“I feel my soul as vast as the world, truly a soul as deep as the deepest of rivers; my chest has the power to expand to infinity."

This is the repeated history of these shit people who call themselves white and if we are smart? We don't want to have any affiliation with them. Most of their own kids are victims of some form of abuse and this is something that has gone unnoticed or reported throughout history.

If you think that you are moving to better areas because it is viewed as a white community, you should notice that living anywhere close to these shit people are just a false sense of security because you are moving you and your family into a lions den and you and your children are the prey.

You can't claim that you love people when you don't respect them, and you can't call for political unity unless you practice it in your own relationships. And that doesn't happen out of nowhere. That's something that has got to be put into practice every day.

Transition Announcement of Dr. #MutuluShakur.

The New Afrikan People's Organization and the Malcolm X Grassroots Movement are deeply saddened to announce the transition of our beloved comrade and co-founder, Dr. Mutulu Shakur on Friday, July 7th, 2023.

Born Jeral Wayne Williams on August 8th, 1950, he was a loving father and grandfather, revolutionary acupuncturist, human rights organizer and former political prisoner of war. Mutulu's life was transformative to the many people he organized, healed, mentored and inspired. Dr. Mutulu Shakur taught us that “people struggle for liberation because they love [the] people.” He will always be remembered for his continued commitment to an independent and socialist New Afrika and for his battle cry, Straight Ahead!

Information regarding a public service will be forthcoming.

Further inquiries and questions email MXGM National Information Coordinator at Jomo.mxgm@protonmail.com

'Egbuna also presented a critique of liberalism that followed Carmichael closely. White liberals, Egbuna claimed, believed in integration. However, the price for integration was assimilation, that is to say that black people would only be accepted in white society if they renounced their own cultures and accepted the equation ‘White = Beautiful’. But in practice, Egbuna argued, the promise of integration was never fulfilled, due to the ‘unconscious’ racism of white liberals. Thus, black people in Britain were marginalized economically and socially. Much of this critique of liberalism can be found in Carmichael; for example, he was highly critical of the practice of stripping ‘non-western people’ of their culture; and of the fact that liberal arguments for integration were predicated on the notion that ‘there was nothing of value in the black community’, an attitude that he dubbed as ‘subconscious racism’. Indeed, Egbuna’s summation of his attack on the archetypal western liberal, the man who ‘wants chicken without slaughter, roses without gardening, rain-water without thunder and lightning’, is reminiscent of a passage by Frederick Douglass, which Carmichael quoted during his Roundhouse address. Carmichael compared those who argued for integration to ‘men who want crops without ploughing up the ground. They want rain without thunder or lightning.’
