“The [aAmw] has at least three distinct incomparable traits that seem to be genetically transmitted: 1) predatory behavior toward people, and their land; 2) a predilection for senseless destruction of nature and people; and, 3) the ability to persuade [Kmtyw] to support and protect them against their own interest” – Nana Bobby E. Wright

The question then is how can we protect ourselves from predatory behavior? If a ppl aren’t predatory themselves, how then can said ppl equip themselves to fight against predatory behavior no matter the form it takes?
Can we only be reactionary?

@nonmwense-abibi Great question.
My thoughts
The following Nana Chancellor Williams quote provides the first steps in answering your question
https://www.abibitumi.com/members/tlpauley/activity/562608/
A couple key points from his quote are – “re-education of [Kmtyw]” and “A possible solution of racial crises can begin…only when [Kmtyw] fully realize this central fact in their lives: the [aAm] is their Bitter Enemy”
Since the masses of Kmtyw have been mis-educated, we will need a mass re-educational system that can transform enough Kmtyw to where the aAmw can be confronted on multiple levels.
This will take sxm km (Black Power)

@snKwaku Here’s another way to look at it: Before the masses of Kmtyw were mis-educated – before the Maafa – how well equiped were we to properly evaluate and fight against the aAmw?
In other words, is hindsight the only forebearer to this call of action?

@NonMwenSe Your question seems to deal with time as a straight line as opposed to time as a cycle. We have gone through the cycle of dealing with and driving out aAmw again and again, successfully achieving the Construction of Black Civilization (book plug). When we properly understand the cycle that we are in, when we Sankɔfa and recognize who we are (common ancestry), who they are (common enemy), and that we have returned to drive out isfet and restore Ma’at, then we, as we have done before will work to build the sxm km (Black Power) required. As Ọheneba says, “Ma’at don’t live off just one good day, it’s a continual balancing play” – as even in classical Kmt, you will find some who, in the midst of achieving Black Power, struggled with the continual work of driving out isfet in themselves -> home -> community and would crack the door open for the embodiment of isfet (aAmw) and allow them back in. I think of it like gardening, your work is continual pruning, providing sun, water, wind, if you let up – you will see the cycle of decay start up.
