World War III: The World Is A Ghetto–Part I
Tonight we will discuss the current 3rd world war as a class war on the poor and oppressed peoples, instead of a war of nation-states. We will discuss how “world wars” have always afforded oppressed and colonized peoples the opportunity to fight for their own freedom, while their governments are fighting to restore capitalism and beat down so-called “rogue nations”. Tonight, we will talk about the international class war in terms of peoples of color building a new revolutionary solidarity and liberation movement in both the so-called 3rd world and Western powers, similar to the Black Panther Party co-founder Huey P. Newton’s ideas of “Revolutionary Intercommunalism and the Right of Nations to Self-Determination” in the early 1970’s.

Also “we” (African people) are not poor. “We” are being robbed
They are talking about all poor people, regardless of their race or ethnicity.
They are being robbed too!
(~22:00) I generally agree with what the lady was saying, however, I would like to correct some of her terminology. Instead of saying “people of color” I think it is more accurate to say “non-white”. She also said the European capitalist nations are “largely” run by whites. This is also incorrect. The European capitalist nations are TOTALLY run by white people. Don’t fall for the illusion of inclusion or white power in blackkface.
(~26:00) Also she referred to the Kenyan Land and Freedom Army as the so-called “Mau Mau” This is a pejorative term the British created. We shouldn’t use colonial phrases to refer to our struggles.
I would need to research further, can you tell us what they called themselves? I did find out there is a forest in Kenya called Mau Forest. Mau Forest is a forest complex in the Rift Valley of Kenya. It is the largest indigenous montane forest in East Africa. The Mau Forest complex has an area of 273,300 hectares (675,000 acres).
I have seen conflicting stories about the origin of the name Mau Mau. Nevertheless, their official name was The Kenya Land and Freedom Army. Mau Mau has been called a pejorative term, a war cry, and an anagram for the Kikuyu term “get out, get out”. So I could be incorrect. If I am I will stand corrected.
These are former Panthers, former veterans of Black liberation who are still putting in work in their 60s, they are not Neely Fuller followers. I overstood exactly what they meant.
That is true, white people run the system, but they do have proxy racists working for them. Herman Cain is former Federal Reserve Chairman. Just the other day, Uncle Rush was on twitter pushing his Rush Card saying how he is the creator of that industry, I told him he is fronting for predatory lenders. But yes, they are the ones who created and run the system, they just have non-white people helping them.
Thanks for the reply. I believe the term proxy racists is a problematic term. I think the terms “racial showcasing” or someone being “anti-black” is better than a racist proxy. I always reject the idea of non-whites being “racists”. But I do accept that non-whites can be conditioned to display behavior that is anti-black or act in a manner that is demeaning to black people because they are black within the system of racism/white supremacy..
