We're here to stay!<BR/><BR/>Yes, there was an avalanche of negative, filthy, insulting, childish, immature, rude, viscious and crude remarks on this blog. I did not read SFGate.<BR/>Amidst those remarks it was difficult for me to discern what real political issues were being raised and how serious the bloggers were. Therefore <BR/>it was difficult to maintain any respect in regards to those posts.<BR/><BR/>I have assumed the responsibility to struggle around these issues with my fellow white folks, so this is my last reply to you.<BR/>It is appropriate that you and other concerned African-americans discuss this issue directly with the African members of InPDUM and the staffers out at the Uhuru House.<BR/>I have appreciated our communication and wish you the best in the future.<BR/><BR/>Respectfully, Dave from UHURUredbeardhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01066249714784436262noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4557280286542721403.post-19335648489798432162009-03-29T20:25:00.000-07:002009-03-29T20:25:00.000-07:00This comment has been removed by the author.toussainthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06126687915950495724noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4557280286542721403.post-69155075544094331772009-03-29T13:38:00.000-07:002009-03-29T13:38:00.000-07:00This comment has been removed by the author.toussainthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06126687915950495724noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4557280286542721403.post-18766228656445752192009-03-28T16:39:00.000-07:002009-03-28T16:39:00.000-07:00Good afternoon fellow bloggers, citizens and frequ...Good afternoon fellow bloggers, citizens and frequenters of Oakland, California,<BR/><BR/>Thanks to Toussaint for the thoughtful response and, again, thanks to Wendy for providing the communication forum.<BR/><BR/>We did not choose Lovelle Mixon for a "poster boy". The notoriously viscious and corrupt OPD chose Lovelle Mixon for a so-called routine traffic stop.<BR/>There may or not be a dispute among thinking people as to the "victimhood" of Lovelle Mixon but there is definitely a significant consensus among thinking people that Lovelle Mixon was a product of the current economic/political system, as we all are.<BR/><BR/>We do not need to admit we made a "serious tactical error", because we did not. In fact, in my life time, there has been little or no support from the white community to address police brutality/murder in the African communities across this nation. The Uhuru Movement has a 30+ year documented history of addressing this issue.<BR/><BR/> This issue and the overall crisis of capitalism and Imperialism is necessarily polarizing our fellow citizens. Yes, there are folks who would try and undermine our fundraising activities. This is a choice they make to maintain the status quo relationship we whites have to the African community. This is logical and has happened before. We are interested in those fellow whites who can take the time and energy to understand the historical need for real economic development in the African community and Reparations to the African community.<BR/><BR/>We insulted no one because fundamentally this dispute is political not personal. Regardless of the consciousness of Mr.Mixon or the police officers, they were part of a historical political struggle that began when our political and/or biological ancestors stole the African workers and their labor. We, the white community, then needed to organize a "PD"<BR/>to recapture those Africans who managed to escape our "containment".<BR/><BR/>Here are a few books that I recommend for backround material.<BR/>Respectfully,<BR/>Dave from UHURU<BR/><BR/>Slavery by Another Name: The Re-Enslavement of Black Americans from the Civil War to World War II by Douglas A.

I'm white.<BR/><BR/>There is a continuous historical record of police brutality in the black community. It is not hidden, and among thinking people it is not disputed. You can choose your own date as to when this historical period began, but it is always consistent.<BR/><BR/>This is true also for police murdering black people. The record is clear, public and ongoing.<BR/><BR/>What suggestions do you fellow bloggers have to resolve this historical, profound and deadly problem?<BR/><BR/>Respectfully,<BR/>Dave from UHURUredbeardhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01066249714784436262noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4557280286542721403.post-21878919158859043942009-03-25T22:47:00.000-07:002009-03-25T22:47:00.000-07:00This comment has been removed by a blog administrator.Wendy Lea Snyderhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07490915555981644404noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4557280286542721403.post-79249394929456635682009-03-25T22:28:00.000-07:002009-03-25T22:28:00.000-07:00This comment has been removed by a blog administrator.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4557280286542721403.post-31824955891040971452009-03-25T22:22:00.000-07:002009-03-25T22:22:00.000-07:00you are an idiot you racist swine. way to bring a...you are an idiot you racist swine. way to bring a race card into a senseless and evil situation that should be based on what happened not the color of anyone's skin. i seriously hope you rot in hell with him. sounds like you'll delete this comment as well as the list i see on your page bc you keep only the ones favorable to you BECAUSE YOU ARE A COWARD. if you can't take the heat- then keep your ignorant, IGNORANT mouth shut.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4557280286542721403.post-27934040695134653332009-03-25T21:16:00.000-07:002009-03-25T21:16:00.000-07:00This man was not African!

It's so disgusting that people are saying I'm African American and aren't from Africa. Why don't you just say you want to be African and Go There! At least in Africa, the people there do these acts for survival or hunting, not just to plain Kill somebody.

But it goes to show what sort of journalist you are, besides a poor one. When one choses the path to drug dealing, rape, assault and overall violence - one choses the consequences as well. Behavior is a choice - the scumbag shooter made his choice - there is no reasoning on earth that can condone his actions. You yourself are a scumbag as well.ACChttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12930523616905232205noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4557280286542721403.post-7318669621389938982009-03-25T18:57:00.000-07:002009-03-25T18:57:00.000-07:00This comment has been removed by a blog administrator.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4557280286542721403.post-76588868155326465282009-03-25T18:25:00.000-07:002009-03-25T18:25:00.000-07:00This comment has been removed by a blog administrator.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4557280286542721403.post-64745151417055876872009-03-25T16:20:00.000-07:002009-03-25T16:20:00.000-07:00This comment has been removed by a blog administrator.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4557280286542721403.post-16815370122293655312009-03-25T13:50:00.000-07:002009-03-25T13:50:00.000-07:00This comment has been removed by the author.toussainthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06126687915950495724noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4557280286542721403.post-31104718859969459102009-03-25T12:05:00.000-07:002009-03-25T12:05:00.000-07:00Why does Israel reject asylum-seekers from Africa?...Why does Israel reject asylum-seekers from Africa?? those fleeing hardship?<BR/><BR/>Israel rejects and deports the Africans.<BR/><BR/>Even Ethiopian Jews routinely face hate and bigotry from Israeli citizens.<BR/><BR/>Let's speak out!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4557280286542721403.post-30441431732217587482009-03-25T10:38:00.000-07:002009-03-25T10:38:00.000-07:00Wendy is either a hapless troll or a diabolical ge...Wendy is either a hapless troll or a diabolical genius.

That along with your innate hostility toward all European peoples and cultures is why you promote such barbarism.
