Jamaica Moves to Become a Republic as Calls Grow for Slavery Reparations Following U.K. Royal Visit

[@michaelpcoffee]

Huge respect for any nation asserting its independence.

[@AudioPervert1]

F**K this royal visit and Slavery Reparation Bullshit. Putrid Lil Turds Of A Vampire Empire. Smoke some ganja institutional assholx who went to welcome the royalty. imagine if thoe savage english assholx had to return all the money, gold, labour and resources they looted for 200 years. The country would not even exist for all we care.

[@CaptainSaveHoe]

Not really. What is there to gain out of independence? It's not as if Brittain is still milking its former colonies. The better chance to gain reparations is to remain warmly cordial until you get what you want. Independence is letting them off the hook, basically. That's not smart.

Do not be deceived. They don’t need to pay us for slavery. They need to pay us for taking our land in the Western Hemisphere and calling us Africans when we are aboriginal to the Americas. No one is going to write a wrong for a group of people who don’t fully know who they are. Reparations for slavery is only 20 percent of what they owe us. They deported us from South America to North America and the islands and Central Americans. Most Jamaicans think they was brought from Africa. When in fact they was already on the island. Along with other aboriginal brothers coming from south Mexico and Belize. That’s right the ruling class the Mayans that somehow just disappeared. Now let’s be clear a lot of the ruling blacks Mayans was exported to the Americas as so called African slaves. Where they was already aboriginals there. Now here is the interesting thing. Hundreds of thousands aboriginal blacks from South Carolina was deported to Jamaica. These blacks carried the adinka symbols. They believe they are from the Gold Coast of Africa. When in fact they are from the Gold Coast of America. The sea faring nation that controlled the Tobacco trade around the world. A lot of islanders as well as Trina’s are from the main land of America. They depopulated the aboriginal blacks to different islands and moved alot of aboriginals from there to America. The ship logs prove this. We have to stop looking at Africa as a continent(this is a misnomer)and look at it for what they really mean when they say it. Africa is just another name for black Mother Earth. The sad part is they put our so called leaders up to this to short change us. Only paying 20 cents on the dollar. Our ancestors would be mad if we took less than what was do.

Do not be deceived. They don’t need to pay us for slavery. They need to pay us for taking our land in the Western Hemisphere and calling us Africans when we are aboriginal to the Americas. No one is going to write a wrong for a group of people who don’t fully know who they are. Reparations for slavery is only 20 percent of what they owe us. They deported us from South America to North America and the islands and Central Americans. Most Jamaicans think they was brought from Africa. When in fact they was already on the island. Along with other aboriginal brothers coming from south Mexico and Belize. That’s right the ruling class the Mayans that somehow just disappeared. Now let’s be clear a lot of the ruling blacks Mayans was exported to the Americas as so called African slaves. Where they was already aboriginals there. Now here is the interesting thing. Hundreds of thousands aboriginal blacks from South Carolina was deported to Jamaica. These blacks carried the adinka symbols. They believe they are from the Gold Coast of Africa. When in fact they are from the Gold Coast of America. The sea faring nation that controlled the Tobacco trade around the world. A lot of islanders as well as Trina’s are from the main land of America. They depopulated the aboriginal blacks to different islands and moved alot of aboriginals from there to America. The ship logs prove this. We have to stop looking at Africa as a continent(this is a misnomer)and look at it for what they really mean when they say it. Africa is just another name for black Mother Earth. The sad part is they put our so called leaders up to this to short change us. Only paying 20 cents on the dollar. Our ancestors would be mad if we took less than what was do.

I guess next the Jamaican government will nationalize the bauxite mines and create a bauxite cartel along with Guyana, Guinea-Conakry, and other bauxite producers. When Michael Manley proposed this roughly 50 years ago, he became the political equivalent of a dead man walking. I say this somewhat tongue in cheek, knowing that bauxite and other minerals are at the root of much of the current economic inequity in Jamaica and elsewhere in the Caribbean and Africa. Having had nominal political independence since 1962, I still find all the chatter about the titular relationship with Britain baffling. Until Jamaica and other mineral rich but still economically poor countries find ways to translate mineral wealth into improved living standards for their people, we will continue to have conversation about the British Crown and reparations as straw men. Perhaps one day the major political parties in Jamaica will at some point get serious about changing the economic quagmire that has characterized much of Jamaican society since 1962. Here is another piece of tongue in cheek heresy. With Puerto Rico considering the possibility of becoming the 51st state of the US, perhaps Jamaica should consider becoming the 52nd. With large Jamaican American communities in Miami and New York City, perhaps now is the time for this to take hold.

Thereby classing all the children/ wife of men who came to Britain 40/50 years ago as unrecorded .Then after 1970s Britain began deporting and refusing entry to legal British citizens.

*Repairing Reparations* As a descendant of the victims of the Maafa myself, and an African Reparations Minister / Ambassador, what offends me most is not what the Whites of Europe do or do not regarding our healing, but what we fail to do for ourselves. For the number issue challenging the reparations struggle is within, that is a complete failure among our leaders to properly define, describe and develop reparations in its truest sense. Successive African and Other Ethnic Leaders of Caribbean Governments in the Caribbean have treated the original African hair, skin, culture, language, cuisine, religions, history, institutions with disdain and disregard even within a post colonial context prompting many to conclude, myself included that Caribbean Nations as is the case with most African Nations are Neo-Colonial Constructs. Please note the following sample of fast facts, which is the unfortunate reality of the modern Caribbean experience: - The name of the MP in this video is European as are the names of all of our Caribbean African Heads of State and State Officials. - African Languages are not taught in primary and secondary schools. - African refugee or undocumented migrants are harassed, illtreated and deported from African led Caribbean Nations. - African high culture / classical civilisation is not taught in the public school system of Caribbean Nations. - White Images of God dominate Churches and Hindu Temples in Caribbean Nations. - African descended children where Western style school uniforms in the Caribbean. - UWI (University of The West Indies) negotiated Reparations be paid by the University of Glasgow not in the form of the establishment of an Afrocentric Education Endowment Fund for curation and production of original African thought, but most unfavourably at least to this author, by way of continued White Knowledge Transfer by way of free tuition and other educational programmes featuring White Academic Biases and Acculturation, that is typical of so called Western Education in theory and practice. - The Western Capitalist Model of the domination of masses for the benefit of the few is maintained throughout the Caribbean with the exception of Cuba, which is the subject of boycott, divestment and sanctions. Far from complete and comprehensive, the above list is designed to simply show that there are many things within the remit or control of African Governments to heal their own nations and African People through an Africanisation Process which is ignored at best even during the International Decade for People of African Descent and in some cases are erroneously villified as racist among Africans and non-Africans, East Indians predominantly. The question then arises, if it is racist for Caribbean Nations both Independent and Republic to practice reparations for the benefit of their own African Citizens to which it is owed for fear of how the "non-Africans" would view and treat them given their gross dependence on non-Africans for financial support, why do we / they think White Nations, save in a few instances of "Liberal Tokenism" will desire to practice reparations using the resources of predominantly White populations regardless of the Black ill gotten source of that White Wealth in terms of slavery, colonialism and neo-colonialism? Worse, the method of external reparations is not universally agreed among Africans and that speaks volumes or deafening silence in terms of what is our vision of African Reparations. Some persons usually politicians, favour financing and debt cancellation and other benefits tangible and intangibl, uncluding technology transfer and assets to be given to and controlled by governments / governors / agencies of Neo-Colonial African majority populations. Others, usually the masses, desire stimulus checks and other direct benefits. Neither of these supposed methods will work or are sufficient to repair Africans, as they do not address the fundamental issue, which is a White Washed environment wherein our leaders are beholden to Western values and villains and our people have developed deeply entrenched Western tastes. A prosperous Western Nation of melanated skin people is not the definition or description of African reparations, far from it, rather African Reparations at its heart is African Renaissance or Khepre (Rebirth) the amalgam of all such remedies, activities and institutions required to restore the African Classical / High Culture of Ubuntu of antiquity now lost owing to Sethian Forces within and without our once great Paradise on Earth. In this greater sense, while external White Reparations are owed and should be engaged, there is a deeper and broader responsibility that we have for healing ourselves or internal reparations, which requires the restoring all of the ideals, icons, intentions and institutions, yay even the very spirit of Africa at her highest, which is a prerequisite to making any good use of Western external supposed fixes. Alas, if we fail to repair our notion of reparations my fear is that we will be guilty of conducting the greatest misappropriation of resources ever witnessed to no avail. This broader sense of reparations acknowledges and seeks to deal with enemy within and not that which is to be found without. It is recognises that if Africa was practicing Ubuntu at the spiritual, universal and interpersonal levels none of what was visited upon could have been achieved let alone last for 500 years. We were then and still are in need of now a total quality reparations experience and to this I and others have devoted our resources and our very lives. Yours in Ubuntu Alkebulan Renaissance, HE Rev. Kwame Kamau African Reparations Minister / Ambassador Mobile: [phone]

[@graybeard9942]
