New Bell A Fragile Disguise free Where Trees Die Alone White Feathers Comrade I would say you can ask Tamir Rice or Trayvon Martin, but they're dead.
So must one go beyond their blackness, or a perception of blackness, in order to be beloved by the White consumer and rewarded by the white power structure? Does embracing one's blackness limit one from the fruits of American capitalism? Are the fruits of American capitalism the desire of Black people in America? I ask that final question because that is what we got when we integrated; we got American capitalism.
We got the chance to make money and purchase a few luxuries when we integrated. Some Black activists became politicians and pawns. Some Black intellectuals became tenured professors and wrote some books. Some in the Black church stopped preaching about power and prayer to preach prosperity. We got nice houses and nice cars, but the rules changed so that things could stay the same before we integrated. We were excluded from some neighborhoods redlining.
We were redistricted so we could never see a majority in our representation gerrymandering. Our schools remained segregated but without educators who knew us. Some got rich, others got famous and many were miseducated, but we're still Black. Thankfully, some never forgot it. Some understood that there is no transcending race.
Muhammad Ali never transcended race. He never tried. He was a Black man and that is who he wanted you to see.
He could never go beyond being Black because being Black is who he was. He was a member of the Nation of Islam. He may not have agreed with all Nation doctrine, however he did agree with the projection of power and self-esteem offered by the Nation to Black people, including himself. Contact When Day Descends.
