Teach White Supremacy – Install the oppressors’ narrative

After the historical memory of the African population has been erased and replaced with a white supremacy narrative, the African population is placed in a position where it begins to reject its own image and becomes less African in conscious behavior.

African people who have been victimized by these processes tend to identify themselves primarily with European and Arab cultural institutions in religion, language, nation state, etc. These behaviors are passed down to their descendants, even though they may not have experienced actual physical oppression.

Amos Wilson (1941 – 1995) author and professor of psychology, said white supremacy myths continue to alter the consciousness of Black people today by giving us fabricated data: false history, false knowledge and false narratives. Therefore, our ability to think and act in our own interests has been impaired because we have become confused about what knowledge is, who it belongs to, and how it should be used.

Control the Institutions of Socialization – preventing African people from re-learning, teaching and practicing their own culture and cultural narrative

Since culture plays the role of gluing a group of people together, for the oppressors to maintain control over Black people they had to separate them from their own culture, Hilliard said.

In doing so, the European and the Arab were able to prevent group unity among enslaved or colonized Africans. This act weakened the African population and made them more controllable.

Chinweizu , author of “The West and the Rest of Us: White Predators, Black Slavers, and the African Elite,” wrote: “The central objective in decolonizing the African mind is to overthrow the authority that alien traditions exercise over the African. This demands the dismantling of white supremacist beliefs, and the structures which uphold them, in every area of African life. It must be stressed, however, that decolonization does not mean ignorance of foreign traditions; it simply means denial of their authority and withdrawal of allegiance from them.”

Control of Wealth – Prevent Black people from controlling the economic resources necessary to finance their own development

By controlling the natural resources and means of production, Europeans, Arabs and now Chinese are able extract the benefits of what would naturally be African people’s wealth. Black people are therefore unable to use their resources to build institutions and organizations that would develop and protect their interests at home and abroad. This relationship with non-Africans keeps the African population in a perpetual dependent role of beggar and borrower.

Today a new scramble for Africa marks the beginning of the latest chapter in the plunder of the continent. The United States, Europe, China and others are seeking to consolidate their grip on Africa’s oil, its minerals, and other resources, all worth more every day because of a massive boom in the price of oil and raw materials. Like earlier ventures, the new rush for Africa is not only about profits, but also control of strategic resources.

Physical Segregation – Prevent Black people from gaining access to developmental resources otherwise made available to the oppressors’ group

In societies where the oppressor lived in relatively close proximity with the African population, strategies were created to prevent the Black population from gaining access to the same quality of institutional benefits.

Racial segregation is generally outlawed today in most nations, however the practice still exists through social norms, even when there is no strong individual preference for it. Segregation is maintained today by means ranging from discrimination in school zoning and hiring, in the rental and sale of housing to certain races, to vigilante violence.

. I was taught all of the rebellions mentioned in the western hemisphere and that was thirty odd years ago. I got a B for history.
And they are part of the CXC and Cape sylabusses. They are discussed in details. So I can assume u never attended history class in Jamaica.

There is two statues to Bussa in Bridge town a dramatic one on a roundabout, one downtown. And add the fact that he was a driver/ranger the man who ran down slaves and was trusted with fire arms. Is he swung the whip.

Boukman was factor and driver an obeahman and may have been a Muslim, a mixed, a recaptured maroon, or as per my tradition a pardo. Tossaint offered to reimpose slavery on Haiti if his father Napoleon Bonaparte would spare his life and he ran a plantation set his owner free. Killed his adopted son gave his owner a pension when she lived in the US. This was before the settlement.

The interesting thing is that all of the western slave rebellions u mentioned was led by house slaves or drivers contradicting Malcolm X.

The zanj rebellions is some thing I reas d on.





As for the Anglo Ashanti war we were taught of the battle honours of the WIR on poppy day. And the remnants of the maroons who were transported to Nova Scotia fought there.


I wrote essays on most of them in fact.

Anglo-Asante Wars (Ghana)

Nowhere in West Africa was there a longer tradition of confrontation between African and European powers than in the Gold Coast (present-day Ghana), between the Asante Kingdom and the British. England’s efforts to extend its economic and political influence into the interior of the Gold Coast were met with stiff resistance from the Asante.

For nearly a hundred years (1806-1901), the Asante Kingdom defended its interests and freedom through a series of victories in battles with the British and other Europeans. The British finally defeated the Asante with superior weaponry and Nigerian warriors in Queen Mother Yaa Asantewaa’s War of the Golden Stool in 1901.

This victory paved the way for British colonial rule over the entire Gold Coast, but the Queen Mother managed to keep the Golden Stool safe from the British.

Course you know what precipitated it.....an ethnic cleanse of the Fanti by the Assante....thye accused them of grave robbing...

the Dutch were the ally of the the Ashanti.....the Fanti the british.... and the Ashanti were vermently against the end of the slave trade..... they continued to "sell" men to the Dutch to use as soldiers in the Far East.... particularly Indonesia....

I would make the reading of The Black Jacobins a must do.... it is inspirational and has been to all anti colonial struggle... unfortunately no one notices the lessons of post victory....

The first non native slave rebellion imho was a one man insurrection... Estivanco..... I like the story he set up his own death to fool the spanish and gain his freedom.... He is reputed to be a black face native american spirit among the Pueblos....

He was also born in Morocco.. And exlored most of the south central continental US.... He spent 4 years as a slave with three speniahs companions one going by the name of Head of a Cow in Louisiana....Yes the enslavers were native americans.. though there is some doubt that they actuakkt

The rebellion by Yerga, in Vera Cruz was interesting in that it was a multi generational... and ended with a Maroon treaty that became the standard..... Even before the Juan De Bolas whre they promised to hunt down runaways...

The Demarara rebellion was led by a carpenter father and son....Quimina the fatehr and the son...

Denmark Vesey was a carpenter, who was a body servant of his master... won a lotery bought his freedom


Bussa rebellion fascinates me... He was a ranger/ driver and so underdtood the forcs ranged against him... there would be no possibility of a maroon settlement... He would have known total victory or death....

Oge and Chavennes were both rich plantation owners who led rebellion...

two slave rebellions in the US was led by whites... the Boxley rebellion and the John Brown insurrection.... the latter was not supported by Fredrick Douglass who but by a number of house slaves....

My issue is that rebellion is central to the carribean and latin american colonial Milieu.... as per the type of colonies they were...the type of settlement... the aim of most plantation owners was not to settle in Jamaica or Barbados... but to go back home.. the US was the owners were more likelyto be resident in the US....The rebellion is central to the carribean narrative... it was the only game in town... there was fewer withes a greater proportion of slaves.. that is a another common cxc essay....i know i wrote one on this subject....

Here os a list a stone commemorating Bussa... I forgot Nanny Gregg... she cost £130 pounds and was literate... this suggests that she was skilled in something an not a feild slave....Note the cooper and the Mason.. these were skilled men who were not in the feild....

This is Commeration to Bussa. In Barbados. My pet peeve is Jamaicans including my self know the big strokes of history but not local district history.

The above commeruative plaque illustrates my point as to Malcolm x verbal vinaigrette....



A point is in the carribean resistance to slavery is taught in the carribean Slaves who ended Slavery by Richard Hart is well known a lot of the concepts are used in educational text books... Also taught is mercantilism, european rivalry and hegemony as related to the western hemisphere as well as the drivers for colonialisation. And these are just as important as to the developmental issues.

We were taught slave laws evolution of slavery from the encomienda to emancipation. For three years I wrote an essay on western history every week as home work as well as test essays and exam essaysit covered all of these issues and more. Alot of this will be dismissed as eurocentric i disagree it was caribean centric. So I don't buy lack of information.

Howevever I don't think it is appreciated because history is politically reduced to fairy tales of good vs bad not the compromises of every day politics. Not even good fairy tales but Disney simplistic retells......This is not worthy of the completixity as how history was laid out in the texts.....Nor to the brutal calculus of survival, rebellion and love for ones children that drove the individuals who were our ancestors..

My issue was too many teachers in Jamaica are Christians and missed the central thesis of the syllabus. And their veiws were coloured by this prejudice. It makes no sence teach slavery when it is justified by the propponents as a method to deliver the savage to Jesus, while starting the day with a prayer to the same white christ. How can a teacher teach Santo Domingo when the best reference material is from a Trotskyite/ left of Fabian socialist perspective(The BlackJacobins, Slaves who ended Slavery,From Columbus to Castro all are in this category)....

.Rationalise it as much as one tries u cannot teach carribean history from a judeo chrsitian stand point in that way. Most slave rebellion had at its centre Obeah......or Islam in Brazil these issues are ignored. There are exceptions Nat Turner etal ....How do u then teach Boukman or the Mali revolts in Brazil or Tacky, Nanny Cudjoe all of whom were non Christians.

How can u teach Cudjoe who grovelled and call Guthrie his own Master....? Or Tossaint who tried to betray his revolution from a black perspective? Denial and dismissal? Or Bussa the slave driver and man hunter? I ain't smart enough to, and am reknown as stupid sellout....

But this was decades ago. I tried to drop history wasmthreathened with expulsion.

What I was taught was just a prism the facts were good the interrelation was less than adequate, but it is up to me...

The above commeruative plaque illustrates my point as to Malcolm x verbal vinaigrette....

it's possible malcolm x was speaking from his historical perspective as an african-american...
most of the biggest slave revolts in the u.s. were betrayed by house captives;

i agree that trying to paint history in terms of heroes & villains can be problematic...the whole story is usually far more nuanced...
one can also go to the other extreme & paint historical figures as vacillating amoral schemers...the truth is also more nuanced--- one has to take into account other factors when judging the motives of historical figures...
