Talk is cheap; talk is like a wailing mad wild jackal.
To some ragged unscrupulous rogue charlatan cowards, talk is meant to
intimidate. Talk is rubbish; talk is bullshit; talk is pessimistic; talk is
optimistic; talk builds; talk destroys; talk remedies; talk taints and paints
different pictures.
This is real talk
Due to the hegemonic colonial conquest that
bred the global system of white supremacy, most Caucasians are born in the
world of privileges on the expense of other races. Most Caucasians who are born
within the continent of Africa inherits the heritage of superiority that can be
traced directly to the epoch of colonial conquest.
The first human of African descent that they
(Caucasians) come across from childhood is either a domestic servant or a
caretaker. As they grow up, they see a large proportion of people of African
descent - working as servants for other Caucasians - in all spheres of life.
And at home, most of them are bombarded with the negative narration by their
parents - that they are superior to the servants that they see around – serving
them; that is evident from the utterances that were made by Penny Sparrow -
with numerous reported racist statements and actions that has been imposed at
most – by Caucasians towards Africans. Even those who are naturally gifted in
the art of critical thinking - are bound to accept the indoctrination - because
they can see a large proportion of Africans in the state of servitude for
Caucasians in every discipline.
Now, a Caucasian man or woman who had been
indoctrinated and bombarded with a sense of superiority over other races,
particularly the African race – numerous times since childhood - with religion being utilised to validate the
indoctrination; and to a degree, the illusion had been optical through the
numerous Africans who serve Caucasians in all spheres of life; can he or she
have a genuine respect and acceptance towards the people that he or she had
seen (on the larger scale) occupying inferior positions in all spheres of life?
Maybe YES, or maybe NO! That’s precisely because, besides the
indoctrination, they had seen the state of Africans - in comparison to that of Caucasians
- numerous times since childhood; or perhaps, some of them had seen otherwise.
Deep inside, most Caucasians believe that they
are superior to other races, particularly to people of African ancestry; that
goes even to some of those who may sympathise with African people. That
explains the depth of racism in academia, art, sport, business and all spheres
of life. This is not a mental speculation. This is real talk. Whether you
reject my utterances with enormous contempt, or you accept them as genuine
truth; you know the truth.
