Counter-Racist Evolving Engineer (CREE)

CLEVELAND ROCKS, Right?

The video of the 59 yr-old black male bus driver delivering an uppercut to the jaw of 25 yr-old black female passenger Shidea Lane on a Cleveland public transit bus has gone viral.

The hosts will discuss the reactions to the video and their implications.  It seems to the host that many victims of the system of white supremacy need attention in the infirmary before they are ready to even begin counter-racist basic training and that others already on the battle-field need to report to the infirmary as well.

Here are are some of the  facts that were/are known to those publicly commenting:

The female passenger and male driver insulted one another verbally; the female passenger spat on the driver's face and put her hands on his thoat or hit the driver then sat down; the driver parked the bus and then walked over to the passenger and delivered a closed-fisted punch to her jaw.

Having heard or read, first-hand, very little of what Hispanics/Latinos say about black people, the hosts were fascinated to hear what a Harvard educated attorney and eye-witness to Malcom X's talk at UC Berkeley, Nicholas Vaca, had to say about where Latinos stand---and don't stand--- relative to black people.  Sonny and I listened carefully.  We think it's something that all black people should hear.  After we share our thoughts, we'll take calls---to hear what others think. This will be a continued elaboration on our now modified racial classifications

Vaca will not be a guest.  We'll play and review his comments on his 2004 book, "The Presumed Alliance: The Unspoken Conflict Between Latinos and Blacks and What It Means for America."

Sonny and Cree will pick up where we left off in the last conversation and share other observations we've made about the socio-material terrain over the last couple of weeks.

We'll play a very interesting audio clip. But, it's not the same as seeing the video footage.  Here's a link so you can SEE it for yourself:  Democratic Flap over God and Jeruselum

Once white folk have been installed on your hard-drive by "dating" or "marrying" you or a dear one , a simple uninstall will not ersase the event.  This is a  conversation between Cree and her "husband" about our recent efforts in this regard and about the effects of viruses attached to the hard-drives of dear ones. 

This is NOT an explanation or statement on the certain irreparable harm of such an event. It is intended as a scientific discussion about the effects and remedies.  Might not work for every victim....but, this is just a frank discussion on the hard choices we've faced and the results or expected results.

What is love, how is it proved, and what does one do---what do black females do--- until it is proven?

We'll pick up the conversation from last  week, discussing the functional value and defintion of  erotic "love"  between black males and black females while under the construct of global white domination...and whereever else the improvisational funky science group that show up tonight takes it. 

(The converstaion between LBM and Cree is preceded by about 40 minutes of music and a short replay of a TED talk on the theme.)

A funky conversation on black "attempted parents"* disciplining/correcting their offspring* by hitting/ spanking, whippin'/whipping---that leads into a funky conversation about the importance to combatting racism (white domination) of females being truthful in answering the question, "Was it good for you?"

Feel like talking, being creative about trying to solve The problem.  If you got something that seems a stretch in relation to solving this problem and most people would lauhh at you or have no idea what you're talking about, I wanna hear it.  What news or science stories have you run across that seem to hae no relationship to racism have you been thinking about that might be able to help us move forward?

Whatcha got?  Bring it on.  We might laugh becasue it's fun but not at you.

A TED talk by Daniel Wolpert:

"We have a brain for one reason and one reason only,and that's to produce adaptable and complex movements.

If mr. Wolpert is correct, there is a lot of evidence that black people are the most able of all humanoids on the planet at brain function in that we seem to be the most gifted athletes and that is a complex statistical algorithmic ability and not, essentially, one of muscle function.

Yet, we are and have not been moving to our advantage.

Why?  Cree offers some thoughts and shares this TED talk for later discussion on on how the information can help us solve The Problem.  What movements do we need to make to solve The Problem?

Cmptrwhiz Whiz, a Facebook associate with whom I  have been working on the Abstain Until  campaign to end the terrorism of black people by white enforcement officials said the following recently on one of his status updates:

"The more I sit back and read, the more I see the 'web'... We [ are so very limited in our topics and interests that in my observation, it goes to show how encapsulated we have been kept.

Constant elevation causes expansion. We must elevate folks!"

The hosts agrees and does not except herself from that exhortation.  To that end,  and because this is a crucial date of  business involving LeBron James and Dwyane Wade, black males who have made a stand to tilt the chess board toward justice, this will be a broadcast of the third TED talk  the host finds particularly intriguing.  Author Neely Fuller often exhorts victims of the global system of white supremacy (racism) to learn as much as we can about everything because of the interrelatedness of all things. In this TED talk are some things to consider related to the question of what it means to be "human,", ie., "humane", i.e., the Univeral Man/Woman that will inhabit a universe of justice.---and it's relationship to black people being "in love."---the previous two TED talks broadcasted on this venue.

Today, we'll take up the questions raised in listeners minds during and after two TED talks on "romantic love" by Helen Fisher (a white woman and neuro-anthropologist) that were broadcasted on this venue on  5/24/12 & 6/7/12.

The host invites open and active minds on open phone lines.
