The blog exists to stimulate a deeper look and thought around African matters and peoples in general. The idea is to have an emancipatory analysis and dicussion rather than a ''licenced'' discussion which depends on and satisfies particular expectations rather than the organic realities and reflections of African people and their communitites.

Afrophobia unmasked
Written by Maleke
the international economic structure and basis are really an anti black/African at best, hence our battle for "inclusion" into it, one can just take as a example the figures of the local Johannesburg stock exchange to get an idea of what I refer to when saying "inclusion", this is irrespective of the disputes around what constitutes black ownership and the numbers depending on who did the research!
In any case, by international here I limit the definition to Europe and America, I deliberately chose to leave the other parts like the Arab world in my definition as that would constitute another topic altogether.
the history of racist capitalism and its foundations traces its foundations and lays upon the blood, sweat, dehumanisation and a complete dismantling programme of an African, both psychologically and physically through brutal and violent methods employed by the white men, with the current methods being the strategic nonviolent ones such as education.
a summary of the white men's history. ... the white men battles for resources amongst themselves in europe because being in a lower class in a white society was almost considerd a curse and individuals were almost treated as outcasts, with the upper class living and enjoying the materialistic life of gambling, drinking etc, hence even Karl Marx's theories being based on generalizations of historic materialism, the upper class was the class that eventually won and owned the land from the internal battles. now that the lower class felt humiliated by this, the started to travel out of europe to sick for a place where they could own land and hence be of upper class themselves!
this land becomes America and the Carrabians, they get there, kill indigenous Indians in millions in a violent land dispossession, they go to Africa to get Africans to work the plantations at free labour through slavery, they also disposes the Africans of their land and make them work the land for free.
the contact of the white men with the African is therefore a genocidal one of extreme forms of violence, only in pursuit of the status of upper class through land ownership! . . this is the nature of the white men in simple terms.
the white men then develops the industries in which the plantation produce by Africans for free would be processed, in these industries worked white laborers while in the plantations worked the dehumanised African.
It is out of this free African labour and selling of African slaves as commodities that maximum profits were derived to establish capitalism as we know it today. It is a known fact today that as soon as labour costs rises then the "market" collapses! . . therefore it makes sense that the racist anti African capitalist market rouse out of free African labour. .
the point here is that, America and Europe are the same white people. . . . . hence the IMF and World Bank as we know them....
in short, the economic structure as we know it today, is based on the materialistic hunger of the white men and his inhumane nature that thrived on the dehumanising programme of the African rendering the African subhuman.
Now, as an example, we have also seen the divide and rule strategies that has damaged Africa at large, we have seen different tribes within the same black nation being divided for example in Sudan where the one part of it was given education while the other part not leading to internal conflicts, Uganda is another example.
South Africa itself has a history of tribal conflicts arising from the migrant labour system, even in the mines today we see Xhosas from eastern cape being taken to work in Marikana mines whereby the local Batswana speaking then feels that the Xhosa "foreigners" are taking "their jobs", as a results of this, black on black conflicts arises! the other example is Nigeria who has large oil reserves where religious conflicts are a problem amongst black people. the whole intent is that Africa must remain unstable in order for Britain and America to continue extracting its minerals to maintain the upper class hunger of the white men.
Therefore, Afrophobia must be extrapolated from divide and rule strategy applied to the African tribes. ... basically African against African from various countries is an expanded version of tribe against tribe.
Therefore what we are witnessing here in Mzansi and Africa at large, can only be permanently routed out through the collapse of white economic supremacy. . You cannot resolve it with controls and security forces because then you are addressing the symptoms and technical issues rather than the core question!
Hellen Zille once refered to the Xhosa Africans fleeing poverty in the eastern cape as foreigners into Cape Town, imagine what could have happened? . .. ... so I agree our leaders must be careful of what they say
but the fundamental issue is clear to me. . Africa must free beyond colonial borders
We cannot as the picture depicts, raise the Bible and pray while the white men brutally attacks mother Africa. ..
