In light of a heart-wrenching story on Raw Story about how terrified these young Melanoid students are about the possibility of them getting killed by white extremists on campus, many of the same racists have taken to Twitter, letting their presence-and racist intentions–be felt by all who cares to read. On Twitter, there has been a hashtag named #BlacksOnCampus, which has been trending heavy on the popular social media site. However, white supremacist trolls have begun to use the hashtag in their own way, resulting to name calling and an outright display of disrespect towards the brave Melanoid young men who have stood brave in the face of the adversity. Here are just a few of the Tweets left by the trolls:

As you can see, white supremacists are in an uproar over the simple fact that the Black football athletes of the University of Missouri realized that their purpose in society meant much more than just scoring touchdowns and sacking quarterbacks. It’s no secret that for years, Black basketball and football athletes have been accepted–and even celebrated–under the condition that they remained seen and not heard. This means that they’ve been expected to be good athletes, marginal students, and racially transparent.

In conjunction with these laughable expectations placed upon Black athletes by members of the dominant society, it should be noted that in the competitive hierarchy of the NCAA, the Mizzou football team is part of the Southeastern Conference (SEC).

This collegiate sports conference has long been recognized as ground zero for its athletic programs which recruit young and impressionable Black males from the rural areas of places of the South such as Alabama and Mississippi, notoriously racist coaches (who are celebrated to this day) like Paul “Bear” Bryant & Adolph Rupp, and last but not least, the extensive network of the “good ol’ boys” who seek out young able-bodied Black “bucks” to lead their respective athletic programs to the promised land (which is a national championship).

In hindsight, after knowing all of this about the University of Missouri’s athletic conference affiliation and its home state’s recent history of racial calamity, it comes as no surprise that this campus was primed and ready for this past week’s series of events to occur in the first place.

The strong move silent, and the weak cause riots.

You’ve heard the old saying above, right? Of course, this isn’t indicative of ALL members of Black Society, because the occasional uprising is merely the voice of the unheard and downtrodden Melanoid people who seek outlets to vent their pent up frustrations with the injustices served by systematic white supremacy. What’s disappointing, however, are the Melanoid people who choose to participate in movements with ulterior objectives such as the Black Lives Matter movement, and “Hands up, don’t shoot”.

Over the course of our colorful history, symbolism HAS been used, yet it was used strategically. One prime example of this was when the Honorable Marcus Garvey’s UNIA opted to design a flag that would serve as a biting rebuttal to the dehumanizing song released in 1900, titled: Every Race Has A Flag But The Coon. On another occasion, Montgomery, Alabama’s bus boycotts in the mid 1950’s (in response to the Rosa Parks arrest) were a symbolic, yet action-based gesture that eventually crippled the local economy in the state’s capital city.

In 2015, many (not all) of our movements have been reduced to the level of empty promises and hot air-powered rhetoric. In spite of this, there is no one particular group in Black Society to blame, because this issue isn’t limited to just one group. For future reference, let us as Melanoid people be mindful about co-signing movements that may appear to be Black on paper, yet anti-Black in its truest essence. Movements with catchy slogans come and go, yet codes of conduct have true staying power.

The white supremacists have shown us that they feel that they can do anything they want to Black people and we can’t do anything about it. And they have the military muscle (police,swat,national guards,etc) to back them up. Many Black people woefully accept this narrative because trying to replace they system of white supremacy with a system of justice is indeed quite challenging.

The primary way the system of white supremacy is used to control and disempower Black people is through the economy of the white supremacists. So the way for Black people to empower themselves is through economics. Melanoid people are going to have to utilize the income they use to empower every other group (particularly groups who turn around and disrespect Black people in return) to empower themselves.

The main thing Melanoid people should do is start creating businesses within their communities. Dr Claud Anderson has several books such as Black Labor White Wealth and Powernomics,on how Black people can accomplish an economic base.

The first thing Melanoid people can do this week is boycott the Black Friday shopping day. If we are going to live in a system where white supremacists can murder Black people with impunity, we need to send a message. If people who murder Black people are protected by other suspected white supremacist  law enforcement,media, jury, financial contributors,and political representatives,then Black people should limit the circulation of our dollars to these institutions.

So this Black Friday do not spend money anywhere in the United States unless you are going to shop with a Melanoid establishment.
