The first thing they should have done before Civil Rights movement was to figure out what the purpose of Jim Crow and Slavery was created for. Nobody asked that and tried to resolve it! It did not happen by accident. Slavery and Jim Crow did not happen by accident. It was created to control and distribute the wealth into the hands of the dominant society. So how can you talk about the equality when you havent dealt with the problem. We should do what the bible says, Get knowledge! But more importantly get understanding. Understand what you are up against which is Racism. Now how did racism come into existence on this earth? Racism never existed on this earth until the 1500s. You never had racism on the earth. Racism came into existence when nine European countries, some Asians, & Arab Middle easterners decided to enrich themselves by building colonies in the new world which was the Americas. They got into a contest. In the 1400s Europe had been decimated by poverty, plague, famine, and crime. They wanted to lift themselves up. Found out in 1442 what the Pope had been given out 16 slaves out of Africa to work in the church by Henry the Navigator. By 1488, Pope Innocent put out an edict that said if you want get out of debt then get you some slaves of Africa. So all those European countries came up with they could get themselves out of debt by getting resources and labor out of Africa. So all the European countries got into a contest or what you call a race. A race to develop South, Central And North America. Thats when the race started. Everybody was taking blacks out of Africa for 15-20 dollars and selling them for 1500% profit margin for about $325 each. Racism created Slavery. Slavery didnt create racism. Slavery and racism is economic issues. It has nothing in the world with getting along with people such as bias, discrimination, prejudice, and hatred. Those things have nothing to do with it. It has everything to do with competitive relationship between groups of people competing to control resources and its economic bases. Then once they acquire it they can control who has those resources and push them out. Then it became a religious issue, because they had to justify the enslavement. -Dr. Claude Anderson- Power of Blackness https://youtube/watch?v=L7j4_EiReFE
