WHY DO WHITE PEOPLE HATE US SO MUCH? BECAUSE THEY ARE STILL ANGRY ABOUT THE PHARAOHS AND THE MOORS!
By Legrand H. Clegg II -- Several months ago, I wrote an article claiming that one
of the driving forces behind White racism and animosity toward Black
people is that of retaliation. In summary, on a deep, subconscious level
the White collective has inherited from its ancient and medieval
ancestors an entrenched resentment of Black people that was originally
caused by Black ostracism, domination and enslavement of primitive
Whites when Africans ruled the world. Given the fact that this is
February of the Black quadricentennial year (1619-2019) of enslavement
in America, and given recent racist events in this country, I have
chosen in this article to revisit and elaborate on my theory of global
White resentment and retribution toward people of African descent.
In our confusion over the persistence of White racism across generations and in our effort to become accepted as ordinary American citizens just as everyone else, we, as Black people, have appealed to the White collective with demonstrations, protests, petitions, prayer vigils ,etc.; none of which has led to a genuine cessation of racism on the part of the White establishment or masses.
Rather than continue these modes of thought and action, I believe we as a people should pause, gather our wits about us and calmly evaluate the true nature of White racism toward us. From such analysis we will find that today, as in the past, we are not just facing racial prejudice and intolerance but, rather, a deep-seated, visceral, reflexive loathing of Black people by Whites on a global scale that appears to defy all logic, has persisted over the centuries and is gaining renewed momentum during the Age of Trump.
