"RECOGNIZE AS ONE FOR ASCENDANCE AS ONE!"
by Khalil Somadi

If you look at the history of white supremacists in this country and how they have gone about maintaining their dominance over organized People of Color (POC) who insist that civil rights be acknowledged and upheld, the tactics of the supremacists have always come down to the same modus operandi:
Psychological Warfare. Divide and Conquer.
Psychological warfare is even more effectively destructive than physical warfare, much in the same sense that decapitation is more decisively destructive than a brain tumor!
Psychological warfare uses Us to defeat Us.

We have seen where this has happened time and again when it's Us against Them.
And it is Always Us against Them!
We must therefore profoundly grasp the essential importance of governing our own minds.
Our minds have always been the individual and the collective asset  most coveted by our oppressors, because control of our minds ultimately assures control of our actions, our dispositions, our resources, our convictions, even our children!

I strongly urge you to keep looking. Keep learning. Keep seeing what is intended for us by our oppressors, so that we can see clearly those paths that enable our freedom. That is the most powerful weapon we have against the psychological warfare waged against Us in this United States of America...not allowing our oppressor to pit Us one against the other.

Let me be clear, my message here  is not one of hate. Hate is the product of fear, and fear fuels mindlessness.
The message here is MINDFULNESS. Knowing the successes and the failures of our Past as a People, so that our Present is better illuminated, and our Future is more intelligently secured.
