Slaves – Not Immigrants Are
America’s “Teething Ring” IBy Ted Hayes, (11/23/06)
“
America is a nation of immigrants, built upon their backs.” President George W. Bush
This country was not build on the back of immigrants, but rather on the bloodied backs and shoulders of West African chattel slaves and their Black children.
The tribulations of Black peoples provide the gravitas and practicality to the ideals of liberty, freedom and democracy espoused by the American founding fathers of the
United States.
Ironically, the labor of slaves provided time and freedom for the founding fathers to think those heady thoughts of liberty.
Essentially, America “cut its” identity “teeth” on the factors of the Civil War and the struggle for Blacks to have Civil Rights according to the US Constitutional Promissory Note of the 1866 Civil Rights Acts. Without Black folks, there would not be a
United States of America.
Excluding the original indentured servants of England and the British White masters, by the time that the USA began to massively influx foreign workers, America’s foundation was already laid and constructed, upon which the immigrants added.
Not A Nation of ImmigrantsUS President, the Hon. George W. Bush, Mexican Mayor of
Los Angeles, the Hon. Antonio Villariagosa, and other public figures erroneously proclaim, that
America is “A nation of immigrants” and even built on their “backs.”
This statement is an amazing slap in the face of American Black people and anyone other honest American citizen.
These sentiments are simply made in support of illegal “immigration” invasion and colonization of the
United States by citizens of foreign nations. The “immigrants” referred to are primarily the citizens of Mesoamerican nations, especially those of the United Mexican States.
Black SilenceAlarmingly, there is a deafening silence to this deliberate attempt to re-write history in justification of illegal “immigration.”
Shamefully, African American leaders in Congress and among so-called Black activist and scholars of history are allowing these ugly sentiments to go unanswered.
The lack of response to this destructive rationale emboldens the *perpetrators of the invasion to increase their international criminal assault against Blacks and all Americans. Perhaps, these statements are so astounding, that the “leaders” are in a state of paralyzing shock that someone would actually utter such nonsense.
Revealingly, the whispered “word” in
Los Angeles, the capitol of sanctuary cities in the
USA, is “If Black people don’t care about Black people, why should anybody else?”
Clearly, this reason for the continued insult by citizens from foreign lands! Not only are the “leaders” silent, but some are actually encouraging the abuse by assuring the foreign citizens that their illegal border incursion is an extension of the Civil Rights Movement.
Surely, Mayor of “
Sanctuary
City” and President Bush are aware of the truth as to who contributed what to building
America and the significance each contributor.
America is filled with a great assortment of peoples from the *world over, but it is the triumphant struggles of the slaves and their descendents that made it desirable for immigrants to come here (legal of illegally).
* Emma Lazerous, a Jew, wrote on the Statue of Liberty, “Give me your tired, your poor, your huddled masses yearning to breathe free. The wretched refuse on your teeming shores, send these, the Homeless, the tempest tossed to me. I lift my lamp beside the golden door.”
The Moral AuthorityIt is simply a matter of historical evidence that American Blacks are the only non-native peoples north of the
Rio Grande
River border of Guadalupe Treaty who are not “immigrants”.
Immigrants come to the
USA willingly, fleeing the tyranny of their own homelands? Blacks came “ass-backward”…against their wills…not fleeing tyranny, but rather tyranny sending “these…the tempest tossed to me” in chains of slavery?
West African Black Americanized chattel slaves and their children will continue to serve as
America’s “teething ring”, especially as they rise to reclaim their legacy of freedom from the illegal colonizers.
The very fact, that Blacks are not immigrants but rather slaves they are the only ones who have the moral clarity to decide the final outcome on this border issue.

All Blacks should be hoot hollering happy that they were brought in ass backwards…instead of heathen worship in their west African nations, they found Jesus in the new world. Better to be a slave and know the lamb than help the Dutch Jews sell out your tribe.

Hey Crosshood…Shalom in Jerusalm,
What’s up homie?!?
Have you ever been to a church of Christians who are American Black US citizens…Yepper….
They be hooten and a hoolerin for Lord Jesus Christ, the King of the Jews, just as you say.
I would guess that nearly 99% of American Black US citizens, especially those who claim Jesus the LAMB of GOD As their Lord and Savior are grateful to be in America under whatever conditions instead of being “back” in Africa.
If you will notice, those Black who complain about their state in the USA are not rushing “back” to Africa. Instead, too many of us are rushing our asses up into the Prison Industrial Complex.
Someday, I am going to create a foundation of exodus…that is, any Black person (* or anyone) who is sick and tired of America, they will be provided with a oneway first class ticket to any African nation of their choice, with the promise to never return to the USA. Perhaps, you will help me with that.
Nevertheless, as far as American Black US citizen are concerned, we are probably the most USA Patriotic peoples in this country.
You see, we did and do fight in every war or military conflict that this White European decendents dominated nation found itself in, ranging from the Revelution through the War of 1812 to the Mexican American, the Civil, Spanish American, WWI, WWII, Korea, Vietnam, Barbados, Panama, Gulf I & II and prepared to do so in any other one that shows up threatening this nation.
Yet, we continued to remain abused in this beloved country of ours.
Furthermore, you will note that when we did protest oppresion in our own nation, we did not resort to violence or terror tactics as White Racist supremist did and do in the name of America.
No doubt there have been acts of violence or even racist attacks against Whites and others in America by individual Blacks, but never have we as people done such deeds.
In fact, all our demonstrations, except when wild, frustrated, mad (* not angry) young folks have rioted in the streets waging destructions, was upon our own communities.
It is to be noted that riots was only as recent as the last 50 years after hundreds of years of slavery and oppression. They are, the 1965 Watts after years of LAPD oppression; 1968 Nationals after the assination of Dr. King, Jr.; the 1992 Los Angeles after the Rodney King verdict.
Those riots were not planned orchestrated ones as was the riots of New York, and other Black dominated towns or communities in which masses of Whites strategized and literally mass murdered hundreds – thousands of Blacks in the streets, burned their homes, destroyed their property and chased them away.
We never, in the whole history of this wonderful nation did that to White folks. In fact, on numerous occasions we have protected them, even in their wars, etc.
Also, when Blacks did protest their oppressions and struggled for Civil Rights , we did it with non-violence and by the rule of law of the US Constitution, carrying American flags and praying for the Blessings of our great nation.
And you are so right about the conditions in Africa, especially West Africa from whence my ancestors came against their will in chains after witnessing their towns and villages destroyed and plundered of their wealth and love ones.
Africa is a horrible mess. Frankly, I/we are glad that we Black children of our enslaved ancestors are not dwelling in Africa, even though we came unintendedly..while immigrants from foreign were nations willing came to America.
However, as the Bible – Torah, Tenach, Holy Hebrew Scriptures teach, that what the devil meant for evil, GOD Turns it to good.
Speaking of good…that is the intent of the my blog, “Black Slaves, Not Immigrants Were/Are The Teething Ring of America”.
It was through our sufferings and with the help of our White, Brown, Red, Yellow, Jewish friends and Mercy, Grace, and Power of GOD That we overcame the evil.
As is pointed out in the article, it was the hard won freedoms thru the Civil War, in which over 6,00,000 young White men from the Union North and Confederate South, plus about 38,000 young Black men, gave their lives to end the idea of slavery in the USA.
That war for freedom, was followed by 100 years of the Civil Rights struggle.
It is the benifits that were derived from this fights, that you, me, and foreignor enjoy in this land to this day.
It is this freedom that immigrant the world over are rushing to America, even the hordes of illegal “immigrants” from Mesoamerica, particularly Mexico.
The purpose of the article is to make it clear, that while we are not against American White US citizens, our brethren, but rather we are making it clear to the illegal “immigrant” invasion that is systematically attempting to destroy what you and I, both our ancestors, despite whatever side of the racial divide issues that we came down on, fought against each other and together with each other in order to have the great and beautiful nation that the invaders don’t respect.
In fact, I believe that, we American White and Black US citizens are going to come together and recieve the long overdue healings from the wounds that we both have suffered from the deeds of our ancestors. We will be “One Nation Under GOD”
Finally, of course, there were Dutch Jews, and even Bostonian Jews, who capitalized of the inslavement of my ancestors…However, European White Roman Catholics and Protestants were in on the “kill” as well. Nobody was innocent!
But most significant in this international “gang-bang” on West Africans, was/is the participation of Arab and African Muslims of Islam, and of course, the very Black African leaders themselves were the greatest of all the offenders, even as they are to this very day.
I reject the notions or accusation that we West Africans were living righteous lives in some sort of Jungle Paradise of peace and prosperity with our God, until the nasty ole’ White man came and snatched us out of our lands. That sentiment is totally proposterous hogwash.
We West African Blacks, destroyed ourselves and have nobody to blame but ourselves. It upon this understanding that GOD Will Redeem us.
Well, enough of this diatribe! Thank you for your comment.
Please continue to come to my blog and comment, or even ask very hard questions and I will sincerely attempt to answer you. Also, pass my blog on down the line to others.
Remember, my brother, it is my sentiments and attempt to bring about the healing between us American White and Black US citizens, and simultaneously stop the invasionof illegal “immigrants” and drive out the invader from our beloved United States of America.
“Blog-baby-blog”
Let the healing begin….

why do you go the long way around the barn the get to the front door? You once said God instructed you to become homeless. Did God tell you to align yourself with the Minutemen? Did God tell you to fight against illegal immigration the same way he told you to fight against homelessness?Did God tell you to leave your family many years ago when they needed you the most? Did God tell you to support the worst, most evil and corrupt government in the history of this country and the world?
The sooner we evolve beyond this Judeo-Christain-Islamic world founded upon racism and hatred the sooner we will find out how to live and survive together. Some of us have such big egos it often prevents us from admitting our mistakes and moving towards the light.
