Here is the 1st school I taught at as a math teacher in the so-called black Mecca. It was named after the notorious racist Henry Woodfin Grady. Hear his words in 1888:

"...the domination of the negro race resisted at all points and at all hazards, because the white race is the superior race." It is important to note that when I taught there, it was majority black. Recently, a resolution came up on the majority black school board to rename..
the school after Ida B. Wells. The resolution failed & didnt even make it out committee. Instead the school was renamed Midtown High School. But how is it possible that a school in the so-called black Mecca w/a majority black school board lack the power to simply rename a school?
The same way the majority black Atlanta City Council lacked the testicular fortitude to rename its airport after the city's 1st black mayor Maynard Jackson. Heres the fact of the matter. Majority rule only means something 4 white people. Even when black people have the majority,
they will always act in the interests of white people. I call this racial gravity. Just as the force of gravity forces everything to ground, racial gravity forces everything in this country to the feet of white people. Thus, even when we are in the majority, we will always do..
what white people want us to do. Whereas white folk don't give a shit about how their thoughts & actions affect us, negroes are always trying to find common ground w/white people & trying to outmoralize those who oppress them. This shit is sick to watch up close.
In a majority black town, a black-run school board is perfectly fine for years sending black children to a school named after an avowed racist, but for years black board members never made a move to change the school's name to that of a hero to black people. GTFOH.
Check out the recent words of Leslie Grant, 1 of the white school board members who are in the minority: "I think the geographic name seemed to be something that people felt safe with." By "people," she means WHITE PEOPLE & Negroes will always choose what safe 4 white people EVEN
when it's unsafe for black people. Put simply, even when white people are the minority, they still rule. It should be noted that Mrs. Grant lives in the heavily gentrified Grant Park, which was all black when I was growing up, but under a black mayor & a black city council,
much of this historically black community was condemned & sold to white people for pennies on the dollar. Many of the black people in Grant Park grew old during the crack cocaine era that decimated their children & grandchildren. Thus, they had no 1 to pass down their wealth to.
The houses became old, run-down & decrepit. Under black leadership, the city condemned their properties. White folks stepped in scooped them up & now you can't get into grant park for less than 1/2 Mil. Again, ALL UNDER BLACK LEADERSHIP.
Thus, this white school board member is speaking from the gentrified mindset of white people taking over black shit. All of this is a bad omen for the so-called black Mecca going forward. Grady High School is no longer majority black & black Atlanta leadership has increasingly...
enacted policy that makes Atlanta more hospitable to white life & less hospitable to black life. Get ready. A white mayor is coming. A majority white city council is coming. A majority white school board is coming. White folk are about to eradicate all pretense about who...
actually runs the so-called black Mecca. So remind me what precisely is the value of electing black political leaders? The idea that black life is better off under black leadership is a false proposition. We are so fucked up as a people that we are unable to discern...
when our actions & thoughts are benefitting our oppressors. People so fucked up are not 2 be trusted w/the reigns of power. Whats sadder is that, b/c everything is popularity-contest-driven, only the mediocre among us are ever allowed 2 percolate 2 the top. The smart are exiled.
In many ways, black politics overall has become a race to mediocrity where the likes of Hank Johnson can become a Congressman. Dis mafucka actually said out loud in a congressional hearing that he was worried the island of Guam would capsize & spill niggas into the ocean.
Real shit look it up. I'll put it here. If U want 2 see the mediocrity of black political leadership look no further than Hank Johnson. Yet dumb ass GA niggas keep sending this dumb ass nigga back 2 Congress. God, please save us from dumb ass niggas. Amen.
The only thing more taxing than witnessing all this mediocrity in black leadership is arguing w/Clyburnian respectability Negroes about the madness of it all. White folks fully comprehend all of this as they designed it & set all it in motion. Put simply, slavery bred mediocrity.
It was never meant for black people to be excellent in America. It was only meant 4 us 2 bask in eternal mediocrity never developing the intellectual acumen 2 ever challenge white supremacy. The same is true 2day. This was the logic behind prohibiting slaves from learning 2 read.
We were only allowed to be mediocre. Excellence wasn't an option in a system that didn't offer life. "What do you want to be when you grow up?" wasn't a question to be posed to any black child. during slavery The only choice was a survival choice, the choice of mediocrity.
You could never challenge white people less U be met w/certain death. U had 2 walk around w/your head down never looking white folk in the eye. Mediocrity meant survival 4 to dare be better than white people at anything meant your feet could go dangling from the highest tree.
In slavery the only reward given was 2 the slave who was the best at being mediocre. This mindset is still alive & well 2day. The cycle has repeated itself long enough that white people no longer need 2 program us directly. The matrix is self-sufficient & all of us are plugged in
I no longer have the energy to attempt to unplug ever negro. This leads to a vicious wedge. Black voters are often left to choose b/t racist white people & mediocre black people. My racial fatalism is born from this inescapable wedge. Contrary to hope, I see no escape.
Constantly fighting mediocre black people on 1 side & racist white people on the other side is exhausting. All of this leads me 2 the inevitable conclusion that I do not want 2 live under incompetent black rule. Just give me good old fashioned American racism....
