i read an article about this book, but also if you have seen the john singleton film ' babyboy' with tyrese, this book is referenced. i believe its something about europeans having a deep rooted fear about how dominant the african gene is and hence serves to keep blacks subordinated because of this fear of the planet being over run with dark folk. at the begining of 'babyboy' though its something about balck men being kept in almost a child like state, but yes i know its a film but when i found the article- which was an interview with the author, it was an accurate depiction of her theory.

oops...i really shouldn't have said anything here because i really can't remember too accurately. i just remember telling myself that i need to read it- dr cress welding or something like that.:?sorry...

This may assist you.

So might this:

Genocide: a system of survival: One on one with Dr. Frances Cress Welsing

You may find it easier to listen to one of her tapes before attempting to read the book.

@Blu Oshun has given a summary of the book and I will wait until he has read it. But my conclusion is it is is US academic hocum pocum. I mentioned this in the Chiek Anta Diop of the type of dodgy work coming out fom America.

What Wesling has done who I have time for in her early work. Is go from an assumption of black genetics being stronger which is a fact and will spear the mathematics. Noted white peoples both hostility and envy to race and black AFriacans in particular which is cool. And then made some mircaulous leaps in sceince and logic to go where she wants.

This is called building theory backwards from the conclusion. But I will let you guys read it and will discuss another time. But at least I have told you to what to look out for and test it yourself.

I recently had the pleasure attending a book signing of Dr. Welsing book Isis Papers at my favorite bookstore http://www.africanbookstore.net she was there for over 5 hours speaking and signing. It was supposed to be for 2 hours but she stayed on.If you ever get a chance to here her speak you won't regret it.

I know what you mean, especially by means of being mentally incapacitated. Do you know that blacks out number whites globally? You know, this is reminding me of the Animatrix (if you don't know about this DVD you should get it).
There was a segment on there called "World Record". The main idea being that they wanted the character who happened to be black (yeah some kind of coincidence) inside the matrix and to not exceed the confines of it to reach his potiential.
There is a short synopsis about it online.

Do you see the connection that I see?

HLF.. I've seen that same said Animatrix. Deep. But I felt it depicted that whole enslavement of people in general. It reminded me of the 'sheep menatlity' David Icke mentions in his books. We are constantly being led, told what to do, no-one (those in power) wants you to be free from the constrictions/boundaries they put on you. That particular clip was very insightful..even deeper obviously cos he was black.

I have to say..Animatrix great. Funny you should mention that segment. Because I had a fundamental issue with that (very minor..but didn't set quite right with me). He could get through to the matrix because of his physicality...not because of his mind....or thought process or being brainy. He was an athlete...that errr...what? crippled? Just had a little issue with that part. The animation and style was top notch. Enjoy all the Anime masters story with the exception of the girl looking for her kitty...didn't really feel that one...oh...err and the Alice in Wonderland one...it was great..they just broke from the character with the agent coming and then fading. I know...its nit picky sounding ..but one should not break the rules of characters to fit the story...they should have found a way to write around it. Whole series is tight though.
