Little black girl writes a poem

[boskysquelch]

Indirectly through social darwinist theories & the accompanying bullshit?

Darwin was White Nationalist? ,,,sits down to be taught...give?

Is JC2 a Racist??????

Well, Zenie...

When I talk of 'Johnnies' unflinching support for Gilbert's views, I should point out that Gilbert was very carefull not to give away his true agenda in his dribblings.

He ranted extensively in support of US foreign policy (which in my view is based upon fundamentally racist views), suggesting such thing as 'Iraq should be turned into a lake of glass' (nuked) etc.

'Johnny' was his greatest fan - so much so that 'Diesel' invited him to his bar-B-Q.

in my experience, a seven year old kid couldn't be smart enough to write that - her race is irrelevant, and hinting that this is the reason why people find it suspicious is a bit odd tbh.

Very bright kids of seven can have extraordinary vocabularies - they have potential to retain huge numbers of facts and massive detail - but the level of philosophical understanding here implies an analytical maturity i have never heard of in a child of seven.

I agree

 

[Mation]

Yeah, because racism never existed before Darwin, did it?

In any case, Darwin was no white nationalist and there is nothing racist about Darwinian evolutionary theory.

In the unlikely event that a 7 year old wrote that poem, she might be forgiven for not fully understanding evolutionary theory and the garblemanglebollocks that social darwinists have tried to make of it though.

But yes, my second thought was 'Darwin??'.

Not Darwin himself but the way his theories were later interpreted:

The Misapplication of a Biological Theory

But, for our purposes, it is the use to which some people made of biological evolution which concerns us. Some simplified the idea to "survival of the fittest." Others believed that an identical process took place among human beings. They believed that white Protestant Europeans had evolved much further and faster than other "races." And some, especially the followers of Herbert Spencer, took it one step further. Human society is always in a kind of evolutionary process in which the fittest- which happened to be those who can make lots of money--were chosen to dominate. There were armies of unfit, the poor, who simply could not compete. And just as nature weeds out the unfit, an enlightened society ought to weed out its unfit and permit them to die off so as not to weaken the racial stock.

I think that's spitting on a mentally retarded black girl not run over... ..

You're right.

Although he DID get done for trying to run over a 'little black kid' who had been adopted by white parents as well - but that was a different time, apparently.

He's currently doing time on firearms offences, IIRC.

This cock of a thread has backfired rather badly on Mr.Johnny.

read the poem.

what about Columbus? what's his story as a racist vampire?

keen to learn.

Does it ever turn in his favour?

sorry mMaestro but all that glitters is not gold...especially when it comes out of JC2's arse..wooops...sorry ...mouth! ...fingers? ..oh i dunno...where DOES it come from Joooooooooooohnnnnny???!

I agree with bfg's post at what I hope's the top of this page. I used to write stuff at a decent level that surprised adults when I was about 9/10 - not rap I'm afraid - so I can see it's possible, albeit with input. Sadly those glory days are gone

 

[Mation]

Glisters.

 

[camouflage]

Not only is the idea of a seven year old child writing anything that sophisticated utterly ludicrous, since when did Darwin have anything to do with White Nationalism?

Yeah, I thought there was no need to bring Darwin into this either, maybe it's a refference to how Darwins message was received by euro-supremacists at the time, as opposed to what Darwin was actually talking about (evolution).

Good poem, did the kid write it? Judging from the picture I'd say her parents are very proud of her in a re-live-my-youth-through-my-kids kind of way.

She's only got a Daddeeeeeee... ..well! apparantly Bro Ashante is a single-parent.

yeah given the chance::

They've not got the years or the life experience yet. And for as long as they're been taught at home by Nazi mum, and Nazi grandad, in some hick backwater, they'll both probably be in their 70s when they do. They've also got as much natural artistic talent as every other white power dickhead band they appear on stage with

Well, there was that thing were he played a major role in the enslavement, brutalisation and eventual genocide of an entire aboriginal people.

 

[Jorum]

Is a strange poem for a 7yr old to write. Columbus and Henry Morgan not the first people who springs to mind regarding slavery to be honest.

Dragging Darwin into race/politics does the man a great disservice.
If someone chooses to misunderstand and mangle his science to prop up whatever stupid social theories they have that isn't relevant to him.
It's like the stupid idea that Einstein is responsable for the invention of the atomic bomb.

 

[Streathamite]

Seven-year-olds say "paradigm"?

precisely....hmmmmm

 

[Shippou-Sensei]

it's not impossible for a 7 year old with a dictionary and a somewhat odd grasp on darwin to have writen that poem

but it does seam somewhat unlikely...

plus it does appear to be is aimed at making a fuss

 

[Shippou-Sensei]

but i am intrigued by the idea of pirate vampire darwins....


this calls for a photoshop!

 

[Donna Ferentes]

Maybe she's the new Mozart. She'll be hawked round the crowned heads of Europe and displayed to the public at fifty dollars a throw.

 

[zoltan]

Sorry people - subject matter of the poem itself aside, - this is a hoax o a very sad sick joke.

 

[slaar]

I can believe it was written by a seven year old, it's shit.

If you want decent poetry on exploitation then Maya Angelou is a good start.

 

[In Bloom]

I can believe it was written by a seven year old, it's shit.

It might be shit, but it does show a grasp of vocbluary and concepts above the level of any seven year old I've ever encountered.

 

[Jorum]

Everything else aside - "Made to watch as they changed the paradigm of our village" is a crappy line and doesn't make a lot of sense.

I don't believe white nationalism was the motivating factor for slavery anyway. It was profit, having the power to actually take slaves, and not giving a shit about other people mostly. After all various North-African and Arab countries at the time had slave trades as well. Not to mention slavery being common in many places throughout history.

Interestingly the mangled evolutionary concept of "blacks are a lesser race" only really seems to have appeared when people started questioning the morality of slavery. It seems to have been an attempt to offer a rational defence in order to support slavery and appease some guilt.
Before then there did not seem to be such a sense of enslaved races being inferior, just that they were enslaved.
Going back a bit too far to the Romans and Greeks, they generally seemed to considered other races as equal, some even to be admired. But it was a case of "we beat you, you lost, so your a slave now".

Agreed. Which is why if it was her, it's impressive for that.

Jorum - I agree, it's basically a rant against white nationalism (which is bad) using arguments that don't particularly apply to white nationalism. Profit was far, far more important to the slave trade than nationalism. The British Empire, about the strongest white nation in relative terms yet, banned slavery 70 years before Americans themselves banned it.
