8/5/13

The Carolina Peacemaker wrote an article of comparison of TWO  racial killings of two African American males in their youth during different times in the United States; the title of the article is : "Emmett and Trayvon: How racial prejudice has changed in last 60 years";Series on Race in America - Past and Present;Elijah Anderson | 7/28/2013, 7:45 p.m.;

CONFIRMATION of the system designed to keep, hinder and block my economic progress and the threats, intimidation, abuse process to maintain a form of confinement without bars is the following statement written in the article ay Elijah Anderson at the Carolina Peacemaker; which to me means that the editior[thinking the editor reads the articles before published in The Carolina Peacemaker] is aware of systematic racial techniques to hinder/block African Americans from main stream society; The statement is as follows:

"But this pervasive cultural association-Black skin equals the ghetto-does not come out of the blue. After all, as a result of historical, political, and economic factors, Blacks have been contained in the ghetto."

[In order for the ghetto to exist-it has to have a start-means somebody who should have done something to tell negative systems/forces, "no"-did not; thereby allowing the negative forces to overtake a prosperous
neighborhood and make it into a ghetto;OR somebody did tell the negative forces "no"; but those in authority/churches did not backed the person up[community resources,etc.]and helped the negative forces instead[example=African American male owner of gas station for decades was killed after he would not move/close his gas station; and years later-DOLLAR GENERAL store put near location[/white owned/partnership] at corner of Carver Road and 311[3K's]=and DOLLAR GENERAL is so comfortable in their system of operation that everything they have done is coded[in an obvious manner] in all of their filings,business minutes,etc.[ as well as listings of local people/African American so called leaders who are involved];

"It’s no longer uncommon to see Black people in positions of power, privilege, and prestige, in top positions in boardrooms, universities, hospitals, and judges’ chambers, but we must also face the reality that poverty, unemployment, and incarceration still break down largely along racial lines."


"Emmett Till, (left) and Trayvon Martin have recently been compared but the racial climate is different today than it was in Till’s time."=is like saying that a penny is different because it has two sides=as a class project asked class to take out a penny and then tell me which side was the best side[99.9% of them debated wheather the head or tails side was the best; after about ten minutes I finally told them=there is no difference; that a penny is a penny and no matter what value you put on it when you take it to the bank, the bank counts its value as a penny;  and the author of the the article "

Emmett and Trayvon: How racial prejudice has changed in last 60 years"

where he is comparing how racial prejudice has changed is suffering from delusional concepts/blinders put on him [reward for conforming in some capacity]by society[they are experts]-prejudice is prejudice; the results for the person who is a victim of prejudice are always the same; and a climate of racial killing is a climate of racial killing- ask the people who have left the earth before their time or ask the family members who have to suffer as a result of a racial killing. But that is why Elijah Anderson has a job; and is allowed to publish his articles;[http://peacemakeronline.com/news/2013/jul/28/emmett-and-trayvon-how-racial-prejudice-has-change/?page=3];

Elijah Anderson is the William K. Lanman Jr. Professor of Sociology at Yale University. His latest book is The Cosmopolitan Canopy: Race and Civility in Everyday Life. This article, the second of an 11-part series on race, is sponsored by the W. K. Kellogg Foundation and was originally published by the Washington Monthly Magazine.
