“Every revolution In history has been accomplished by actions. Although words are necessary,
we must create shields that wil protect us and spears that penetrate our enemies.

“Black revolutionaries do not drop from the moon; we are created by our conditions, shaped
‘by our oppression. We are being manufactured in droves in the ghetto streets."

“Let’s get down to business / mental self-defensive fitness.”
Chuck D,

Mumia Abu-Jamal, a Black Panther & political prisoner in Pennsylvania,
was released into the prison population in 2013 after serving thirty
years on.Death Row. ae

When | met Mumia in the prison library, | was immediately motivated
by his calmness and remarkable sense of clarity.

When | was in solitary confinement in the early 2000's, | had a cell
neighbor, Joe Blow, who was mentally reduced to smearing his feces on
his cel! wall after 3 months in the hole.

How could one person whose done 3 decades in solitary come out
mentally healthier than the one who went crazy after 3 months in the
hole?

By exercising a revolutionary mentality.

Throughout his decades of isolation, Mumia managed to write
numerous articles on the Struggle, rebelliously wrote books and even
managed to make a c.d. & appear on the radio.

A revolutionary mentality can bring order out of chaos in your life just as
well — whether you find yourself in “civilization” or on a cellblock.








“Self Respect”
Before we can ever expect to be respected by other humyn beings, we
must first uphold our own humynity and begin respecting ourselves.
Self-respect liberates you from the chains of a slave-like mentality &
marks the beginning of a truly revolutionary mind-frame in life.
This doesn’t imply a need to wearing camouflage & biack beret hats in.
your day-to-day activities. You can be just as militant-minded without
such ostentatious displays of the sort. You could be a sanitation worker
‘or a prisoner in an orange jumpsuit and still carry within you this
essential level of self-respect.










In life there’l! be those who want to rob you of this possession —
whether it be @ corrections officer or a so-called “superior” at work
it could be an enemy who envies your new-found sense of dignity and
privately wants to see you down on your luck instead of alive and up on
your feet.

Don't let them rob you of this possession. Self-respect is a fundamental
need in the fight for Self-Determination for yourself and for humynity as
a whole
Don't let anyone take it away from you. It’s one of the most important,
one of the most coveted and priceless things you could ever possess.






Becomi itation of Revolutionary ideals





A revolutionary mentality & the self-respect that it bestows to
a humyn being can be acquired through studying & reflecting on how to
make yourself a better person in ji

‘Acknowledging your importance within the world as

3 paramount individual with something substantial to contribute to it is
to the transformation process within you and in the world!

In a society of so many lies and facades, self-respect is an invaluable
virtue in becoming a living representation of revolutionary ideals. Truth-
speaking, or, Maak-heru, as the ancient Egyptians called it- is
revolutionary in itself, and like MLK said: “Truth, crushed to the ground,
will rise again.”

Speak truth to power, and watch (coercive) power diminish in strength
before you.

Reflect on your Revolutionary Mission in jife.
Encourage those who've fallen prey to such a predatory system such
‘as that of the government - to understand their importance and '
relevance in the Struggie that we're at war in.

‘Black Man, Woman, and Child: You're Not Inferior

Black man, womyn and child: you are not inferior; and-our people never
were inferior.

Throughout history, we've been a well of remarkable depth which has
and continues to quench the thirst of knowledge-seekers from history's,
‘most eminent schools of Thought.








Ancient Greek philosophers of high repute, such as Plato and
Pythagoras of Crotona, studied the Mysteries of life, high mathematics
& advanced astronomy in our schools in ancient Egypt (Kemet).

Plato, who was initiated in the pyramid at Giza at the age of 49, opened
his famous philosophical schoo! known as the Academy. Tradition has it
that he was sold as a slave by the king of Sicily and was greatly
persecuted for revealing such mysterious secrets of life to those who
would hear it.
Pythagoras, who taught that “it is the part of a miserable man to speak
and to act without reflection;” received much of his philosophical light
from the Egyptian temple of isis {and this after several rebuffs and
refusals). He later required of his disciples that they live in complete
(verbal) silence and abstinence for five years upon admission into his
school. Such was the intensity level of these remarkable teachings.

q

Moreover, the Greek Hippocrates - the so-called “Father of Medicine” &
whom the “Hippocratic Oath” of those joining the medical profession
swear by ~ was 1900 years prior preceded by the great phys

imhotep. He was the first-recorded multi-genius — an Afrikan who.
studied medicine in ancient Kemet (Egypt) around 2630 B.

‘The Greek historian, Heroditus, wrote of how the parents of Hercules

were Egyptian; and those who study history today can discover that

even princess Europa ~ of whom Europe was named after - was

of Afrikan ancestry, as well.

This is the type of knowledge that our ancestors in time of chattel

slavery could've greatly benefited from had it not been a crime for our
to learn how to read and write or speak in their native tongues.
No wonder in 1832, Henry Berry spoke on the floor of the Virginia
House of Representatives:

“We have as far as possible, closed every avenue by which light may
enter the slaves’ mind...[IIf we could extinguish the capacity to see the
light, our work would be complete, they would then be on the leve!
with the beast of the field and we should be safe.”

Later on in history, as Malcolm taught, “was the fabulous, fabled city of
Timbuktu. Timbuktu was a center of learning where they (Black people)

| had colleges and universities; and this Timbuktu existed as a hidden city,

| or a forbidden city, to the white man for many centuries. He was not
permitted to go there, none of them had been there — it was for us.” (see
“Malcolm X On fe: “American History,” published through So. Chicago

"Not only were the Black Moors of Morocco & the universities
they erected in Portugal & Spain considered the only light during
the Dark Ages of Europe for hundreds of years,
“In ancient times and even later there were Caucasians who regarded
the Blacks as superior people.... here were...always Caucasians who
were affectionately drawn to the Blacks as by some magic.” (Chancellor
Williams, “The Destruction of Black Civilization”)

There are volumes of Afrikan and Afro-Amerikan encyclopedias
highlighting our achievernents. Generally speaking, the idea of racial
superiority was an instrument of white European opportunists
promoting lies, the spreading of ignorance and the de-humanizing lack
of belief in Equality.
Far freer than the Afrika of today, we collectively excelled in stateless
and chiefless societies. Through miseducation, those in power have
struggled to disarm our minds by conveying notions of white superiority
and Black inferiority. Century after century, however, our people have
demonstrated ~ in one way or another ~ the equal capacity of
fellectual depth and charismatic resilience no authority could ever
repress.




Alexander Crummel (1819-1898), founder of the American Negro
‘Academy, wrote how
“The ordinary, and sometimes the extraordinary American is unable to
see that the struggle of a degraded people for elevation is, in its very
nature, a warfare, and that its main weapon is the cultivated and
scientific mind.”
He further overstood that



















“The Negro mind, imprisoned for nigh three hundred years, needs
breadth and freedom, largeness, altitude, and elasticity; not stint
rigidity, ndr contractedness.”

‘Some say that a “master class” doesn't exist. This tends to be promoted
((ronicalty) by those in positions of authority and political power. This
generally includes governing bodies who believe or teach that
involuntary servitude died with the end of chattel slavery, in America, at
least.

Others proclaim that a “Master Class” does exist. This is attested by
those who acknowledge themselves as slaves, in one way or
another. These are prisoners (Constitutional slaves under the

13" Amendment), wage slaves in the workforce and those who suffer
from inequality in social relationships in day to day life.

From this we may synthesize that a slave class exists for many, while a
master-class exists among the elite and powerful few. For in a capitalist
society, those who have more money and military organization have the
power over the necessities of life over those who don’t have it.



Both classes do not deny that “class differences” exist between the
higher-ups & those who struggle to survive at the bottom. To settle this
contradiction is to arrive at the over standing that this can be resolved
by the Destruction of “classes” & the overthrow of authority that it
implies.




Class-clashing is necessary in the fight for freedom as the organization
of slaves involves the fight for Equality and empowerment for the
‘masses; a people who slave for a master class that needs to keep the
consciousness & manpower of the people under subjection.

‘An Anarchist Revolution is thus a logical necessity for intellectual, socio-
‘economic and political liberation; in the relationship between those
who govern and those who are governed. For where there's no slave
there’s no master; and where there’s no master there can no longer be

slave.
Poverty is Economic Oppression

Asa truth-seeker in the ghetto, you may strangely find

yourself asking “How am / oppressed?”

You're oppressed by poverty. Poverty is economic oppression. You
struggle to financially provide for yourself (and your family if you have
one). Every day's a struggle in a government system that could really
care less If you end up homeless or not; if you die or survive.

Acut-throat, capitalist lifestyle creates chaos & disorder within you & in
the 'hood where drug deals erupt in turf-wars and gangbanging.
‘Gangbanging has its roots in authority. Authority can only thrive in the
absence of Equality; and conversely, Equality can only be found:where
authority doesn’t exist.

Now, in the absence of Equality is, definitively speaking, injustice.
Injustice has a profound effect on all of our minds. In every ‘hood, our
people suffer from the oppression of social injustice bombarded by
worries & fears ~worries & fears we watch turn many crazy, strung-
out, locked up or dead in the streets.

‘These are irrefutable facts our people struggle to come to grips with,
‘and it takes the application of knowledge to fix yourself in these life-
‘condemning and twisted conditions. Conditions which breed today a
‘growing number of people lke you who find yourself reflecting.on the
reality of writings like these.

We know that there's no Equality in the United States as well as
anywhere else where governments are found to exist in this world.
if there was equality there would be no such thing as “Haves and Have-

nots.
If there was really Equality, there'd be no such thing as Upper, Middle
and Lower classes.

As Anarchist revolutionary Anthony Rayson once paraphrased,
poverty is one of the major causes of “crime” which needs to be
eliminated. An Anarchist Revolution is necessary to rid ourselves from
economic oppression & every oppressive element impoverishing you,
me and the lives of our peoplé!
‘To You Who Struggle With Self-Acceptance
While you may or may not care whether or not you become accepted
by others; it's intimately important that you overstand the necessity of
accepting yourself. Despite all the mistakes you've made; regardless of
ail the mistakes you've so regrettably caused — you, like every
‘other humyn being ~ possesses the ability to mature, evolve and learn
from your past.

When you don't accept yourself as a humyn being, you become reduced
toa level of a defeated person, to an abyss of the

most disabling & groundless beliefs. Negative affirmations such as “I’m
worthless;” “I don’t deserve to live,” and such, puts you in an inferior
position instead of one of Equality with the rest of the humyn race.

Those with authority over us don’t want us to transcend because they
know of our potential - in many times, even more than we
understand our potential, ourselves. it’s inconveniently ironic that
we've wrested the whip from our slave masters only to use it in lashing
ourselves and each other!

This is known as internalized oppression.

‘The Mental Health Association of Southeastern Pennsylvania
describes “internalized Oppression” thus:

“As the result of historic trauma, traumatized people may
begin to internalize the views of the oppressor and perpetuate a cycle of
self-hatred that manifests in negative behaviors. Emotions such as
‘anger, hatred, and aggression are self-inflicted, as well as inflicted on
members of one's own group. For example, self-hatred amang
Blacks/African Americans who act out their aggression on people who

__.... look like them.* (Johnson,n.d.)
In Survival Strategies for Africans in America, Anthony T. Browder
acknowledged how “Africans in America and on the continent (of
Africa) have been conditioned by their former ensiavers and colonizers
to wage war against each other and struggle nonviolently agafhst their
‘common oppressor.”
When we reflect on our lives, we can clearly see that now's the time for
pas changes to be made — not only socially, but within ourselves, as
well. 7.


We must accept ourselves as beings of change, like @
caterpillar developing into a butterfly after it emerges from its cocoon.

‘The time for rising above has arrived.

Every obstacle in our path must be overthrown & we must arrive at @
state of reconciliation within ourselves.

Positive affirmations such as “I’m a revolutionary with

@ Purpose,” and “I can help turn this world into a better place,” are key
in re-directing our force of Resistance in the transformation from self-
denial to self-acceptance.

{t's unfortunate that so many of us in the world are our own worst
enemy when we need to become one’s own best friend.

Learn to be your closest, your best friend to yourself.

Shadow can't hide from substance.

With philosophical ight, acquaint yourself with the knowledge that you
acquire to walk with,

‘On Becoming Dead To Your Former Self

“Before we can ever become whole or healed, we must be clear about
exactly who we believe we are and what we believe we are here
for.” (Jacquelyn Small)

There comes a time in our lives when we must begin to question our
Purpose for why we're here. |
Growing up in a soclety where killing ourselves and our own has
become an everyday reality in North Amerika, it readily becomes
apparent that a truly virtuous life is one In which we ~ as slaves in
different forms — become dead to who we formerly were,

{As a people out-casted from the world of the privileged, we must
become one with the need to.“X" ourselves out from who we formerly
‘were; from all we've been confirmed into becoming. For us to
advance, It's important we rise above the level of gangbanging,
‘organized religion, and in general, the zombie-tike following of every
enstaving ideal.
With this being said, it becomes unavoidably clear that something inside
the revolutionary has died.
The lust for personal riches, for power over others (instead of
power with others), etc. becomes overstood as socio-cidal and no
longer a compelling force in the experience of day to day life.

8
‘Something inside drives the revolutionary to be willing to not only die

for, but to also kill in defense of the oppressed & exploited

‘communities around the world. The systemically

oppressed everywhere can relate to the characteristics of such an in-

ward death, and the revolutionary overstands death as an inevitable

part of life.
Something inside the revolutionary has also become alive - alive like
Osiris when Isis resurrected him by infusing into him life with the wings
of her love and her wisdom. For love and wisdom infuses new life into
the revolutionary who overstands that we must rise from the tomb
of ignorance and come forth by day unto the light of intellectual
liberation.







‘Something inside the revolutionary awakens like the “holy instinct of
revolt” taught by Mikhail Bakunin. Compassion for the neglected

_ masses (and one’s self) characterizes the nature of the
‘revolutionaries this crumbling world has been longing to see and
embrace. Becoming dead to our former selves means that we've
‘accepted within us the call to not only be willing to die for but to
also live for the people! c

~The Personals Political and the Politica s Personal
As revolutionaries dead to the life we formerly lived (which was life of
intellectual ignorance & social contradictions), and when we look

deeper within ourselves and around us, it also becomes clear as day
that the personal is political and the political is personel.

According to “The State of Black America: 2018 Conference of

the National Urban League,” Black unemployment is twice as high as
white unemployment. Economic disempowerment is a centuries-old
reality we've been challenged with, here in Amerika, affecting the
masses of us in a personal way. Wimmin, moreover - working the same
Jobs & positions as men — are still annually paid /ess than men when it
‘comes to making a living in this country.

‘Concerning the infiltration of drugs into our neighborhoods, Anthony
Browder noted the way that
“the CIA played a major role in the introduction of powder
‘The politics of the ghetto across amerika - such as poverty, mass imprisonment, genocidal gang,
‘banging, drug dealing, & using becomes revealed as slavery to a government system hell-bent
‘on keeping us divided and disempowered.

| We're no strangers to being racially profiled by city police, humiliated
__ through strip-searches in prisons where the majority of us spend over
"one-third of our lives; a virtual police state where so many of us serve
"0p to decades in solitary confinement succumbing to madness.
| That is, madness or militancy. And in an age where so many of
Us succumb to the forces of madness, a militant mind becomes one
| most necessary to develop.

Arevolutionary mentality is a necessary force to develop among the
down-trodden of the earth who've been wrestied to the ground in the
{rips of government violence. It's time we pick each other
| up and overstand that the opposite of a downfall is an up-rise,
|__ regardless of where we wake up and find ourselves in the world.
| It means that it’s time that we strategically revolt against being
| so savagely thrown down & collectively rise to reclaim our humynity,

“dignity and self-respect. We must resist from any longer being compliant

targets in the crosshairs of government violence and organize violence

‘against it in myriad ways.

Being Black, poor & radical, it’s our obligation to turn the light

of Resistance on in the minds of those who live in dire straights,

‘stumbling, and reaching in darkness.
The more we realize we have the tools within us to use mentally, the
closer we come to utilizing them strategically against those who oppress
us!



Dual Power!

“Those who have maximum influence over those physical resources [i. e.:
food, clothing, and shelter], are considered to be very powerful. Those
who have limited influence are considered weak or certainly, lacking in

power.”
-Natim Akbar, (“Know Thyself")

DUAL POWER has been defined as the “creation of q

alternative, ieratory power to exist alongside & eventually over¢ome

state/capitalist power.” (James Mumm). We need more than meré
coping strategies; of wasting our lives struggling from paycheck to
paycheck, from one hustle to the next.

We need Dual Power fight now: the setting up counter-culture

environments that meet the people’s needs,

while inaiecty confronting the establishment from the ground up.

~


In Active Revolution, Mumm overstood that “Dual Power theorizes a
distinct and oppositional relationship between the forces of
state/capitalism and the revolutionary forces of oppressed people. The
two can never be peacefully reconciled.” This implies the need to further
the advancement of alternative institutions of learning (such
as Liberation Schools in the streets as well as the prisons as we
see beginning to resurface today).

that we must be one auto-didactic (self-taught) + not only
the liberating literature that we study, but also as sincere students
the adventure of life! For while it’s necessary to firmly grasp the
‘meaning of life with our minds, (to paraphrase Paracelsus) - to
study Nature, we must travel her books with our feet. Moreover, we
need to have each other’s backs while working in tandem together.

‘As Mumm pointed out, “Counter power and counter-

institutional organizations must be in relationship to each other. The
value of reconnecting counter-institutional organizations with
explicitly oppositional counter-institutional organizations is a
‘safeguard against the formers’ tendency to become less radical over
time.” James Mumm)

For DUAL POWER to begin transforming our communities & our lives,
our essential needs must include,
(Ona personal level}:

+ the overstanding that despite how poor we are and
regardless of how many of us the system murders,
imprisons and oppressed — we must deeply root
Within ourselves a firm overstanding that we are
not inferior (nor “superior,” for that matter to anyone
else),

‘+ the overstanding that we have the ability of making a

radical difference in the world we live in,

‘+ that we develop self-confidence instead of wallowing in
the more of self-doubt.
‘On the grassroots/social level, these needs include):

* “strategic non-compliance”/ using a diversity of tactics

to reach specific goals. Be
This should include that community organizers:

«Greate a “phone tree” of contacts who know

how to turn on electricity and water when
landlord’s/banksters turn them off, for when we

‘the supreme goal of the PEOPLE (of which we're a

our communities.

It’s our class that’s been defending the interests of the ruling class by
serving in their military abroad, while the police oppress and continue
to gun us down right here in the crooked streets of amerika
The only reasonable alternative for us to arrive at, as an oppressed and
exploited people, is to stop working for the
system and collectively begin broadly working against it.
Setting our differences aside (at least long enough to
collectively strike) will surely propel us forward. This change in
consciousness will mentally reflect in the change in concrete
conditions as well, and elevate us. é
The stave-born T. Thomas Fortune wrote that “Men organize themselves
"for mutual protection.” it’s evident that today, to protect
| our neighborhoods from fascist police, slumlords and other predators of
"the people, we must work towards overthrowing and collectively
| overtaking them ~ which we can do relatively intact (as advised by Sun
Tau in The Art of War).

“The evil,” Mr. Fortune reminded us, “is for deeper than the throne, and
cannot be remedied by striking the occupant of it~ the throne itself
‘must be rooted out and demolished.” It’s the very idea of Government
that must firstly be fundamentally & thoroughly overthrown. “It is this

| System which constitutes the real grievance and makes the landlord an
odious loafer with abundant cash and the laborer a constant

_ toler always upon the verge of starvation. Evidently, therefore,” Mr.
Fortune logically reasoned, "to remove the landlord and leave the
system of land Monopoly would not remove the evil. Destroy the
latter {land monopoly] and the former [the landlord] would be

Locally, it’s time we get out of the habit of surrendering our potential
to government institutions & get into the habit of thinking along the
lines of People’s Power for ourselves and our children.

It’s a world-wide imperative that we organize with the working-class in
other countries to effectively strike against imperialism and aggressive
corporate globalization!

People everywhere are beginning to stir and now's the Time to make
the necessary coalitions at home & abroad with those who are
solidarity-minded. Our commitment will be answered in proportion to
the destiny that we question, and the question of our destiny will be
answered in proportion to our commitment.




The next time you find yourself depressed at a job you can’t stand or
find yourself one paycheck away from being homeless, think about the
‘words of this writing. The growing thrust towards socio-economic
revolution includes YOU! You're not alone in your situation,

we've grown insane in civilization, where the conformity into being law-
abiding citizens only leads to the exploitation and inferiorization of the
masses. The hunger, thirst, and isolation of those of us who thrive on
society's margins no longer find morale in being imprisoned by the
‘oppressive government powers. We can only find ourselves becoming
truly cultured and sane in being un-civilized and we discover

‘our humynity ethically in becoming “immoral.” {“immoral” is an
adjective and is defined as: not conforming to accepted forms of
‘morality.] Against the Establishment which is based on

bloodshed, isolation and greed, we find ourselves no longer being lost.

On Alchemy and the Revolutionary Mind

‘Alchemy has been described as the science of transmutating base ‘
metals into material gold. a
In 1689, King Henry IV “declared the multiplying of metals to be a crime |
‘against the crown.” The Act was later repealed by William and Mary

who together ascended the throne in England,” encouraging alchemists

to continue honing the craft (for personal gain for the Kingdom, no

doubt:)

The roots of alchemy, however, reach further back into antiquity and

imply the need for a deeper understanding. It was

considered “the master science of the Egyptians.” Chem ( short

for (Chemet, or, “Kemet”) was an ancient name for the land of Egypt;

and both words “alchemy” and “chemistry” are a perfect reminder

of the priority of Egypt's scientific knowledge.” (Manly P. Hall, “The

Secret Teachings of All Ages”).

Despite the fact that many considered it, superficially, as a science of
changing base metals, they fail to realize that alchemy (on a deeper
evel) involves the transmutating of one’s mental state into spiritual
gold. Thus, true and personal alchemy is a Revolutionary Science; for it’s
a science of revolutionaries, in the deepest sense of the word.

Alchemy as a Revolutionary Science

‘The Revolutionary mind is goal-oriented and involves personal
refinement and transformation. Being psychologically enslaved and
ignorant of the powers that we possess as rational beings, we've been
coerced into accepting impoverishment & degeneration of our minds,
bodies and spirits for the greater part of our lives. 4
‘The revolutionary recognizes that regeneration begins in the mind, and
hones this craft for the “goldening” of self & others. This can (at first) be
2 painful process as it involves healing from painful memories and
purification from the social ils the majority of us have been ee
programmed into accepting. a

“Try not to blame yourself if you've made emotional mistakes. For our

transformation to occur, the fires of crisis must burn hot ~ that is why

crises are life-altering experiences and pain is our greatest
teacher.” (Jacquelyn Small)

‘As touched on earlier, throughout life we've accepted ideas that've 4.
enslaved us in one way or another. With all our mistakes &
imperfections, however, we have within us the elements necessary to
nurture the seeds of free-thinking and overstanding of Purpose.

As revolutionaries, we have these seeds within us all; and as Hall

wrote, “Alchemy is not the process of making something from nothing; it
is the process of increasing and improving that which already

exists.” (The Secret Teachings of All Ages)

in the 21* century, the refinement (and multiplying) of the
revolutionary Mind in the prisons & streets pose a living threat in the
invaluable fervor mounting to overthrow the crown of government
power. A power which knows it will inevitably be toppled, paradoxically,
by the very social forces it has struggled so hard to create! (e.g., Counter
Intelligence officials resort to physical, psychological & chemical

warfare (drugs, as the Ervins teach) to destroy opposition and
perpetuate exploitation. (Organizers in penitentiaries are separated
from the general prison population out of fear of the potential which
can foment due to an ever-evolving Mental up-rising.)



















These are but few ways in which the government apparatus fights to
repress and “de-generate” us. It sticks us in a rut and molds us mentally
from birth in the hands of social conformity. Those in power who govern
and exploit us harbor an inherent fear that the masses will arm
ourselves with revolutionary ideology and “change our minds.”

Revolutionary Consciousness
instead of letting your mind have control over you; resolve within
yourself to have control over your mind. All things revolutionary begin
with a conscious awareness of our situation. And as Jacquelyn Small
wrote once: “We must have an image of something in our minds before
it con be created. This psychological law explains sayings like ‘thought is
creative’ and ‘energy follows thought.”

Alchemy, as a personal, revolutionary science has the power of
manifesting the potential the people socially can possess ~ from the cell
to the society that the cell represents. in a social context, the aichemicai
process can be referred to as “building the new society in the shell of the
oe

ina world where the majority of us are driven to feeling worth-less, our
foundation as a force of change must include overstanding our Purpose
in life. Na'im Akbar shared this overstanding when he

penned that “Every person learns within the context of their

education that they were born to execute some type of mission towards
‘the advancement of humankind and each person must seek to

‘identify what their mission might be.”







“Extremism in the defense of liberty is no vice. Moderation in the pursuit

of justice is no virtue.” ~ Malcolm x
Being that the needs of the many outweigh the needs of the few,
extreme measures need to be undertaken to bring balance (Maat,
as the Ancient Egyptians called it) into our lives and the lives of our
people. To transform ourselves as individuals, and to
effectively revolutionize our social conditions we need to
be motivated with the overstanding that revolution implies radical
change. A revolutionary spirituality implies the need for us to spiritualize
the material aspects of our lives .aha to materialize the spiritual élements,
within us as we advance.




























The Factories, The Fields, and
the Firearms to Defend Them

“The working class is able, once it so desires, to take control of
industry and thus establish a much more efficient and satisfactory
society.”



(From the pamphlet: “One Big Union," by The Industrial Workers ofthe World)



You, me and our entire class of society's underprivileged who
produces everything with very little or nothing at all to show for
it have - once effectively organized - the potential within us to
free ourselves from the stresses that come with the struggle for
survival of material needs.

LT










While the study below is based on research conducted in 2020,
the final analysis will be found to resonate up to the hour the bell
of the social revolution is sounded. It’s of the deepest importance
for the masses - the have-nots who've been no strangers to
struggling since we were born - to firmly grasp the magnificence
of our Worth, and our potential and power. Our Potential for
freeing ourselves from being taken advantage of by the

+ government system is overwhelmingly greater than that of
the government system taking advantage of us all!






This has been a very fortunate truth for the less-fortunate of the
world ever since societies have allowed governments to exist, and
our social contract with the State has proven to be nothing less
than a taxing, hostile machine worth defying and reducing to
irreparable ashes.
‘The more the righteous seeds of becoming free from social &
economic oppression be planted richly in the minds of the poor
and oppressed who are governed, the greater the potential
becomes to overthrowing the government with overwhelming
resistance; especially when the rational alternative of governing
ourselves (exercising autonomy) is given the necessary attention
it deserves deep in the roots of our ethical nature.

“The working class and the employing class have nothing in
common. There can be no peace so long as hunger and want
are found among millions of the working people, and the
few, who make up the employing class have all the good
things in life.”

(From the Preamble to The WW)

ss of 2018, there are ‘approximately 29,285 functioning factorie:

hese are operated by 12.8 million people. This doesn't include the
Additional 760,000 workers employed by temporary employment
gencies, nor the unseen thousands of Prisoners manufacturing products
prison factories throughout the U.S. We constitute an entire army of
‘oduction ~ one which can be victorious against poverty and capitalist
“eed when we unify to no longer demand, but to deliberately act to
rectly fulfil our neglected needs!
\e far outnumber the 249,962 factory-owning firms that has our class
truggling day after day as wage-slaves, on a ratio of §1 — 1. In other
rords, for every one factory owner profiting luxuriously from everything.
vat the workers produce, there are Fifty-One workers who can deny
agitimacy to their authority and secure the factories for the workers and
ye dis-possessed communities the workers are from!

his is why joining workers’ unions, like the IWW, is paramount in building
ue Peoples’ Power, as it swells the ranks of organized resistance

jainst our common exploiter — the capitalist class. Unifying to receive

'e fruits of our labor, as the deserving class that does all the work, will
‘fiect the desire of a people sick of being daily consumed by the parasitic
ite who feast luxuriously off our bodies and minds.

uch a federation of Unions (which are frankly, organizations of workers
ho want something better anyway) will reserve an arsenal of potential in
‘e palms of our very hands. We possess, within, the ability to paralyze
‘e power of those who economically muscle over us with full-blown
ieneral (Work) Strikes. We harness potential in providing free food,
‘thing, housing, transportation, cellphones and all other means of
ommunication freely to our communities, which will be soon
cknowledged as “a given” - the way that things should've been, from the
ary start. 4


(Intercontinental Connections)

The U.S. government - through i's Free Trade Agreements (FTA) — is
currently partners with 20 countries; countries that purchased nearly 49%
percent of goods manufactured in its factories.

‘These 20 countries includes Canada geographically above and Mexico
located below.

While these (20) countries only make up six percent of the world's
population, banding together with workers in these countries alone will
work exponentially more in our favor. Collectively understanding the need
for overthrowing our capitalist governments will be the pivotal move in
providing the material security needed for us — the less-fortunate class —
to receive the fruits of our labor in these (20 countries) and beyond.

‘THE FIELDS

“Imust intervene in teaching the peasants that their hunger
is socially constructed and work with them to help identify those
responsible for this social construction, which i, in my view, a
crime against humanity.”
~ Paulo Freire

‘The amerikan government doesn't have the best interest of the
people it governs at heart.

For example, according to the 2020 repoft from the Center for
Responsive Politics in Washington DC, lobbying (the act of using
persuasion to attempt to create a climate of opinion favorable to
a desired legislative goal), reveals its use as a lucrative tactic by
agribusiness people in persuading U.S. legislators in 2019, and it's
been avery compromising issue for years. 9.4
‘The capitalists in the agribusiness industry are huge donors to
political parties, contributing over sn8 million from the sweat of,
farm laborers in the 2016 presidential cycle, and more than $92
million, in 2018! Since 990, the majority of such millions were
given to the Republican and Democratic parties.

Huge contributions from these predatory businesspeople were
also donated to Liberal, Conservative, as well as Nonpartisan
Groups. Each year, hundreds of thousands of dollars - fleeced
from the farmers’ output - are generously placed into the bank
accounts of political members of the Senate and House of
Representatives that influence the politics that we find ourselves
itching for relief from today.

Moreover, as a 2017 study published through AG Daily analyzed:
“Between 2004 and 2014,...databases show foreign investors
doubled their American farmland holdings, growing from 13.7
million to 27.3 million acres which is approximately the size of
‘Tennessee. And while this represents only about 2 percent of
total US. farmland, the value of the land in question leapt from
17.4 billion to $42.7 billion during the same period, according to
US. Department of Agriculture.”



‘The capitalists - those who take advantage of others for their
personal gain - are an offensive presence in general; especially to
those of us who know what it’s like to be ripped-off and taken
advantage of for all of our lives. The cliché that “Business is never
personal” is ironically spoken from the lips of the very ones who
make it their personal business to exploit you. A philosophy of
the parasite, meant to disarm you from resisting your and your
People’s economic oppressors.

‘Across the country, the vast majority of economically oppressed
people (such as us) make a social revolution against our

an
‘economic oppressors not only necessary, but inevitable as well;
and if the System that's taken advantage of us all of our lives gets
the audacity to ask why we've chosen a social revolution against,
its government, we can, in right conscience, reply “You reap what
you sow!"



























‘THE FIREARMS

“Do not confound us with the pacifists. We believe in fighting..and
wwe refuse to fight for the enemies and exploiters of humanity.
Alexander Berkman

While a non-violent revolution is ideal, in all practicality, the
capitalist government and its armed and handcuff-carrying
police won't surrender to us our fruits for our labor without a
fight. And we shouldn't expect it to; it knows what it's doing.
It’s inconsolably heartbreaking that of the 38. million of us
documented as living in statistical poverty throughout the U.S.,
an unnecessary 16% (1.9 million) are children. This is
unnecessary: Over 40.8 % of agricultural land exists in this
country; and our class operates over 30,000 factories, producing
everything that we've been ordered to buy or face arrest, the
billyclub or the bullet.



Arrecent report from the Graduate Institute of International
Development Studies in Geneva reported that the U.S. ranks 1st
in the highest gun ownership rate: 120.5 per 100 people. Yemen
ranks and in countries in high gun ownership rate at 52.8 per 100



people. Canada - where 135 million (mainly Indigenous) children
live in poverty - ranks sth in the world’s highest gun ownership
rate.









It should also be grasped that these numbers don't include
firearms owned by law enforcement agencies or militaries, of
whom we outnumber with staggering odds at a maximum ratio
of 1000 to 6.
"odds are in the favor of the People, who are more than able to

‘outgun those enforcing the law with overwhelming resistance,

___ the means of production and distribution,

_ You can't grow an ear of corn from the barrel of a shotgun, but
you can use the shotgun to defend the soil that the ear of corn

‘working-class of us have-nots who operates its entire
production.

FROM GANG WAR TO CLASS WAR:

‘The Acquisition of and Redirecting of Community Firepower

“Those who make peaceful revolution impossible makes a violent revolution
inevitable." John F. Kennedy

| would be illogical to conceive that a future free of being justifiably gunned-
down & exploited will be reached without such an element of self-defense

(e,, armed rebellion) under an explotive order whose history is founded &
‘maintained by the use of violent force and the (obvious) deadly threat of its

‘Many gang bangers already possess the germ of a revolutionary, unawares.
‘So many of us who grew up in this atmosphere know poverty on a personal
level. Alt of us come from marginalized upbringing; bearing the emotional
‘scars of a broken home. Many of us were even physically, sexually and
mentally abused.

‘Thrown in juvenile detention & devoid of adequate family attention, we
desperately sought to relieve ourselves from alienation by forming fraternal
bonds.

‘The hugs we didnt find in the household, we found in gang-affiiated

‘handshakes out in the hood and ju-v. We grew up knowing poverty, warfare

and the necessity for organization, first-hand.

Class war is the social conflict resulting from inequalities in a society based on

hierarchy and privilege (e.g.. a society where there are “haves” while there are
“have-nots,” “privileged” and “underprivileged”).

Its the Struggle deep in the ancestral roots of our anti-colonial culture

which dares to resist for dignity & Self-Determination of the People all over

the govemed world,

“The genocide which has been kiling us off, in actuality, bear witness to the
degree of arsenal we have at our immediate (and potential) disposal should
‘our firearms become collectively redirected in a united struggle for social
liberation.

‘The Zapatistas in southern Mexico who've freed themselves from




‘government rule since 1994 well understood Emiliano Zapata when he
‘advised: “Do not approach the government with hat in hand but with rifle in
fist"!

The liberation of a community from government force requires an assisting
‘organization of anti-government rebels with arms,

All governments are viscerally opportunists and can't cease from
descending into democratically-deprived community any more than a
vulture can a victim of starvation deliriously staggering along the path of
destruction,

The purpose for arming ourselves along these revolutionary lines include:

* to prevent forced evictions & to protect neighborhoods engaging in
urban squatting & Rent Strikes

‘+ _ to protect our communities from unwanted aggressors (esp. law
enforcement): in short, to defend ourselves in every sector of the Resistance
by use of arms when such reinforcements are needed.

The Movement will also find it exponentially substantial to manufacture our
‘own artillery. The information on how to do this can easily be found in
various books.

We share a responsibilty against the Forces of social domination, and as
‘evolutionary anarchists we must strive to make our practice our theory and
‘our theory our practice.

To Everyone With a Gun in the Ghetto

To every gangbanger. To every dope dealer. To every stick-up kid. To
‘everyone who's packing heat for protection or otherwise. To all who wake up
with a gun at your bedside:

Know that you're worth immeasurably more than the bank accounts of all
the owners of your city's downtown buildings, combined. Reflect on your life
and prepare for the social revolution against the government system which

‘could care less if you starve or eat, goto prison for the rest of your life, if you
live or you die.

‘Arm yourself with the knowledge presented to you from our underground
pamphlets and books. They are complementary weapons which aim to assist
‘you & our people from the parasites in power who exist to suck you dry
from all your potential. We encourage you to re-define your relationship
with your rivals and consider who the opposition of you and those like you
truly, essentially are and to reserve your bullets for worthier targets, as you
study. A class war is being organized throughout the world in the Struggle
{for self-determination; by the have-nots of the world who recognize that,
according to the universal principle of Cause and Effect, we have the power

within us to take our destinies into our own hands.

‘Awar to determine your destiny instead of having your destiny continuing
being determined by a system that doesn't have your best interest at heart is
ppethaps the most significant decision you could ever make in the history of
your life.
