Family, please stop being misled by the deus ex machina that is the Changeling. He and his cohorts would have you believe that theirs are the mighty shoulders upon which we stand -- they are not, but hers are:
Assata Shakur in Her Own Words: Rare Recording of Activist Named to FBI Most Wanted Terrorists List
Angela Davis and Assata Shakur’s Lawyer Denounce FBI’s Adding of Exiled Activist to Terrorists List
Designated a domestic terrorist? 40 years later? What the hell is this, some kind of dog whistle to distract from the very white faces of the FBI/CIA-followed (if not handled), Tsarnaev brothers?
Family, our culture doesn't stand a chance in these alleged United States if we don't stop living this life with our eyes wide shut. We must all begin to think critically, act purposefully -- and become our OWN "agents of change!"

Ain't dis some shit? Perfect title for this post. I assume the ass-coverer is Holder.
nomad...I know right??!! And yeah, even though it was a "Rented Negro" (as Abagond refers to guys like him) from the FBI that announced this madness -- there's no way in hayell Holder, in his position as head of the certainly misnamed, "Dept. of Justice," wasn't privy to what was coming down the pike. {smdh}
Been trying to keep up with your posts 'mad and here's my unsolicited advice to you -- Take care of your damned self! Mkay?
Peace...
See, I feel a connection. Ok this first. Of course Holder knew about this he is the Top Cop, how could he not. Holder's cultural Her-i-tage from the Caribbean, Barbados to be exact. It was no coincidence that U.S. Navy S.E.A.L.S. and Marine Recon were tied up within striking distance to the island of Jamaica along with Army special operations teams aboard a C-130 on the tarmac of Norman Manley Airport when Obama demanded Christopher "Dudus" Coke. DEA (they have special operations teams as well) arrested Coke after the Jamaican Army and police fought a 3 day battle to get him. I suppose the Jamaican government was reminded what Americans do to their own as in the case of the Africa Family's demise in Philadelphia under Negro Mayor Wilson Goode. My point is Holder is the pitbull in the BeelzObama's camp and carries out the orders of the elite that He and BeelzObama work for. Also, by adding Queen Shakur to the Terrorist list, could give them legal (no lawful) means to encroach on Cuban soil to kidnap her and return her to the U.S. prison industrial complex. So, who better than a black skinned, Caribbean politician to invade Caribbean and for that matter African soil with less backlash than if it were a pale face?
Sis Deb...many of us aren't mislead and I feel a movement coming about not only among those who I must say have surprised me but the loyalists to call the administration out on this one. For many years I felt reasonably o.k. that Sister Assata would be relatively safe in Cuba. There is a set-up here and it would be interesting to hear what the "sanctioned black leaders" for the Obama Administration have to say about this issue. Al Sharpton an opportunist for years was involved with the FBI in the 80's to capture Assata. He failed and I wonder what the admin. will have him to do this time.
It has heartened me some...that many black blog sites I've visited have sounded the bell in some form about the injustice of the Assata Shakur saga. Joseph Lowndes also wrote a fact based piece and I see you've provided a link to the article as well. We must continue to agitate about this one.
I remember during 1970 Angela Davis (another fbi declared terrorist) was also on the run and captured; the world rallied around her. James Baldwin wrote a letter to her and stated if they take her in the morning...they will come for us that night. Not an exact quote but the essence of his statement.
We must remain vigilant and appeal to Cuba not to give her up!!.
When Jay Z, easily got the ok to go to Cuba I wondered who in his camp is an agent.
Peace!
Deb, Peace to you and your family concerning your relatives transitioning to the other world.

Ironic that the people who fought for the opportunities that enable Ass-coverer and Dickhead to achieve these positions of power are persecuted by these opportunists. The field Negroes secure positions of power blacks.The house Negroes who are the ones most able to take advantage of these opportunities turn around and use these powers against the very folks that fought for their right to be where they are. Sad. Sad.
Amenta, Hey! "See, I feel a connection."
Good! I have to admit I wasn't familiar with the Christopher "Dudus" Coke affair (so you know I had to go look it up! :-D). After I did though, I shuddered and shook my damned head.
Now I'm well acquainted with MOVE, from the '78 shooting (I graduated college that year), to the '85 bombing (I got off activity-duty in the Navy that year). I shuddered then too. How in the hayell you drop a fuckin' BOMB on Black folk -- in a major metropolitan city??!! {smmfh}
"Also, by adding Queen Shakur to the Terrorist list, could give them legal (no lawful) means to encroach on Cuban soil to kidnap her and return her to the U.S. prison industrial complex.

No shit! I'm with Lowndes (HuffPo article) on this one -- Last time Fidel was seen was in February of this year. He may not be dead, but they're TESTING Raul -- in Fidel's face!! And again, I agree with you, this is not something they would even ATTEMPT with a strong, virile Fidel and a white man in the White House (assassination, yes -- several times, but not this!). BeelzObama and Holder are such fuckin' Trojan Horse tools! Any and everything that happens after he gets his damned library will be blamed on Black folk and that's OK with them cuz, "They made white history." {smdh}
"When Jay Z, easily got the ok to go to Cuba I wondered who in his camp is an agent."
You're the second person I've read that said that! As I said here, I doubt THEY had a damned 007 clue, but y'all could be right, they could have been the Changeling's "useful idiots!"
Appreciate your thoughts on my family. It's been a strange and heavy three months, Brother -- mostly because it reminds, as my own Brother said to me, "We're the old people now, Deb." In itself not a bad thing if, as "the Old People," we were doing what the hell we were supposed to be doing all along. I can't lie, I wasn't. I bought into the integration thing for far too long and by the time I really woke the hell up -- it seemed way too late.
"You may like this video of Assata Shakur done in 2008 released on her 60th birthday."
And yes, I did like the video! As a matter of fact, I downloaded it onto a DVD for my sons so they can show documentation against the bullshit (we do live in the digital age these days!). Thank you for that.
Sis. Carolyn, great to "see you!"
"I feel a movement coming about not only among those who I must say have surprised me but the loyalists to call the administration out on this one. For many years I felt reasonably o.k. that Sister Assata would be relatively safe in Cuba."
You don't know how much I want to believe you're right on that movement! I'm pretty dejected about it all myself after having been home. But one can hope, No?!
"There is a set-up here and it would be interesting to hear what the "sanctioned black leaders" for the Obama Administration have to say about this issue. Al Sharpton an opportunist for years was involved with the FBI in the 80's to capture Assata. He failed and I wonder what the admin. will have him to do this time."
I agree, my only question remains to what end? Outside of testing Raul, Why now? I just smell a rat or two, or three or four. This announcement has made plenty people 's head swerve -- AWAY from the crooks and liars IMHO. I can't help but think, given with whom we are dealing -- "By the pricking of my thumbs, something wicked this way comes." The "pricking" being the FBI's announcement. As for the Right Rev. Al -- his opportunistic behind can go straight to hell as far as I'm concerned!
"It has heartened me some...that many black blog sites I've visited have sounded the bell in some form about the injustice of the Assata Shakur saga."
I've perused some Black sites and have found both good and bad. Some going along with the pat MSM version of the incident that imprisoned her, and others, speaking out vociferously against it. I agree with you -- "We must continue to agitate about this one."
I remember during 1970 Angela Davis (another fbi declared terrorist) was also on the run and captured; the world rallied around her. James Baldwin wrote a letter to her and stated if they take her in the morning...they will come for us that night. Not an exact quote but the essence of his statement."
Sister -- Angela Davis was my Shero! I've got to dig out and post my favorite Afro-wearing, tribute to Angela Davis photo from back in the day! And of course, anybody who reads this blog knows that James Baldwin was my literary Hero! -- he said what he meant and meant what he said (exactly the writer I hope to be when I grow up! Thanks for reminding me of his "letter," I think I shall dig it up and post it.
We must remain vigilant and appeal to Cuba not to give her up!!.
We absolutely must! I noticed on "Your Black World," there's a petition from ColorOfChange in that regard. I'm hesitant about signing theirs though, especially given how "in the tank" they were for the Changeling during his 2008 campaign (Van Jones, a product of the group, certainly got his taste of glory and defeat at the hands of Obama & Co." -- haven't heard a peep from his ass since! And rightfully so...
nomad..."The house Negroes who are the ones most able to take advantage of these opportunities turn around and use these powers against the very folks that fought for their right to be where they are. Sad. Sad. "
Ain't much changed, Brother -- not much at all.
"...We're the old people now, Deb"
I feel this too Deb.
Peace!
Amenta..."I feel this too Deb."
Like I said up-thread -- "In itself not a bad thing if, as "the Old People," we were doing what the hell we were supposed to be doing all along."
It is, at once, totally obvious that we weren't -- or we wouldn't have ended up with either BeelzObama OR, Brother Ass-Coverer!
As I continue to "do my first works over," I'm angry -- at myself -- for a lot of shit my "educated" ass missed, did not even think about, or do (translation: got a real pity party going on after going home, yet again).
Peace back atcha Man...
As you know, no doubt, today BAR knocks this out the park. But you were ahead of the game; putting the blame squarely where it belongs: Barack fuckin Obama.
nomad...Yes they did! And you know, given the dearth of reaction from the Black blogosphere, I'm damned glad they did!
I just call 'em like I see 'em, 'mad -- no more no less. I am SO SICK of this man and the undying loyalty my people give him, despite how he treats us as a people. "Makes me wonder sometimes, how we keep from goin' under."
"dearth of reaction"
Good one, Deb. WTF is wrong with black people (bloggers) That's exactly what was puzzling to me when Barama announced (Grand Bargain) he wanted to cut Social Security. Dearth of reaction!!! WTF??? I don't know why the color of Barack's skin is blinding these folks to the assault he has mounted against them. Maybe it will be clearer to'em this go round now that he has targeted black activism directly. To my esteemed fellow bloggers I say, WAKE THE FUCK UP!!!
nomad..."That's exactly what was puzzling to me when Barama announced (Grand Bargain) he wanted to cut Social Security"
You and me both, Man. I can't understand why it's okay -- not just to Black folk, but to EVERYBODYwho's worked most of their lives, seeing that "FICA" chunk come out of their damned checks every payday -- to have this administration decide to cut benefits already earned to, seems to me, cover-up the fact that the gubment's had its hands in that Social Security cookie jar, "borrowing" all along!
Is it me? Am I the crazy one?
if u crazy um crazy 2
I feel like dem same folks coming for sista Shakur in Cuba...gone be damn sure coming for me in dis here U.S. of A. They done re-declared war and it sure in the hell feel like ME (and all my sis and bro kin) are enemy number one. Surreal realism...i need to think. Thank you for your commentary on this one.
nomad..."if u crazy um crazy 2"
Always good to know one's not alone!
jblu74...Hey there!! How've you been?? You're very welcome about the commentary, but like you -- I needed "to think" this one through for a minute. And I agree with you, " They done re-declared war and it sure in the hell feel like ME (and all my sis and bro kin) are enemy number one." What the hell else can it be??
I suppose the more important question is, "Why do they so fear who we are -- STILL?" I mean, they've murdered all our real leaders; locked down most of our population; putrified the liberation movement via the airwaves with black-faced sell-outs; installed the deus ex machine and his cohorts in the White House; dumbed-down any relevant, Black media through "dolla-bill" coercion; infiltrated the voice of the hip-hop movement of the streets, with the gleam of big record-label deals; misappropriated most of our culture, so much so that it is a mockery of itself; confused integration with being mindless and exactly like "white Mike"; erased our culture, wherever and whenever they could -- need I go on?
The sad, but brilliant thing is, they've used this Trojan Horse and his cohorts, who look like us, to TOTALLY neutralize any kind of resistance from us -- and the majority of us have bought into that shit, lock, stock and barrel! Where do we go from here? Do WE even know?? It pains me to no end how powerful a people we've been, and are -- but we still don't realize it.
Good to "see" you again. Thanks for listening to the rant. Don't be a stranger...
