SPIRITUALITY IS THE ONLY THING THAT CAN SAVE HUMANITY

SPIRITUALITY IS THE ONLY THING THAT CAN SAVE HUMANITY

By Fahim A. Knight-El      

The paradigm shift has been ongoing the level of human consciousness has been somewhat stifled by those who seek to control the thinking of humanity and the resources of the planet. This shift is being guided by those who are masters at social engineering via media, entertainment, religious and political schools of thought, toxic relationships, the acquisition of materialism, pop culture, 'new ageism', sport and play, etc., (under the guise of propaganda and disinformation,). The duping allows them to shift human psychology right beneath our own eyes and we do not have a clue of why we act and behave the way that we do. The natural internal positive energy of the human being is being systematically siphoned and they have created massive dummying down ploys and distractions and deceptions to shift the universal/human energy with the intent of trying to get in front of the real paradigm shift with the objective of redirecting future human thought and evolution.

The universe is actually dictating new spiritual and a new social phenomenon and those who are attempting to pursue true enlightenment will be at an advantage to understanding and embracing the positive outcomes of this paradigm shift. There are two forces at work here--positive and negative, which is pulling at the Universe and pulling at humanity. Man has created such an imbalance on the planet in which ecological and climactic forces will continue to unleash energy that will impact human existence on the planet for thousands of years to come (i.e. hurricanes, tornadoes, droughts, mudslides, cyclones, typhoons, floods, wild fires, snow and ice storms, etc , only serve as evidence of man being  on a collision course with a power force that he cannot win--the Universal Order that governs all energy has no equal)..

Global warming isn't coincidental and the unpredictable weather patterns are not coincidental or accidental either, but are an indication of humanity’s failure to live in harmony with the Universe (President Donald J.Trump and the United States Government withdrawal from the Paris Summit was proof positive that he has placed greed and predatory capitalism over working to save and preserve the planet). The Universe will continue to speak and will see and experience things like we have never experienced before. It will be our awakening to spirituality that will allow us to decipher and visualize what will be before us, as well as be able to analyze these global events from a spiritual level, which will further allow us to understand these phenomenon’s from a much deeper level; than those who will be blinded by the deceivers, because they have chosen to wander in darkness. And will be constant victims of those who are steadily working on keeping the masses asleep and under their dictates and control. 

We are experiencing a social, political and economic paradigm shift in real time and most of this can only be interpreted on the spiritual level. Every where the evil forces have gone on the planet, it has led to mayhem and disruption of human civilizations. This could be seen in how they destroyed and decimated the Aborigines of Australia (these were jet black people and perhaps the first people on earth), the Native Americans who crossed the Bering Strait (Asia) over 16, 000 years ago into North America, also became victims of his injustice, i.e., mass murder and genocide: this injustice led to the Native Americans being almost completely wiped out and those that survived were placed on U.S. Government Reservations. 

The original people of New Zealand and Papua Papua New Guinea were also unjustly murdered and decimated; Africans over 100 million were forcibly kidnapped and brought against their will to the Americas to be made slaves and the burden bearers of a system that was built on ruthless white supremacy and racism. This was the greatest crime ever committed against the humanity. They robbed us of our God, land, names, culture, rites, sacraments, etc., and turned us into so-called American Negroes (essentially they stole our humanity'). I must tell the whole truth and we should not allow fear to stand in our way or denial when it comes to evaluating and assessing the naked truth. They were given 6,000 years to rule and their time has come to an end and are we prepared to take our rightful places?

The Bible taught us to forgive them God they know not what they do and we allowed injustice to take place and approximately 163 years later we have put up little resistance to his world order and domination. Let me also say this there is no mystery God and there is no spook God, God is real he lives in us, you and me. He created himself from an atom of light over76 trillion years ago. He placed the moon in its orbit 66 trillion years ago; he instituted the powerful Universal principles that governs our solar system. The first law of the universe is motion our planet is in constant motion and we as human beings are in motion (stagnation renders death) and our DNA make up is genetically coded to compliment the macrocosm Universe. The second law of the Universe is order. 

We should have life and life more abundantly. The Hidden Hand and the Invisible Rulers have created a universal imbalance on the planet, because of greed and a desire to horde the world's wealth and resources. This thought and behavior is diametrically opposed to the Divine Laws of the universe. Moreover, it is this conduct that has placed them on a collision course with another powerful unseen entity and force that occasionally manifest itself in the form of calamities in order to just remind the global deceivers that it doesn't matter how many carnal weapons of war that they have obtained because in the grand scheme of things when matched up with the real power they have minuscule power to determine humanity’s ultimate destiny. 

The universe is armed with something much more powerful than what we have acquired as human beings relative to the power associated with the U.S. sovereign state. The Kosmic Forces have been here since the dawn of time and when the planet was created and there are spiritual heightened people on earth who possess the power to invoke the Kosmic energy and can alter personal and global dynamics by having the ability of saying be and it is (this is the God within). Yet, we all have the ability to enter this spiritual space that was once reserved for Sages, Gurus and Master Teachers; this allows us un-precedent spiritual powers to walk in our six senses and once we master the science of the Chakras this will move us further into mastering self and it teaches us of how to give birth to a god. 

Ultimately, we are not at war with flesh and blood, but we are at war with principalities in High Places. When you seek to be spiritually free it is an act of declaration of war, because the enemies can no longer manipulate you for their benefits. This spiritual path frees you and it allows you Divine intuition to see things before they happen and tap into people's energy. These are ancient practices that the Twa people and the Dogon people of Africa had practiced and had mastered these spiritual principles thousands of years ago. The African slaves who were captured from Sierra Leone, West Africa and brought to the slave ports of Charleston, South Carolina and Beaufort, South Carolina. They practice the Gullah tradition (and extension of the Yoruba tradition) and still are in touch with our ancient ancestor’s spirits in 2018, they never relinquished their connections to the ancient spirit world. 

Now, moving right along, the Kosmic Universe is rooted in energy—the stars, solar, human behavior, animal life and all species are tied to this Intelligent Design, which dictates the very essence of bio-physics and what our interrelated position is going to be on the planet. Our Path (or the spiritual forces of the universe) is calling us and no one can answer this calling but ourselves neither of us at this point will be able to run and hide from this preordained reality, your divine purpose will find you sooner or later. 

The injustices of wealth disparities that have induced poverty and want, medical disparity, and mass incarceration and the police state initiatives, unfair wages, induced famines and global poverty has caused a Kosmic roaring that cannot be heard or even seen by the unenlightened, they really don't have clue, but these things will factor into the dispersing and dispensing of global justice. 

For example, “The Book of Secrets” was a compilation of spiritual teachers and teachings that tapped deeper into Buddhism, Hinduism, Confucius, Zoroaster, Islam and Occult Christianity. It was not labeled by religious identification as such, but the teachings in the 'Secret' assured us that there was something else in the realm of enlightenment, and spirituality awaiting the human being which was a pathway into becoming awakened (spiritual consciousness is what they have obtained). These are not steps that will be transformative overnight or just in one reading or two readings of the 'Secret'. These assembled Master Teachers were teachings the most important lessons, which was submission and surrendering our will to do the will of the Higher and Divine Forces that control the Universal Order of things. How willing are we to make these sacrifices to achieve spiritual freedom? 

This will be a continuum process that surely will have twist and turns and bumps in the road. The journey requires one step at a time and it will require study and research to learn the ancient principles of MAAT and how to apply them to acquire good homes, money and friendship in all walks of life. 

Thus, the Kosmic energy and the Universal Forces are lined up against present day man, because of planetary and human corruption. The planet was giving to us based on the scales of balance and justice. Greed created the symptoms of man's inhumanity to man and this will lead to our demise. There is a negative energy over America and the globe and it's affecting human relations and is driving us in our poor decision making processes. Some of these things are now out of control, because the universe has spoken. The Donald Trump political phenomenon is a part of this equation and his representation is the embodiment of the ‘axis evil’. 

The planet energy has been shifted and those who keep the people and the masses duped by feeding them propaganda and disinformation is the biggest part of the problem confronting the globe and the direction of the human course. Our churches and mosques are failing us, and our preachers, Rabbis and Imams don't have the knowledge nor the solutions to bring us to a true spiritual center (what they teach is failing humanity). We have to change our thinking on a personal level and realign ourselves with the good in the universe in order to impact and alter the negative energy that is guiding humanity towards the wrong direction (the spiritual solution is beyond their training and capabilities to create new minds and alter present human behavior). 

It is only a spiritual solution that will challenge and defeat the purveyors of evil, I didn't bring any of you to this space, but if you have been led to this space it was probably not coincidental that we have met in this space and at this particular time in your and my journey, but I have a duty and responsibility to guide those who are seeking enlightenment along this journey less traveled. We have to remain open to truth and knowledge, I am just a vessel and I humble myself to the forces of good in the universe. There are 66 books in the Bible and the most often mentioned word in the New Testament is Love. Now, remember this we have to love humanity more than they love themselves.

Moving right along the above mentioned artificial economic, political and social collapse have allowed them to diminish the original legal intent of the United States Constitution and turn it into a worthless piece of paper and siphoned the legality of our jurisprudence system. Thus, 43 days after the 9-11 hoax President George W. Bush and the United States Congress passed the U.S. Patriot Act, which ushered in Homeland Security. This act was put in place by the Cabal, which duped us into believing that Osama Bin-Laden, so-called militant and radical Islam and Al-Qaeda posed an eminent danger to U.S. national security. These ploys and deceptions have led us to the doorsteps of rendering the United States citizens powerless by covertly eradicating our civil liberties in the name of fighting terror and terrorism (we bought into this propaganda and disinformation). 

Our brother President Barack Obama had a mission of continuing the Bush Doctrine and carrying out the Elitist agenda thus his eight year tenure in the Oval office only assured us that he was a loyal agent and a control pawn working in the interest of the Hidden Hand, in particular when he passed the reactionary National Defense Authorization Act in 2011. This reactionary legislation covertly further stripped the United States citizens of basic legal rights that used to be guaranteed and protected by 14th Amendment to the U. S. Constitution. Our due process and equal protection under the law in reality don't exist anymore since the advent of 9-11 (they have set the stage for a complete police state that will be enforced under martial law rule). 

The 9-11 hoax was designed to slowly transition America and the Global society into a New World Order and One World Government. The economic depression and collapse in 2008 also allowed them to shift the money game by blaming the economic collapse on the masses of the people relative to irresponsible debt and consumerism (as though we peons factored into the above mentioned economic collapse). 

Yet, the Rockefellers and the Rothschilds were hiding and lurking behind the Federal Reserve System and the Bank of England; thus, manipulating world currency, devaluing global money and infused in the United States Fiat money (our money has no real value it is a worthless Federal Reserve Note). And these same entities were behind the Afghanistan War (2001) and the Iraq War (2003).

So in 1913 a silent coup took place on Jekyll Island off the coast of Georgia whereas international bankers took control over our monetary system, which amounted to private Dynastic families monopolizing our money and presently their ancestral linage is still leading the monetary game of the paradigm shift. In 1933, our government moved our currency off the Gold Standard. So our money is no longer backed by gold and silver—it became a Federal Reserve Note and agreed instrument of monetary exchange that is being utilized as real money but it has no value; this mean someone possess the power and authority to call the debt-in, because they have the entitlement to our so-called currency. 

Our leaders are low-level operatives, they are front men and women for the Hidden Hand. The wealth holders are not satisfied with hoarding 95% of the wealth, but they want to control all the wealth on the planet. We got caught up emotionally in backing one of their agents President Barack Obama, but his job was to continue where George W. Bush left off and that is exactly what he did. 

The entire system of democracy is an illusion our vote in the grand scheme of things count for nothing. The U.S. president is not elected but he is selected by the likes of the Rockefellers and powerful Elitist families. But they must keep us believing that we live under a participatory democracy this is what keeps us pacified and dim our will to revolt. We have become good Sheeple and pawns unknowing to the masses this is what humanity has been reduced to. The forces of evil will not prevail, but through psywars, the money changers and the political deceptions have led them to be diametrically opposed to all the good in the universe and they see themselves as being omnipotent and sovereign gods over humanity and the planet. 

We have to align ourselves with positive spiritual forces and tap into the Universal Forces of good in which to shift the paradigm and redirect the energy in the Universe. We all have to do this on a personal level. There is a book written by John Coleman titled, "The Committee of 300” this will give you some inkling to how diabolic these people are in their lust for power.

Freemasonry is the key to the world power, but one must have an understanding about the power apparatus by understanding those who control the world and operate out of various secret societies. There are layers of Freemasonry and often the visible outward layer that you see in your city and my city possess limited power, but there are a powerful group of Freemasons who have membership in various higher upward echelon Orders and these powerful individuals are the ones who dominate the political, economic and social systems of the world. 

They are shielded by the low-level Freemasonic Orders that we have come to know as the public face of Masonry. For example, the African American Freemasonry Order of Prince Hall founded in 1784 or the Ancient Free and Accept Masonry. Our Orders in the grand scheme of things do not factor into the real shakers and movers. Even after we have obtained the honorary and terminal degree of the Scottish Rite 33rd degree or the Royal Arch degrees; these are Front organizations. True knowledge is 360 degree and a complete circle. 

White Freemasons unlike African American Masons are structured on powerful systems of networking and is undergirded by high finance. They create generational wealth by initiating their off springs into powerful Greek college societies like the Skull and Bones at Yale and Harvard University. These powerful white men guide and prepare their off springs to be in a position to rule the world through organizations such as the Bilderberg, Trilateral Commission and the Council on Foreign Relations. Close to 25 United States Presidents have been members of Freemasonry that tells you something about interconnectedness between Masonry and the Power Brokers. 

It is Freemasonry that is guiding our democracy. Now, African American Masons those who are high degree Masons in Prince Hall often have dual membership in a more powerful group called the Black Boule (also known as Sigma Pi Phi) the most powerful Black Fraternity in the world founded in 1904. It predated the so-called Alpha Phi Alpha fraternity the first black Greek fraternity founded in 1906. The Boule encompass some of the most influential black men and black women in America. But there is a lot more to this.

My mission is to inform all people of goodwill, of the pending dangers that lie ahead; as well as decode the symbolism and reinterpreted the hidden meanings behind those who operate as invisible forces, but covertly rules the world. We are of the belief that an enlightened world will be better prepared to throw off the shackles of ignorance and not be willing participants for the slaughter. My motto is speaking truth to power.

WHO ARE WE? DISENTANGLING THE TRICKS AND LIES

WHO ARE WE? DISENTANGLING THE TRICKS AND LIES

By Fahim A. Knight-El

We have to move beyond accepting the Matrix (and decide, if we are serious about forging change; the question becomes, which pill are we going to take either the red pill or the blue pill). We cannot vacillate between a dying corrupt system and simultaneously think there are some possible good associated with this system (either we want complete sovereignty and independence—freedom, justice and equality, or we want reform, which is geared towards superficial changes, but not altering the system from its foundation. The facts of history is clear, when the Europeans arrived to the North America continent in 1607 as the first white settlers, they were the dregs, criminals and the vagabonds of Great Britain and Europe (many of them were exiled and were considered the worst-of-the worst)(Reference: Michael F. Robinson; "The Lost White Tribe: Explores, Scientist, and the Theory that Changed a Continent").

Their concept of a new nation did not include the Native Americans, so-called black people or white women, the nation was established by white aristocratic men for the eventual interest of white plantation owners with the objective of expanding the colonial expeditions of the Royal Family of England, which was an extension of imperialism and white world domination (translated in the modern context white supremacy). These new settlers were also being used by the British to expand trade markets and create new capitalist ventures (their motives were rooted in exploitive capitalism and seeking to find gold and silver in the so-called "New World" to increase British foreign worth). The British Empire was very expansive and historians maintained that the sun never set on the British Empire (Reference: John Henrik Clarke; 'Christopher Columbus and the Afrikan Holocaust: Slavery and the Rise of European Capitalism”). 

We cannot find ourselves making subtle political concessions when it comes to the European behavior nor can we overlook the overt crimes of raping and robbing indigenous people's territories and lands (committing murder and genocide) almost totally emasculating the 17 million Native Americans and enslaving over 50 million Africans in the name of greed and white world domination. The white man has a history written in blood and wherever he has gone on the planet, he has decimated the original people for the past 6,000 years and this much is undeniable (Reference: Michael Bradley; “Iceman Inheritance : Prehistoric Sources of Western Man's Racism, Sexism and Aggression”).

This history and behavior cannot be reconciled by us seeking to overlook and justifying these human transgressions by conveniently placating these crimes against humanity by being in historical denial; their behavior and wrongdoing stand to be condemned by all righteous civilized people of the earth. The United States of America is an outlaw nation and Republic, if it were not for the Native Americans who taught the first European settlers survival skills relative to agriculture and how to grow and plant food in the so-called New World they would have been doomed from the very start. Sir Walter Raleigh and other European settlers would not have survived from the beginning, if were not for the humanity demonstrated by the indigenous people.

This nation in 1776 fought the American Revolution War to declare itself free from the yoke of British rule and although, one of the first to lose his life in the American Revolution was a black man named Crispus Attucks on March 5, 1770. Thus, 114 years later they wrote African Americans into the United States Constitution as subhuman 3/5th of a human being. Blacks fought in the American Revolution on both the colonists side and on the British side and after the white 13 Colonies gained their freedom and independence from the Crown they continued to enslave blacks as chattel. They used Christian missionaries to rob the minds of the slave by imposing a slave making theology, which made the slave docile, obedient and subservient (the Willie Lynch Syndrome) (Reference: Bruce Bridges; “Recapturing the African Mind).

The first President of the United States of America George Washington was a Freemason. He was made a Mason in Fredericksburg, Virginia on November 4, 1752. And many of the so-called Founding Fathers were initiated Freemasons. So the United States Constitution within itself was a document inspired by an august body of Freemasons; the Constitution Convention was held in the city of Philadelphia where this pristine document was ratified in 1787. Thus, Philadelphia was secondly named as the city of Brotherly Love in which Freemasonry rest on three basic principles Morality, Friendship and Brotherly Love, so this is not coincidental and there is huge amounts of Masonic history and symbolism in Philadelphia. Even Prince Hall Masons under Prince Hall had organizational and religious ties to Richard Allen and Absolom Jones of the African Methodist Episcopal Church in Philadelphia. The A.M.E Church in Prince Hall early organizational development assisted him in establishing the first black Masonic Lodge African Lodge number 459, which was founded in 1784 and transitioned into African Grand Lodge number 1 but it flourished in Philadelphia due to the assistance of the A.M.E Church (Reference: Roundtree and Bessel; "Out of the Shadows: The Emergence of Prince Hall Freemasons in America'). 

I think we need to be clear the white Founding Fathers of America were very astute Statesmen because they had become exposed to the Ancient Kemetic knowledge that originated amongst the Nubian people. Some of them were exposed to the philosophical theories of the Rosecrucians traditions of Mental Alchemy. The city of Washington DC was built on philosophical and architecture or mathematical scales of Freemasonry; for a long time many Caucasian scholars would not publicly admit the tremendous influence that Freemasonry has played in the establishment of American Democracy. The buildings and the geographical physical layout of the United States Capitol is definitely correlated to ancient Kemetic (Egyptian) symbolic codes and architecture. The U.S. Capitol sits off the Potomac River—this is symbolic and representative of the Blue and White Nile River of Egypt. And the majesty and the spiritual significance this waterway had on ancient Kemetic societies (on the 28 Dynastic Periods) and how it flows upward from South to North. Moreover, even to this very day the people of Egypt and Sudan and down the river streaming to East Africa relish the Blue and White Nile River (Reference: Anthony Browder; “Egypt on the Potomac: A Guide to Decoding Egyptian Architecture and Symbolism in Washington”).

One of the most important cities also sits right across from Washington D. C. and that is the city of Alexandria, Virginia in which there is a Masonic museum and library that house Masonic artifacts. Perhaps one of greatest intellectual cities in Kemet was Alexandria which was an intellectual center that was known for its extensive libraries that was destroyed by the Greeks in 332 B.C. so Alexandria, Virginia it to is not coincidental. Also the Washington Monument is a replica of the many Obelisk that was worshipped and admonished in Kemet. The symbol was best known to be associated with Asur (Osiris) Aset (Isis) and Heru (Horus), the symbol was equalvent to the life source associated with the Kemetic Ank, which rest the myths or mythology of world Saviors being born of virgin births, death, resurrection and ascension (Reference: Anthony Browder; “Nile Valley Contributions To Civilization”). 

The ancient symbol was a Phallic symbol and the white man in Europe and the United States secretly adopted many Kemetic teachings and symbols in which they have used our knowledge to confound the blind, deaf, and dumb, which constitutes control over the masses. The Washington Mall and its physical layout is Masonic (rooted in the symbolic layout of the Square and Compass), as well as the Lincoln Memorial is all structured on Masonic numerology and symbolic codes down to the dimensions. I can remember President Barack Obama inauguration in 2008 and many so-called African Americans had traveled from near and afar to assemble on the Capitol grounds to be of witness of this historical and memorial occasion in the history of black America, in particular and America in general; but besides the emotionalism they didn't have a clue that they were standing on sacred Masonic grounds and it was not coincidental that Obama the 44 president (there is a lot science in the double fours perhaps at another time I will delve into breaking down what those numbers really mean). Benjamin Banneker the astronomist, architect, mathematician and pure scientist is attributed to laying out the specs and blueprints of Washington DC and as historians we know that the Capitol grounds are definitely scaled on Masonic code. Now, from this we can assume that Banneker had to have some Freemasonic knowledge and training. Yet, there is no verifiable proof that he was a Prince Hall Mason, but we do claim that he was a Mason and in my research and heart I believe he was a Mason (Reference: David Ovason; "The Secret Architecture of Our Nation's Capital; the Masons and the Builders of Washington, D.C.")..

George Washington and the Founding Fathers set-up a power structure based on Masonic principles, which has globally dominated this world's order as we know it. They (the so-called American Negro) still don't have a clue that the power of the world is staged in Washington D.C. and the majority of United States presidents have been Freemasons and this is where the world's oppression begin and end. On that inauguration day the invisible signs and symbols were visible and all around those that had assembled for this momentous occasion, but they could not discern them. So they didn't know that Obama had taken a higher oath and was not based on any alliance to African Americans or Caucasian Americans—we foolishly got caught up in the moment.

The Eurocentric scientist and social scientist are still trying to figure out and determine how these "Negroes" built such magnificent spiritual edifices and temples known as the pyramids that sit in the center of the earth. The architecture structures defy the laws of physics and still some 20,000 years later scientists are still baffled. White Egyptologist and anthropologist have no answers in 2018; scholars have written dissertations and authored scholarly books and done empirical research, but they are often left with more questions than answers, when it comes to their attempt to assess and evaluate the history and culture of Kemet. I personally found the answers when I begin to study the works of John Henrik Clarke, Cheikh Anta Diop, Yosef Ben Jochannan, Molefi Kete Asante, Ivan Van Sertima, John G. Jackson, Chancellor Williams, Drusilla Dunje Houston, etc., their knowledge enlightened me to the knowledge of self and brought me out of darkness and ignorance. I quickly learned that western civilization was a historical hoax and a sham designed to deceive the original man and the indigenous people of the earth of their greatness and the contributions they made to human civilization (Reference: Cheikh Anta Diop; "Civilization or Barbarism"). 

I think it was "Newsweek" about 25 years ago did a very extensive and detail investigative research article on the origin of woman/man, I believe it was titled, “Out of Africa, A Missing Link” and the article traced the origin of human civilization to Kush or Ethiopia. This is where they found the origin of woman/man and the first Homo Sapiens (and she was black/African and of Negroid origin—they named her ‘Lucy’) it was on the African continent. These mulatto imposters are occupying indigenous people's land that does not belong to them. All the Biblical Prophets were people of color according to works of Reverend Ishakamusa Barashango who authored a book titled, "God the Bible and the Black man’s Destiny" and he traces the lineages of the prophets, lands, languages, and religious customs back to one source, which was Africa. 

The Pope and the Roman Catholic Church lied when they established the Nicean Creed in 325 A.D. at the Council of Nicea, it was at this Papal Council where they decided to manipulate religious doctrine to enslave the darker people of the planet by distorting and creating a Eurocentric version of the teachings of Yeshusa Ben Yosef (Jesus, the son of Joseph). The scholar Reza Aslan who authored the book titled, "Zealot: The Life and Times of Jesus of Nazareth" makes a distinction between the prophetic Jesus and the historical Jesus (they are two different individuals). Reverend Albert Cleage in his books "The Black Messiah" and "Black Christian Nationalism" helped me to understand why it was important to redefine the ethnicity, nationality and teachings of the man known as Christ. It was equally important to me to debunk the lies and half-truths given to us by an arch-deceiver. 

The documentary, "Hidden Colors" by Tariq Nasheed I think part 4 deals with the control strategy and tactics of the Europeans using the missionaries, merchants and military as a team of destruction against humanity. They systematically used white supremacy theological teachings as one of the methods to create and insure white world domination by depicting African people as being the cursed sons and daughters of Ham. This allowed them to impose a social dynamic of inferiority on the African world, which has haunted the African world over the last 4,000 years (Reference: Sylvester Johnson; "The Myth of Ham in Nineteenth Century American Christianity: Race, Heathens and the People of God").

Moving right along, Chattel Slavery was cruel, inhumane and dehumanizing system of control and for 310 years there was no mercy shown towards the black man and black woman of America. How can we expect to be so-called Americans and patriotic (we never received our 40 acres and a mule). The Transatlantic Slave Trade ended in 1807, but the buying and selling of African people continued long after this legislation was enacted. Slavery was a declaration of war against the African world according to Dr. John Henrik Clarke and we cannot soften this tragedy nor attempt to downplay the white supremacists motive. You will never find Jews downplaying the Holocaust and not pointing out the wrongs of Germany and Adolf Hitler—this was part of their people's historical legacy and to question or disagree with their perspective you would be immediately condemned and labeled anti-Semitic (Reference: John Henrik Clarke; “Africans at the Crossroads: Notes for an African World Revolution”).

Yet, no other people on the planet has suffered and experienced what the so-called American Negro has experienced. He lost his land, God, names, language and culture and by the way we act we lost our minds. President Abraham Lincoln passed the Emancipation Proclamation in 1863, but it was the 13th Amendment to the United States Constitution that so-called freed the African slaves. However, the southern slavery dilemma, which led to the American Civil War 1861-1865, it must be noted that the South had succeeded from the Union and in reality Lincoln had no political jurisdiction over the south during this point in American history (Reference: J.A. Rogers;  “Africa's Gift to America: The Afro-American in the Making and Saving of the United States ”).

The southern white aristocratic plantation owners viewed slavery as an economic revenue system in which they were not willing to relinquish, because it was the backbone of the southern economy. Let’s be clear Lincoln also stated that if could maintain the Union and keep slavery intact that was what he would have done. The Reconstruction period was from 1865-1877; it was a twelve years period where blacks in the south gained political power. For example, P.B.S. Pinchback became Lieutenant Governor of Louisiana and for 45 days served as governor of the state of Louisiana and you had Hiram Revels and Blanche K. Bruce served in state government in Mississippi and you had Robert Smalls in South Carolina served in the legislative branch of South Carolina state government. W.E.B. Dubois in his book titled, "Black Reconstruction" and in Lerome Bennett book titled, "Before the Mayflower" wrote about how the U.S. Government betrayed the black political and economic progress during Reconstruction by removing the troops from the South and this ushered in a vicious racist system of Jim Crow and turned a positive page in American history back to the norms of overt racism, discrimination and oppression aimed at African American people (Reference: Russell L. Adams; Great Negroes Past and Present”).

There is nothing legal which showforth any proof where displaced Africans (Chattel Slaves) decided upon or were giving a choice to determine if they wanted to be an American. No, I and we are not Americans, I am one of 40-50 million victims of Americanism and I stand in honor of 100 million Africans who were kidnapped from their native lands and I am connected to the spirits and souls of my ancestors who were thrown overboard in the Atlantic Ocean. Black Law Dictionary defines what constitute being an American and also get a copy of the book titled "Slavery in the Courtroom" and also get a copy of a book titled, "The Color of Law: A Forgotten History of How Our Government Segregated America" by Richard Rothstein. I am also guilty of using the term/color “black” the use of the term “black” to identify us as indigenous or original people of the Earth which serve as an impediment to our true nationality; this imposed racial classification continue to serve as a barrier and hindrance to our legal, sovereign and lawful rights to assets (monetary and real property) seized and held in Federal Reserve Banks (but the majority of the original American land deeds have been secretly moved and held in vaults within the Bank of England in London and overseen by the insurer Lords of London) which constitute treaties that were falsely executed with the tribal indigenous Native Americans and original Blackmoors, because of these deceptive trade practices and the legal standards of the international courts and legal mandates of the United Nations—the Blackmoors would have legal and lawful rights as a respondent, but we do not have an agreed nationality to petition the Human Right Commission to attest and retain stolen wealth and treasures swindled and illegally confiscated by an outlaw people from 15^th century to 19^th century. Prophet Noble Drew Ali and the Moorish Science Temple of America had it right in many ways. The above knowledge is more valuable than anything that I have written; our collective suffering and lack of political, economic, and social progress is rooted in our quest to remain calling ourselves “black” in which this will keep us being modern slaves. You are the original Asiatics of the earth but American jurisprudence system will continue to deny you what is owed to you unless we wake up and claim our rightful nationality (Reference: Elihu N. Pleasant-Bey; “Noble Drew Ali: The Exhuming of a Nation”).

I write and teach not so much as a political exercise, but I use this knowledge to put people of African descendant and indigenous people back in their proper historical and culture spaces with an objective of leading them to reclaim a lost identity; moreover, of who they were prior to the mass destruction white supremacy has on the planet. We were made into a denationalized people and, how can we ever go forward politically, economically and socially with not knowing who we truly are. We still walk in the slave master's names and in 2018, we are still naming our children slave names (modern slaves who have been conditioned to be a good Negro). 

We relish in the European culture and continue to willingly embrace Western Civilization and Eurocentric values as the standards and models of human excellence. For example, the so-called American Negroes would prefer to take a vacation trip to Paris, Berlin, London, Rome, Athens, London, Barcelona or Madrid, Basil, Switzerland or West Germany--his/her mis-education forces them to negate and overlook taken a trip to his own continent where human civilization began in Africa. 

You can almost walk from Spain right in North Africa into the African Nation of Morocco across the Rock of Gibraltar and the Gibraltar Strait. It was these enlightened Africans known as the Moors (Muurs) in 711 A.D. In the 8th Century under Tarik Ibn Zaid that brought the Europeans out of the Dark Ages into cultural enlightenment, it would not have been a period in European history known as the Renaissance period with Michael Angelo and Leonardo Divinci, if it were not for the knowledge of the Nubian Moors (Reference: Ivan Van Sertima; “Golden Age of the Moor”). 

Black Muslims fly across the continent of Africa to make a Holy Pilgrimage to Mecca and Medina in observance of fulfilling the Fifth Pillar of Islam in order to pray with white Arabs. Black Christians fly to Jerusalem to Mount Moriah and experience the Ark of Covenant and trace the history of Yeshusa Ben Yosef (Jesus the Son of Joseph) to Bethlehem and Nazareth and allow white imposter clergy who are under the influence of the Pope and the Roman Catholic Church to feed us their 'tricknology'. 

We do not know that Christianity had its origin on the African continent in Kush (Ethiopia) where the Coptic Christians and the royal priesthood and some of the oldest Christian edifices still exist to this very day. I believe it was Queen Sheba of Ethiopia (Kush) who had a relationship with King Solomon and they had son named Menelik the First (this is part of the root of Freemasonry and Freemasonry as a school of thought and ideology could not exist without legacy and building of King Solomon's Temple) (Reference: Sterling Means; “Ethiopia: The Missing Link”). 

So how could the European Jews known as the Kazars and Ashkenazi Jews who are of Eastern European descendants deny African Fulasha Jews or Beta-Israel Jews the right to migrate to the Holy Land. This land belongs to the indigenous original people of the earth (Reference: Yosef Ben Jochannan; “We, the Black Jews: Witness to the 'White Jewish Race' Myth”). 

The money game is an illusion, the United States currency has no real value, United States monetary system got stuck up due to a silent coup d'état in 1913 on a small island off the coast of Georgia called Jekyll Island where a group of private international bankers took control over the United States money system in which 12 Central Banks that make up the Federal Reserve System and operate as a private institution outside of the United States Government owns our money and distributes the debt in which the U.S. president nor does congress possess oversight power or authority over the Federal Reserve reference the "Secrets of the Federal Reserve" by Eustace Mullins.

The Federal Reserve possess the power to value and devalue money and what we have is Fiat money that has no real value; in 1933 the United States moved its currency off the gold standard in which our money used to be backed by gold and silver, and each dollar could be redeemed with the equivalent of gold and silver, but your present day money is a just a federal reserve note and there is nothing backing the money that you call currency other than the United States rhetoric; the U.S. dollar is a worthless piece of paper and money is being printed out of thin air (Reference: William Greider; “The Secrets of the Temple”).

The Federal Reserve chairman has more power than the president, he/she determines the interest rates and just keep dumping worthless paper into the economy creating a debt based economy in which they systematically tie us to like modern day slaves to a mortgage, automobile loan, college loans, etc they further tie us to various aspects of consumer debt--we become conditioned to believe and think that my life must be tied to debt and paying bills. The white man has manipulated us under his system of Uniform Commercial Code (UCC) and he has traded us since our birth as stocks and bonds using our birth certificates and social security numbers commodity assets; right now as I write you sister this notation (there is much more to this concept to be learned). There is a concept called the Strawman, it would be worth your while to educate yourself on how to reclaim your sovereignty and established your legal identity and impose a cease and desist order from the government using your identity to rake in millions (Reference: Asaru Alim Nu Tu’ pak El-Bey; “The First World Order; the Global Paths of the Ancient Ones”).

If we were indeed Americans the United States Congress would not have to vote every 15-20 years on our so-called citizenship, perhaps in the near future they might decide to vote to nullify our so-called citizenship and revoke our 14th Amendment Right to the United States Constitution. We are one vote constantly from being considered an alien refugee in the land and so-called home of our birth. How can the Europeans who stole this country and land from the indigenous Native
HiAmericans/Blackmoors make you and I an American; thus legally only the indigenous people possess that legal authority to do so. Here is a criminal and thief that illegally enslaved ‘Africans’ as human cargo for 310 years and we accept him and his jurisprudence system as a moral compass (I don't think so). We should not fit our mouths to see ourselves as Americans (ex-slaves aren't Americans). So-called black men are killed by racist white police officers do you remember Treyvone Martin, Sandra Bland, Eric Garner, Michael Brown, Freddie Gray, Tamir Rice, Philando Castile, Walter Scott, Alton Sterling, Eric Harris, Laquan McDonald, etc (I do and I will never forget theses injustices). Were they "Americans"?

How does being American reconcile with white supremacy, racism, discrimination, unfair sentencing, prison industrial complex, white privilege, disparity in the wealth equation, health disparities, education disparities? We cannot allow ourselves to buying into the propaganda that so-called African American people are failing because we are not working hard enough; thus our collective history dictates that the American dream has been more like an American nightmare when comes to the so-called African American being presented with a fair and equal playing field (this is the basis of Donald Trump's incoherent ideology "Let's make America Great Again and "Let's take back America) we have be careful that we to are not subtly embracing some of this reactionary foolishness.

The Black Panther Party: Huey P. Newton and Bobby Seale; Lessons in Social Activism

The Black Panther Party: Huey P. Newton and Bobby Seale; Lessons in Social Activism

By Fahim A. Knight-El



The Black Panther Party for Self-Defense was founded in 1966 by Huey P. Newton and Bobby Seale in Oakland, California. One must understand that Newton and Seale was influenced by the fiery Black Nationalist spokesman Minister Malcolm X of the Nation of Islam who after his defection from the Black Muslim movement his ideological and philosophical views shifted more toward self-defense by any means necessary (Reference: Bobby Seale; Seize the Time: The Story of the Black Panther Party and Huey P. Newton). There were mass protest and demonstrations taking place throughout America and simultaneously the civil rights movement was in full swing in the 1960s—boycotts, picket lines, sit-ins and the fight for full public accommodation was being led by Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. ,who headed the Southern Christian Leadership Conference (SCLC). But it would be four students in 1960 from North Carolina Agriculture and Technical State University in Greensboro, North Carolina that integrated Woolworths Department store (who demonstrated civil disobedience). H. Rap Brown (Jamil Al-Amin) in his book titled, Die Nigger Die and Stokely Carmichael (Kwame Ture) in his book titled, Black Power both former chairman of the Student Non-Violent Coordinating Committee and honorary Black Panther Party members who explored the radical side of the civil rights movement in their approach to social justice. Carmichael often stated ‘ready for the revolution’ and H. Rap Brown coined the phrase ‘burn baby burn,’ which was the anthem for the rebellions that took place in the late 1960s almost in every major city across America.    

It would be racist police unlawful conduct and police brutality that led the Black Panther Party on the west coast coming into existence. Huey P. Newton felt that black people had the right to protect and defend themselves in their community against racist police attacks. The Black Panther Party under the leadership of Seale and Newton taught the Party members and the black community the importance of knowing their legal rights, in particular the Miranda Rights and the Second Amendment Right to the United States Constitution (the right to arm themselves) (Reference: Hugh Pearson; "The Shadow of the Panther: Huey Newton and the Price of Black Power in America"). 

The Black Panther Party started free breakfast programs, free health clinics and free education and schooling programs throughout the black community—they were extremely proactive in every phase of the political, economic and social struggles in Los Angeles, and Oakland which led to the establishment of Black Panther Party chapters throughout black America. Yet, their Black Power and paramilitary position of arm struggle drew the attention of the Federal Bureau of Investigation Director J. Edgar Hoover and the U. S. counterintelligence program known as Cointelpro. 

Hoover based on a disinformation and propaganda campaign characterized the Black Panther Party as a threat to the United States national security interest and they would suffer the long arm of U.S. Government dirty tricks and scrutiny. I do not think their​ arm resistance movement was rooted in treason or sedition nor were their political objectives geared towards overthrowing the United States Government as Hoover maintained. It was more about educating blacks of their constitutional rights as private citizens and knowing the 14th Amendment to the United States Constitution as it related to due process and equal protection under the law. They were truly black patriots who understood the Bill of Rights and stood behind the Second Amendment the right to bear arms (white militia groups have always had the same rights since the inception of the United States as a democracy and Republic). But to understand the difference one must read Robert Williams the former NAACP president of Monroe, North Carolina who authored a book titled, Negroes with Guns.

J. Edgar Hoover worked to systematically dismantle the Panther Party under the FBI counterintelligence program known as Cointelpro. Hoover stated he feared any black leader who could unify and electrify the black masses (and what he feared most was the rise of a black Messiah)—he initially thought that it was Elijah Muhammad, Martin Luther King, Jr., Stokley Carmichael, H. Rap Brown, etc.). This led to him infiltrating the Black Panther Party and other progressive black organizations by sending agent provocateurs and government snitches to cause internal conflict. The

U.S. judicial system unjustly prosecuted the Black Panther Party leadership and members in which some of them are still in prison some 40-50 years later as I write this article, defamed and character assassinated, others were assassinated and murdered by the government and some went underground in order to protect their lives and shield their identity. Hoover and the U.S. government went on a vicious campaign to destroy the Black Panther Party by killing off its leadership and most of all destroying the image of black people having the right to defend themselves. Hoover and the United States Government worked to neutralized and destabilized the organization and its leadership. Many of Black Panther leadership as I stated above were killed in arm confrontations with the police. For example, two popular Black Panther Party leaders of the Chicago chapter in 1969 Fred Hampton and Mark Clark was gunned down and murdered as they slept in their home. Other Black Panther members were falsely accused and were sentenced to long-term prison sentences such as the Panther 21 in which many of them have been in prison for over 40 years wrongfully convicted on trump up charges. 

Geronimo Ji-Jaga Pratt who after serving over 25 years was pardon and exonerated for crimes he did not commit. Also, George Jackson and the Soledad Brothers were victims of government complicity he was murdered by San Quentin prison guards on August 21, 1971 (Reference: "Blood in My Eye"). Perhaps one of the most well known Black Panther was Mutlia Shakur who still remains in prison since the 1970s and Mumia Abu Jamal, a member of the Philadelphia chapter of Black Panther Party for Self-Defense who has been on death row since the early 1980s (Reference: Mumia Abu Jamal; "Live From Death Row"). Jamil Abdullah Al-Amin (formerly H. Rap Brown) was a recent victim of the United States Government continued objectives from the 1960s to punish our black freedom fighters and black revolutionaries—the government pursuant to the new rules of law under the initiatives of Homeland Security, anti-terrorism laws and the U.S. Patriot Act in which President Donald J. Trump’s domestic and foreign policy personifies extreme reactionary fascism in which the United States has moved toward since his election to office in 2016. Let me briefly mention Assata Shukur who was not an official member of the Black Panther Party, but a member of the Black Liberation Army and the Panthers shared political views. Shakur was falsely accused of killing a New Jersey State Trooper in 1976 on the New Jersey Turnpike and was convicted of murder. She was sentenced to life in federal prison in Alderson, West Virginia where she escaped and sought political asylum in Cuba under Fidel Castro (Reference: Assata Shukur; "Assata").

Thus, conducting this research, I was taking back by Eldridge Cleaver's (minister of information) critical analysis of the United States jurisprudence system, in particular his open letter to then Governor Ronald Reagan in his book titled, “Soul on Ice” and his opposition to the police state. Cleaver's letter is equalvent to Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr., "Letter from the Birmingham Jail" relative to the question of moral and ethical principles. The Black Panther Party for Self-Defense started as a Black Nationalist organization but from an ideological perspective the Panther vacillated between Black Nationalism and Scientific Socialism (Communism)--they later would embrace the philosophy of Mao Se Tung (the Red Book) and Karl Marx (Das Capitol) in which they believed that the black struggle had to be fought from both a class and race analysis.

The Black Panther Party main objectives were laid out and disseminated in the their "Ten Point Plan"  

                                       What We Want Now!

We want freedom. We want power to determine the destiny of our Black Community.

1). We want full employment for our people.

2). We want an end to the robbery by the white men of our Black Community. (later changed to "we want an end to the robbery by the capitalists of our black and oppressed communities.")

3). We want decent housing, fit for shelter of human beings.

4). We want education for our people that exposes the true nature of this decadent American society.

5). We want education that teaches us our true history and our role in the present day society.

6). We want all Black men to be exempt from military service.

7). We want an immediate end to POLICE BRUTALITY and MURDER of Black people.

8). We want freedom for all Black men held in federal, state, county and city prisons and jails.

9). We want all Black people when brought to trial to be tried in court by a jury of their peer group or people from their Black Communities, as defined by the Constitution of the United States.

10). We want land, bread, housing, education, clothing, justice and peace.

                              What We Believe:

1). We believe that Black People will not be free until we are able to determine our own destiny.

2). We believe that the federal government is responsible and obligated to give every man employment or a guaranteed income. We believe that if the White American business men will not give full employment, the means of production should be taken from the businessmen and placed in the community so that the people of the community can organize and employ all of its people and give a high standard of living.

3). We believe that this racist government has robbed us and now we are demanding the overdue debt of forty acres and two mules. Forty acres and two mules was promised 100 years ago as redistribution for slave labor and mass murder of Black people. We will accept the payment in currency which will be distributed to our many communities: the Germans are now aiding the Jews in Israel for genocide of the Jewish people. The Germans murdered 6,000,000 Jews. The American racist has taken part in the slaughter of over 50,000,000 Black people; therefore, we feel that this is a modest demand that we make.

4). We believe that if the White landlords will not give decent housing to our Black community, then the housing and the land should be made into cooperatives so that our community, with government aid, can build and make a decent housing for its people.

5). We believe in an educational system that will give our people a knowledge of self. If a man does not have knowledge of himself and his position in society and the world, then he has little chance to relate to anything else.

6). We believe that Black people should not be forced to fight in the military service to defend a racist government that does not protect us. We will not fight and kill other people of color in the world who, like Black people, are being victimized by the White racist government of America. We will protect ourselves from the force and violence of the racist police and the racist military, by whatever means necessary.

7). We believe we can end police brutality in our Black community by organizing Black self-defense groups that are dedicated to defending our Black community from racist police oppression and brutality. The second Amendment of the Constitution of the United States gives us the right to bear arms. We therefore believe that all Black people should arm themselves for self-defense.

8). We believe that all Black people should be released from the many jails and prisons because they have not received a fair and impartial trial.

9). We believe that the courts should follow the United States Constitution so that Black people will receive fair trials. The 14th Amendment of the U.S Constitution gives a man a right to be tried by his peers. A peer is a persons from a similar economic, social, religious, geographical, environmental, historical, and racial background. To do this the court will be forced to select a jury from the Black community from which the Black defendant came. We have been, and are being tried by all-white-juries that have no understanding of “the average reasoning man” of the Black community.

10). When in the course of human events, it become necessary for one people to dissolve the political bonds which have connected them with another, and to assume among the powers of the earth, the separate and equal station to which the laws of nature and nature’s god entitle them, a decent respect to the opinions of mankind requires that they should declare the causes which impel them to separation. We hold these truths to be self-evident, and that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their creator with certain unalienable rights, that among these are life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness. That to secure these rights, governments are instituted among men, deriving their just powers from the consent of the governed, that whenever any form of government becomes destructive of these ends, it is the right of the people to alter or abolish it, and to institute new government, laying its foundation on such principles and organizing its power in such a form as to them shall seem most likely to effect their safety and happiness. Prudence, indeed, will dictate that governments long established should not be changed for light and transient causes; and accordingly all experience hath shewn, that mankind are more disposed to suffer, while evils are sufferable, than to right themselves by abolishing the forms to which they are accused. But when a long train of abuses and usurpations, pursuing invariably the same object, evinces a design to reduce them under absolute despotism, it is their right, and their duty, to throw off such government, and to provide new guards of their future security.

Some have accused the Black Panther Party for Self-Defense as being sexist and misogynist and male dominated organization, but I think women had always played a prominent role within the Black Panther Party Movement from doing vital behind the scene work relative to community organizing and being support staff for the   organization on various levels. When Huey P. Newton went to prison, the Central Committee elected Elaine Brown as chairman of the Party and it was under her work an leadership that the Free Huey campaign and movement gain a broad range of support across America and throughout the world. Also, the likes of Angela Davis who was out front and was challenging the white status quo by organizing college students and leading mass political rallies and demonstrations against police brutality and what she deemed as the police state. Eldridge Cleaver's wife Kathleen Cleaver was also highly visible as one of leading female voices in Black Panther Party movement. Yet, this analysis is in no way meant to suggest or imply that there wasn't continue internally struggles between the role women would play in this male dominated Black Power organization. Women for the most part held traditional roles as educators for children, nurses assistants, food preparers for the free breakfast program, etc. (Reference: Elaine Brown; "A Taste of Power: A Black Woman's Story").     

I think the Black Power movement gave rise in the 1960s and 1970s the need of black studies programs on mainly predominantly white universities and college campus in which students could acquire majors and minor degrees. African Americans were seeking to rediscover the history and culture of African people in which intellectual interest in black history and the African experience begin to expand. The quest for self-determination created new academic and educational challenges to a system that was structured and built on Eurocentric and white supremacy ideology. But Berkeley and the University of California system, in particular begin to create black Studies programs and hired black professors, moreover, this practice spread throughout academia (and in 2018 black studies programs are under assault). It was political agitation in 1960s that brought the necessity of Black Studies programs and it begin gaining philosophical credibility and legitimacy amongst scholars and intellectuals outside of the African-American race (Reference: Mualana Karenga; "Introduction to Black Studies").

Lastly, the Black Panther Party for Self-Defense in the 1960s and 1970s was actually confronting some of the same political, economic and social issues, we are presently confronting in 2018. For example, the issue of police brutality and the murder of innocent black men by white racist law enforcement and often these killings are deemed justifiable homicides. The judicial system and the criminal justice system still allow sentencing disparities and black men are discriminated in the legal courts of the United States of America. The lack of financial capital and resources in the so-called black community creates poverty and disillusionment due to wealth disparities (the economic and social impetus that foster the working poor), which gives way to the prison industrial complex and mass incarceration. The Black Panther Party sought to address these issues on a community level by taking ownership of the black community. The government deemed them a threat to the U.S. internal national security because they dared to exercise their Second Amendment Right to the United States Constitution. The fight for social justice has been a continued fight for African Americans since the first slave ship arrived to America in 1555. The Panthers represented the epitome of black-manhood and black-womanhood.
