Black Spirituality Religion : I Call Upon The Innocent Souls

[Perfection]

Hello Celia.

I had been knowing about you for a few years but only now just started writing about the little I know about you.

Your story is like so many other untold and unnamed innocent souls. The live, every-moment of-the-day horrors. I shiver at what you experienced. What you endured. The evil that awaited you each night.

What you Queens faced was nothing short of interactions with wickedness.

They said that you warned him that night. But see, I wanna stop right there. Because the way they explain it is as if you had no objections of the evil done against you since this 70 year aged something evil purchased you in Audrain County, Missouri back in 1850. I think you were 14 or maybe even younger when he bought you.

If we believe them, you welcomed this evil for 5 years and it was only the night of June 23,1855 that you stopped wanting to be raped.

I don't believe that cht.

It's amazing to me to hear the many reports about you and how everything went down that night. It's amazing to me because of how these people are so deceptive regarding the real circumstances. For example, the night of the murder, they say
you said to a reporter "The Devil got in me."

I don't believe that either.

You were raped for years, impregnated by the monster and your childhood was systematically taken away from you but somehow the "devil" got in you when you finally had enough of the cruelty.

You decided to end the evil which was haunting you but yet the "devil" was inside of you. Whatever.

You didn't tell that reporter that bulsct...as always, they lying.

I don't know if you heard of Nat Turner. He was killed in Virginia approximately 20 years before you were sold. And let me tell you, before Nat went on his mission, he didn't say it was the "devil" who was directing his steps but he said God came to him with the vision and said "go forth."

One of the most interesting things about this evil situation is we can clearly see into the mind of this wicked individual.

Robert Newsom, the cunning rapist, I would argue (based on inference and the available evidence) must have been plotting to get you even while his wife was still alive. His mouth was watering for black skin as he hoped his wife would hurry up and die so he could start raping a victim of war.

I can imagine his wife being sick and on her dying bed and all her family gathering around at her last remaining days on the Earth and all the while Newsom was praying for her immediate death so he would no longer have to conceal his lusts for black skin.

But I'm sure his wife, like all slave-owning wives, knew their cheating-hearted husbands preferred black skin over theirs.

And when death finally came upon his wife, Newsom almost immediately went to purchase you. Didn’t give his wife a full year in the grave before he started hunting his victim. In fact, it's conceivable once the facts are closely examined that Newsom had already made arrangements to purchase you while his wife was dying.

Sneaky, dirty, low-down muthafk.

As you know, Newsom, the child rapist, was a very rich man. You saw it. You lived on his land. His portfolio included 800 acres of land that included cows, horses hogs, beef, sheep and oxen and other stuff.

His wealth wasn't uncommon to other farmers in Callaway County. Most farmers lived that way.

His wealth helps us understand his evil. Because reasonable people can conclude that this rapist, with all his wealth, prestige and status, chose not to marry another white woman--not even a younger white girl, but instead, he--like nearly all of evil white slave owners of that time, lusted for black skin of all ages.

Think about that for a moment. A very, very wealthy rich white man, right? He could have married possibly anyone (white) he wanted based on his wealth alone.

But he wanted the "slave."

Consider marriage laws in the State of Missouri during the 19th century. They were very loose. It was only recently that the laws of Missouri changed in 2018 basically adding a hurdle or two for lower age marriages. But before then, Missouri was the number one State where you could marry a very, very young girl. I'm talking 12 or younger.

So if Newsom's sexual tastes changed at the death of his beloved wife, or, his taste was just released and manifested and he wanted a baby (basically) who was still playing with dolls, Missouri law could accommodate.

The choice was his.

But no, this rich, slave-owning farmer lusted for black, baby girls.

Alfred v. State illuminates the
convergence of these varied techniques in maintaining the domination of the en-
slaved, and cultivating the pained and burdened personhood of the enslaved.

In Alfred v. State, Alfred, a slave, was indicted for the murder of his overseer Coleman.

A witness testified that Alfred admitted having killed the overseer: "The defendant
wanted to introduce a witness on his behalf, a slave named Charlotte, who stated that she was the wife of the prisoner ... Prisoner's counsel then proposed to prove, by Charlotte, that about nine or ten o'clock in the morning ... (the overseer) Coleman
'had forced her to submit to sexual intercourse with him'; and that she had communicated the fact to the prisoner before the killing" )

Although the defense attempted to introduce Charlotte as a witness, and
thereby prove that Alfred's actions were motivated by the rape of his wife, the district attorney objected to Charlotte's testimony. The court sustained the objection, and the prisoner was convicted and sentenced to be hung.'(Alfred v. State, 37 Miss 296, October, 1858)
