"Lampblack Yellow Journalism" And The "Journalism Professors" That Enable It

TheRoot.com, the Black current event blog christened by Prof Skip Gates, is attracting certain well known "Progressive who are Black" operatives who's works I have been reading for years. In this case Jack White, former "race man" for Tim Magazine has been submitting content and making posts on other pieces of commentary that meet his approval. Of course, and it is no surprise - when he sees a piece that "keeps the ideological adversary on trial" he hears a sweet tune in his ear.

As I evaluate many of the peaces that are so pleasing to Jack White I notice that, nearly exclusively, they involve the author focusing on external conservative adversaries to the Black Progressive political machine. As the logic goes - any threat to the Black Progressive Establishment is a threat to the Black community.

As I read these articles which attempt to affix a problem and a proposed solution upon the problems of this country and in the Black community specifically the progressive-fundamentalist author - and The Root has a deep bench of them - inevitably fails to talk about THE BLACK COMMUNITY AND ITS ACTIONS but instead focuses on the forces bearing upon the Black community and their proposed leftist fix. Again the reason why the right-wing is a threat is NOT because they are "coming into our communities and blocking the doorways to our schools". Instead the main reason is because they seek to block the PROGRESSIVE fix that is little more than an expansion of government's grasp over our lives. It is often masked in a cloak of higher human consciousness and connectivity.

In as much as PROGRESSIVISM IS IN-ORGANIC we who are watching all that they do are not able to look back at the lands where progressivism is dominate and see a foreshadow of the great PROMISE that it holds when it creeps even further. Instead we are treated to a foreshadow of the great foreboding that will come if it is allowed to creep out of its present confinements, ensnaring even more human minds.

Ironically the "Lampblack Yellow Journalist" press AND its "Progressive who is Black Blogger Understudies" don't like looking inward either. They realize that for them to sell Black people on a prescription refill of what they have had us addicted to for decades - they need to enumerate the CONTINUING PAIN in our bodies but do a grand transference of culpability for the pain to the external, right-wing threat. They employ the services of the newest generation of young and hungry Black minds, fresh from college and seeking to understand the source of the head blows to the present Black community.

After having their arguments framed by reading their daily doses from Huffington Post and the well known Black "hitman" opinion writers - they are now ready to do their own thing. They now have forums of their own on:

  • TheRoot.com
  • TheGrio.com
  • TheLoop21
  • BlackAmerica Web
  • Diversity.com
  • Rolling Out.com
If all of that fails they can go to Google Blogger and start their own blog.  If they are committed enough to the ideology and the craft - the AfroSpear syndicate might pick them up.  But only if they agree to focus on the threat from Police Tasers rather than the live ammunition used by the Street Pirates that kill Black people in far, far, far (did I say "far"?)  greater quantities than anyone can LOGICALLY point to the Taser as doing.

Again it is important to look at the focus of these people however their MOTIVATION is far more telling.
With "Yoda-like" figures such as Jack White and Prof Skip Gates providing them with guidance they turn out content for mass consumption for the Black community that continues the legacy of progressive-fundamentalism that has been set down by their "griots".    The primary guiding principle that these griots impart is the phrase that doesn't even need to be spoken to be understood:   "I know how those WHITE FOLKS are and we are going to keep an eye on them so that you can be wise to their tactics".   

Of course it is important to understand that they are not talking about "Leftist-White Folks".   Since many of these enlightened intellectuals come from the "W.E.B. DuBois camp" and not the Marcus Garvey/Malcolm X bloodline of thought - they missed brother Malcolm's guidance which stated  - "Beware of the White Snarling Fox Liberal - for he operates up close and personal, with a smile on his face".

COMPETENCY DEVELOPMENT

The one, most powerful, most obvious indictment of the Black Progressive Establishment and all of its tentacles is that it fails to develop COMPETENCY within the Black community.   PERIOD.

In addition to the Snarling Fox White Liberal who insures that Black people are "well fed" per the NATIONAL commitment to "Social Justice" there is another agent that lurks within that the Lampblack Yellow Journalist loaths to talk about.    No its not the "Street Pirate".  The street pirate is the instantiation of the problem.  He is made from the "benign neglect" that he as a resource has suffered.  

Instead I am talking about the "Embedded Adult Keepers Of The Culture" who have been stoked by decades of propaganda from the key agents within the Black Establishment - most notably the Black Press.

You see our fixes will require more hands on engagement.  First there will be limits placed upon certain behaviors that are outside of an acceptable norm.  Then there will be CONFRONTATION!!!   This battle of wills will pit those who have no interest in anything other than maximizing their personal advantage against those who realize the importance of strong walls in the hallway of the maze that they are working hard to have their human resources be guided through to a productive end.

Ironically the grand struggle against CAPITALISTIC GREED at the national level - against corporations and their self interests - can be found in the INNER SPACE.  This the space in the minds of the people living within our community.   Their choice to buck the notions of COMMUNITY INTEREST and instead seek their own personal advantage must be countered by a strong REGULATORY BODY that keeps them in line. 

Please note the differences between my view of "collectivism" and theirs.  I am pushing for collectivism at the COMMUNITY LEVEL where families agree to enforce this concept upon the interested parties within their group.  There is an active participation from all so that the fortunes can be built up.   They advocate NATIONAL COLLECTIVISM where the notion of "social justice" as delivered by the masses of people through the GOVERNMENT afford "better living through chemicals and technology".   The key difference is that the masses of people are not made clear of their duties in the national system.  Instead the resources that they obtain is their "social justice RIGHT".

WHY THE LAMPBLACK YELLOW JOURNALISTS CHANGE THE SUBJECT

I am not changing the subject on the article written on TheRoot.com entitled "The Massive Resistance Movement Against Obama".  I am merely refusing to bite upon the narrative that they are giving.

With so many published ailments of the Black community that were continued while our communities were under control of "favorable people" the ascension of Barack Obama has given the Lampblack Yellow Journalists cover to switch into a defensive posture.  

Instead of making inventory of the Black community and where we stand after "taking the blue pill" for our cure - they have no intention of putting a choke point on their continued passionate support of the "reparation" of the Black community through the channels of the Democratic Party, using the METHODOLOGY of Progressivism to achieve this end.  

In one article posted on TheRoot.com or an NNPA syndicate we can read the words 'THE BLACK COMMUNITY IS IN CRISIS".  In another article in the same edition we can see that they have no intention of directly engaging the Black community for "human resource management".  Instead they prefer to constantly struggle via their ideological entrenchments to fight against the external forces that are denying the Black community our "fair share".   To those who see this pattern and are not willing to submit to the hijacking attempt - their pushback is seen in "hateful" terms.  

Ironically while the people who are the "Most Of These" are attacked for their lack of human compassion and connectedness - the truth is that the forces that have ALLOWED these conditions to happen as they marketed the inferiority of Black people are the most to blame.  They have not only an "upclose and personal" alignment with the "Least Of These" - they have set them out on a journey which told them that their VOTE is the primary means of achieving augmentation of their standard of living:

See here:
VOTE HARD!!!!

The problem is that the operatives that have orchestrated this strategy (and rest in peace Dr Ronald Walters - as you were the most intelligent among them all) is that they never factored in a strategy to PIVOT once they had control over the balance of the turf where Black people live in our highest concentrations.

They figure that they can keep stringing along Black people by keeping us externally focused.  This is why there is a muted motivation to protest over the latest Street Pirate attack, that happened on Martin Luther King Jr Blvd, that shot a Black man dead and put a few bullets into the body of a pregnant Black woman and shot an 18 month old Black baby in the foot.  Such a situation, has a WHITE shooter been the assailant that would have brought masses of Black people to the streets in protest with signs saying "YOU CAN'T DISRESPECT BLACK PEOPLE LIKE THIS!!!" and which would end up on the front page of the "Final Call", instead passes through the news cycle with a whimper from the "Lambblack Yellow Journalist Press", a BLACK MAN did the shooting.

As with OBAMA they know that if they "PROTEST HARD!!!", without regard to the race of the assailant THEY FEAR that the "White Right Wing" will see them protesting and find pleasure that the Blacks are noting the "savagery" of Black people just as White people do.  With this perverted fear - they choose to remain silent.

The truth is that White people and Black people who watch the news in Atlanta, Baltimore, Detroit, Chicago, Philadelphia - form their picture based on the mayhem and then the LIE that is expressed in the SILENCE of the Black community.  They know that had a White person done the very same thing - there would be a grand indictment.

It takes no grand exertion of intellectual gifts to see that the people who carefully orchestrate these selective responses DO NOT have as their primary interests the protection of the Black community.  Instead their goal is to publish INDICTMENTS AGAINST THEIR WHITE CONSERVATIVE ADVERSARY.  They know that this is the best source of "Black Ideological Unity" that one can foment.

The article from TheRoot.com that triggered this post is merely the latest submission in the grand diversion that has taken root in the Black progressive journalism ranks.

I am ultimately looking past the Black Establishment Operatives as I cast an eye upon the Black Rank & File to note how much of this they will take.
