American
Indians, or rather the Native Americans, had been living on their land
long before white men set foot on the soil. When the Europeans came,
there were probably 10 million Indians north of present-day Mexico and
they had been living there for an estimated 20,000 – 30,000 years,
arriving by land and sea during the ice age. It is believed that
the Indians originated in Asia, though few if any of them came from
India. The name “Indian” was first applied to them by Christopher
Columbus, who thought that the mainland and islands of America were part
of the Indies, in Asia.
When the Europeans started to arrive in
the 16th- and 17th-century, they were met enthusiastically by Native
Americans. The Natives regarded their white-complexioned visitors as
something of a marvel, not only for their outlandish dress and beards
and winged ships but even more for their wonderful technology – steel
knives and swords, cannons, mirrors, earrings, copper and brass kettles,
and so on. Conflicts eventually arose. The Europeans seemed
oblivious to the rhythms and spirit of nature. The Indians detected that
nature to the Europeans was something of an obstacle, even an enemy. It
was also a commodity: A forest was so many board feet of timber, a
beaver colony so many pelts, a herd of buffalo so many robes and
tongues. Even the Indians themselves were a resource – souls ripe for
the Jesuit, Dominican, or Puritan plucking.
It was the Europeans’
cultural arrogance, together with their materialistic view of the land
and its animals and plants, which the Indians found repellent. The
Europeans brought with them not only a desire and will to conquer the
new continent for all its material richness, but they also brought with
them diseases that hit the Indians hard. Conflicts developed between the
Native Americans and the Invaders, the latter arriving in overwhelming
numbers, as many “as the stars in heaven”. The Europeans were accustomed
to owning land and laid claim to it while they considered the Indians
to be nomads with no interest in claiming land ownership. The conflicts
led to the Indian Wars, the Indian Removal Act empowered by president
Andrew Jackson in 1830 and other acts instituted by the Europeans in
order to accomplish their objectives, as they viewed them at the time.
In these wars the Indian tribes were at a great disadvantage because of
their modest numbers, nomadic life, lack of advanced weapons, and
unwillingness to cooperate, even in their own defence.
The Trail
of Tears is a typical story of how the white-man settled these new lands
with little or no regard for the original inhabitants. It is a tragic
tale of force winning over decency and power winning over justice. While
the focus today remains on the route travelled and the journey itself,
for eight years prior to the event Cherokee were confronted with their
future on a daily basis. Illegal stockades called ‘removal forts’ were
built on Cherokee land, for the sole purpose of housing Cherokee people
before their forced removal from their land on a journey known as “The
Trail of Tears.” There was little the Cherokee could do in their
own defence. They tried fighting through the white mans’ court system,
with little success. Even when the Court ruled that Georgia could not
extend its laws on a sovereign nation such as the Cherokee, removals
still continued.
Settlers were greatly divided on the issue of
removal. Families that had lived in the Nation before the Georgia Gold
Rush tended to be more supportive of the Cherokee. One reason for the
strong bond was the acceptance of them by the tribe. White settlers were
easily accepted into Cherokee society. The reverse was not true. In
general, Georgians viewed the Cherokee as not much higher on the social
level than slaves. Another reason that settlers were greatly divided was
the support Cherokee had given struggling early settlers in their time
of need. Some settlers would taunt the Cherokee, telling them the
forts were to be their new home. With great concern, Principal Chief
John Ross and Whitepath, among others, journeyed to Washington to meet
with Jackson. Jackson hypocritically told them “You shall remain in your
ancient land as long as grass grows and water runs.” In early 1835,
work began on road improvements to move the Cherokee to the starting
point for their removal.
The
first Cherokee round-up started in May 1838. Some Cherokee reported to
the forts, not knowing the fate that awaited them, simply because John
Ross had told them this is what they should do. Others stayed and were
working in the fields when the soldiers came. The Georgia Guard had
identified Cherokee homes. Aided by troops from Alabama, Florida, North
and South Carolina, and Tennessee, Georgia militia would typically
approach a home and enter the house. The resident(s) would then be
forced to leave. The amount of time given residents to collect
belongings varied greatly. Some were forced to leave immediately while
others had enough time to sell valuables to local settlers at bargain
rates. There are numerous instances where settlers attempted to
intervene when the Guard was being particularly rough on a family.
Conditions
at the forts were horrible. Food intended for the tribe was sold to
locals. What little the Cherokee had brought with them was stolen and
sold. Living areas were filled with excrement. Birth rates among the
Cherokee dropped to near zero during the months of captivity. Cherokee
women and children were abused.
For a number of reasons nothing
seemed to go right during the removal. The round up that began in
mid-May was completed on June 2, 1838. Some Cherokee were forced to live
in these conditions for up to five months before the start on the
journey whose name is “Nunna daul Tsuny (Trail Where They Cried)” where
they were relocated to unproductive wasteland. 4,000 Cherokee deaths are
attributed to the removal, with one third considered a direct result of
the conditions in the prisons. Unfortunately, many of the Cherokee
Removal Forts are unmarked and lost to time. This is a typical,
tragic story of invaders abusing the land and the native people all in
the name of expansion, growth and progress.
Genographic Project DNA Results Reveal Details of Puerto Rican History
Let’s go back 520 years ago to the year 1494 on the island of Vieques, off the southeast coast of Puerto Rico’s mainland. Tainos,
the largest indigenous Caribbean population, were living a life based
on the cultivation of root crops and fishing when upon the shores
arrived Columbus and his fleet, having crossed the Atlantic Ocean for
the second time in as many years. At that point in time everything
changed. What’s written on paper has told us much about
what happened next. What’s written in the DNA of today’s Puerto Ricans
can tell us some more.
(Photo by B. Anthony Stewart/National Geographic Creative) National Geographic’s Genographic Project
researches locations where different groups historically intermixed to
create a modern day melting pot. Collaborating with 326 individuals from
southeastern Puerto Rico and Vieques, the Genographic Project conducted
the first genetic testing in the area with the goal to gain more
information about their ancient past and learn how their DNA fits into
the human family tree. The results, just published in the American
Journal of Physical Anthropology, paint a picture of vast historic
complexity dating back some 5,000 years, to the first Caribbean peoples. Our
Genographic team learned some key pieces of information that helped us
gain more insight into the peopling of the Caribbean. Most surprisingly,
we found that roughly 60% of Puerto Ricans carry maternal lineages of
Native American origin. Native American ancestry, higher than nearly any
other Caribbean island, originated from groups migrating to Puerto Rico
from both South and Central America. Analysis of the Y Chromosome DNA
found that no Puerto Rican men (0%) carried indigenous paternal
lineages, while more than 80% were West Eurasian (or European).
This
leads us to conclude that the Y chromosomes (inherited strictly
paternally) of Tainos were completely lost in Puerto Rico, whereas the
mitochondrial DNA (inherited strictly maternally) survived long and
well. This stark difference has been seen in other former colonies
(Brazil, Cuba, Jamaica), but the gender dichotomy appears strongest in
the Spanish-speaking Americas. A look into the rest of the Puerto Rican
genome using the Genographic Project’s custom genotyping tool, the
GenoChip, sheds some light on what may have happened during Spanish
colonial times to create this ancestral imbalance.
The average
Puerto Rican individual carries 12% Native American, 65% West Eurasian
(Mediterranean, Northern European and/or Middle Eastern) and 20%
Sub-Saharan African DNA. To help explain these frequencies in light of
the maternal and paternal differences, I used basic math and inferred
that it would take at least three distinct migrations of hundreds of
European men each (and practically no European women) to Puerto Rico,
followed by intermixing with indigenous women. It also would necessitate
the complete decimation of indigenous men (but not women), to account
for those numbers. These results are surprising and also shed light into
a dark colonial past that, until now, had remained somewhat unclear.

types of analyses, not just across the Caribbean or the world, but
across a specific population’s DNA, can have strong historical
implications and at the same time help paint a new picture of world
history. Learn more about how DNA can inform you about your own personal

The first thing that I have to say is that
I am an African American living in the Minneapolis area. I have to
state this now; otherwise, I would probably be called a racist.
Most people think that Black Lives Matter
is a grass-roots, black created, black run organization dedicated to
fighting racism. It most certainly is not. The Black Lives Matter
movement is the creation of a group of a few very wealthy individuals,
non-profit corporations, and the corporate media (incidentally, 90% of
the U.S. media is controlled by only six corporations).
On the official Black Lives Matter website, BlackLivesMatter.com https://blacklivesmatter.com/ it
states that Black Lives Matter is a global network foundation that is
active in the U.S., The U.K., and Canada. A global network!
It’s funded by billionaires George Soros
(Open Society Foundation), Rob McKay (Taco Bell heir), the Ford
Foundation, the Borealis Philanthropy, the Democracy Alliance, and many
others.
Not exactly what I would call a black run
grass-roots organization. If these facts alone don’t cause you to
rethink the whole Black Lives Matter thing, then you just aren’t paying
attention. (Check out the links below)
Black Lives Matter began in 2013 when the
corporate state-friendly media suddenly started focusing attention on
what they portrayed as the rise of unjustified, racially motivated
killings of African American men by white police officers. That’s the
way that the media portrayed it, but the facts say otherwise.
Are police shootings of African American
men on the rise? No, they are not. In fact, they are on the decline.
According to the Juvenile and Criminal Justice Report, the rate of
police killings of African Americans has fallen by 70% over the last
40-50 years.
see video below as a example
Are white racist police the biggest
murderers of African Americans? No. The Black Lives Matter/media cabal
is demonizing the police and portraying them as our number one foe but
the facts once again say otherwise. According to the FBI Uniform Crime
Report, 2,925 African Americans were murdered in 2018. 89% of them
(2,600) were murdered by other African Americans. That same year 209
African Americans (7%) were killed by the police (justified or
otherwise).
So let’s do the math here. 2,600 African
Americans killed by other African Americans and 209 killed by the
police. So African Americans are mostly responsible for killing African
Americans. But who does the media put all of their focus on, the ‘white
racist’ police?
So here is the big question, seeing that
these are the clear facts why is the media twisting the truth? Why are
they pushing the false narrative that racism is rampant, Why are they
spreading this lie that racially motivated police shootings are up?
Why are they spreading this lie worldwide
causing racial divisions, protest, rioting, looting, burning,
destruction and death? This global cabal has a secret agenda and African
Americans are just being used as pawns in their worldwide game.
This media produced false narrative
reached its pinnacle with the death of George Floyd. The media has
practically deified him. He’s in nationwide TV commercials, online ads,
public service announcements, he’s on billboards, and we are talking
millions of dollars in advertising. Who’s paying for this?
His image is graphitised on buildings,
businesses and walls from coast to coast, he’s on national magazine
covers, and this list goes on and on. Hundreds attended his memorial
service and funeral which included Al Sharpton, the Governor of
Minnesota, the mayor of Minneapolis, and many big-name celebrities.
Jewish supporters of Black Lives Matter movement in New York
So who is this George Floyd? Is he some
great civil rights leader like Martin Luther King or Nelson Mandela? No,
he was a violent career criminal with a long criminal record.
George Floyd was released from prison in
Houston Texas in 2014 following an arrest for aggravated robbery. He had
been in jail at least five other times.
His arrest record included theft, drug
possession, and criminal trespass. He was also the leader of a home
invasion ring. They entered a woman’s home and Floyd threatened to kill
her by pointing a gun at her stomach while they ransacked the place
looking for drugs and money. (Check out the link to his criminal
record). https://greatgameindia.com/george-floyd-criminal/
This is the one that the Black Lives Matter/media cabal is using as their international poster boy.
On May 20th 2020 Floyd was arrested again
for trying to pass a counterfeit $20 bill at a Minneapolis grocery
store. This was the event that supposedly set off this insane worldwide
media storm.
As we know, Floyd died while in police
custody and the four officers involved were all immediately fired and
charged with murder and aiding and abetting murder. This was done before
any investigation has been done, and before the cause of death was even
established.
The main officer involved, Derrick Chauvin
was immediately tried, convicted, and hung. Not by a jury, but by the
media. The media has so thoroughly convicted him that it is considered
blasphemy of the highest order to even hint that he should be
considered, ‘innocent until proven guilty’. The media has proclaimed it
murder. Case closed!
Well once again I hate to spoil the show
by introducing more facts into this media circus of lies, but here it
goes. According to the official Hennepin County Medical Examiner, George
Floyd did not die from traumatic asphyxia or strangulation.
The report stated that he died from a
heart attack and the heart attack was a result of several factors. He
had the narcotic Fentanyl in his system, which is 50 times more potent
than heroin and the same drug that killed Prince, and he also had
methamphetamines in his system.
He also suffered from severe
arteriosclerotic heart disease and hypertension. All of that combined
with his struggle with the police as they tried to subdue him is what
caused him to go into cardiopulmonary arrest.
Not just the fact that officer Chauvin had
his knee on his neck. George Floyd received emergency medical care in
the field, but he could not be resuscitated. Does that sound like murder
to you? Read the report for yourself. Two autopsies both find George Floyd died by homicide, but ...
Also, the knee on the neck (neck
restraint) manoeuvre was not something that the Minneapolis police
reserved for use only on black people. They have used it over 200 times
since 2015 on anyone they needed to subdue of all colours, white, black,
brown, or whatever, and no one has ever died from it.
So why are the Black Lives Matter Network /
media cabal screaming at the top of their lungs that this was a
racially motivated murder!
The Black Lives Matter Network / media
cabal is not what it makes itself out to be. It is a wolf in sheep’s
clothing. They pretend to be the liberal friends of African Americans,
but in reality, they are their mortal enemies. The policies that they so
aggressively push cause nothing but more damage to the African American
community.
Under the guise of eliminating racism,
they push a policy to Defund the Police. This is right on the front of
the Black Lives Matter website.
Under the guise of eliminating racism,
they push for the decriminalization of drugs offenses, and the immediate
pardon of all drug offenses with reparations paid to those convicted of
drug offenses.
So sum this up. In the African American
community where there is the highest crime rate and the biggest problems
with drug abuse, they push to release the inmates from prison and put
them back on the streets, let drug use and drug dealing run wild and
then take away the police.
What do you think the outcome of these
policies will produce? More crime and drug abuse in the African American
community. Policies that promote more crime and drug abuse in the black
community are what I call anti-black policies. These guys make the Ku
Klux Klan look like angels by comparison.
The liberal media cabal (news, TV, movies,
music, publications) who now are pretending to care so much about
racism and black people have for decades pushed ideas that are very
damaging to the African American community.
They have promoted criminal sensibilities,
thug life, promiscuity, and immorality to the African American
community by way of their promotion of the worst aspects of rap/hip-hop
culture. They’ve been actively promoting the very things that feed our
problems. Like feeding poison to a sick man.
Here is a very timely quote from Malcolm
X: ‘The worst enemy that the Negro have is this white man that runs
around here drooling at the mouth professing to love Negros and calling
himself a liberal, and it is following these white liberals that have
perpetuated problems that Negros have. If the Negro wasn’t taken,
tricked or deceived by the white liberal, then Negros would get together
and solve our own problems.’
What we are seeing happening in the world
right now under the guise of eliminating racism, the destabilization of
society, the protest, rioting, looting, burning, and killing are not
spontaneous, grass-roots events. It’s all thoroughly coordinated by
those at the top of the Black Lives Matter / medial cabal.
They are indeed the enemy of African
Americans, but they are actually the enemy of us all. African Americans
are just being used as cannon fodder in their game of global domination.

This is a question that has puzzled me for many decades. Aside from what we were taught in public schools from a secular worldview, I still wondered if there was more to this mystery as to why God allowed this to happen from a Biblical Worldview. So I turned to the Holy Scriptures for clues. Let's begin with the nation of Israel and their history briefly as a paradigm/template.
Why did God send the Israelites into captivity?
God sent the Israelites into captivity because they disobeyed the
Lord and served other gods. Through this discipline, the Jewish nation
learned to only worship God. Likewise, God may punish us for our sins,
but it is always a call to repent and return to Him.
Disobedient to the commandments
The Lord saved the Israelites from captivity in Egypt and brought
them to the promised land. Before they entered the land, God gave them
His commandments. This was accompanied by a solemn warning. If they
obeyed the commandments, the Lord would richly bless them. But if they would be disobedient, God’s curse would fall on them. Part of the curse is “the LORD will bring you and your king whom you set over you to a nation that neither you nor your fathers have known” (Deuteronomy 28:36). After the Israelites entered into the promised land, they did not
obey God as they should. For a few centuries there was no king. ‘Everyone did what was right in his own eyes’ (Judges 21:25), instead of seeking the will of God. After that, God gave kings to Israel,
but many of them did not serve the Lord. Idolatry was rampant. God sent
prophets, but most often the people did not repent and return to Him.
The depth of depravity was reached during the reign of king Manasseh. He
erected altars to false gods, sacrificed his own sons in the fire and put an idol in the temple in Jerusalem (see 2 Kings 21:3-7).
Captivity of the Israelites
So finally, God did what He had said even before the Israelites were
in Israel: they were taken captive and led to another country, Babylon.
This happened in three waves. In 605 BC, the Babylonians first gained
power in Judah (see 2 Kings 24:1).
Nebuchadnezzar besieged Jerusalem, captured it, and took some of the
most important people, among whom Daniel, captive to Babylon (see Daniel 1:1-7). The second wave happened after Judah rebelled against the
Babylonians. In 597 BC, Jerusalem was conquered a second time by the
army of Nebuchadnezzar. This time over 10,000 men were taken as captives
to Babylon: officials, soldiers, and craftsmen (see 2 Kings 24:10-17). The third wave happened in the year 586 BC, after another Judean
rebellion was crushed by Nebuchadnezzar. This time he set fire to the
city, and destroyed the temple. The remaining Judeans were taken into
exile to Babylon (see 2 Kings 25:1-21).
Prophecy of Jeremiah
Between the second and the third wave, Jeremiah prophesied that the total time of captivity would be 70 years (Jeremiah 29:10).
On the one hand, this emphasized how serious the sin of Israel was.
They would not be saved after a few years, as they expected. On the
other hand, it showed God’s grace. For He promised to not forget them,
but to save them in the end. And He did. The Persians took over the
Babylonian Empire, and released the Jews. As Jeremiah had prophesied, 70
years after the first captivity, the first returnees arrived in Israel. The captivity for once and for all cured the Jews of their sin of
idolatry. Never again would they bow before other gods. The hard
punishment that the Lord gave them for forsaking Him, resulted in their
repentance. Note: During their exiles to these foreign lands they were subjugated to slavery.
THE YORUBA AFRICANS & BLACK LIVES MATTER. A BLACK RACE OF WITCHES AND WIZARDS.
Voodoo a derivative of Yoruba originated many years ago in Africa. It comprises many sectors including medicine and religion. Voodoo and the Yoruba religion is alike in many aspects. There are many gods in both religions each controlling different things. Each god is from a different region of Africa. However, it was not until the time of the Trans Atlantic Slave Trade that voodoo itself evolved from the pagan Yoruba religion of Africa. Voodoo is mingled and has many modified practices from different tribes from Africa. Even though it is one of the world's oldest religions, it is viewed as barbaric, primitive, and sexually licentious. Thus the Yoruba religion, upon which much of voodoo is based on has many pagan gods. The SERPENT(SATAN) IS VERY PROMINENT IN THE VOODOO RELIGION/YORUBA! MANY ASPECTS OF YORUBA/VOODOO ARE CLOSELY RELATED TO BLACK MAGIC. Blacks today still rely on
voodoo, witchcraft, black magic, and animism with no particular pantheon
of Gods, no priesthood, not anything that could develop them past
superstition and barbarism.
See the following link below to see how African Americans are still practicing this abomination:
THE GENERATIONAL CURSES THAT HAVE FALLEN UPON THE BLACK RACE TODAY FOR THEIR WICKEDNESS
IS IT POSSIBLE THAT ACCORDING TO RABBINICAL JUDAISM, THE BLACK RACE IS UNDER A BIBLICAL CURSE?
In the Jewish religion, as ordained by the Babylonian Talmud, Blacks are
eternally cursed through the channel known as "The Curse of Ham." The curse originated in Chapter 9 of Genesis in the Bible, and was applied to Ham, son of the prophet Noah. The origins of The Curse
of Ham originated within the `wise' rabbinic pages of the Talmud, which
damned Blacks to an infinite existence of enslavement. Stated the
rabbis, "Ham is told by his outraged father that, because you have
abused me in the darkness of night, your children shall be born black
and ugly; because you have twisted your head to cause me embarrassment,
they shall have kinky hair and red eyes; because your lips jested at my
expense theirs shall swell; and because you neglected my nakedness, they
shall go naked." Moses Maimonides, Judaism's most celebrated
rabbinic `sage,' has written that Blacks are "irrational mute animalswho
are "below mankind but above monkeys ." Maimonides' views are central to the overall Jewish view of Black
people, as his name among Jews is an infallible and holy one. Talmudic
rabbis have deepened The Curse of Ham over time, attributing bestiality
as a regular engagement among Blacks, depraved sexual
fantasies of their ancestor Ham fornicating with dogs and ravens and thus, having his
skin damned with even more blackness for his perversion.
According to Catholic mystic Anne Catherine Emmerich vision,
"I saw the curse pronounced by Noah upon Ham moving toward the latter
like a black cloud and obscuring him. His skin lost its whiteness, he
grew darker. His sin was the sin of sacrilege, the sin of one who would
forcibly enter the Ark of the Covenant. I saw a most corrupt race
descend from Ham and sink deeper and deeper in darkness. I see that the
black, idolatrous, stupid nations are the descendants of Ham. Their
color is due, not to the rays of the sun, but to the dark source where
those degraded races sprang".
Ham (Africa)
Ham (Heb. "hot" or "Black") was
Noah's second oldest son and part of the family of eight who
survived the great flood. Ham and his wife bore 4 sons who became
the fathers of the nations of Africa. Ham's fourth son Canaan was
prophetically cursed because he gazed at his fathers nakedness while
he was drunk. This curse would mean later that Canaan would lose his
land to the Hebrews and would be subservient to the descendants of
Shem. The Hamites were known for their physical endurance.
The Four Hamitic Nations:
1. Cush
(The Ethiopians) settled in Ethiopia south of Egypt, also early in
their history some of them migrated to an area north of the
Persian Gulf (Gen. 10:8-10).
2. Mizraim
(The Egyptians) the Bible name for Egypt, settled in northeastern
Africa.
3. Phut
(The Libyans) sometimes translated Libya, settled in northern
Africa.
4. Canaan
(The Canaanites) settled above Africa east of the Mediterranean
(Later was given to the Hebrews see map below).
#Black Lives Matter began in 2013 but
only recently attained great national popularity and prominence with the
death of George Floyd, and allegedly on his behalf. Although the name
indicates that black lives really matter to this cause, it has not
actually helped black folks in the least and is not actually about the
welfare of black people at all. In fact, it has arguably greatly harmed
black people by bringing in violent outsiders to
stir up and lead the crowd – and destroy black neighborhood stores and
businesses. However, as the BLM “onion” was peeled back, it was learned,
through its founders own words, that the core group was made up of
self-proclaimed Marxists. Their mission is – through anarchy and
violence – to destroy the nation as founded and install a radically
different government in its place. #Black Lives Matter, though
originally believed by most people as being a movement working for
police reform and lifting up actual black people, became recognized by
many as a Marxist political power grab. But as the “onion” has been
peeled back still further, it has become evident the #Black Lives Matter
movement goes much deeper in its aims and is far darker even than its
Marxist political agenda. It is rather a deeply occultic religious group
“wearing political garb.”
It should be noted that, for the moment,
we still have freedom of religion and freedom of worship in this
nation, so celebrity actors, singers, entertainers and their followers,
as well as the leaders of BLM, have the freedom to believe and practice
as they wish. However, the right to believe and worship as one
chooses is not the same thing as affirming that all beliefs are equally
true or valid. Some beliefs are false and some even dangerous.
One of the Odu Ifa founders of
#BlackLiveMatter is Patrisse Cullors, who raised quite a stir amongst
conservatives and evangelicals when it was revealed that she and other
leaders in the organization are trained and dedicated Marxists. More
recently, the deeply occultic religious underpinnings of the group’s
core began coming to light. Patrisse Cullors was raised as a Jehovah’s
Witness but was drawn to know more about her ancestors and ancestor
worship, which led her away from the Watchtower Bible and Tract Society
to a more occult form of religious belief and practice. In “A Prayer for the Runner by Patrisse Cullors,” Patrisse and co-cofounder and Odu Ifa adherent Melina Abdullah, engage in an explanatory discussion of their religious faith and how integral it is to what they do in BLM1. Patrisse explains how she was drawn awayfrom the JWs and inexorably drawn to the West African spirituality of Odu Ifa2:
You know I was
always someone who almost obsessed about ancestors, Black ancestors in
particular, and I wasn’t raised with honoring ancestors necessarily. I
was raised Jehovah’s Witness with a little bit of that. As I got older
and sort of feel like I was missing something. Ancestor, ancestral
worship became really important, and as you know, the Fowler Museum is
so important because it has, it has a bunch of West African traditional,
um, pieces inside that museum, and it was one of the first museums that
I went to that was speaking directly to African spirituality.
Patrisse and Melina spend a fair amount
of time discussing calling up, calling on, and enjoying a close
fellowship with spirits whom they believe are spirits of deceased
Blacks. This, by the way, is divination or necromancy and is expressly
forbidden in Leviticus 19:31:
Do not turn to mediums or necromancers; do not seek them out, and so make yourselves unclean by them: I am the Lord your God.
Necromancy is the pagan practice of allegedly communicating with the dead (We believe these “spirits” they commune with are not spirits of dead people, but evil spirit beings assuming the identity of the dead) These women have become mediums and necromancers! A few moments earlier, Melina spoke to her practice3 of calling up the spirits of the dead:
…become very
intimate with the spirits that we call on regularly. Right, like, each
of them seems to have a different presence and personality. You, know I
laugh a lot with Waukesha, you know. And I didn’t meet her in her body,
right, I met her through this work.” (Waukesha Wilson who was found dead
in a Los Angeles jail cell in 2017)
As Melina noted, she did not meet Waukesha Wilson when she was living but built a “very intimate” relationship with a spirit representing itself
as Waukesha Wilson sometime after she died. During the conversation
with Melina, Patrisse described the offerings they make to the spirits
with whom they are communicating. Patrisse Cullors wants the viewers to
be aware of how central it is in their rituals to call out the names of the deceased.4:
“It’s a, it is a
very important practice, hashtags are for us are way more than a
hashtag. It is, um, literally, almost resurrecting a spirit so they can
work through us to get the work that we need to get done.”
They are calling on, having intimate relationships with, and actually being indwelt by spirits, “so they can work through us to get the work that we need to get done.”
One might argue that their private
religious experience, worship practices and core beliefs are theirs –
and they are entitled to them – but these issues have no bearing on the
movement called #BlackLivesMatter. That might be true IF those beliefs and practices were not directly tied to #BLM. However, this religious belief and these practices are the very foundation
of BLM. A #BlackLivesMatter “protest” is a religious ceremony dedicated
to and guided by the spirits with whom they are in contact. As Melina
Abdullah describes it5:
When we come out
into the streets, and we pray, you know, the first thing that we do when
we hear of a murder is we come out. We pray. We pour libations, we
build with the community there, where the person’s life was stolen. And
it took almost a year for me to realize that this movement is much more
than a racial and social justice movement; at its core it’s a spiritual
movement. When we say the names, right, so we speak their names, we say
her name, say their names, we do that all the time. You kind of invoke
that spirit and then those spirits actually become present with you.
Right?”
Patrisse Cullors fully agrees with
Melina, as a few moments later she says, “I believe so many of them work
through us.” So, when we see these women at the beginning of a
“protest,” practicing what seems to be simply mentioning names of those
they believe were unjustly killed by police (who are described as
hunting down and killing Blacks), they are actually worshipping,
invoking and calling on these spirits to guide and enable them and the
protestors. Offerings (libations) are made to those spirits in the
process! But no one has to take our word for it, as you can hear this
from their own lips. In “The Fight for Black Lives is a Spiritual Movement” By: Hebah Farrag. He reports:
On June 2, 2020,
Black Lives Matter’s Los Angeles Chapter sponsored an action in front of
Mayor Eric Garcetti’s house, demanding reductions in the city’s funding
of police. The action, what many would call a protest, began like a
religious ceremony. Melina Abdullah, chair of the Department of
Pan-African Studies at California State University, Los Angeles, and
co-founder of BLM-LA, opened the event explaining that while the
movement is a social justice movement, it is first and foremost a
spiritual movement.
She led the group in
a ritual: the reciting of names of those taken by state violence before
their time—ancestors now being called back to animate their own
justice:
Please note that BLM “is first and
foremost a spiritual movement” and the chanting, pouring of libations
(liquid offerings), “is a form of worship.” #BLM has 16 chapters, which
fits in nicely to the core teaching of Odu Ifa on the importance of the
number 16:
According to oral tradition, the 16 odu
ifa were 16 heavenly prophets that came down to Earth and revealed
themselves to Orunmila, the prophet of Ifa religion. Orunmila is also
known as the deity of wisdom that was present during the creation and
allocation of destiny for all human beings6
But there is more:
Each odu contains
information associated with the good and the bad. It provides guidance
on how to manifest the good and how to keep negative disruptive forces
known as Ajogun at bay.
It is through the
divinatory processes that the odu currently shaping our lives is
revealed to us. This sacred act of divination (performed by an
experienced Babalawo or Iyanifa) is what provides the opportunity that
allows us to know ourselves better. Furthermore, it allows us the
opportunity to know how we can live and maintain a positive life for
all. 7
These are the major Odu, and then there
are the minor Odu, of which there are 240. Combined there are 256 odu
Ifa in the Ifa corpus which is 16×16 cubed:
256 odu Ifa refers to the complete collection of the Ifa corpus.
There are a total of 256 odu that make up the foundation of the Ifa
religion. The previously mentioned 16 principle or major odu ifa are
considered the pillars of the Ifa corpus. The remaining 240 minor odu
ifa are derived from these 16 major odu. 8
It should be noted that many black,
brown and white Americans who support BLM are, or consider themselves to
be, Christian. Yet these tenets, practices, and occult rituals are deeply
anti-Christian, and condemned in the Bible. Despite this, #BLM now has
the allegiance of liberal and progressive, as well as some evangelical,
churches. In addition, they enjoy huge financial backing from major
American corporations, sporting franchises, liberal print and social
media, and quite a few elected officials. In addition to monetary
backing, the trademark of their spiritual movement has been painted on
the streets of New York by the mayor, emblazoned on basketball courts
and football fields, with the very names of the spirits to be called on stitched on the jerseys and stenciled on helmets of players. Hundreds
of millions of dollars are being funneled into the funding of this
religious cult by corporations, organizations and even famed retired
basketball super star, Michael Jordan, who has pledged to donate 100
million dollars over the next ten years.9
The Spirits are About to Speak
In the classic Rocky and Bullwinkle
cartoon show, Bullwinkle J. Moose would lead into a commercial with that
famous phrase, “Eenie Meenie Chili Beanie, the spirits are about to
speak.” Rocky would ask, “Are they friendly spirits?” That is a question
we need to ask as well. #BLM is, as they put it, “first and foremost a
spiritual movement” for which the spirits they have called upon are
about to speak at their many protests. What sort of spirits are they
which cause mayhem, pillaging, looting, burning down businesses and
homes and killing or throwing lethal objects at police officers, as well
as brazenly calling for the death of police officers throughout the
nation? What sort of spirits would cause the injury and even murder of
people who would disagree with their politics or methods? These are
certainly not Bullwinkle’s “friendly spirits,” but we do believe the
spirits behind BLM are actual spirit beings, the “evil spirits”
condemned in the Bible, obviously the “negative disruptive forces known
as Ajogun” – demons – referenced above in Odu Ifa’s own literature.
It should be apparent to all that these
very violent though supposedly “peaceful protests” have absolutely
nothing to do with racism. It is a religious battle, which few
Christians are prepared for and even less unbelievers understand. This
is a spiritual battle for the souls of those living in this nation:
In
conclusion: Based upon my research I submit that the African people
were allowed to suffer consequences bearing striking similarities to
that of the Jews in ancient Israel for their apostasy and wickedness in
serving foreign gods. Therefore, the black African slaves ultimately
were allowed to suffer the horrors of slavery as a result of God's judicial wrath for their wickedness, which wrath still continues to this present day through their decendants the unrepentant African Americans.

On January 10, 1963, the House of Representatives and later the
Senate began reviewing a document entitled ‘Communist Goals for Taking
Over America.’ It contained an agenda of 45 separate issues (attacks
and techniques) that, in hindsight, were quite shocking then and equally
stunning today. Over the last 50 plus years since this list was introduced in the
House, many things have changed, among them that the Soviet Union is
gone and Communism isn’t mentioned by the controlled MSM anymore. Why?
Because the founders of Communism, World Zionism, is now the dominant
force in the Western World and controls virtually every
major geopolitical, social, cultural and commercial aspect of our
existence. Most importantly, about 27 of the 45 Communist (Zionist) Goals on the
original list have been or are being achieved. (History has largely
retired the other 18). These remaining 27 items will…or should…shock
you. It is essential to also understand that world Zionism CREATED
Communism, took down Russia, set up the Soviet Union and created two
World Wars in which over 100 million died. Whether the term
is ‘Communism’ or ‘Bolshevism’ or ‘Socialism’ or ‘Marxism’ they all
emanate from one source – World Zionism. That must never be forgotten. So, as you read through this list, understand and never forget that
these goals, most now 100% implemented, are all ZIONIST goals. Here, in part, are the most blatant Zionist Communist achievements
listed in that original list of 45 Goals. Read this group very
carefully…these are the most sweeping, revolutionary, devastating and
deadly Goals on the list from 1963. ( I will list all original 45
further down the page.) Here we go… 4. Permit free trade between all nations regardless of Communist
affiliation and regardless of whether or not items could be used for
war. 11. Promote the UN as the only hope for mankind. 13. Do away with all loyalty oaths. 15. Capture one or both of the political parties in the United States. 16. Use technical decisions of the courts to weaken basic American
institutions by claiming their activities violate civil rights. 17. Get control of the schools. Use them as transmission belts for
socialism and current Communist propaganda. Soften the curriculum. Get
control of teachers’ associations. Put the party line in textbooks. 18. Gain control of all student newspapers. 19. Use student riots to foment public protests against programs or organizations which are under Communist attack. 20. Infiltrate the press. Get control of book-review assignments, editorial writing, policy-making positions. 21. Gain control of key positions in radio, TV, and motion pictures. 22. Continue discrediting American culture by degrading all forms of
artistic expression. An American Communist cell was told to “eliminate
all good sculpture from parks and buildings, substitute shapeless,
awkward and meaningless forms.” 23. Control art critics and directors of art museums. “Our plan is to promote ugliness, repulsive, meaningless art.” 24. Eliminate all laws governing obscenity by calling them “censorship” and a violation of free speech and free press. 25. Break down cultural standards of morality by promoting
pornography and obscenity in books, magazines, motion pictures, radio,
and TV. 26. Present homosexuality, degeneracy and promiscuity as “normal, natural, healthy.” 27. Discredit the Bible and emphasize the need for intellectual maturity, which does not need a “religious crutch.” 28. Eliminate prayer or any phase of religious expression in the
schools on the ground that it violates the principle of “separation of
church and state.” 29. Discredit the American Constitution by calling it inadequate,
old-fashioned, out of step with modern needs, a hindrance to cooperation
between nations on a worldwide basis. 30. Discredit the American Founding Fathers. Present them as selfish aristocrats who had no concern for the “common man.” 31. Belittle all forms of American culture and discourage the
teaching of American history on the ground that it was only a minor part
of the “big picture.” Give more emphasis to Russian history since the
Communists took over. 32. Support any socialist movement to give centralized control over
any part of the culture–education, social agencies, welfare programs,
mental health clinics, etc. 37. Infiltrate and gain control of big business. 38. Transfer some of the powers of arrest from the police to social
agencies. Treat all behavioral problems as psychiatric disorders which
no one but psychiatrists can understand [or treat]. 39. Dominate the psychiatric profession and use mental health laws as
a means of gaining coercive control over those who oppose Communist
goals. 40. Discredit the family as an institution. Encourage promiscuity and easy divorce. 41. Emphasize the need to raise children away from the negative
influence of parents. Attribute prejudices, mental blocks and retarding
of children to suppressive influence of parents. 42. Create the impression that violence and insurrection are
legitimate aspects of the American tradition; that students and
special-interest groups should rise up and use [“]united force[“] to
solve economic, political or social problems. THESE are the key Communist Goals on the list and demonstrate clearly
how America has been subverted and torn apart from the inside out. You
can see the entire, original list of 45 down below…a list that was
entered into the Congressional Record in 1963. – Jeff Rense Comment From Founders’ America foundersamerica@hotmail.com 12-7-2 Jeff…adding a couple of my own numbers… 46. Import anti-white racists from the Third World, via an
open-borders policy, then force their integration to divide and conquer
white Western civilization in North America. 47. Feminize men and disarm both the citizenry and military; especially disarm white males. Rense.com
