Neo Colonialism: New Slaves: NWO; Sins Against My Mother/ Question To Nigerians… by Jjanedoe(f): 7:27pm On Dec 12, 2016 |
Since returning from Nigeria and even before going I have had a mind to combat injustice. No, I am not the perfect angel, but it hurts my heart and pains me even deeper into my soul when I learn about the policies that are being carried out inside my Mother's land. To set the record straight I am an American citizen yes, but Nigeria is my home. It is where my roots are and it was the home of my ancestors who's blood has been shed again, and again due to the evils of capitalism, tribalism, and ignoralism. No, ignoralism is not a word, but it should be made into one. The acts of people who consistently ignore an issue that is directly affecting them. They ignore due to ignorance hence the word ignoralism. We as a people have forgotten where we come from and only wish to be exotic and to be respected inside a country that has never wished to respect nor accept us unless we are working to build their dreams or dying for their cause (America/UK/ the western world). Now to continue…to the nation who uses Jesus as God as its front to stomp the lives out of any one nation who is weaker, poorer, less educated than them. The nation who respects no one but its self. The Lady of so called liberty who comes to steal, kill and destroy all in the name of capitalism. Who takes without giving; how can one nation take valuable resources and in exchange give clean water? Or pay natives less than living wage? Is everyone not entitled to clean water and a fair wage? Must we sacrifice our souls in order to drink clean water, breathe clean air and support our families? Yes, we must sell our souls to even have the right to pursue happiness. Our natural liberties are off limits unless we meet the demands of our masters’. My question is this: Why do Nigerians want so bad to be like the Western world? Most of your fellow country people leave and like to spend money abroad, send their children to our schools, buy houses, and create business rather than build up your own country. You like to wear western styles and not your own traditional clothing. You want to be like rappers. You neglect your cultural heritage, traditions, languages and instead strive to learn another’s. You praise the white man’s Jesus as if you've never had your own more true version of religion. Yet you will enlarge your egos against one another and rage tribal war like imbeciles without home training. Why do you allow your corrupt politicians and elders to trick you into conflict with one another? Why has no one chosen to stand up. Have you not heard, if you don't stand for something you will fall for anything? How is it you strive to act civilly towards the white man but quickly become uncivil with your own brothers and sisters due to tribal differentiation? Coming to America is not a sin in itself, but forsaking one’s own country is the biggest act of disloyalty there is. I apologize if these words send offensive feelings your way, but I am not sorry. Do you know your history? Or do you only know what the Pastors preach? What the white man wants is for you to forgo or forget your own history and adopt his, which is no more than a stolen souped up version of yours. The pride that you have should be used to come together and rebuild Nigeria along with the entire African continent. Stop allowing yourselves to be colonized inside the present system of neocolonialism. The whole of Africa was once the leader the of the world. all the other nations studied and invaded the continent over and over again until we have what is what you now call home. I do not say these things to create tension, I say them as an eye opener. Many of you (Nigerians) come to America and other countries and have so much pride, but why? You leave your country in desolation only to enjoy the benefits and be among your oppressors. To increase the economy of the oppressors, while your own economy is left in disarray. If more Nigerians would keep their dollars black the respect and pride would be restored to Nigeria. How can an African American such as myself, who came to your country to find her roots do so if you guys don't even know them? How can I want to do better for a country but its residents and natural citizens are yet to take a stand for themselves today?? The fall of the black race started in Africa and has continued with Africa. If Africa does not get it together the black race as a whole will ultimately be lost. We African Americans need you, while I may be the first and only to admit it, we seriously do need you. We need all the strength, pride, heritage, and unity that can be mustered among you because this is war. War against my African brothers and sisters. War against anyone who looks black. War against anyone with the tiniest bit of melanin. War against God’s children, the elect, the first born of this world. Genocide, Mental slavery. Tribalism is racism, stop letting them divide us and conquer us! Stop falling for the white man’s trickery! Not all whites are bad, I do not hate whites but the ones who run the world and control its finances are whom I am referring to…use your smart phones and data plans to do more than browse these blogs. Better use Google for something enlightening, wake up, and get smart or die!! Oh, and if the shoe doesn't fit than do not wear it!! 1 Like 2 Shares |
