  • Resources on Racial Justice June 8, 2020
    Resources on Racial Justice June 8, 2020 1 7 Anti-Racist Books Recommended by Educators and Activists from the New York Magazine https://nymag.com/strategist/article/anti-racist-reading- list.html?utm_source=insta&utm_medium=s1&utm_campaign=strategist By The Editors of NY Magazine With protests across the country calling for systemic change and justice for the killings of George Floyd, Ahmaud Arbery, Breonna Taylor, and Tony McDade, many people are asking themselves what they can do to help. Joining protests and making donations to organizations like Know Your Rights Camp, the ACLU, or the National Bail Fund Network are good steps, but many anti-racist educators and activists say that to truly be anti-racist, we have to commit ourselves to the ongoing fight against racism — in the world and in us. To help you get started, we’ve compiled the following list of books suggested by anti-racist organizations, educators, and black- owned bookstores (which we recommend visiting online to purchase these books). They cover the history of racism in America, identifying white privilege, and looking at the intersection of racism and misogyny. We’ve also collected a list of recommended books to help parents raise anti-racist children here. Hard Conversations: Intro to Racism - Patti Digh's Strong Offer This is a month-long online seminar program hosted by authors, speakers, and social justice activists Patti Digh and Victor Lee Lewis, who was featured in the documentary film, The Color of Fear, with help from a community of people who want and are willing to help us understand the reality of racism by telling their stories and sharing their resources.

  • The Role of Police in a Racist-Capitalist Society
    The Role of Police in a Racist-Capitalist Society. Defunding and Dismantling the US Police Being Fiercely Debated Amid the national unrest law-enforcement has been documented committing further acts of misconduct and brutality By Abayomi Azikiwe Region: USA Global Research, June 11, 2020 Theme: Intelligence, Law and Justice, Police State & Civil Rights, Poverty & Social Inequality Since the videotaped violent murder of African AmericanGeorge Floyd in Minneapolis on May 25, there has been an upsurge in antiracist and anti-police brutality demonstrations and rebellions spanning across the United States. When Darnella Frazier, the 17-year-old woman who captured this horrendous police action on her cellphone and later posting it to social media, the debate around the role and status of police forces came to fore. Floyd’s killing represented a long legacy of systematic racist violence directed towards African Americans by law-enforcement agents and vigilantes. These deaths at the hands of police, racist organizations and individuals are often allowed to take place without any legal consequences for the perpetrators. Other high profile cases involving the shooting deaths Ahmaudof Arbery in Georgia and Breonna Taylor in Louisville, served to heighten the level of social tensions leading to a myriad of expressions which oppose the historic treatment of African Americans. One issue which has created much concern from the perspective of the U.S. ruling class is the idea of defunding or even dismantling the police. Slogans raised by demonstrators over the period since May 25 labelling police as inherently racist and brutal, are being reflected in the debates taking place throughout the corporate media.

  • WHAT IS BLM…REALLY? YOU DECIDE… the Phrase Bellum Omnium Contra Omnes Is a Latin Phrase Meaning “The War of All Against All”
    WHAT IS BLM…REALLY? YOU DECIDE… The phrase Bellum omnium contra omnes is a Latin phrase meaning “the war of all against all”. Another Latin phrase Bellum se ipsum alet means “the war will feed itself”. A third Latin phrase Bellum civile means “civil war”. Wikipedia-Bellum Now what defeats Bellum, the daemon of war? Wikipedia-Polemos Dionysos, the god of the life force, or one could say… “the breath of life” REMEMBER THIS! WHAT IS BLM…REALLY? YOU DECIDE… Have you heard of a sigil? A sigil is a seemingly meaningless symbol used in Chaos magic that is given power by its creator. There are two ways to make a sigil. One is to make a drawing that then becomes associated with a demonic entity. The other, you remove all the vowels and double letters of a given word. B E L L U M So holding BLM signs… and chanting “I can’t breathe”… Is an incantation for the daemon! WHAT IS BLM…REALLY? YOU DECIDE… So there appears to be a deeper agenda behind this movement, and the puppet masters have always used sigils and dark magik to manipulate the energy of the population to their advantage. BlackLivesMatter dot com appears to be an international money laundering scheme used by the Democrats to raise money from an international audience. WHAT IS BLM…REALLY? When you click on the “Donate” button on blacklivesmatter dot com you are sent to an “ActBlue” donations page. When you research the expenditures of ActBlue, all their contributions are directly going to top DNC campaigns.

  • Mayor Greg Fischer 527 West Jefferson Street 4Th Floor Louisville
    June 19, 2020 To: Mayor Greg Fischer President David James 527 West Jefferson Street Louisville Metro Council 4th Floor 601 W. Jefferson Street Louisville, KY 40202 Louisville, KY 40202 "The great evil of American slavery wasn't the involuntary servitude; it was the fiction that Black people aren't as good as white people, and aren't the equals of white people, and are less evolved, less human, less capable, less worthy, less deserving than white people." 1 Black community leaders and those of good conscience are working to push for answers and consequences while Mayor Fischer has yet to make a statement condemning the actions of LMPD. For far too long, our communities have operated on the principle of keeping Louisville's issues out of the public eye. The cover-up has ended. The time has come to give us the necessary resources to begin to do the work for ourselves since our elected leaders are reluctant to do what they have been sworn to do for all of our citizens. Should our concerns not be acknowledged and addressed, Louisville will continue to experience the public outrage and demand for change that it is seeing after the unnecessary and unjustified deaths of our Black residents at the hands of the LMPD. The actions of LMPD clearly demonstrated that we cannot trust them to protect and serve all of us regardless of where we live or the color of our skin. It’s difficult to imagine a more serious breach of trust than when police unnecessarily kill the people they are charged to protect.
