Quote of the day.....

True generosity consists precisely 

in fighting to destroy 

the causes which nourish false charity. 

False charity constrains 

the fearful and subdued, 

the “rejects of life” to extend 

their trembling hands. 

True generosity lies in striving 

so that these hands — 

whether of individuals or entire peoples — 

need be extended less and less in supplication, 

so that more and more 

they become human hands 

which work and, working, 

transform the world.

--- Paulo Freire.
Pedagogy of the oppressed.

Quote of the day...

Falsehood of the tongue leads to 

that of the heart, and in time depraves 

all its good dispositions.

---Thomas Jefferson.(1743-1826) 

US Founding Father, 3rd US President.
Drafted the Declaration of Independence.

Chapter 1

Indeed, the interests of the oppressors lie in 

'changing the consciousness of the oppressed, 

not the situation which oppresses them.

-- Paulo Freire.
Pedagogy of the oppressed. 

Quote of the day.....

If you make people think they're thinking, 

they'll love you; 

But if you really make them think, 

they'll hate you.

― Don Marquis.

Quote of the day...

The courts are not bound by mere forms, 

nor are they to be misled by mere pretenses. 

They are at liberty — 

indeed, are under a solemn duty — 

to look at the substance of things, 

whenever they enter upon the inquiry 

whether the legislature has transcended 

the limits of its authority. 

If therefore, a statute 

purporting to have been enacted 

to protect the public health, 

the public morals, or the public safety, 

has no real or substantial relation 

to those objects, or 

is a palpable invasion of rights secured by 

the fundamental law, 

it is the duty of the courts to so adjudge, and 

thereby give effect to the Constitution.

The sheep....and the shepherd...

The fact that in any given condition

The people are left with no choice 

Other than to trust their rulers is

What makes.....

The irresponsibility of those 

Who choose to Rule....

An irreconcilable sin.

Extreme rendition and torture-by-proxy.....

Although he initially tried to assert his innocence, 

he eventually confessed to anything 

his tormentors wanted him to say. 

“You just give up, he said. 

“You become like an animal.”

---Maher Arar.

A Canadian engineer sent Syria.
A year later, in October, 2003, 
Arar was released without charges. … 
Imad Moustapha, the Syrian Ambassador 

in Washington, announced 

that his country had found no links between 
Arar and terrorism. Arar, it turned out, 
had been sent to Syria on orders from 

the U.S. government, under a secretive 

program known as “extraordinary rendition.” 
This program had been devised as 

a means of extraditing terrorism suspects 

from one foreign state to another for 
interrogation and prosecution. 
Critics contend that the unstated purpose of 
such renditions is to subject the suspects to 
aggressive methods of persuasion 
that are illegal in America—including torture.

The Stanford Experiment.........

In dehumanizing others..........

We can not expect to hold them

To any known standards.

         *         *        *        *         *

Dehumanization, 

although a concrete historical fact,

is not a given destiny but 

the result of an unjust order 

that engenders violence in the oppressors, 

which in turn dehumanizes the oppressed.

---Paulo Freire.

Quote of the day...

What important truth do..... 

very few people agree with you on?

― Peter Thiel.

To be parasiting and para sitting.....The story of the hand that feeds...

Since the dawn of human civilizations

Agriculture labor is the most exploited 

Human resource that is still at 

The bottom of food chain.

Quote of the day.....

[I]t is a truth which the experience of 

all ages has attested, that the people are 

always most  in danger, when 

the means of injuring their rights are 

in the possession of those of whom 

they entertain the least suspicion.

By merit....

Those of who often argue 

On behalf of merit are

Mostly the One's......... 

That seeks privilege 

In one fashion or another.

Bi polar.....

Expressions in human intelligence

are not an anomaly... 

Either as Good or Bad...

Like good cop ...bad cop.

Quote of the day....

It is an ancient truth......

that freedom cannot be legislated 

into existence,

so it is no less obvious.... 

that freedom cannot be censored 

into existence.

And any who act as if freedom's defenses 

are found in suppression and 

suspicion and fear confess 

a doctrine that is alien to America.

-- Dwight D. Eisenhower
(1890-1969), 34th US President, WWII General

Quote of the day....

If men, through fear, fraud, or mistake, 

should in terms renounce or

give up any natural right, 

the eternal law of reason and 

the grand end of society would absolutely 

vacate such renunciation. 

The right to freedom being 

the gift of Almighty God, 

it is not in the power of man

to alienate this gift and 

voluntarily become a slave.

-- Samuel Adams
(1722-1803), was known as 
the "Father of the American Revolution.

Homeostasis........

Where there is prejudice

There is neither learning 

Nor teaching. 

War....

One forgets there are 

Other ways to die.

Quote of the day.....

We have to emancipate ourselves 

before we can emancipate others.

---Marcus Garvey.

                     *         *         *        *         *

Full Quote:

We are going to emancipate ourselves from 

mental slavery because..... 

whilst others might free the body, 

none but ourselves can free the mind. 

Mind is your only ruler, sovereign. 

The man who is not able to develop and use 

his mind is bound to be the slave of 

the other man who uses his mind…. 

Marcus Garvey, Nova Scotia, October 1937.

Lyrics:

Old pirates, yes, they rob I;

Sold I to the merchant ships,

Minutes after they took I

From the bottomless pit.

But my hand was made strong

By the hand of the Almighty.

We forward in this generation

Triumphantly.

Won’t you help to sing

These songs of freedom?

‘Cause all I ever have:

Redemption songs,

Redemption songs.


Emancipate yourselves from mental slavery;

None but ourselves can free our minds.

Have no fear for atomic energy,

‘Cause none of them can stop the time.

How long shall they kill our prophets,

While we stand aside and look? Ooh!

Some say it’s just a part of it:

We’ve got to fulfill the Book.


Won’t you help to sing

These songs of freedom?

‘Cause all I ever have:

Redemption songs,

Redemption songs,

Redemption songs.


Emancipate yourselves from mental slavery;

None but ourselves can free our mind.

Wo! Have no fear for atomic energy,

‘Cause none of them-a can-a stop-a the time.

How long shall they kill our prophets,

While we stand aside and look?

Yes, some say it’s just a part of it:

We’ve got to fulfill the book.

Won’t you have to sing

These songs of freedom? –

‘Cause all I ever had:

Redemption songs –

All I ever had:

Redemption songs:

These songs of freedom,

Songs of freedom.

Quote of the day........

There never did, there never will, and

there never can exist a parliament, or

in any country,.......... 

possessed of the right or the power of 

binding and controlling posterity 

to the `end of time,’ or of commanding 

for ever how the world shall be governed, or 

who shall govern it. ... 

Every age and generation must be 

as free to act for itself, in all cases, 

as the ages and generations.....

which preceded it.

-- Thomas Paine(1737-1809) 

US Founding father, pamphleteer, author


              *       *      *     *      *

Neither  in a conscious will of people 

or in any organized group

Nor in an individual invested in authority 

Lies all the wisdom......... 

To lead humanity.
