History of the Black Holocaust
If history teaches us one thing its that our-story is different fromhistory and we only find out the truth long after that information is of
any use in dealing with our current reality, unless of course, we gethip to their pattern of deception and out-right lying.
Consequently, we look at all news and data to find out wuzup. TheKatrina deadly episode screams for us to learn and prepare as theyaccelerate their genocidal progams.
Who are these people, where do they come from and how can theydo the things they do and have done with no shame, no humanism?Our-Story cant totally be reviewed here, instead we must alwayskeep in mind who these people are and what they have done and notwho we just want em to be, seen? Lets reach to Afrikan wisdom tosupply some perspective on our enemy.
Talking about our yesterday that has been hidden from us, Cheikh
Anta Diop put it this way:
When we talk of racism in antiquity, it is important to
understand that racism as we know it, could not have
been expressed in the same way vis-a-vis Blacks, for
the simple reason that it was Blacks who had
monopolized technical, cultural and industrial know-
how. The other races had to pattern their technological,
cultural and religious developments after theaccomplishments of Egyptian technology, science
culture and arts. The Greeks were forced to come
humbly and drink at the fountain of Egyptian culture...
It was to Egypt that all of the Greek scientists of the
Helena's period came in search of knowledge. Hence,
racism in the modern sense of the word could not have
been exercised by whites against Blacks in the sameway during antiquity.
Our illustrous Afrikan historian Dr. Josef ben-Jochannon had this to
say in his classic work Blackman of the Nile and his Family:

The Black man (indigenous Afrikan and his
descendants) must once more write about himself, his
culture, and his continent (Alkebulan, Afrika, Ethiopia,
Libya, etc.); for no one cares about another's history.
Moreover, when a man's history is written by hisenslavers or captors, regardless of his master's religion
or economic philosophy, such a history is always
distorted to suit the master-slave relationship; which
is the only possible result from such an enforced union.
In the Philosophy and Opinions of Marcus Garvey he explains
education in a new light, one that would disarm the Culture Banditsand place them exposed naked before you:
You can be educated in soul, vision and feeling, as
well as in the mind. To see your enemy and know him
is a part of the complete education of man; to
spiritually regulate one's self is another form of the
higher education that fits man for a nobler place in
life, and still, to approach your brother by the feeling
of your own humanity, is an education that softens
the ills of the world and makes us kind indeed.
Dr. Francis Cress Welsing, in her Cress Theory of Color
Confrontation,travels through the white psychic with a laser focus
on answering the question of the ages. Why are these people so
barbaric toward the 90% of the population of this earth who are termed
people of color? She concludes that their fear of genetic annihilation
leads them to enact a very paranoid love/hate relationship with Afrikan
people. She views their castrations of Black men, over-protection of
the white female, tanning of skin to achieve color while risking skin
cancer, as just a few of the symptoms dripping like a pusy sore onhue-manity. She writes:
Psychiatrists and other behavioral scientists frequently
use the patterns of overt behavior towards others as
an indication of what is felt fundamentally about self.

If hate and lack of respect are outwardly manifested
towards others, hate and lack of respect are most often
found at deeper level toward the self.
On this our Elder Neely Fuller writes in his Textbook for Victims ofWhite Supremacy:
Most white people hate Black people. The reason that
most white people hate Black people is because whites
are not Black people. If you know this about white
people, you need to know little else. If you do not
know this about white people, virtually all else thatyou know about them will only confuse you.
If you think that is bad, those who hated themselves put in work to
make us hate ourselves. Their methods of brainwashing and the use
of anti-Afrikan propaganda were the work of Amerikkkan Nigger
Factories, which were executed by its two components education
and the mass media. Add a heavy dose of TERROR (lynchings, policebrutality, privatized prisons etc.) as the knock out punch and its all a
cocktail for genocide. Malcolm X taught us that:
You know that we have been a people who hated our
Afrikan characteristics. We hated our heads, we hated
the shape of our nose, we wanted one of those long
dog-like noses, you know; we hated the color of our
skin, hated the blood of Afrika that was in our veins.
And in hating our features and our skin and our blood,
why, we had to end up hating ourselves. And we hated
ourselves!
Our color became to us a chain - we felt that it washolding us back. Our color became to us like a prison
which we felt was keeping us confined, not letting us
go this way or that way. We felt that all of these
restrictions were based solely upon our color, and the
psychological reaction to that would be that as long

as we felt imprisoned or chained or trapped by Black
skin, Black features and Black blood, that skin and
those features and that blood holding us back
automatically had to become hateful to us. And it
became hateful to us."
Ill give the last word to Samuel F. Yette. In 1971, in his ground
breaking work The Choice, he offered this to clarify Amerikkkas
intent. Take heed:
Genocide is a political decision. It can be made by a
town, city, state, nation or group of nations. It is apolitical decision... We cannot let those patterns, which
have been applied so successfully around the world
and which are already in motion in this country be
carried out to their logical ultimate conclusion. These
pattern must be halted now.
And we must be the ones to do it. We cannot expecthelp from anyone but ourselves... This is not a problem
of civil rights - it is a problem of Black survival. The
concept of civil rights is pitifully insignificant when
our very lives are at stake.
It is time to put childish political immaturity aside. The table should
now be set to study the impact of Katrina, the governments inaction
and slow reaction. The historical importance of it and its genocidal
implications.
Was Katrina a man made weather-war attack or was it just an
opportunity used to kill and drive out Black and poor people? After
this study make up your mind, but it may require further research.

Genocide in 1927, Genocide in 2005
Our-Story teaches us everything we need to know about our enemies
and their hatred of us, which leds to our victimization at every turn.
Lets review the great flood of the Mississippi Delta in 1927. Theseare the official figures on the books supplied by Pete Danails, the
world expert on the flood.
The human and geographical extent of the 1927 Mississippi River
Flood speaks for itself:
16.5 million acres flooded in seven states
637,000 people dislocated
$102 million in crop losses
162,000 homes flooded
41,000 buildings destroyed
6,000 boats used in rescue
250 to 500deaths.
At some points the flooded area measuredover eighty miles from
east to west. It is important to note that other experts and witnesses
challenge the official version and said thousands lost their live and
almost everyone lost everything they owned. More than 50% of our
people left the Delta forever citing the flood as the last straw in their
segregated reality.
They didnt even bother to count the Black dead and many cases
never gave their people a chance to identify them and claim their
bodies. Pete Daniel had this to add:
In 1927 Southern life was segregated, so there were
problems along the color line.The NAACP and otherblack leaders charged that planters were holding their
workers in peonage (debt servitude), for the National
Guard patrolled the camps and in some cases would
not allow workers to leave without permission from

the planters from whom they worked.Hoover
appointed a "Colored Advisory Commission," headed
by Robert R. Moton, the president of Tuskegee
Institute, to investigatecomplaints about peonage and
discrimination.Commission members visited manyof the camps and found peonage and discrimination
in the facilities provided for African Americans.
Racist whites had us on lock and we couldnt move. Meanwhile, the
National Guard was used as the military was used in Katrina and
2005 to oppress, to control and maybe even kill. The water was every
where he went on:
It couldn't go to New Orleans, panicky city fathers
told the Army Corps of Engineers; it would devastate
the regional economy.
To save New Orleans, the leaders proposed a radical plan. South of
the city, the population was mostly rural and poor. The leadersappealed to the federal government to essentially sacrifice those
parishes by blowing up an earthen levee and diverting the water to
marshland. They promised restitution to people who would lose their
homes. Government officials, including Commerce Secretary Herbert
Hoover, signed off.
[ Holocaust ]
On April 29, the levee at Caernarvon, 13 miles south of New Orleans,
succumbed to 39 tons of dynamite. The river rushed through at
250,000 cubic feet per second. New Orleans was saved, but the misery
of the flooded parishes had only started. The city fathers took years
to make good on their promises, and very few residents ever saw any
compensation at all.
[ Black Holocaust ]
The suffering and dying was a horror delivered by greedy businessmen
who cashed in on our peoples pain. We wandered outta the

Mississippi Delta with no place to go but anywhere was better than
there. Fast forward to 2005 and listen to an eyewitness account of
the events that were not Katrina but the white man at work.
Joe Edwards, Jr. told ABC News that:
I heard something go BOOM!!... My house broke in
half. My mother's house just disintegrated. It was a
brick house. All the houses down there floated down
the street like somebody's guiding 'em...
When the reporter attempted to put words in his mouth Edwards stoodfirm:
I know this happened, they blew it!
Another witness and participant in the Katrina carnage is Jordan
Flaherty and on Friday, September 2, 2005 at 4:03 PM he entered
his observation in a written record and called it Notes From Inside
New Orleans.
If anyone wants to examine the attitude of federal
and state officials towards the victims of hurricane
Katrina, I advise you to visit one of the refugee camps.
In the refugee camp I just left, on the I-10 freeway
near Causeway, thousands of people (at least 90%
black and poor) stood and squatted in mud and trashbehind metal barricades, under an unforgiving sun,
with heavily armed soldiers standing guard over them.
When a bus would come through, it would stop at a
random spot, state police would open a gap in one of
the barricades, and people would rush for the bus, with
no information given about where the bus was going.
Flaherty described how they were treated and told that once they
were on a bus with a destination they would not be allowed off, even
if they had relatives in the town they were passing thru.

has been several high profile police killings of unarmed youth,
including the murder of Jenard Thomas, which has inspired ongoing
weekly protests for several months.
Obviously, the high illiteracy rate (50%), Louisianas pitifuleducational system and low teacher salary has brewed a gumbo of
despair and hopelessness. He points out that:
Far too many young black men from New Orleans
end up enslaved in Angola Prison, a former slave
plantation where inmates still do manual farm labor,
and over 90% of inmates eventually die in the prison.It is a city where industry has left, and most remaining
jobs are are low-paying, transient, insecure jobs in
the service economy.
Race has always been the undercurrent of Louisiana politics. This
disaster is one that was constructed out of racism, neglect and
incompetence. Hurricane Katrina was the inevitable spark ignitingthe gasoline of cruelty and corruption. From neighborhoods that left
most at risk, to the treatment of the refugees, to the the media portrayal
of the victims, this disaster is shaped by race.
The rich fled New Orleans and those with no way to get out and no
where to go were locked in a struggle of life and death while the city,
state and federal government sat on their hands and let them suffer
and die. The New Orleans survivor goes on:
Adding salt to the wound, the local and national media
have spent the last week demonizing those left behind.
As someone that loves New Orleans and the people
in it, this is the part of this tragedy that hurts me themost, and it hurts me deeply.
No sane person should classify someone who takes
food from indefinitely closed stores in a desperate,
starving city as a "looter," but that's just what the

media did over and over again. Sheriffs and politicians
talked of having troops protect stores instead of
perform rescue operations. Images of New Orleans'
hurricane-ravaged population were transformed into
black, out-of-control, criminals. As if taking a stereofrom a store that will clearly be insured against loss
is a greater crime than the governmental neglect and
incompetence that did billions of dollars of damage
and destroyed a city. This media focus is a tactic, just
as the eighties focus on "welfare queens" and "super-
predators" obscured the simultaneous and much larger
crimes of the Savings and Loan scams and masslayoffs, the hyper-exploited people of New Orleans
are being used as a scapegoat to cover up much larger
crimes.
The echo of the words of Samuel Yette will bounce around until we
take heed and act in our own behalf:
Genocide is a political decision. It can be made by a
town, city, state, nation or group of nations. It is a
political discussion... This is not a problem of civil
rights - it is a problem of Black survival. The concept
of civil rights is pitifully insignificant when our very
lives are at stake.
