In 1971 Ron (sic Maulana) Karenga, Louis Smith, and Luz Maria Tamayo were convicted of felony assault and false imprisonment for assaulting and torturing two women from the United Slaves, Deborah Jones & Gail Davis. A May 14, 1971 article in the Los Angeles Times described the testimony of one of the women: "Deborah Jones, who once was given the Swahili title of an African queen, said she and Gail Davis were whipped with an electrical cord and beaten with a karate baton after being ordered to remove their clothes. She testified that a hot soldering iron was placed in Ms. Davis's mouth and placed against Ms. Davis's face and that one of her own big toes was tightened in a vise. Karenga, head of US, also put detergent and running hoses in their mouths, she said." They also were hit on the heads with toasters.
At Karenga's trial, the question arose as to Karenga's sanity. It is theorized that Karenga may have had a mental breakdown due to the stress of dealing with the violence and murders surrounding his United Slaves (US) organization and the Black Panther Party (BPP). His behavior became bizarre. And, at his trial, a psychiatrist's report stated the following: "This man now represents a picture that can be considered both paranoid and schizophrenic with hallucinations and illusions, inappropriate affect, disorganization, and impaired contact with the environment."
"Ujamaa (cooperative economics)"
I've seen this "word" Ujamaa, in the news, a lot, recently.
It's usually the surname of someone that the FBI/CIA/NSA/DHLS is looking for......
Many great men are not appreciated in their own times... and vice-versa, more or less. Thanks for the pic of the pompous, strutting little pr**k--I'd never seen what he looked like, now or in his "prime."
Sorry, I adopted my two black children, and don't need a hokey made up holiday to push socialism on them. I home school them to protect them from the socialist line.
Perhaps something could be done to prevent irresponsible production of children by people who have no ability to care for them?
Somebody is in a bad state of denial and has lost all touch with reality.
Mace Windu had a fur coat?
When I was little, I went to bed in my Ujamaas.
That black men plant their seeds like busy little bees going from flower to flower.......and that black women accept such casual and disrespectful treatment from their men.....is the most destructive aspect of modern black society.
Just something to think about next time you see some 'sistahs' acting like they're tough. They accept being treated like just another warm place to put it. And the children are the ones that pay dearly.
I've got my Kwanzaa toasters all shined up and ready!
WOOHOO!
Fake menorah
Don't ask me what white boy's doing there anyway. LOL!
He certainly would have kicked Dr. Ron "Maulana" Karenga's a$$.
BTW...
Just drop the name Kwanzaa, and call it Karenga.
God bless you for adopting these children! I hope they appreciate the values that you demonstrate.
When the priciple of Unity comes up, I know that it isn't the unity of all American, but the unity of Americans that identify more closely with being from Africa. Some of my ancestors were from Germany, yet I have nothing in common with Germany. Nice place, but.... I'm reminded of the PBS series that Henry Louis Gates did about tracing his "roots". No problem. But it was interesting when he asked his hostess what Africans think about Blacks in America, as they stood on the shore from which they were shipped. She was very uneasy, and answered after a rather pregnant pause, "We don't."
The White boy is the useful idiot! LOL! He feels left out. And if you look closely you'll notice he brought his lunch, see the paper bag...or is that a 40?
They're just thinking about the tourist $$$ they bring in on this trips to "find themselves."
"They're just thinking about the tourist $$$ they bring in on this trips to "find themselves.""
LOL!!! That and the laugh factor when one of the "pilgrims" knows only one word of the language and tries to fit in. Gates did that too. He only knew a greeting, and since he looked like everyone else, they'd start a conversation, only to leave him standing there embarrassed.
