"I hear evil, I see evil,
I speak of the evil. "

I’m Abena, a RE~Covering Afreekan enslaved in amerikkka and a RE~Presentative from the Voices in the Margins.

I am fed the flip up with being forced to practice and uphold European thinking and behaving in the world. f I am sick and tired of having to nurture, feed and support the European Asili. I have been rubbed RAW by white folk and they shit. YES, I said SHIT! When I do so, I am paraphrasing the primary purpose laid out by Narrative Family Theorist Epson and White (1980). They contend that family interactions, if and when problematic, result from the faulty stories they are living. They advocate an approach of “externalizing the stinky poo” (Epson & White) to support change and health in the family system.

Put in the culturally linguistic style of one living in the “margins”, who was taught to “call a spade a spade”, I say SHIT. This linguistic style is also used to convey the feeling associated with these thoughts. I am MAD as all get out and, as a former “client” of mental health services I learned well how to identify and appropriately express my feelings. I also strive to practice what I preach and teach.

I recognize that our enslavement to European culture as a process of rubbing the “black” off of us. In it’s place, is pink and white representing the blood and body that’s been dragged in such a way as to scrap off the skin….and…..

I’m R.A.W.

Ready Able Willing

To tell my Story
my way.

The TRUTH, the whole TRUTH and nothing but the TRUTH
of my EXPERIENCES, STRENGHTS AND PLANS
for RE~Covering my TRUE Cultural Story.
I am Ready, Willing and Able to do so;
with your help.
It is a story of great pain and shame.
It is also a story filled with triumph,
laughter and GROWTH.

Pro Black does not mean anti white and because you are pro black does not mean your racist!!!
WE have to have a full understanding of what RACISM is before we throw the word around. Racism is not discrimination or prejudice based on race. Racism contains discrimination.. and prejudice.. as practical elements.. but Discrimination is discrimination and prejudice is prejudice. Racism is a system of control enacted by people in power for the purpose of maintaining their dominance over people with no power. Racism is a deliberate and organized system of maintaining dominance.. and its codified in law and in cultural practices.. Its not words.. or speech.. or thoughts.. its action. And without dominance, you cannot exercise a system of racism. YES I DO BELIEVE BLACK PEOPLE CAN NOT BE RACIST.NOT IN THE PAST NOT IN THE PRESENT NOT IN THE FUTURE!!!

WHITE power was enforcing white supremacy, encouraging separatism to maintain dominance. Black power was emphasizing racial pride and the creation of black political and cultural institutions to nurture and promote black collective interests and advance black values. "Black Power" expresses a range of political goals, from defense against racial oppression, to the establishment of social institutions and a self-sufficient economy. White power was racial while Black power was political!!!
