"The power relationship between Blacks and Whites is an interactive one — where White power, to a significant extent, arises out of certain types of social interactions between Whites and Blacks where Blacks unwittingly play a very important role in constituting | and sustaining their powerlessness relative to Whites. White domination of Blacks in our current social context is primarily facilitated by the fact that Blacks think of themselves and of reality in terms created by the self-serving interests and perspectives imposed on them by Whites, and act on the basis of biased and false information provided them by Whites without realizing it. They therefore contribute to their powerlessness and domination by Whites simply by thinking about themselves and reality in a manner that allows them to be subjugated. Thus, White domination of Blacks is, to a significant degree, covered-over by ideology, beliefs which Blacks have been conditioned by Whites to unwittingly accept. To this degree, their domination and powerlessness is self-imposed. Blacks obscure their unnecessary domination by Whites and contribute to that domination by their own gullibility and too-ready acceptance of Eurocentric ideology and their obsequious willingness to think and act only within the confines of White-generated ideas, social definitions, relations and ethics (not often honored by Whites themselves). Hence, the minds of Blacks are Used to forge the links of their own mental chains. [MORE]
Nothing to Lose But Your Head. Many victims of racism preach that you must always comply with cops. This bullshit will get you killed. A black uncle once explained that late one night while drunk driving - slowly driving down the road deep in southern Virginia he was pulled over by a white cop. During the stop he told the cop, "I've been beat by a white cop before but I've never been beat by a faggot cop like yourself." The white cop just laughed, told him to be safe and let him go home.
You never know who are dealing with in the street. If you are indeed dealing with a psychopathic racist cop it would be stupid to expect him to treat you humanely. Robotic compliance with his incriminating questions and orders would be mindless.
Will you comply with a maniac cop while he is beating your woman or mother on the side of the road? Will you robotically comply with them when you have a good reason to believe that you will be killed? What are you living for? Are you a slave in a prison camp? Do you want to go out like a compliant Jew on his way to the oven during Nazi Germany?
If you are looking for some kind of formula for how to deal with racist police you are lazy or confused. The internet is filled with how to do shit like how to bake pecan cookies, fix your hard drive and whatever. Motherfuckers like the mf's that killed Tamir Rice, Phillandro Castro and Alton Sterling are maniacs – or psychopathic race soldiers. There can be no set plans for dealing with a maniac. It is like making a plan to deal with falling out of a tree.
The problem is not compliance. It is robotic, automatic, "always" compliance - having some set pre-made plan or code and script ready to go. Its not that guides or rules are never useful. They may be but there can be no robotic application of them.
During an encounter with a racist cop your thoughts are swinging back & forth like a monkey. "Why the fuck did this cop stop me? this is some bullshit; I did not do anything wrong, I am sick of this shit, Is there anything wrong with my license, my car? What is this fool going to do now? What the fuck! Why am I still waiting? I have rights!" This deep monologue or "thoughting" prevents you from paying attention to the present moment. You are thinking about the past (why you were stopped) or worried about the future (what will happen). You are really not present in this moment with that maniac cop and you are missing what is happening in front of you. You are split - and you are trying to listen to two people at once - the cop and your own stream of thoughts.
In this state of mind you are an enemy to yourself. There is no such thing as just “be calm” or forcing calmness. That is acting. It is only a mask, soon it will wear off and when you speak you reveal what is really going on inside. You are not really conscious in this state of repression, you are also not alive - you are a walking corpse in a very provocative situation. If you have gotten through these encounters doing shit like this without getting arrested or injured - it had nothing to do with your skills. Consider the following rules:
1. If you are dealing with a white officer presume that you are dealing with a racist cop
2. Assert your rights but comply with cop orders
3. Do not incriminate yourself by word or action [do not respond to statements]
4. Do not consent to any searches.
Overstand that life is not concerned with your logic and generalities - it has its own rules and it cannot be scripted. What is true in one circumstance may be false in another. Legal truths give way to reality on the street. (Magic legal phrases and arguments are only enforceable in a courtroom LATER ON– as in the future, perhaps after you are gone). Life is not a video to pause and rewind. Shit happens quick, your valley of decision will be unique. The misapplication of the above rules could get you killed, injured or placed in greater confinement. So how will you know when and what to do?
The only rule for dealing with cops is awareness. You must be consciously present in the moment, completely aware of what is going on internally and externally. You must be able to think clearly, to spontaneously respond like a windshield to what is in front of you based on a clear unfiltered perception of what's really real, right now - plans, a set script of what to say and what to do is bullshit. Constitutional scholars and persons who memorize codes also will miss what is present in the moment inside them and also misperceive cop demeanor, tone of voice, body language, communicated words and environment. In fact, unless you are aware, the more knowledge you carry like that will slow you down.
Anything you do or say while you are unconscious will be stupid. Dr. Blynd offers the following definition in the Funktionary:
unconsciousness: "that which lacks any integration within itself - instability; uncertainty and confusion. 2) the rejected suppressed and uncharted part of the ego. It is the unconscious that goads us to most of our activity. A divided mind, with the an unconscious and a conscious one, can never apperceive things as they are. "Truth is adulterated with falsehood in the same proportion to which one is unconscious" - Osho (See Mind, Truth & Reality Laundering).
If you can be alert, present in the moment when you are dealing with that cop you will be calm. Calmness is a by product of your awareness. This awareness can only be cultivated through meditation. Meditation enables you to be "the center of a cyclone." No matter what chaos is going on externally, you can remain centered. [MORE] Only in a state of mindfulness will you have the wherewithal to correctly apply or evaluate any knowledge. Even still your mindfulness must be strong to deal with racism during a prolonged or intense traffic stop. Otherwise the forms, feelings, perceptions and thoughts that pop up in your mind will take over- making clear thinking or perception of reality impossible.
Meditation is not thinking, concentration or contemplation. Meditation is just silently witnessing what your mind and body is doing, thinking and feeling. Like watching a game on TV, there is nothing to do - just sit and watch your mind and body. Unlike watching a game you must watch without reacting to what you observe; don't judge what you observe, just witness it. Vipassana meditation is such a simple thing that even a small child can do it. Learn about it [HERE]
Quite simply, in a state of awareness you will automatically know what to do and do it spontaneously. Whatever you do will be the right thing to do - as it will be a response not a reaction.
Prior to any traffic stop consciously do the following:
Obey traffic laws
Keep the inside of your car and trunk clean
Organize your car papers in a binder. Keep papers up to date.
Organize your wallet so that you can easily pull your license out
Try not to pull over in a poorly lit area
Turn the lights on inside your car when you pull over and make hands visible
Nigger is what is being done to you. Nigger means victim of white supremacy.From [HERE] and [HERE] The New York Times tells the story of Lenny Singleton, a Black man who was charged with robbery at the age of 28 and sentenced to 100 years and two life sentences without the possibility of parole.
To fuel his crack habit back in 1995, he walked into 13 stores over eight days and either distracted a clerk or pretended to have a concealed gun before stealing from the cash register. One time, he was armed with a knife with a six-inch blade that he had brought from his kitchen.
Mr. Singleton accepted a plea deal (must have been an outstanding plea offer negotiated by a top notch barrister), fully expecting to receive a long jail sentence. But a confluence of factors worked against him, including the particularly white judge who sentenced him and the zero-tolerance ethos of the time against users of crack cocaine. His sentence was very long: two life sentences. And another 100 years. And no possibility for parole.
No one was harmed in his case. Singleton said, “I was out of my mind on drugs, but I wasn’t going to hurt anybody,” he said. “I was just after the money.”
Mr. Singleton had served in the Navy. Now he works in a furniture plant at the prison and earns 80 cents an hour building furniture used in Virginia’s universities. But a percentage of his pay is subtracted for court costs and fines, and he still owes the state $1,800.
Mr. Singleton’s prison term, which makes it likely that he will die behind bars, attracted little attention in 1996. It was [and is] common for the mostly white judges in Virginia and the mostly white judiciary in the rest of the country to impose long prison terms for crack-related crimes against Black people.
William F. Rutherford, the white judge who sentenced Mr. Singleton, has been retired for years. During a recent series of interviews, he said he had no recollection of the case, but after he reviewed Mr. Singleton’s court files, he said he had no regrets about how he handled it.
“Under the circumstances,” he said, “it would not be unusual for me to give out that kind of sentence.”
As the prison population has increased sharply over the past 30 years, so too has the number of those sentenced to life. Mr. Singleton is among nearly 160,000 prisoners serving life sentences — roughly the population of Eugene, Ore. The number of such inmates has more than quadrupled since 1984, and now about one in nine prison inmates is serving a life term, federal data shows.
According to the New York Times 'there is a growing consensus [among white people] that the criminal justice system has incarcerated too many Americans for too many years, with liberals and conservatives alike denouncing the economic and social costs of holding 2.2 million people in the nation’s prisons and jails.
America imprisons more of its citizens than any other nation on earth by far, including countries with far greater populations. The United States has less than 5% of the world's population. But it has almost a quarter of the world's prisoners. One in four Black men is likely to be imprisoned. And Congress is currently debating a criminal justice bill that, among other provisions, would reduce mandatory minimum sentences for nonviolent offenders.'

[The First Crime is Theirs. Check out when white folks discuss systematic racism they talk about it like it is a thing of the past. White supremacy is based on deception. The refinement of white supremacy requires changes or system updates to occur particularly at times when the victims begin to see their chains - where chains are visible the victims will want to escape from bondage -so this must be prevented. The over-incarceration problem has been obvious to many Blacks for a while. The System of White Supremacy Requires a Substantial Number of Non-Whites to be Incarcerated [more]. All the statistics are necessary for whites. We already know [not believe] what it is. If you are confused about it go to your local courtroom and see for yourself. If you live in an urban, diverse environment the first thing you may ask is where are all the white defendants at? Another subsequent refinement of white supremacy are the addition of many more Black prosecutors, judges and courtroom staff. Think about it, without them present, the courtroom would look racist. Consequently, your belief would be shook; our belief is all that binds the system together. Entirely all white judges, lawyers and courtroom staff are the visible chains of the old model of white supremacy/racism. It had to be updated for Blacks to maintain their belief in the system. The only product the criminal court produces is the appearance of justice. Black persons in the courtroom are filtered in (and out) with the correct programming in service of white domination of course- they, along with most black defense attorneys, are all believers in the court system. Such belief is a pre-requisite for their participation - without it, court would simply not look real to the black public - which would defeat its purpose.
Dr. Blynd explains that "courts mainly exist to put a veneer of legitimacy over crimes against the poor by the rich and to ensure the privilege of private property over personal property."
A story told by Baghwan Rajineesh may help illustrate the above mentioned points;
It happened in China, twenty-five centuries ago...
Lao Tzu became very famous, a wise man, and he was without any doubt one of the wisest men ever. The emperor of China asked him very humbly to become his chief of the supreme court, because nobody could guide the country‘s laws better than him. He tried to persuade the emperor, ”I am not the right man,” but the emperor was insisting.
Lao Tzu said, ”If you don‘t listen to me... Just one day in the court and you will be convinced that I am not the right man – because the system is wrong. Out of humbleness I was not saying the truth to you. Either I can exist or your law and your order and your society can exist. So let us try it.”
The first day a thief was brought into the court who had stolen almost half the treasures of the richest man in the capital. Lao Tzu listened to the case and then he said that the thief and the richest man should both go to jail for six months. The rich man said, ”What are you saying? I have been stolen from, I have been robbed – and what kind of justice is this, that you are sending me to jail for the same time as the thief?”
Lao Tzu said, ”I am certainly being unfair to the thief. Your need to be in jail is more, because you have collected so much money, deprived so many people of money that thousands of people are down and you are collecting and collecting money – for what? Your very greed is creating these thieves. You are responsible. The first crime is yours.”
Lao Tzu’s logic is absolutely clear. If there are going to be too many poor people and only a few rich people, you cannot stop thieves, you cannot stop stealing. The only way to stop it is to have a society where everybody has enough to fulfill his needs, and nobody has unnecessary accumulation just out of greed.
The rich man said, ”Before you send me to jail I want to see the emperor, because this is not according to the constitution; this is not according to the law of the country.” Lao Tzu said, ”That is the fault of the constitution and the fault of the law of the country. I am not responsible for it. You can see the emperor.”
And the rich man said to the emperor, ”Listen, this man should be immediately deposed from his post; he is dangerous. Today I am going into jail, tomorrow you will be in jail. If you want to save yourself, this man has to be thrown out; he is absolutely dangerous. And he is very rational: what he is saying is right – I can understand it – but he will destroy us.”
The king understood it perfectly well. ”If this rich man is a criminal, then I am the greatest criminal in the country. Lao Tzu will not hesitate to send me to jail.”
Lao Tzu was relieved of his post. He said, ”I had told you before, you are unnecessarily wasting my time. I was saying I am not the right man. The reality is, your society, your law, your constitution are not the right constitution, not the right law. You need wrong people to run this whole wrong system.”
The problem is that the forces that we created to keep man from falling apart into chaos are now so powerful that they don’t want to leave you free to grow – because if you are capable of growing, becoming an individual, alert, aware and conscious, there will be no need of all these people. They will lose all their jobs, and with their jobs, their prestige, their power, their leadership, their priesthood, their popehood – everything will be gone. So now those who were in the beginning needed for protection, have turned into the enemies of humanity.
My approach is not to fight against these people, because they are powerful, they have armies, they have money, they have everything. You cannot fight with them, you will be destroyed. The only way out of this mess is to silently start growing your own consciousness, which they cannot prevent by any force. In fact they cannot even know what is going on inside you. [MORE]
While some groups in the criminal justice reform movement have prioritized the release of people convicted of non-violent offenses, other voices — including The Sentencing Project — have maintained that ending mass incarceration will require significant reforms for people convicted of violent offenses, as well.
People convicted of non-violent drug offenses make up only about 17 percent of state prison populations across the country, while people incarcerated for violent offenses make up more than 50 percent.
“People are celebrating the stabilization of the prison population in recent years, but the scale of mass incarceration is so substantial that meaningful reduction is not going to happen by tinkering around the edges,” said Marc Mauer, the executive director of The Sentencing Project, a Washington-based nonprofit that advocates changes in sentencing policy.
But a divide has opened within the reform movement over how to address prisoners who have been convicted of violent crimes, including people like Mr. Singleton, who threatened shop owners but did not harm anyone. Groups like the American Civil Liberties Union favor a swift 50 percent reduction in prison populations, while conservative prison reform organizations like Right on Crime prioritize the release of nonviolent offenders and worry that releasing others could backfire and reduce public support.
Nonviolent drug offenders make up only about 17 percent of all state prison inmates around the nation, while violent offenders make up more than 50 percent, according to federal data.
Turn Off that Bullshit. White people get into your mind from the outside - through a thought. It comes to us externally through statements, images and symbols and goes into your mind. This external phenomena act as a seed and then grow when further stimulated. Much of white people's nonsense conditioning come from elite, influential whites who control the media and all other resources in this racist system. The so-called free press and mass media are privately owned, profit-making, White elite-controlled corporations. Although they cannot really tell us what to think, to a large extant they can determine what we will think about. [MORE]
As pointed by Amos Wilson, "the central aim of the ruling elite's ideology process is to define the "domain of discourse." That is, the corporate elite seeks to define the limits of "acceptable ideas" and to define what is worth talking about, worth learning, teaching, promoting, and writing about. Of course, the limits of the "acceptable," the "responsible," are set at those points which support and justify the interests of the elite itself. [MORE]
Predictably, the mainstream media have begun to run news stories blaming the Blacks who were murdered by cops this week (Castille and Sterling). Somehow, it was their fault they were murdered by cops. 'The main function of such explanations is to deny white people's own role in the situation - to obscure the true causes.' Police brutality is an effect of white supremacy [the cause]. If they can describe Alton Sterling as criminal then they can justify treating him criminally. Racists are concerned with deception - never reality. Racists are looking to deceive any unconscious person (white or black) who is filled with enough belief and stupid ass desires. To white believers, these stories are ego satisfying, justifying and self-congratulatory. The whole game is going on in the beliver’s mind, and a mind filled with belief always goes on projecting things in the world, it sees things which are not there. [MORE]
Race is not real but racism is. Race is better understood as the organization of non-white people by white people or organization for white domination. The only purpose of race is to practice racism. Neely Fuller explains that racism/white supremacy is practiced through violence & deception. The substance of racism, deception, is empty or unreal - it is white people's idiocy - imaginary or dream like. Don’t get distracted by the illusion. Do you renounce your dreams and argue about how they are not real? There is no need. Do you have heated debates will small children about cartoons? Of course, you know not to take them seriously. Like so many other things in the media the news stories highlighted above are a distraction from what's really real. The question is not what to do about the deceivers - it is what to do with your mind. Do not become caught up or self identified with white people's madness. [MORE] Don't help to create more deceivers, do not participate in white supremacy [if no one believed, could they still sell it?] "Don't be a participant in any deception, be very, very alert." Learn to meditate. Watch your mind. [MORE]

1) All Americans are equal, but some (black people) must prove themselves worthy of equality. [MORE]

Ego Defense Mechanisms
Denial and distortion are the classical categorical means, commonly referred to as ego defense mechanisms, by which an ego complex avoids unpleasant confrontations with reality, itself, and its own pathological history and current functioning. Through denial and distortion of reality and its concomitant self-deception, the collective White American ego complex rationalizes and repressively ignores its origination and sustenance by means of its enslavement, rape, robbery, and murder of captive peoples; its ruthless, unconscionable, wasteful and toxic exploitation of the land, labor, and resources of other peoples; its unwarranted wars against other nations and cultures, its exploitative instigation of wars among them; its duplicitous diplomacy and propaganda, treachery and deceit, warmongering and incitations to riot; its colonizing, neo-colonizing, terrorizing, starvation, benign and malicious neglect, usurious taxation of captive populations; its segregations, discriminations, dehumanizations, psycho-manipulations of other peoples and nations in flagrant violation of its own vaunted moral preachments; its closing of its ears to the cries of its victims; the sclerotic hardening of its psychic arteries.
By means of defensive denial and distortion, self-deception and reversal of reality, the collective Eurocentric ego complex seeks to resolve its self-created conflicts and contradictions, to avoid feelings of guilt, shame and anxiety, to neutralize negative self-perceptions, and to protect its material advantages. To these ends its victims must be blamed for their own victimization. Their suffering must be seen as reflections of their own inherent deficiencies, of their servile manifest destiny, and of their being short-changed by God and Fate.

freedumb - the state of unrecognized psychological captivity that sheeple remain in because they don't speak truth to power - and when truth is spoken around them, refrain from being open, or impervious to it. 2) the mindset that proposes "since we are liberated, we are also free." 3) the mindset that operates upon the notion that you can have individuality without accountability or responsibility. 4) the pretence that reality is truth and vice-versa. People cherish and relish their freedumb because they have been socialized into self-censorship along with misidentification with the mind. (See Phreedom).
Freedumb is just a song to lip sync in your underwear. Don’t connect freedom with independence. Freedom from something and the freedom to do anything you want to do is not true freedom. [The powers that control BET have allowed the above Beyonce video [freeing ass] to be widely re-circulated while they are aggressively scrubbing the complete Jesse Williams speech from the internet as copyright infringement. Wonder why?]
Phfreedom- the positive, generative, creative and playful aspect of freedom, i.e., freedom for, not freedom from. 2) the total annihilation of the notion of a phenomenal identity as "self" or "me." 3) the impersonal subjective pronoun "I" (the universal impersonal Consciousness) occupying the position vacated by the notional or illusory personal "me." 4) Consciousness in its unidentified, impersonalized, infinitized universality. 5) the overstanding that there is no universe independent of Consciousness. 6) the feeling of the seamless Unicity of nature. 7) release of the imagined bondage of volition (the feeling of not wanting to make a choice or not having to make a decision). 8) 'Thy Will,' i.e., the expression of the funktioning of the Totality sans a "doer." 'Freedom from' is a form of bondage, 'freedom for' is emancipative but not absolute. Phfreedom can only be the release of one's idea of a separate volitional Self. There is no "me" that can be liberated because there is no objective "me" that is in bondage to begin with—purely a case of mistaken identity. 9) the dawning of a love originating out of a profound depth of realization (anterior to the perceiving mind—from Consciousness itself) that seeks the liberation of the whole—light years beyond the pettiness of the "I am" based personal freedom. Phfreedom is impersonal—the vast impersonal Love for the whole, for all beings and all things. It is the realization that you are the undivided whole. 10) the re-awakening that happens when identification with the body-mind-complex ceases. Phfreedom is not something you possess, but something that possesses you. (See: The Self, Freedom, Disidentification, Entitification, Suddenlightenment, Ego, Shadow, "Me," "I," Supreme Self & I Am).
Phfreedom fighters- men and woman who arm themselves with: greatly increased and applied reading skills, listening skills, bullshit filtering systems, psy-war skills, mentallic skills, knowledge scrolling, truth-editing, organizational skills, reality hacktivism, knowledge of adversaries, truth instead of falsehood, reality instead of truth, library cards, law books, his-story and ourstory books, freedom technology, and firearms training. 2) a martyr who has yet to earn his/her permanent status.
