The students marched to UC Berkeley, where they voiced their displeasure for what had just transpired at their school that day. According to reports, a student was found creating a memo in the school’s library that read, KKK Forever Public Lynching December 9th 2015. Once questioned about committing such an act, the male student confessed to doing so.

In reaction to the threat that was made via computer on Thursday, the school has opted to use the exact same date of the threat’s manifestation (Dec. 9) to allow the Melanoid students of the school the opportunity to openly discuss issues of race with school district officials. Possible solutions to this issue will also be proposed among the students.

The Black Student Union of Berkeley High School posted the following Tweet in response to the terroristic threat made that day.

The Vaccine-Injury Awareness League are gathering in front of the Centers for Disease Control (CDC) to demand mercury-free vaccines. Extensive studies have long linked mercury to debilitating–and deadly–side effects, such as various forms of cancer in adults, and autism in vaccinated newborns.

Among the people in attendance this weekend will be Robert F. Kennedy Jr., who delivered a pre-recorded message in regards to the disturbing trend of the negative side effects of vaccines. The video message of Kennedy was viewed by a gathering of a predominately Black crowd at a follow-up meeting to October 10th’s historic “Justice Or Else” rally. Kennedy mentioned that these poisonous vaccines are being dumped into Black areas across the country, with many young Melanoid children experiencing autism at an unprecedented rate. The majority of those affected by these harmful vaccines are Black boys, which could also very well explain the correlation with the miseducation (and eventual incarceration due to being denied opportunities during their formative years) they receive all too often.

Kennedy also went on to state that mercury is 1,000 times more fatal than lead, and that the “problem with African-Americans are the mercury-filled vaccines that make their way into your communities. This is similar to the infamous and wicked Tuskegee syphillis experiment exposed by my uncle in the 1970s.”

In a related story that appears to be more than coincidental, members of the white Jewish community have expressed the need for vaccines with kosher ingredients to ensure that it not only infringes upon their religious beliefs, but also keeps them exempt from being exposed to the mercury-filled vaccines.

Here is the video of Robert F. Kennedy’s message.

Ida Lockett did just that.

The mother of a 5-year-old Melanoid boy was shocked and disgusted by what she saw while assembling his birthday gift, which was purchased from Toys R Us. The contents of the packaging were something she’d never saw before. From first glance, the toy that her son was to receive as a gift appeared to be a pirate ship, inhabited by small figurines that were included with the toy ship. However, one of the figurines in the box has dark skin, and comes with a slave collar. In fact, page 13 of the toy’s instruction manual gives a clear description on how to place the collar on the neck of the dark-skinned figurine.

This is the instruction manual photo which shows how to place the slave collar on the figurine’s neck.

“It’s definitely racist,” the boy’s mother Ida Lockett told CBS Sacramento. “It told my son to put a slave cuff around the black character’s neck, and then to play with the toy.” Upset, Lockett had more to say about the racist overtones of the toy’s features.

“You cannot have this specific accessory and call it anything else. The fact that you can Google it, look it up, say what it is — it’s a slave collar.” The toy not only is dark skinned, but is also wearing torn clothing, as if to imply that it has been a P.O.W (Prisoner Of War) captured in the infamous Slave Trade. The toy is also barefoot, and has dark colored coarse hair, which resembles the locs originally worn by people of African descent. Check out the video below for more on the story.

Here is a link to the story.

It was the faculty members suggestion that the Melanoid children mix and mingle with the white children in the school so that they don’t live up to this woman’s perceived stereotype. Celeste Jordan, a parent of one of the children affected by the accusations, mentioned that her daughter was so visibly hurt by the incident that she had to be checked out of school early that day.

According to Celeste, her daughter has also been traumatized by the incident to the point where she is having trouble sleeping, has emotional outbursts, and wonders “whether her white friends will still like her.” Guidance staff counseling has been made available to those students affected in the occurrence. Upset at the entire ordeal, Jordan says she feels that counseling alone isn’t enough to rectify the derogatory statement made by the school’s employee.

Children of other races are never ordered to go out of their way to accept Black children into their social circles, as they shouldn’t be. Why are our children expected to do so?

A 12-year-old Black boy was suspended from St. Gabriel Consolidated School, a catholic school in Glendale, Ohio. The reason for his suspension: allegedly staring at a white girl.

When the boy’s parents filed a suit to Hamilton County (OH) Pleas court in attempts to get the suspension erased (because he wasn’t given due process), a judge denied the claim, continuing to uphold the suspension as originally mandated. It turns out that the suspension was unnecessary in the first place, because the boy had been involved in a “staring game” with the white girl. What makes the suspension even more questionable was that the girl was visibly enjoying the game. “I never knew she was scared because she was laughing”, he wrote in a letter of apology to the school…”I understand I done the wrong thing that will never happen again. I will start to think before I do so I am not in this situation (again).”

Court documents show that the white girl “felt fearful”. Although the girl made these claims of being intimidated by the 12-year-old Black boy, it appears that she has been known for intimidating students herself. The same girl that accused my son of this act of perception of intimidation, aggressively poured milk on someone else’s lunch. When she did that there was no penalties for that. She received nothing for that,” said Candice Tolbert, the mother of the 12-year-old boy.

Here’s the link to the story.

Bogus methods of discipline such as these are noting more than white supremacist tactics used to deny our children of the education they deserve. It also invokes the centuries-old paranoia of the white female in distress who is “under attack” by the Melanoid male. It is up to us to ensure that our children are protected, and properly educated.

In the following link, the video clip shows the interview with the boy’s parents, and his mother’s concern regarding her son’s suspension.

EDITOR’S NOTE: Please follow the link in the name above to help us educate and empower our youth.

Cormega Copening, 17, of Fayatteville, North Carolina, had to strike a plea deal with authorities to ensure that he avoided a 10-year prison sentence. The charge? Child pornography, yet in a very strange way. Copening, who was 16 at the time, took nude photos of himself and ‘sexted’ them to his girlfriend, also a 16-year-old Black teen at the time.

Although the teenage girl is now 17 as well, she was also charged with multiple counts of making and possessing photos of their naked bodies. She took a plea deal in both July and earlier in September (of this year). The conditions of them both avoiding any jail time would be for them both to work  30 hours of community service, and will be banned from having a cellphone for a year. In doing so, their records are cleared and they will avoid registering as sex offenders.

The system of racism/white supremacy has reached so far and wide in its efforts to murder–or incarcerate–as many members of Black Society as possible…even if it means conjuring up outlandish charges against two young Black kids who, like many other teens of all backgrounds and ethnic origin, have engaged in rambunctious behavior a time or two. Mostly, this is only a result of “raging hormones”  in conjunction with the fact that the human brain (particularly the male brain) doesn’t fully develop until the age of 25, which makes it difficult for a teenager to properly rationalize.

It’s apparent that Cormega Copening and his 16-year-old girlfriend at the time are both contrite for their actions. What Copening and the girl deserve at this point is a clean slate, and a fair shot at experiencing adulthood unscathed by burdensome legal woes…like the majority of their teenage peers of the dominant society are able to do.

Melanoid children will be in the mix, as millions of school-age youths–from pre-K to 12th grade–either enroll school for the first time, or enter their final years as high school students full of great anticipation of what their futures hold in their post secondary years. Much has been said of the orchestrated miseducation of our youth in the schools, yet many in the dominant society choose to acknowledge the unjust treatment of Melanoid boys and girls who are being deprived of a quality education in many instances. Here are a few ways to proactively ensure your child’s school experience will benefit them as much as possible.

1. Tutoring

When it comes to excellence, academics–just like any other skill or area of interest–can be a challenge for children looking to advance through their school with flying colors. Tutoring can be extremely beneficial to students because of their opportunity to receive more one-on-one assistance with their learning materials

2. Mentorship

As the old saying goes, “Each one teach one.” As Melanated people who have attained a certain level of knowledge (in any field) that can prove to be beneficial to future generations of Black youths, it is our responsibility to utilize that expertise to see to it that Black youths are nourished with quality information that will enable them to eventually become empowered adults who will go on to “reach down and pull up” succeeding generations of Black youths themselves.

3. Implementation of Culture

Every school year (on every grade level), it’s a guaranteed bet that your Melanoid child will be bombarded with the canned script in the curriculum which  forces them to study oft-romanticized slave owning presidents, “brillaint” historical figures who openly despised Melanoid people, and bloodthirsty dictators who wanted to see the total extinction of Melanoid people on a mass scale. This school year,  give them the gift of their culture by letting them know they were more than history’s pariahs.

4. Expand their horizons.

Unfortunately, members of Black Society are the least likely of all races in America to travel. This being the case, this means that our children are more likely to not travel as well. Because they are in their formative years, children have an enormous appetite for learning and developing as people. It’s only right that their early experiences be shaped by giving them the chance to make the world their oyster, as soon as possible.

5. Give them “The Talk”.

Many parents in Black Society share a common sentiment: Their children mean the world to them, and the thought of their child not returning home after being murdered by race soldiers can be terrifying. Because of these dangerous times we live in as Melanoid people, our precious children must be informed of the dangers as young as possible. Let them know how much you love and appreciate them. In addition to giving them heartfelt commentary, tell them the truth about the system of white supremacy that we live in. Also, giving your children self defense classes wouldn’t hurt either.

Dr. Michael H. Casson Jr. is an associate professor of economics at Delaware State University. He is the author of a book titled: Enwan the Entrepreneur: Enwan’s First Savings Account.  The book features Enwan, a young Melanoid boy who learns valuable lessons about money management from his father, who is an entrepreneur. After deciding to follow his father’s footsteps in entrepreneurship, Enwan realizes the value of saving his money, so he decides to open up a savings account.

Cover of the book.

Dr. Casson illustrates the importance of his book, by explaining the following on the university’s website: “In our community, we are lacking in a keen understanding of financial literacy and business economics. To progress in our community, we need to look at educating our youth about how to manage money.” The book is an easy read (and must have) for children of all ages, and it is an awesome tool for your Melanoid child to create a foundation for financial literacy. It can be purchased at amazon.com.
