Moments in Time with BLisB (B.lack L.ife is S.imply B.eautiful)

The Study of the Negro...The oppressor...teaches the Negro he has no worthwhile past,that his race has done nothing significant since the beginning of time...lead the Negro to believe this and thus control his thinking. If you can thereby determine what he will think, you will not need to worry about what he will do...the oppressor, then, may conquer, exploit, oppress and even annihilate the Negro...without fear or trembling... --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/blisb/message Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/blisb/support

Higher Strivings in the Service of the Country- The Negro should endeavor to be a figure in politics, not a tool for politicians. Real politics, the science of government, is deeply rooted in the economic foundation of social order. --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/blisb/message Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/blisb/support

The New Type of Professional Man Required...The world is not circumscribed by the United States, and the Negro must become a pioneer in making use of a larger portion of the universe... --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/blisb/message Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/blisb/support

Vocational Guidance-Negroes do not need some one to guide them to what persons of another race have developed. They must be taught to think and develop something for themselves....The Negro, as a slave, developed this fatal sort of dependency; and, restricted to menial service and drudgery during nominal freedom , he has not grown out of it. Now the Negro is facing the ordeal of either learning to do for himself or to die out gradually in the bread line in the ghetto. --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/blisb/message Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/blisb/support

The New Program...the program for the uplift of the Negro in this country must be based upon a scientific study of the Negro from within, to develop in him the power to do for himself what his oppressors will never do to elevate him... --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/blisb/message Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/blisb/support

Understand the Negro... such has been the education of Negroes. They have been taught ‘facts’ of history but have never learned to think. Their conception is that you go to school to find out what other people have done, and then you go out in life and imitate them... --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/blisb/message Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/blisb/support

Hirelings in the Places of Public Servants- ... When education has been entirely neglected or improperly managed, we see the worst passions ruling with uncontrolled and incessant sway... --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/blisb/message Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/blisb/support

The need for service rather than leadership... The oppressor must have some dealing with the despised group, and rather than have contact with individuals, he approaches the masses through his own spokesman...If Negroes persist in permitting themselves to be handled in this fashion they will always find some one at hand to impose upon them... --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/blisb/message Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/blisb/support

The Loss of Vision...if the Negro in the ghetto must eternally be fed by the hand that pushes him into the ghetto, he will never become strong enough to get out of the ghetto... --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/blisb/message Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/blisb/support

Political Education Neglected... The result is that Negroes grow up without knowledge of political matters which should concern all...Negroes in certain parts, then, have all but abandoned voting even at points where it might be allowed...such knowledge is apparently useless for Negroes and unnecessary for the Whites, for the Negroes do not immediately profit by having it and the Whites may function as citizens without it... --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/blisb/message Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/blisb/support
