Being black means being subject to, misused, and/or abused by people who classify themselves as white in all areas of people activity including Economics, Education, Entertainment, Labor, Law, Politics, Religion, Sex, and War.

So what do you plan to do about white supremacy? Are you ready for war? What will replace white supremacy? JUSTICE?

AndWHOshould define Justice? Black people?

So long as people lay claim to land and fight to defend "their boarders" and the riches the land offers, there will be inequality. Whom ever controls the richest land and the most powerful weapons will be the supremest(s).

YOU Virtual_GODjust wanna be on the supreme side.


Peace

To me to be positive, to be confident, to let God give you the correct guidance, to help others, to have self-respect and integrity, to love your fellow man and to be the better person is being black because we are all of that. I think to be black is to raise the standard. Show people, this is how it should be done and this is how you are to conduct yourself. To have a successful household. Thats all being black...


Where there is'nt ORDER, there's CHAOS!!!

I plan to produce justice. Producing justice is considered WAR for people who are only interested in maintaining this unjust SYSTEM. I have given a definition of justice that I think results in no person being in a supreme position and that definition is "guaranteeing no person is mistreated and also guaranteeing the person that needs help the most get the most help".
Quote:
In a just situation (justice) where no person is mistreated and the person that needs help the most gets the most help there is no supreme position in terms of people. The people that know the most, in terms of how to get things done, guarantee the people who know the least, are able to get things done because the people who know the least get the help they need. Only people interested in mistreating other people are interested in maintaining and expanding this unjust SYSTEM we currently live in.

No... i am not a white person. I am a very dark brown-skinned man.

Many people before YOU have made plans for their version of "justice" and have failed to makeEVERYBODY happy/content. (from the Egyptians + Greeks+ Romans+ British Empire+ America, all have failed). YOU seem to believe that YOU posses the key to "happiness for all". Stop eluding yourself... do you really think thatYOUR "plan to produce justice" will suit everybody? erh.. NO!

There is no such thing as "justice", there is only ORDER. Laws are here to maintain ORDER not produce "justice". That is theFIRST thing taught to law students.

Hypothetically speaking, so what happens when you have taken over the world and some people (say a religious group) rejectYOUR ideas of "justice", what do you do with YOUR REBELS? killthem, incarcerate them (your tax payers wont like footing that bill) Who are you/ Who will you beto JUDGE them to anything?

If your ideas for justice are so brilliant why don't you simple make them your political manifesto as you run forMayor of your City? Not so simple eh?

Ever heard the phrase "THE PATH TO HELL IS PATHED WITH GOOD INTENTIONS"?

To define "justice" you must first define "Good (moral)" & "Bad (immoral)". Seeing as this task has not yet been achieved by anybody ever, i wish you the best of luck!

peace
