Slave Master on his Throne

US: What Where the Black & White Minstrels? (2.7.2026)

From the 1940s onward, a progressive trend in Minstreling permitted real black men to participate on stage – often along side white actresses. It must be born in mind that plantations existed well into the early 20th century. Slaves cannot help being uneducated because that is the state that the slave-master demands (knowing less is believed to make a person more easily controllable). On stage, the “interlocuter” would sit on a central throne and control the entire show. He is in fact the “slave-master” – and his slaves sit all around him – like obedient soldiers. Why the seats? Well, the “crackers” – the white security guards with whips (stood in the aisles) – preferred that the slaves be seated (and in one place for as long as possible) until it was their turn to perform. These crackers, although hidden, probably numbered as high as the performers just in case the slave-master (or his white assistants) were attacked at any point in the show. When blacked-up white men took the place of the slaves, the risk of attack disappeared, but the organisation used to control the slaves was retained on stage as an important feature of the entertainment itself. It is interesting to consider that popular music, in all its genres, is believed to have evolved out of the Minstreling tradition.

Jazz Fusion in the Confederacy

CSA: Jazz – An Interesting Assessment of “Black Freedom” in the Post-Confederate Period! (4.6.2026)

He had come from the British colony of the West Indies – and was surprised to observe how cognitively undeveloped the slave population was in America. In the West Indies the British had established “Re-Education Camps” which all former-slaves had to be held within. They were daily taught how to read and write, how to count, and how to civilly interact with one another (and other people). They were taught cleanliness and hygiene, etc. This included medical understanding and religious practice (Protestant Christianity). When each individual successfully passed all the sets tests and examinations – they were declared a “Free Citizen” and released into general society. Another way of gaining this status was to join the British Army and serve in Africa for the UK government. Men who survived 20-years gained British Citizenship and the right to settle in England as an Englishman – a great honour. Jefferson Davis wanted a phased reduction and abolition of slavery once the sovereign status of each State had been decided. He certainly had no intention of extending or preserving the institution – but you can see from the above quote that the North preserved slavery well into the 20th century – but gave it a thin-veneer of a faux “freedom”. Just as Davis promised the Native Americans their own country – he promised all Black men who supported the Confederacy “Freedom” and “Citizenship”. Because the North did not bother to transition the former slave populations – America is today riddled with all kinds of sociological ills. As matters stand, a “forced” assimilation does not seem to be working.

How Ogham Was Aligned with the Greci-Roman Alphabet.

Eire: Speaking [and Writing] the Irish Tongue! (6.4.2026)

She was also taught English at school by brutal school-masters. The children were beaten until they learned the English words – and this was by Irish teachers. As far as I am aware, Irish is a spoken language that was first written down in Ogham (lines pressed into the edges of clay tablets before firing – or engraved along the edges of standing stones – and known as the tree alphabet). Later, the sounds of Irish were transliterated into the received Greco-Roman alphabet – but this development was a contrivance – so that the invading English could understand what the Irish were saying. It would seem that the modern Irish learn to speak their language as normal – but now write it down using a foreign alphabet (English). Not only is this the case, but it would seem that a “French-like” accent (termed a “fada”) is used in modern Irish literature – such as over an “á” and other letters. Adding this mark – or taking it away – alters the sound of words and therefore the meaning of words. I suppose it amounts to “context” – but regarding literature (that is – the written word of modern Irish). As I cannot speak, read, or write “Irish” – I’m busking at the moment. My claim to fame is that my paternal grandmother (Gladys Kilmurray) could speak Irish – and that when her family members came to the UK to attend her funeral – they spoke Gaelic to one another and English to us. They seemed surprised that we could not speak Irish – but Nana was always reluctant to speak it in England due to the racism she used to receive for being “Irish”. Now, the racists would have believe the Irish have been “White” all along.

UN General Assembly

UN [that Condemned Iran for Defending Itself] – Declares Trans-Atlanctic Slavery “Greatest Crime”! (26.3.2026)

The US representative, Dan Negrea, claimed that the resolution was “highly problematic in countless respects”, the UN News agency reported.

The US government stressed that it “does not recognize a legal right to reparations for historical wrongs that were not illegal under international law at the time they occurred”.

The representative of the European Union made the same argument on the floor of the UN.

The EU criticized the resolution for implying “suggestions of a retroactive application of international rules which was non-existent at the time and claims for reparations, which is incompatible with established principles of international law”.

“References to claims for reparations also lack a sound legal basis”, the EU argued, stressing that the “principle of non-retroactivity, a fundamental cornerstone of the international legal order, must be strictly upheld”.

The UK Foreign, Commonwealth & Development Office said the same, in a statement explaining its decision to abstain.

The British representative argued that there is “no duty to provide reparation for historical acts that were not, at the time those acts were committed, violations of international law”.

The UK insisted “that the prohibitions on slavery, the slave trade, and what are now considered crimes against humanity had not yet been established in international law at the time of the transatlantic slave trade”.

UK: European Human Rights Court Questions UK Decision to Strip Shamima Begum of Citizenship! (16.1.2026)

This has left the right and far-right calling for the UK to leave the EHRC and stop completely all Socialist redistributing mechanisms – on top of banning all migrants. As and when the far-right attain political power – further vulnerable groups (such as the Disabled) would be attacked. Now, bear in-mind that right-wing UK governments have brought-in hundreds of thousands of Neo-Nazi Ukrainians and Hong Kong Rioters using EHRC legislation in recent years – whilst a single “Hindu” Tory Minister in one of those governments decided to withdraw the citizenship of a 15-year old British Muslim girl who was sex trafficked to ISIS in Syria. The right-wing and far-right not only want to withdraw from the EHRC to prevent the application of Socialistic redistribution – but it also wants to prevent the rescuing of a sex-trafficked British girl simply on the grounds that her skin is not White! The silence from the left and far-left is deafening.

Flag - Confederate Socialist States of America!

CSA: Confederate Socialist States of America! (7.1.2026)

There are a number of people around the world who believe the Confederate Uprising the the US (1861-1865) was actually am Uprising of Workers disguised by the North (the eventual winners) as nothing more than an inconvenient morality play of “good” Vs “Evil” – with the North representing the godly and the South the devil. A highly childish example of US anti-intellectualism. Of course, racists hijacking the Confederate cause in the 20th century has not helped matters – but facts on the ground suggest a very different story. In a sense, Black people have once again been brainwashed by the Whites to hate the South and pretend that every injustice they face does not originate in the very local neighbourhoods within which they live – primarily in the North. Teachings the Black population to love money seek-out only material enrichment is the ultimate method in alienating a population that needs Socialism the most – from actually creating the conditions for a Communist Revolution to occur.
