💩 The Dark Truth About Black People In America: A Detailed Analysis of Reality and Race Via Reason, Evidence, and Heterodoxy (Part 1)

There are a lot of questions about Black people given the trend of “Black Fatigue”. People of all races are beginning to ask questions out loud where they were silent before.

This is a topic that must be properly addressed and it cannot be properly addressed in a single article. So, this is part 1 of a series of articles that will properly address the truth about Black people. ALL of the most important questions will be addressed and each answer will include substantiation. Nothing stated in this series of articles is anybody’s opinion, belief, or assumption because everything stated is reality and each article is void of logical fallacy, paralogism, sophistry, contrivance, mendacity, conjecture, or lies.

Before I begin, there are some absolutes that must be pointed out because reality is absolute and if we are to be dealing with reality completely from beginning to end, we must begin with what is absolute because what is absolute does not change regardless of the time, place, person, people, or condition.

• A person is not a group of people, and that is absolute reality.

• A group of people is not a person, and that is absolute reality.

• Nobody is native to a country, a region, or an entire continent without also being native to the planet.

• Race is not culture and culture is not race.

• DNA, alleles, chromosomes, and genes exist.

• Ignorance is not exclusive to any person or group of people.

• Every cause has an effect.

• Opposites exist.

• No group of people has ever been enslaved from its beginning to its end.

• Living people are alive and dead people are dead.

• Nobody living today was alive 150, 200, or more years ago.

• Nothing lasts forever.

• First does not mean best and last does not mean worse.

• A person is personally responsible for what they do and say.

• Heterogeneity and homogeneity are reality.

• Belief is not knowledge nor is it absolute.

• If what a person feels is not real, that is delusion.

• Logical fallacy is flawed reasoning that misleads or manipulates people.

• Any true claim can be substantiated and must be substantiated if that claim is to be conveyed or accepted as reality.

• A mind produces what a mind requires.

The points listed above are absolute reality and will be referred to throughout this series of articles as “the list of absolutes”. Therefore, being absolute, they never change no matter what anybody believes or feels and they will remain absolute and true regardless of what is being communicated.

To begin, because this series of articles is about Black people or the Black race, the etymology and definitions for the words “black” and “race” as well as the origin of the concept or idea of race must be analyzed before moving forward. This also includes the reason for why race was introduced and how it has been used.

What Is Race?

Many people believe, maintain, and perpetuate the lie that the idea or concept of race has always existed. The idea or concept of “race” as it applies to people was popularized (not originated) in the 17th century and normalized as a way to CATEGORIZE people based on PHYSICAL differences, and was used by various anthropologists, historians, and other scientists who sought to classify human diversity in order to justify linking physical traits to social hierarchy and societal inequalities. This was logical fallacy and ideology, not actual science. How so and why? Because physical characteristics alone do not consider the genetic diversity within each race group and it falsely assumes that physical traits determine behavior or abilities. Behavior is psychological and no number of people share the same personal brain or personal mind. The idea of race as it applies to people is indeed a construct and the record of history and the development of the race idea or concept over time is the substantiation for that claim. Emphatically and absolutely, the idea or concept of race has not always existed and was popularized during the 17th century in Europe by the European people of that time period. Before that time, the idea or concept of race was not maintained or popularized by any group of people or culture(s).

The concept of race first emerged (originated) in the late 15th and early 16th centuries, primarily as European explorers encountered diverse indigenous populations, leading to the creation of racial hierarchies to justify exploitation and dehumanization. This means that the idea or concept of race had actually “racist” origins as it originated with people that viewed themselves to be superior in mind and being to other people that were subject to exploitation and DEHUMANIZATION. To exploit a person or people means to gain an advantage over a person or people. The word “exploit” existed before the concept of race was originated and popularized, and before the word “dehumanize” was coined.

The Etymology of Exploit: https://www.etymonline.com/word/exploit

The Definition of Exploit: https://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/exploit

The Etymology of The Word “Dehumanize”: https://www.etymonline.com/word/dehumanize

The Definition of The Word “Dehumanize”: https://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/dehumanize

So, in short, the concept of race was intentionally created for the exploitation and dehumanization of people that were not or are not White Christian Europeans. No, this is not about or a contribution to “the white man is bad/evil” idea. It is the truth about the origin of the race concept which includes how it started and why it was created, as well as when it was created and popularized. It is the truth and it is reality. If you disagree with, reject, or deny this reality or believe it to be anything other than reality, your mind is not qualified to properly deal with the reality of the topic of race and your belief is a delusion.

To illustrate the dehumanization aspect of race, let’s take a look at the current race classification and the definitions for each race:

Take a look at the definitions for each race category. Do you see that 4 of the 5 racial category definitions include the phrase “original peoples of”, but the definition for the Black or African American category does not include the phrase “original peoples of”? How is that not dehumanizing when the phrase “original peoples of” is not even applied to the definition for that racial category for a group of people? Is that by mistake? No. Was it done on purpose? Yes. Is it maintained on purpose? Yes. How many Black racial groups are there when there is only one race category for Black or African American? Now, understand this… there is no righteous justification for the absence of the phrase “original peoples of” in the definition for the Black or African American racial category, and any attempt to justify it as being necessary for anything other than dehumanization will not be void of logical fallacy. The US government or anybody that maintains the idea or concept of race will never add the phrase “original peoples of” to the Black or African American racial category. You must understand that race is not simply a demographic taxonomy or categorization… it is an idea or concept that originated as the Christian justification for dehumanization and exploitation of people that are not White European Christians. This is reality and reality is absolute.

What Is The Black Race?

In a world full of liars and lies, the truth is like a puzzle with many pieces (facts) that, when put together, convey the full picture or the reality about people, places, and things. You have been provided with some of the pieces of the truth puzzle about race as it applies to Black people. Now that you know the origin and purpose for race, it’s time to put together more pieces of the Black people puzzle by understanding what the Black race actually is. Being that the purpose of the idea and concept of race is exploitation and dehumanization set in place by some White Christian Europeans centuries ago, was the exploitation and dehumanization actuated equally for all people that are not White Christian Europeans? No, and the proof of this is what is called the “Bulls of Donation”, which are the foundation of the “Doctrine of Discovery”, which were religious edicts that effectively declared war on all people of the world that were not White Christian Europeans and gave the religious justification for taking the lands, controlling the resources of, and enslaving any people around the world that were not White Christian Europeans. Today, people call that racism, sociopathy, or bigotry, but at the time it was considered a religious obligation approved and dictated by the Catholic Church, as well as an economic or financial endeavor. Yes, Christians did that and Christianity was used to justify it.

So, let’s take a look at the Bulls of Donation:

• Inter Caetera (issued by Pope Alexander VI on May 4, 1493): https://encyclopediavirginia.org/primary-documents/inter-caetera-by-pope-alexander-vi-may-4-1493

The Inter Caetera Papal Bull was used to justify the colonization of lands in the New World. This Papal Bull also stated that one Christian nation did not have the right to establish dominion over lands previously dominated by another Christian nation, thus establishing the “Law of Nations”.

• Dum Diversas (issued by Pope Nicholas V on June 18, 1452): https://www.doctrineofdiscovery.net/1452-dum-diversas-issued-by-pope-nicolas-v-to-alfanso-v-of-portugal.html

The Dum Diversas Papal Bull authorized the fight (war) against, conquest of, and subjugation of non-Christians in Africa and consigned the non-Christian Africans that lost in battle to perpetual servitude (slavery). This provided the moral justification to freely acquire slaves along the African coast by force or trade.

• Romanus Pontifex (issued by Pope Nicholas V on January 8, 1455): https://www.papalencyclicals.net/nichol05/romanus-pontifex.htm

The Romanus Pontifex Papal Bull was used to justify and authorize military expeditions in West Africa and to reduce the non-Christians of West Africa into perpetual servitude. The Black race is an oversimplified categorization (a logical fallacy) and product of White European Christian heritage, history, and global ambition designed to perpetuate the artificial superiority of White European Christians.

Yes, all of that is true and so is this…

The Papal Bulls of Donation came to serve as the basis and justification for the Doctrine of Discovery, the global slave-trade of the 15th and 16th centuries, and the Age of Imperialism. It was convenient and expedient to engage in the slave trade of West Africa for the Europeans due to West Africa’s location relative to Europe and the New World. This is WHY the Europeans engaged in the slave trade that took place throughout West Africa. Keep in mind that it was a slave TRADE, not a slave snatch-and-grab, although “snatching and grabbing” did take place, but the bulk of the slaves were PURCHASED from Africans that were selling Negro and African slaves.

The Father of Modern Race Theory

Johann Friedrich Blumenbach, considered to be the “founder of racial classifications” proposed that “Caucasians” (White people) were the ideal human form based on his religious beliefs and not actual science. He paralogized that the first group of humans after the flood, Noah’s descendants, lived close to where Noah’s Ark supposedly landed which is claimed but not substantiated to be on Mount Ararat, which is near the Caucasus range. Basically, he asserted that White people were in the image of god, and thus, were the ideal form of humanity, as well as being the primeval or first humans from which all other races degenerated from.

“For in the first place, that [Caucasian] stock displays, [. . .] the most beautiful form of the skull from which, as from a mean and primeval type, the others diverge by most easy gradations on both sides to the two ultimate extremes (that is, on the one side the Mongolian, on the other the Ethiopian). Besides, it is white in colour, which we may fairly assume to have been the primitive colour of mankind, since, as we have shown above, it is very easy for that to degenerate into brown, but very much more difficult for dark to become white.” (Blumenbach [1795] [1865], 269)

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Johann_Friedrich_Blumenbach

Blumenbach’s beliefs about race and racial classification became the foundation for racial theory and persist to this day. The idea of race is not rooted in science. It is rooted in Christian religious bigotry. As long as the idea of race is perpetuated, there will be racism, and the idea of race will continue to persist as long as Christianity does. Christianity will continue to persist as long as ignorance is prioritized over reason amongst people. Racism began with the idea of race. This is reality.

What Is The Purpose of The Black Race?

To answer that question, you must first understand WHY the Europeans did not use Native Americans as slaves. The Europeans did not use Native Americans as slaves for several reasons. Amongst Native Americans there were high mortality rates due to diseases introduced by Europeans. The Native Americans were more familiar with the land than the Europeans. Native Americans had strong cultural identities and social structures, which contributed to organized resistance against enslavement. Many tribes engaged in warfare or other forms of resistance that made it risky for Europeans to enslave them on a large scale. Early colonial laws often recognized Indigenous peoples as sovereign and distinct nations, complicating the legal status surrounding their enslavement. In some cases, treaties and agreements were made that acknowledged their rights, albeit imperfectly. The burgeoning plantation economy in the Americas created a demand for an easily controlled and sustainable labor force. Africans, seen as more expendable due to their status as non-Christians and their perceived racial inferiority, became the preferred labor source.

Many Africans had greater resistance to certain diseases common in the Americas compared to Native Americans, who had little or no immunity to European diseases. This increased resilience helped reduce the mortality rates among enslaved Africans post-arrival. After their “arrival”, many Africans adapted to the conditions in the Americas, developing agricultural practices and skills that contributed to their survival and the survival of their captors. Their FAMILIARITY with certain crops also aided their adaptation. Because of this, the Black race became a necessity for the development and proliferation of the New World, serving the economic and financial needs in terms of labor, as well as to serve as the bottom of the societal and religious hierarchy for a society dominated by those with White European Christian heritage. Therein is the true purpose of the Black race. That purpose has not changed.

By the 19th century, the term “Black” was solidified as a racial category in the United States and Europe. This classification was increasingly tied to the institution of slavery and the growing Western ideology of racial superiority. Laws and social norms began to define individuals in terms of their racial category, with “Black” often used to denote those of “African” descent. Racial categories became ingrained in legal systems, particularly with the rise of Jim Crow laws and other discriminatory practices that segregated individuals based on race. The designation of “Black” later distorted the cultural identity of the former Africans, shaping how communities of “African” descent identified themselves due to the loss of their heritage and history.

An Important Note

None of the information here is designed to hold any White person living today responsible for what some White people did 100 or 200+ years ago. This is a conveyance and analysis of the information necessary to answer the questions posed in this article. A person is personally responsible for what they do and say. Nobody living today was alive 150, 200, or more years ago. Living people are alive and dead people are dead. A person is personally responsible for what they do and say. Be they White, Black, or any other race, the people of the 14th through the 18th centuries were responsible for what they did and said and they are all dead now. Historically and still to this day, the concept or idea of race is used to treat a person like a group of people or a group of people like a person. I am aware of that, which is why I also know that some people that read this article will feel as if they are being targeted or talked about, even though the people mentioned have long been dead and the people of today are not those people. So, if any living person takes offense to anything stated here, that is a result and outcome of the idea of race, or, as I call it, the Race Spell. Regardless of race, even if a person shares the same heritage of people that have died long ago, that does not make the living people equal to or the same as the dead people. If what a person feels is not real, that is delusion. The information in this article is necessary and pertinent for understanding the Black Americans of today because belief is not knowledge nor is it absolute, and there is a lot of belief about race and Black people that is simply not true. Any true claim can be substantiated and must be substantiated if that claim is to be conveyed or accepted as reality. This is why the claims in this article are supported with the necessary and pertinent substantiation. The information in this article and those to come in this series is heterodoxy in relation to the established or popular narratives. Furthermore, nothing stated in this article contradicts the list of absolutes.

In the next article of this series, I will provide the answers to more important questions about Black people or the Black race concerning the current living Black people in America today, their behavior, the pertinent statistics, and the current conditions of many Black race communities in America, and that picture is not pretty or beautiful. It is one the ugliest aspects of reality, but the truth must be known because reality always prevails. Reality is absolute and inevitable. Cause and effect are real, but so is personal responsibility.
