Since the beginning of time free thinking can be define as anyone who did not conform to status qua-wherever was social, political or any kind though outside, like Jews refusing to accept Christianity or Islam prescription of the Messiah or political moments from the right or left in19 century. The Blog follows the spirit of Spinoza which challenge not only his own Hebrew roots, but also Christianity with the tolerance of Montaigne. We dedicate this blog to all them were burn for dare to ask.

Invisible Mann
I did not born in six days
or six thousand days,
but I was born 120,000 or
100,00 years,
I was born in the plain of
Africa, which I carry all of you,
I have your brown, dark,
white, red and yellow.
I have the eyes, black,
hazel, brown, green and red
I have your brown, hazel,
red, black and yellow hair
but you do not see me, I am
in the corner lay down,
yes, I am in pain, I am the
one who serve your flag,
but you found your way out,
I had to serve, because I was
brown, yellow and black.
I am with the Kippah, the
Turban, the Hijab
I am your sister, you mother
You walk away, and you did
not see my back, whip of the master
You do not see my hands, punished
by the sitting rocker of my mistress
You do not see number in my
Arm, since you deny sanctuary of my escaping
my tormentors, because I was
born, because I believe.
You do not want to see my eyes, so I can not read
You do not want to see my eyes, so I can not read
I only hear the lynching of
your anger, for losing you war to own me
The burning of my place to
pray, by your hands, in your amnesia
you do not want to see me,
you chase me in my prayer house to
send to my death
I only heard the empty voices of the Middle Passage
You took my bonds, I do not who I am, I do not know where I come
I do not where I am
I only heard the empty voices of the Middle Passage
You took my bonds, I do not who I am, I do not know where I come
I do not where I am
you do not see me, I am your
brother, your sister, you father and your mother
in your amnesia of your
actions wanted to wash your hands, but your actions
set in stones, the wind will
wipe, but your actions still in space
you do not see me, but you
are, what I am
Invisible Man/Women acknowledgment Races in US
The NY times in the recently
serial 1609, when then British Colonies introduces the Slave economy who has
been in effect for 400 years developed the end becoming the US, while conservatives
screechy not the events or facts but the most, the simple act of not just bringer
to the surfaced, but to make normal, 80 years since Nazi Germany invaded Poland,
not just the official beginning of WWII (which Soviet Union, to share East
Europe with German expansion, but Nazi Germany had other plans), today victims
confront the victimizers, every city in Germany, despite the in the DDR, to
overcome the Industrial Genocide of the Jews, Simtias (Gypsies), Homosexuals, Jehovah
Witness, the mentally ill (their first victims), political dissidents, sold the
Communist fair tale, they were first victims not the predators, still you walk
in Germany, France or even in Italy, despite the right wing populism, there is bronze
bricks with the name of the person who was taken, the day they born, day of
death and location. In cases were the society do not take responsibility, the
victims and supporters many from their society confront, today the diplomatic
spat between Japan and South Korea, in
heart, the victims demand from right Japanese Government acknowledgement, while
the compensation is in issue, Germany have taken responsibility and with
pressure the companies who participated are force to confront their own
history, the question become what about US.
To the election of Obama
force to the surface, the Slaves and economics from the work of the slave,
while his election was due the free marketers who roots are in the slave economy,
the idea only me, specially, the reason why the US does not have and universal
health care, because if the idea of social equality was not in cards to be
outside of white America, (Sick From Freedom—Dows, 2012 Oxford), the free
marketers from Hoover, Regan, Busch Senior and Junior, and since Nixon Southern
Strategy to made Southern Whites, the Confederated States as the Republican
bases since the Democratic Party become the home for the African Americans
demanded end segregation for equality, the recklessness and speculation free
markets roots are in the Southern Plantations.
While in Human history, the
idea of force labor—and slaves can be trace every continent and civilization,
Athens in his golden age in 5th and 6th century B.C.E had
80,000 slaves in Homer Iliad as bounty of war, which case of Athens and Greece,
in the Agriculture, the same was Rome, with Christianity, Paul accepted slaves,
but slowly become not acceptable, last in Russia with the end servitude in 18
and 19 Century, the British Colonies (eventually forming the US), the rationalization
was in tow levels, one the used of Bible, the course of Noah to Ham, and secondly
as Hannah Arendt in Origin Totalitarianism, Imperialism, the based was
pseudo-science of races, Cecil Rhodes, view, his own support to Oxfords
University was to advance select whites.
The creation of a Republic
in the British Colonies—the democracy of representation was to find a consensus
between the slaves and non-slaves states (The Common Cause—Parkinson, 2016 The
University of North Carolina Press), while the consensus was shrine in the Constitution,
given the Slave Owners 3/5 vote (Article 1—Section 2 Clause 3), to prelude to
the Civil War, a policy of white only society—which wealth but race (only white
protestants, Wilson and the current white supremacist administration), Jackson
founded the inclusion, poor white farmers in the south by expanding the west
(the same idea National Socialism in Germany in 30´s to East of Europe living
space), setting foundation of white only society, but not just power, Obama was
elected one, every single time the Republican administration are in power, the
free market fantasies crash the economy, the idea by transfer the wealth to
white elite, one ended (or tying to end) any community or social support and
elite will decided where to transfer the wealth, in fact the white elite,
because according to them (G´d) give the right to the white elite to decide, of
course, you ca not create wealth out Magic, with not sharing or invested, they
white elite benefice, the long they not others, the rationality because an entitlement
given because their race or a G´d, but reality creep back and the crash. The
second the population shift where non-white dilute their power, one other
factor which in south women many cases the wealth was on the slave ownership,
since one innovation of the US Capitalism was not just Tobacco, replaced by
Economy of Cotton, but the collateral was not Farmers or Plantations owners but
the Slaves are the Collateral, the banks did not take Farmers property, but
Human—Slave was the collateral (The Half Has Never Been Told-Baptist 2016,
Basic Books), the cruelty of the Southern Women to the Slaves was about control
of their own destiny—relationship with white males (They were Her Property
Jones-Rogers, 2019 Yale University Press) for the white man the use of light skin
slaves as sexual object from Jefferson to Strom Thurmond (Governor and Senator
from South Carolina avid Segregationist), the current White Supremacist Administration
is to actualized Jackson 19th Policy, the decline of white
population, and misogyny patriarchal white in the US, have put into question,
his trade war—whether are some reason, the hearth is race in global level the
white does not control their historical destiny, since Sciences cannot be own,
anyone can do, the Scientific Method based on two factor, one control and
secondly can be reproduced, the simplicity give access to anyone, eventually by
defector technology, because the fear same applied from the Populism of Neo-Russification.
While US trying to figure
out how desi-engage slave economy which Baptism argument was very efficient and
transforming, Europe abolition of slaves, and the south looking for expansion to
Texas (white Texas wanted to keep Plantation economy) or purchase of Cuba,
Lincoln wanted to devolved slavery for period, according to his table early 20
Century, the south brake and civil conflict which 3% percent was lost (1
Million 30,000), between 650,000 to 950,000 Military Casualties from 2 Million
and 350,000 injuries, (like in this situation, white elite avoid the draft, in
the south 10% deserted (100,000) and the north 100,000 when to Canada, 280,000
deserted during the war. 200,000 African Americans for the Union, many cases
the high casualty in Union Army, the needed standing soldiers, in many cases
they Union own the victories, like in case 54th Regiment Massachusetts Volunteer Infantry:
“Regiment
July 18, 1863 spearheaded an assault on Fort Wagner near Charleston, South
Carolina. 270 of the 600 men who charged Fort Wagner were killed, wounded or
captured.
At
this battle Colonel Shaw was killed, along with 29 of his men; 24 more later
died of wounds, 15 were captured, 52 were missing in action and never accounted
for, and 149 were wounded. The total regimental casualties of 270 would be the
highest total for the 54th in a single engagement during the war”.
“Now
under Command of Colonel Edward Hallowell, the 54th fought a rear-guard action
covering the Union retreat at the Battle of Olustee. During the retreat, the
unit was suddenly ordered to counter-march back to Ten-Mile station. The
locomotive of a train carrying wounded Union soldiers had broken down and the
wounded were in danger of capture. When the 54th arrived, the men attached
ropes to the engine and cars and manually pulled the train approximately three
miles (4.8 km) to Camp Finnegan, where horses were secured to help pull the
train. After that, the train was pulled by both men and horses to Jacksonville
for a total distance of ten miles (16 km). It took forty-two hours to pull the
train that distance.
As
part of an all-black brigade under Col. Alfred S. Hartwell, they unsuccessfully
attacked entrenched Confederate militia at the November 1864 Battle of Honey
Hill. In mid-April 1865, they fought at the Battle of Boykin's Mill, a small
affair in South Carolina that proved to be one of the last engagements of the
war”.
After the Civil war the
Radical Republicans forces the 13 and 14 amended despised, Lincoln replacement Andrew
a corrupted man, and like Louisiana cemented Plantations (Many French who survived the Slave revolt of East Dominique
Island—Haiti the enter Louisiana as refuges), Louisiana pave segregation, not
to 1963, 100 years after the emancipation, African Americans demanded end of Segregation,
never during period while the US federal Government dealt to some reparation,
to the fact US economy was created and used slaves cotton hands or rotunda of
US Congress Used slave, lending from the Slave Owners from the South, the used
of white terror to suppress African Americans, the hate or simple invisible man
(Ralph Ellison)—were African Americans
are not consider, the beginning of National Museum for African American, does
not given address a name, while Jefferson Family began acknowledge their
African American sibling, US have not acknowledge their actions, the names of
the Slaves in the plantations, the fact the slave trade destroy any kinship or
family any tide between being humans belonging, where born, where the go, where
ended, who are their sibling, the African Americans become the Invisible
Man/Woman and child. What this white supremacist administration want to revived
the idea anyone one who is not white and male, is an Invisible—no body no one
(denying women control of their body and identity—their own Mother, sisters and
daughters), they can take the children of Migrants, Japanese Americans put in
camps, Chinese deny entry, limiting Irish, Jews, Italians, now they created
quotas.
Today we can show reality,
not created reality with Magic Pencils, the white America one to create.
