This speech was delivered by a white slave owner, William Lynch on the banks of the James River in 1712.



Gentlemen, I greet you here on the banks of the James River in the year of our Lord one thousand seven hundred and twelve. First, I shall thank you, the gentlemen of the Colony of Virginia for bringing me here. I am here to help you solve some of your problems with slaves. Your invitation reached me on my modest plantation in the West Indies where I have experimented with some of the newest and still the oldest methods for control of slaves. Ancient Rome would envy us if my program is implemented. As our boat sailed south on the James River, named for our Illustrious King, whose version of the Bible we cherish. I saw enough to know that your problem is not unique. While Rome used cords of wood as crosses for standing human bodies along it's old highways in great numbers, you are here using the tree and the rope on occasion.

I caught the whiff of a dead slave hanging from a tree a couple of miles back. You are not only losing valuable stock by hangings, you are having uprisings, slaves are running away, your crops are sometimes left in the fields too long for maximum profit, you suffer occasional fires, your animals are killed. Gentlemen, you know what your problems are; I do not need to elaborate. I am not here to enumerate your problems; however, I am here to introduce you to method of solving them.

In my bag here, I have a foolproof method for controlling your Black slaves. I guarantee every one of you that if installed correctly, it will control the slaves/or at least 300 hundred years. My method is |simple. Any member of your family or your overseer can use it.

[align=justify]

I have outlined a number of differences among the slaves, and I take these differences and I make them bigger. I use fear, distrust, and envy for control purposes. These methods have worked on my modest plantation in the West Indies I and it will work throughout the South. Take this simple little list of differences, and think about them. On top of my list is "AGE" but it is there only because it starts with an "a": the second is "color" or shade, there is intelligence, size, sex, size, plantations. status on plantation, attitude of owners. Whether the slaves live in the valley, on the hill, east, west, north, south, have fine hair, course hair, or is tall or short. Now that you have a list of differences, I shall give you an outline of action - but before that I shall assure you that distrust is stronger than trust, and envy is stronger than adulation, respect or admiration.[/align]


The Black slave after receiving this indoctrination shall carry on and will become self refueling and self generating for hundreds of years, maybe thousands. Don’t forget you must pitch the old black male vs. the young black and the young black male against the old black male. You must use the dark skin slaves vs. the light skin slaves and the light skin slaves vs. the dark skin slaves. You must use the female vs. the male, and the male vs. the female. You must also have your white servants and overseers Distrust all Blacks, but it is necessary that your slaves trust and depend on us. They must love, respect and trust only us.

Gentlemen, these kits are your keys to control. Use them. Have your wives and children use them, never miss an opportunity. If used intensively for one year, the slaves themselves will remain perpetually distrustful. Thank you, gentlemen.

@ NaturalBlack

I have to say that given some of the comments you have come out with on this board it is interesting that you should post this particular passage, which many here are probably familiar with.
It may be a good idea for you to read carefully and consider to what extent YOU are affected by the programe.

Of course I am assuming you are of African ancestry, but if indeed you are of European ancestry then my comments are not relevant.

Respect


There are those who feel that the only way to ‘prove their own worth’ is by ‘devaluing the worth of others’. You will often find that a man who is compelled to measure his substance against the substance of another, has little of substance in the first place!

@nat

Normal practice when you start a thread is to -make a statement which will generate a debate.

Can't see how that's possible in this case since all you've done is post the ramblings of a psychotic long dead - white man who was outed as apaedophile and whodied of syphillis.

So make a point!

I am a newbie to the forum, so still learning the ropes.

Looking around the forum most people that contribute would probably have heard/read this speech.

That's not the point. Theres something in the bible about God taking more joy in one repentant sinner entering heaven thana hundred virtuous. Dont quote me on that, and I'm not likening myself to God. LOL

I only put it up for those that might not have read it or heard of it. If they spend a minute to think about it and come to their own conclusion, then it would have been worthwhile.

On this occassion, I don't wish to offer anypersonal opinion. Butcomments are duly noted!
