Brother Isaiah, thank you. I pray our sister sees the need to unite under one commom cause. The freedom of our people! It isn't an easy task, but what else "is we gonna do"?

Respect

I'm not talking about treating our sistaz with honor and respect....that goes without saying.

I'm speaking of making them LEADERS and WARRIORS in the community that rival us and take our place.

Black Male Patriarchy a Threat to Willie Lynchism

Posted By: Pianke Nubiyang

The attack on Black male power and responsibility is one of the most effective weapons in the systematic destruction of the Black nation whether it is the mass killings of Black males in Dafur, Sudan, where Black women are left vulnerable, unprotected and to be raped. Or whether it is the virulent attack on the weak Black American male (and other former slave-owning colonies) who are still victims of the "Willie Lynch" program where Willie Lynch proposed dividing the Black race, "MALE AGAINST FEMALE, lightskinned against darkskinned, tall against short, house slave against field slave," ect. The rabid attack on Black male "patriarchy," and the call for patriary to be replaced by "matriarchy," has been part of the diabolical scheme used since the days of Arab and European slavery.

When one looks at what is happening in Dafur, Sudan, what does one see. One sees the perpetrators of genocide attacking Black African males, committing genocide by destroying the males, raping the women and forcing the creation of a mixed class in the effort to destroy the fabric of the Black African family structure.

In Sudan, the most horrible and most blatent form of genocide is being used to destroy the Black African family and THE BLACK MALE IS THE FIRST TARGET OF THE ATTACK. In like manner, in the Western nations and elsewhere, the attack on the duty of Black men to do their jobs as fathers and leaders in their communities rather than being irresponsible and misleaders is under attack by radical feminists whose methods are even more devastating than the outright genocide taking place in Sudan at this very moment.

The attack on Black men and the attack on "patriarchy," seems to be part of the old "Willie Lynch" conspiracy to divide and destroy the Black family. Black feminists like slaves and like these Black "Arabs" in Sudan are doing exactly what the enemy wants them to do. They are involved in self-destruction and fracticide of the worse kind.

The idea that keeping Black men at the bottom by villifying the ability of men to perform their duties is simply another philosophy of promoting male oppression. The fact is, when one speaks of the Black male and "patriarchy," one has to understand what "patriarchy" means in the African/Black community around the world. The Black communities worldwide, whether in Australia, Melanesia, India, Africa, the Americas, the Caribbean does not practice the the type of "patriarchy" that nations like Mexico, Italy or the Arab nations practice. Patriarchy in the Black community deals with men doing their duties as men and being left to do their jobs. Patriarchy in some Middle Eastern lands means women wearing burkas, or walking six feet behind their husbands.

On the other hand, the problem in Black America is not Black male "patriarchy" by a Willie Lynch "matriarchal" system that was implemented by force during slavery days. In fact in Sudan's Dafur region where the Black African men are being wiped out and the women raped, one can expect a similar social construct if the overall society and culture of the Africans do nothing to remedy this situation.

Now this man is neither a Muslim, nor does have have much love for Arabs or Europeans...both of whom he charges with destroying the black man and taking advantage of the black woman in an attempt to control the black community.

And I agree with him.

The question is....

How long do you think our women will respect us if they are expected take our place and do our duties?

If we pass that responsibility on to them, then we can no longer blame them if they decide to leave us and go to the white or Asian man who will relieve them of that unnatural burden.

Another interesting article.

Lol....a mighty interesting thread all together.

It's clear women have more power in the AfroAmerican community than in every other community in this nation but it doesn't qualifiy as being a matriarchy.

A matriarchy is a society run by women, and Black women don't run the AfroAmerican community.....white men still do.

If I got sons and daughters and allow my daughters more freedom in the family than my sons, it doesn't mean they're running the family.
I'm still running it.
