White people are always trying to prove that Black people are less than them. This smells like an inferiority complex, because if they genuinely believed they were superior, they wouldn't feel the need to constantly prove it.

Libya negotiated. Let's be precise about what happened to Libya. In 2003, Muammar Gaddafi made a strategic decision to abandon his weapons programs, open his country to international inspectors, and normalize relations with the West. He paid reparations for Lockerbie. He dismantled his nuclear program. He cooperated with Western intelligence against Al-Qaeda. He did everything that was asked of him. He negotiated. He complied. He normalized. In 2011, NATO bombed Libya for seven months. His own military turned against him with Western backing. He was captured in a drainage pipe. A mob sodomized him with a bayonet while Western officials watched via satellite feed. Hillary Clinton laughed about it on camera. "We came, we saw, he died." The man who gave up his deterrent in exchange for promises of security and normalization died in a drainage pipe while the people who made him those promises laughed at the footage of him being sodomized with a bayonet. And Libya, which had the highest GDP per capita in Africa, free healthcare, free education, housing subsidies, and a functioning welfare state, became a failed state with open slave markets within three years. This is what negotiated security guarantees look like. This is the documented outcome. Not a fringe case. Not a misunderstanding. The most complete, unambiguous illustration possible of what your weapons are worth the moment you give them up. The lesson is not complicated. The only deterrent is a deterrent you still possess. The moment you negotiate it away, you have nothing left to negotiate with.

The Tignon laws of the 18th century were laws that banned black women from exposing their natural hair in public. Their hairdos was obscuring the status of the white women and this threatened the social stability. The law would control colored women “who dressed too elegantly..” Resembling today’s West African Gele, a tignon is a type of head-covering. It is a large piece of material wrapped or tied around the head to form a kind of turban concealing the hair. Tignons were worn by free and slave Creole women of African descent in Louisiana from 1786. Historically, their prevalence was as a result of sumptuary laws passed in 1786 under Governor Esteban Rodriguez Miró. These prescribed and enforced appropriate public dress styles for women of color in a white-dominated society. Hence, they were made as a way of regulating the appearance of black women in the U.S. During the period, when black enslavement in America was at its peak, and places like New Orleans was unique in its high population of gens de couleur libres (free people of color), black women’s beauty and features often attracted white men who approached them as suitors. This enraged white women who perceived them as competitors. Evidently, African women competed openly with white women through elegant dressing, including adorning their textured hair with gems, beads, and other accents that made them stand out from white women and possessing great beauty. To take care of this perceived menace, series of sumptuary laws birthing the Tignon Law were put in place in order to stop white men from pursuing and engaging in affairs with women of colour, “while also being a class signifier,”

The 20 detained delegates have been released but most of their phones and devices have been seized and DHS is refusing to return them till a later unspecified date. People had their bags searched and the contents of their journals photographed and denied access to legal counsel.

Delegates on the Nuestra America Convoy plane that just landed in Miami are being stopped at customs for questioning and having devices taken including @Shut_downAmazon @kthalps. When we returned Monday several of our group like @4noura were stopped too. Blatant gov intimidation.
