GOVERNMENT ATTEMPT
TO ATTEMPT TO SHUT IT DOWN!

DREWRYVILLE, VIRGINIA - To the surprise of few people, the order has been given by NYC to clear Occupiers from the private park they have established as ground zero for the movement that is sweeping the world today: The Occupy Wall Street Protestors in NYC representing the “99%.” This will be an attempt because no one can predict what the varied characters of protestors campting there will do to defend themselves.
On the pretext to clean the park, the Mayor of the city told the police to remove everyone from the park at 7 am Friday morning.
I have stated previously that Black people, at this time, have a really good vantage point in our long progression to Freedom: that vantage point is we can engage ourselves in Proper work while crisis after crisis visit "the system.” We have the luxury of looking on, if we are also working properly. Sometimes it is really entertaining, and funny, but not comical; comical in the ironic sense because given our terrible condition, each crisis could easily justifiably be precipitated by us.
" The "Proper Work" does not include becoming an integral part of ANY movement that does not carry our core issues as the prime demand. But of a certainty it does not afford us a chance to miss an opportunity to advance our cause when opportunity presents itself. Which is invariably the case in any crisis where there is oppression.
EVERY CRISIS NOT PRECIPITATED BY US
IS A DISTRACTION FROM CONCENTRATION ON US
Such an opportunity presented itself early on in the Occupy Wall Street Protest but it was a small window within which we could have acted. We didn't act in time, but there will be another chance....soon if recent events in America are indicators. Crisis after crisis is coming to bear on this country - whether hurricane, oil spill, Tea Party driven, Occupy Wall Street, Mass murder, Qur’an burning, or whatever, the experimental society where we live in captivity is regularly rocked to its core.
We can identify with the crisis or we can take advantage of the potential distraction from us and do some real good,. Opportune things in preparation for the coming time when we, Black people, will once again precipitate a Crisis in the United States of America.
We are long overdue, but the Rulers of the system have worked extremely hard to suppress us - many times in ways that the oppressed hardly recognize as oppression and suppression...packing us in prison and police brutality are just tips of the iceberg. All high tech policing methodologies are used and perfected against Black people. There is little doubt here!
I think when we do precipitate a Crisis in America again, we'll be better prepared because SOME of us are doing Proper work . I have no thoughts to share about what to do now as the government prepare to STOP the Occupy Wall Prrotest - except enjoy the show and hope when the Wall street people realize who they are dealing with in this country, they'll seek some advice from the ones here that live in crisis day to day..........IF YOU LOVE BLACK PEOPLE YOU HAVE REGULAR HEART BREAKS...not meaning you are not living in peace, enjoying the gift of life.
If this sounds contradictory to you, please consult your friendly Learned Kemitian MAATI scholar and ask for some advice about Amen, Ausar, Tehuti, Sekher, MAAT, HeruKhuti, Heru, HetHeru, Sebek, Auset and Geb.
