., and have been taught that freed black slaves received reparations in the form of ’40 acres of land & a mule’, some were even taught that Blacks who were not slaves largely enjoyed the same set of rights and privileges as their White counterparts until Jim Crow. Both of these beliefs are incorrect.

To provide the proper historic context for the discussion of the taxation of Blacks in America we must review the prevalent public perception of so-called ‘free Blacks’ through the lens of judicial opinions and legislative acts.

Lawmakers & tax collectors often characterized free Blacks as a class unworthy of envy, lazy and incapable of self-care, destined to live in a state of squalor and degeneracy far below the state of the slave, and fated to create a burden on society as a whole. By the end of the Revolutionary War, lawyers & judges alike openly stated that free Blacks were immoral and posed a danger to societal and economic interests.

These opinions and resulting laws make it clear that slave states and free states regarded free Blacks as an “evil” to be avoided.  The intensity of these beliefs varied from state to state, but they formed the backdrop against which states passed all manner of laws concerning free Black people, including, tax legislation.


BLACK TAXATION WITHOUT REPRESENTATION!!!

John Dickinson’s Letters from a Farmer in Pennsylvania was the most widely read pamphlet in the period leading up to the Revolutionary War. In a series of letters, Dickinson articulated the reasons why the taxes the British imposed on the colonies were unjust. He concluded one of those letters with the following message:

“Those who are taxed without their own consent, given by themselves, or their representatives, are slaves. We are taxed without our own consent, given by ourselves or our representatives. We are therefore—I speak with grief—I speak with indignation—we are slaves.”

The primary purpose of taxation is to raise public revenue. In this regard, the tax policies governing slaves differed little throughout U.S. history. States often made no distinction between the races when taxing personal and real property. This process allowed states to substantially tax holdings of free Blacks without offering any form of representation.

The best example of this unfair taxation and burden on Blacks was the ‘Freedom Tax’. They used the ‘Freedom Tax’ to discourage the growth of the free Black population. Blacks could have their freedom, provided they paid actual taxes in various incarnations. The ‘Freedom Tax’ was a fact of life for free Blacks in most states.

Maryland v. Dorsey - provides an absurd example of unfair taxation of Blacks—Maryland’s first inheritance tax—constituted a freedom tax. Maryland sued the executor of an estate for 2.5 percent of the slaves ‘appraised value.  The Maryland Court of Appeals summarily reiterating slaves’ firm status as property under Maryland law. The court’s characterization of slaves and freed Blacks as property further reiterated the law requiring those who inherited slaves to pay 2.5 percent of the slaves’ appraised value—around $400— today’s equivalent of about $10,000 - to the State within thirteen months or risk losing their property (slave) or  entire estate.

Most slaves were left with burden of paying this tax themselves, or worked to repay their former masters the tax in the fields.


The Maryland court of appeals expounded on the soundness of its holding:

“But is there, in point of fact, any injustice or hardship in this tax? Or, have freed slaves any right to complain of it? We think not. . . .”

Maryland’s inheritance tax was not the only incarnation of a ‘Freedom Tax’. Many municipalities in throughout the United States imposed taxes on free Blacks that they did not impose on Whites. For example, St. Augustine, Florida imposed a $3 tax on all free Black males and a $1.50 tax on all free Black females who stayed in the city for a period of two weeks or longer.

Some states imposed special ‘free Black taxes’. Virginia, for instance, imposed a special tax on free Blacks to raise funds to transplant them to Liberia “as soon as practicably possible.” In addition to taxing freedom, this tax actively sought to fund the forced removal of free Blacks from the state.

The ‘Poll Tax’ was the most direct freedom tax states imposed. The Poll tax was not directly tied to the act of voting. Poll taxes—also known as a head and capitation taxes—are simply fixed taxes levied on each person within a jurisdiction. Poll taxes were a flat income tax of sorts—if you resided in the state, county, or municipality that imposed the tax, you had to pay it.

Well before the Fourteenth Amendment rendered the practice unconstitutional, states routinely levied poll taxes on their inhabitants in an unequal manner based on race. For example, Alabama’s 1852 Poll tax established the following rates:

• “On every white male inhabitant between the ages of twenty-one and forty-five years; fifty cents.

• “On every male free negro between twenty-one and fifty years of age; two dollars.

• “On every female free negroe between twenty-one and Forty-five years of age; one dollar.”

And Mississippi levied similar poll taxes:

• “A poll tax of forty cents on each free white male person, between the ages of twenty-one and fifty years.

• “A poll tax of one dollar on every free, colored male person, between the ages of twenty-one and fifty years.”

To add insult to injury, some free Blacks who failed to pay taxes became quasi-slaves through states’ debt collection schemes. Taking a cue from slave states, the sheriff could force individuals who did not pay these taxes to work on the highways to pay the taxes.

Other states enforced a ‘School Tax’ which forced newly freed Black slaves to pay a tax in order to attend segregated ‘Blacks only schools’.  Black schools were commonly found in the most deplorable condition, often lacking a roof atop its school house’s, and books to read. Ohio, the Free State with the largest Black population outside of New England and the Mid-Atlantic, initially gave free Blacks a partial exemption from the school tax.

In 1847, Illinois made special provisions to return the school taxes taken from free Blacks. And in 1851, Iowa exempted all of the property belonging to free Blacks “from taxation for school purposes.” Indiana exempted free Blacks from paying school taxes in 1853. Kansas did not exempt free Blacks from paying school taxes, but it specified that any taxes collected from free Blacks should be used to educate the children of free Blacks.


BLACK TAX REBELLION!!!

In 1780 a group of free Blacks from Massachusetts petitioned the state’s House of Representatives to be exempt from paying poll and property taxes. They mentioned several reasons why such an exemption would be expedient, but a strong undercurrent of “no taxation without representation” ran throughout the petition:

“The petition of several poor negroes and mulattoes, who are inhabitants of the town of Dartmouth, humbly showeth:

That we being chiefly of the African extract, and by reason of long bondage and hard slavery, we have been deprived of enjoying the profits of our labor or the advantage of inheriting estates from our parents, as our neighbors the white people do, having some of us not long enjoyed our own freedom; yet of late, contrary to the invariable custom and practice of the country, we have been, and now are, taxed both in our polls and that small pittance of estate which, through much hard labor and industry, we have got together to sustain ourselves and families with all. We apprehend it, therefore, to be hard usage, and will doubtless (if continued) reduce us to a state of beggary, whereby we shall become a burthen to others, if not timely prevented by the interposition of your justice and power.

Your petitioners further show, that we apprehend ourselves to be aggrieved, in that, while we are not allowed the privilege of freemen of the State, having no vote or influence in the election of those that tax us, yet many of our color (as is well known) have cheerfully entered the field of battle in the defense of the common cause, and that (as we conceive) against a similar exertion of power (in regard to taxation) too well known to need a recital in this place.

We most humble request, therefore, that you would take our unhappy case into your serious consideration, and, in your wisdom and power, grant us relief from taxation, while under our present depressed circumstances . . . .”

This petition was unsuccessful—the racist white supremacist in the House of Representatives took no actions to exempt either the petitioners or free Blacks as a class from taxation.

Although in 1815 a group of property-owning free Blacks filed a similar petition with Connecticut’s general assembly. Like the Massachusetts petitioners, these men DID NOT ask for the right to vote. Instead, they sought a TAX EXEMPTION, again appealing to the revolutionary mantra of “no taxation without representation.” Additional groups of Connecticut free Blacks filed similar petitions, and the state finally exempted the property of free persons of color from taxation in 1844.

These petitions did not enjoy unanimous support within the Black community. ‘The Colored American’, a New York newspaper run by free Blacks, ran an editorial criticizing Rhode Island’s Blacks for their successful petition to be relieved of taxation if the state would not extend the right to vote to them. The editorial characterized the move as “bad policy, calculated most successfully to defeat their objective” of obtaining the legal right to vote.  It expressed the view that exempting Blacks from taxation provided Whites “with a pretense to withhold . . . the elective franchise.” The paper feared that Whites would make the following argument:

“Why, we have released them from taxation as an offset, at their request; what more do they want? They ought to be satisfied.”

There has not been a successful Black tax rebellion since...


SOLUTION = PERMANENT TAX EXEMPTION!!!

To paraphrase the classic white law maker, Blacks in America were and are still considered ‘idle beings’, incapable of earning a living, and a burden on the state... Since the white supremacist law maker has openly admitted on record that the taxing blacks would result in an imagined unequal burden on the State, then, why not immediately provide 'tax exempt status' to ALL Black Americans and their estates??? 

For states deciding whether to impose additional taxes on black Americans today is not a difficult task. Under the current system of white supremacy economically handicapping Blacks feeds the popular narrative that blacks need assistance to feed, cloth, and house themselves; blacks struggle to obtain these necessities. And in a purely economic sense, this is partly true throughout much of the United States given the fact that the average black worker earns significantly less than his White counterpart.

Based on this data (Click here for additional Data), the average Black worker would need a substantial amount of wealth to pay taxes at its current level and still live a comfortable life; or even expect to catch up with the average white workers quality of life.

If current income levels and tax rates remain the same for blacks, and taxes paid by black Americans to the U.S. government were solely used to take care of the needs of blacks, the government would be able to pay for all of the services that Black Americans use, and still have an additional surplus of $35 Billion dollars each year to fund the education of 8 million school age black children from k-12th grade.


U.S. Budget vs. Race Use of Government Services (2014):


Social Security - Whites Use 84.07% (of total budget) or $1060.96 Billion

Medicare - Whites Use 76% (of total budget) or $383.90 Billion

Medicaid - Whites Use 39.06% (of total budget) or $185.93 Billion

Welfare - Whites Use 38.8% (of total budget) or $183.14 Billion


Social Security - Blacks Use 9.31% (of total budget) or $117.5 Billion

MedicareBlacks Use 10% (of total budget) or $50.5 Billion

MedicaidBlacks Use 19.9% (of total budget) or $94.72 Billion

Welfare - Blacks Use 39.8% (of total budget) or $187.86 Billion


The current tax burden that Blacks in America carry each year is crushing our people financially, and should be removed immediately. Consequently providing ‘Tax Exempt’ status to ALL Black Americans who are paying taxes in any capacity, rather local, state, or federal, would provide an immediate form of financial reparations. 


As it stands the current tax burden on the backs of Blacks is more desirable to white Americans, as opposed to an increase in the Black population’s wealth. Since Blacks pay less than 9% of the total taxes collected in the U.S. this sum can be raised easily in other areas of government, and or alleviated. State & federal taxes today do not succeed in truly benefiting Black Americans, but they instead helped slow their financial & social growth. The taxation of Blacks is greatest form of sabotage to the Black community and should be the cornerstone of any future rebellion.

 Although unknown to the  black community, the American Santa Claus’s history and character derived from the Knights of the KUX KLUX KLANS version of an elder Klans member; known as a "Grand Dragon Klansman. The modern day Santa Claus was created during a stage in the Klan's history of internal restructuring and public relations rebranding. The KKK was preparing to go underground and autonomous to all jurisdictions, they were preparing for physiological warfare; and Santa Claus became the poster child of their charitable movement in the United States.

The image of the ‘American Santa Claus (KLAWS)’  is generally depicted as a fat, jolly, old white-bearded fart wearing a red coat with white fur collar and cuffs, white-fur-cuffed red trousers, and black leather belt and boots; this is nearly the exact same uniform of a Klansman.

This controversial folklore notably derives from St Nicholas (known in Dutch as Sinterklaas, a slave master who arrives by ship to Europe every year with his slaves ‘black Peters’ and gifts for well-behaved white children), merged with the English character ‘Father Christmas’, and further refined by the white supremacist over the early twentieth and late ninetieth century became the English-speaking word as “Santa Claus”.

After the Civil War, whites in America awoke to a new reality, the collective power of black Americans, economically and politically. This new collective power held by blacks was seen as a threat and the newly formed Kux Klux Klan were destined to usurp ALL power away from black citizens. This destructive agenda was implemented in the most violent ways imaginable, through many massacres and murderous riots. The Klan used Santa Claus also known as a "KrisKringle" as their ‘Grand Dragon Santa Claus’. No other massacre shows this bold, absurd use of the KKK's newly imagined Santa than in the ‘Vicksburg Massacre of 1874’.

THE VICKSBURG MASSACRE & SANTA

In the first few years after the Civil War, white Confederate veterans developed the KUX KLUX KLAN, beginning in the northern states; it begin to open chapters throughout the South and attacked black families at their homes, places of business, and openly in the streets.  By the mid-1870s, new white paramilitary groups had arisen in the Deep South, including the 'Red Shirts' in Mississippi, as whites struggled to regain political and social power over the black majority. Elections were marked by violence and fraud as whites worked to suppress black voting power.

Shit hit the fan in August 1874 a black Sheriff, Peter Cosby, was elected in Vicksburg. Letters by a white farmer, and former plantation owner, Mr. Batchelor, detail the preparations of whites for what he described as a "race war", including acquisition of the newest guns,  the Winchester 16 mm.

On December 7, 1874, white men disrupted a black Republican meeting celebrating Cosby's victory and kidnapped him, tortured him, before running him out of town. Sheriff Cosby, advised ALL blacks from rural areas to return home, or find immediate emergency shelter; during this all out race war, and purge, heavily armed whites attacked innocent blacks wherever they found them, murdering them in the streets.

Twenty-first century historians estimates that over 300 black citizens were killed in the city and the surrounding area of Claiborne County. The KKK’s Red Shirts were active in Vicksburg and other Mississippi areas, and black pleas to the federal government for protection fell on deaf ears to then President Ulysses S. Grant. The governor of Mississippi, Adelbert Ames, who had purposefully left the state during the race war eventually, sent a request to Grant for federal troops 5 months after the purge had begin.

That very Christmas season of 1874 in Vicksburg, Mississippi, the ‘Red shirts’ held a huge Santa Klaws parade, organized by the Santa Klaws Klan, they proceeded through the streets of the city, cheered by the white citizens for their victory in the race war. The Santa Klaws chief,a ‘Grand Dragon Santa’ rode through the parade in a four-horse chariot, distributed gifts to the blood thirst white citizenry. The ‘Santa Klaws’ parade came just weeks after the massacre. The ‘Grand Marshal’  of the ‘Santa Klaws’ parade in Vicksburg, Mississippi was ‘Santa’ dressed in the uniform of a ‘Grand Dragon Klansman’, the parade was used by the Klan as a display of white triumph over blacks and a celebration of the end to black economic and political power in Vicksburg. The Klan’s use of Christmas was meant to convey a return to normality and a world of white supremacy.

Following an investigation by congress into the massacre, as reported by the New York Times in 1874, no one was ever prosecuted for the deaths, and ‘The Red Shirts KKK’ and other white insurgent terrorist suppressed voting blacks in large numbers and launched multiple other riots killing many blacks during the elections of 1875.

GRAND DRAGON SANTA ARRIVES

In the early twentieth century, things had dramatically changed, blacks begin to openly reject and organize against the Klan; and for the new Kux Klux Klan, the goal was respectability and a place in the mainstream of white Protestant politics. During their revival and recruitment of hundreds of thousands of new members in in the 1920’s, the Klan sought to gloss over their terrorist past and themselves  as the voice of the middle class, angry about urbanization, and internal migration by blacks into the northern Klan states in large numbers. The Klan wished to distance itself from the image as violent, murderous terrorist night-riders, who murdered thousands of black men, women, and children, and adopt the image of concerned citizens, serving the community, as the Masons, theLions Club, the Elks, and theRotarians; and to that end the Christmas season was used to show their charitable side.

In Indianapolis, Indiana, the home state of the KKK, during the Christmases of 1922 & 1923 the Klan attracted publicity with their distribution of truckloads of food and clothing to poor families by Santa Claus, including, they were happy to point out, black families. In Atlanta the Klan donated money to the ‘Christmas fund’ for former slaves; in Richmond the contributed to the upkeep of the African American old folks’ home, often bringing  a ‘Grand Dragon Santa Claus’ along for an appearance; in Buffalo, the ‘Protestant Home for Unprotected Children’ received warm clothing for 150 kids, the Times printed a photograph showing hooded Klansmen and their Grand Dragon Santa Claus, presenting an elderly black couple with a radio. In Detroit  and SALT Lake City masked Santas opened many of the Klans Christmas rallies, and parades. Masked Santas were also used for collecting money for Kux Klux Klan Charities… HO HO HO!!!

The Klan’s attempt to make use of Christmas and Santa Claus as an effective public relations tool continued into the late 1920’s & 1930’s, and in 1933 their bid to erect a burning cross at the Columbus, Ohio, Christmas display erupted into controversy, leading to a court decision that protected the Kux Klux Klan’s right to free expression.

BLACKS CHRISTMAS  &BLACK SANTA

The great Civil Rights struggles in the United States during the 1960’s spawned a number of attempts to use Christmas to advance blacks Americans rights. During the Montgomery, Alabama bus boycott  of 1955-1956 lead by the M.L.King. King suggested a boycott og holiday spending in white downtown stores; the money could be saved or given to charity or the Montgomery Improvement Association. Activists learned that threats to the white establishment’s pocketbook were an effective tool, and so was born the “Black Christmas” movement amongst black Christian activist in American cities. At the time, few if any in the black community decorated their homes in support of the young commandos, an NAACP youth group.  

But, in 1968 things begin to change, and after the death of King and various others in the Civil Rights movement the “Black Christmas” movement, although flawed, became corrupted by white influences, politicians, and obscure Klansmen posing as white moderates working from with in the Civil Rights movement to under mind the collective power of blacks as it had been successful in Vicksburg in 1874.

To expand upon the notion of “Black Christmas”, Christmas parades sponsored by the ‘Black Solidarity Committee for Community Improvement’ begin to march through North Carolina the same time as white Christmas Parades; bands played, beauty queens waved from decorated floats, and not to be out done by their Protestant Christian rivals, the Black Church, as corrupt as it is, for the FIRST TIME presented a ‘Black Santa Claus’, a direct variation of the Klans ‘Grand Dragon Santa’ that terrorized the black community for decades, who then proceeded to threw candy to children and sang “Merry Christmas!!!”

The white exploitation and of Christmas & Santa Claus (Klaws) as a tool of white supremacy continues to this day. The very image of Santa and his Klan uniform has been criticized for its racial exclusion and racist historical past in the Netherlands and Spain.  Today, however, Santa has achieved a sort of respectability,  recognized on American postal stamps and in Presidential greetings, visualized as an imperial white God of goodness and charity. One can say the Kux Klux Klan successfully integrated its image, and fortitude, into American pop culture, and even made blacks except him into their homes.

The cult known as the Jehovah's Witnesses have amessed a two million dollar tab with the state of California, and that tab grows by $4,000 every day, all because the group won't hand over internal documents that detail alleged child sex abuse in its churches; also known as Kingdom Halls. A San Diego man named Osbaldo Padron has made several claims that he was sexually abused as a child in the 1990s by an adult congregation member and filed suit against the Jehovah's Witnesses for not stepping in to stop and protect him. The San Diego Union-Tribune reports the church allegedly knew in 1982 that Gonzalo Campos had molested a child; Campos later admitted to abusing at least eight kids between that year and 1995 (he fled to Mexico in 2010). Padron wants internal documents that he believes has vital evidence to be released, but the Jehovah's Witnesses won't hand them over, in violation of a court order.


The Jehovah's Witnesses have long held a vicious record of child sexual abuse within it's ranks, and a history of shielding those persons as well. These latest allegations come as other christian organizations & cults have settled massive lawsuits.


In 2015, it was disclosed that the Australia Branch of Jehovah's Witnesses had records of 1,006 alleged perpetrators of child sexual abuse, relating to more than 1,800 victims since 1950, none of which were reported to police, according to the Australian Royal Commission.


In 2002, Jehovah's Witnesses' Office of Public Information published its policy for elders to report allegations of child abuse to the authorities only where required by law to do so, even if there was only one witness. The organization says that individuals known to have sexually abused a child are generally prohibited from holding any position of responsibility,and that, unless considered by the congregation elders to demonstrate repentance, such a person is typically disfellowshipped; a form of removing a person from the church for set period of time.


In 2016 a UK judge upheld a ruling against the Jehovah's Witnesses for failing to protect a victim of child sexual abuse, and the supreme court rejected an attempt by the Watch Tower Society to block a commision inquiry into how the organization handles allegations of abuse.


If allegations of child abuse satisfy the organization's religious tenets, an internal judicial committee is formed, and the accused individual may potentially be relieved of positions of responsibility in the congregation. Anyone found to have sexually molested a child, based upon the criteria established by the organization, and deemed by the elders to not demonstrate sufficient repentance is disfellowshipped from the congregation and shunned.


The elders are instructed to gauge the abuser's repentance based upon their subsequent visible support of congregation activities, such as attending congregation meetings, and actively supporting the denomination's door-to-door work. The sustained participation in the group's activities has resulted in sexual predators remaining in good standing in the congregation.


Congretation elders were aware that Campos had previously abused at least one other child, but assigned Campos to instruct Lopez. For failing to protect Lopez from a known offender and for its subsequent refusal to co-operate with the court, the Watch Tower Society was ordered to pay US$13.5 million to the plaintiff. The Watch Tower Society appealed the ruling. The appeal court vacated the judgment, granting that lesser sanctions might compel the Watchtower Society to comply with the court's requirements. The law firm representing Lopez has filed similar cases in the 5 other states including California.

(RT) An armed conflict between Riyadh and Tehran would have a major impact on oil markets and the global economy. RT asked experts what a war between the two Middle East superpowers would mean for crude prices.

   

If a conflict happens, oil prices could increase 500 percent.


Ivan Karyakin, an investment analyst at Global FX, points out that the area of possible conflict pumps a third of global oil. Saudi Arabia, Iraq, Iran, the United Arab Emirates, Kuwait, Oman, and Qatar together produce about 28 million barrels per day, which is slightly less than 30 percent of global production; prices will go up immediately to $150-180 per barrel, he said.


“Then everything will depend on the duration of the conflict. The world market will survive two or three days of the conflict. If the conflict lasts a week, then prices will rise to $200 or higher, and this will have long-term consequences"


A sharp jump in oil prices and other hydrocarbons will threaten the stability of the entire global economy, as it will lead to a surge in inflation, warns Andrey Dyachenko, Head of Private Solutions Department of Сastle Family Office in Russia  “At the time of relatively low growth rates, a significant jump in inflation will lead to the impoverishment of a large part of the world population.”

WASHINGTON (AP) — The Food and Drug Administration has approved the first drug in the United States with a digital ingestion tracking system in an unprecedented step to ensure that patients with mental disorders take the medicine prescribed for them.


The drug Abilify MyCite was developed by Otsuka Pharmaceutical Co., Ltd. Abilify was first approved by the FDA in 2002 to treat schizophrenia, and the ingestible sensor, made by Proteus Digital health, was initially approved for marketing in 2012. The agency says the digitally enhanced medication "works by sending a message from the pill's sensor to a wearable patch."

Dr. Mitchell Mathis of the FDA says officials support "use of new technology in prescription drugs and is committed to working with companies to understand how the new technology might benefit patients and prescribers."
