Hotep Brothers! I am presently moved to tears, because after being in the "cut" my beloved brother Orginal Ape has bumped for me! Bro. Original Ape THANKS! Bro. Original Ape your explanation of my syntax/connotative meaning was right on point("point" oops! that's a slip!). Thank you my brother! It is ALWAYS good to know how a TRUE ALPHA will have his fellow brother's back and be willing to disagree/suggest different ways & means of communication behind closed doors for the sake of discretion. Afterall, ALPHA BUSINESS is strictly ALPHA BUSINESS! Bro. Original Ape, on a different accord "me" hears that YOU and Bro. Professor are in the midst of establishing a CYBER-CHAPTER! I have already put my bid in for MEMBERSHIP CHAIRMAN (CYBER-DOP). As explained to Bro. Professor I am bonded and will put my house in my wife's name along will all of my assets. Also, I will make the process....well I am not even going to lie to you, because you are my brother! I want to be a DOP again! Peace!

I see... so using derogatory statements or naming someone the 'enemy' based solely on skin colour is "positive racism"? Please... this is the same tired arguement that the Nazi party first used when they came into power - that they were so focused on the welfare and betterment of the "aryan" people that they weren't even concerned about other "peoples"...

I'm sorry but I don't buy your arguement that "positive" racism exists - that you become so focused on your own ethnic group, that you exclude and denegrate others not of your group... finally it feeds on itself further and then you start labelling those within your group as "good" and "bad", and placing greater value on subsets within your ethnic group.

All of this is unfortunately evidenced by the crap posted on your "brother's" website - revistionist history, gentic linkage of "whites" to Satan and/or lizards, use of the term "race traitor" towards those who don't believe what he's preaching, statements on how "Blackmen" are the leaders of the "race" and "Blackwomen" must serve them, homophobic statements, and so on... just go through his entire site and tell me if you can still be an apologist for the actions of a hatemonger...

It is unfortunate that you've misunderstood my definition of positive racism. Should you go back and read my definition, you will notice I said nothing about excluding others. I said one is so concerned with the needs of their own group that they don't have time to denounce others.

I see the point you make; and believe it or not, I share your sentiment on hatred. I think it's stupid to hate a group.

I acknowledge the merit of facts brought up by my brother, PHAShriner 1906, however offensively perceived; and I say the fact remains that the present state of African-Americans is the fault of many people-white and black, men and women. I will also say that my sisters' role in our present and future states is a unique one. The choice for mates, the denial of knowledge of the systematic economic castration of brothers, and their embrace of this "independence" movement is having a huge divisive impact on us as a national family.

I believe the root of my arguement that it is impossible to maintain the position of as you say "positive racism" with out the negative creeping in... and that is basically where I'm coming from, PHAShriner 1906, may have at one time began a quest for the sole betterment of "Black Men", but because of the exclsionary nature of that quest it has turned instead from "what we can do, to who we can blame" - which ulimately I believe is self defeating, for a great leader never spends the time to point the finger, but instead they lead by example.

Alrighty... personally I see the feminist movement a natural extension of the freedom movement - afterall if you see others breaking free from the previously subserviant role society placed on others... why wouldn't you want that for yourself? I don't understand why that makes them the "enemy" (in much the same way as my knuckle-dragging canabalistic kind ) - after all why not use the movement as yet again another means at improvement and social change? Why not have positive "feminist" role models and draw women into the struggle? (I don't mean militant feminism, or militant anything for that matter).

I think what may be helpful is if we had a vocabulary in place so that some of us may then know what is trully being said. Some people are unaware that the American English Lanquage evolves, like everything else. The term "racist" has a negative connotation that is widely held; however, one can be a positive racist as well. A positive racist is one whose attention is completely focused on the uplift of his/her own group: so focused in fact that they don't have time to denounce any other. I define myself as such; and if I were to attempt to classify my brother PHAShriner/1906, I would do so likewise.

Attending to the needs of our ethnic group does not make us "racist"; in fact many of the 'wider society' wish we would address our own needs and stop waiting on the government to do it for us!

I understand the concern RACooper states; however, I think it is misplaced because my brother is addressing some of the problems my people face.

I have always thought the term "Nationalist" fit better.

Habari Gani? Umoja! Habari Gani? Harambee PHAShriner/1906:

Ancestral greetings to you and your family!

I have reviewed your website. While I find it interesting and insightful, I do find it rather harsh on all of my fellow sistahs in the diaspora. The fact is, we are Goddesses, from Auset to Makeda... And that is in our genetics. Our rightful celestial place is about to unfold before your eyes... Many other cultures (all of them Asiatic) have already predicted and prophesied that "The Age of The Goddess" is upon us and what you are witnessing, is the birthpangs of the new Epoch...

The war of the antis is the last stand for some folks... if you catch my drift... Yurugus utammawazo IS to use devices if he has to... It will be heartbreakingly ugly. But it will be the birth of new Epoch that transcends the very Heavens... Finally...

But I do agree with you, we Goddesses cannot do it without our "Godheads"--that is from Dr. Ben... Think Ausar after Seth killed him and what Auset had to do... What was the last piece She was unable to find?

However, your response to Cooper must be lovingly without heart... That the true Benin and Yourban tradition.

The answer to him is "How can I take a speck out of your eye, when I have a board in mine"... Visualize his synaptic transmissions, then...

I do think several Queens have lost their bearings. However, I think your reasons have yet to access the entire issue... Especially when you begin to understand the cultural Asili of Yurugu. Witchcraft was done to pursue a sexual fantasy in upper Europe... Afrikans were called doing witchcraft because their "science" was above comprehension to the "missionaries" from the Crusades while they fought the Moors... At the same time the Ottoman Empire feared the Afrikan-Centered Scienced and suppressed it by taking their "won" prisoner's of wars and made them slaves to the Roman Empire that practiced more blasphemy of the KMT and MTU-NTER rituals than comprehension... Then when Constantine I became emperor and embraced Christianity, he still practiced this blasphemy, however, re-wrote the whole entire conceptualization behind what Christ truly stood for and died for... But I digress...

The fact is, even if you embrace Christianity from an Afrikan Centered Perspective, you still must provide the concept to the understanding why Christ loved His Church and who the Holy Spirit really is...

And it makes more biological sense.

Akeerah,

Okay honest question time:

The Hotep and Ptah Hotep? Is that something Fraternity related or is it a reference to Ptah-Hotep the Egyptian sage from the 5th Dynasty? Or a bit of both? But if it has to do with Eygptian greetings and and "good-byes" shouldn't it just be Hotep ("peace" or "pleasing to god")?
