Reflection on ADOS

[d_the_inc]

I'm a pan africanist, so my opinions will be biased towards diaspora thinking. One of the by products of oppression is divisiveness. It's divisive to suggest which group of Africans who endured slavery in the Caribbean, Americas, Europe etc...had it worst. That system was disruptive and pure hell for all Africans...none of us had it easier. Sure, there were different occurrences and historical references that took place, but the net net is that we all suffered and continued to evolve from this system. We all have taken on the oppressors name, gods, customs, language etc...

I get why a term like ADOS might have appeal, but what are we really repping? Another term that further divides us and falsely believe that we are somehow different. Meanwhile Mr. MAGA, and his global conspirators are enacting policies that further supplant our peoples.

I love the debate and the passion; but keep in mind that when cops don't ask to see a ADOS card before they shoot. We're one people, with different perspectives and experiences and a common enemy, searching for a common solution.

Peace

Who's more authentically "black" doesn't matter when they still calling you "nigga".

 

[YoungSinister]

Fuck off
Slaves built this country, and their descendants are owed for the blood and sweat
There’s no division. It’s about a group getting what is owed to them
Fuck this stupid ass thread

ADOS refers to the group of people who have been systematically denied benefits and opportunites. Skin color is a irrlelevant. People come to America from other countries to recieve unearned benefits, while ADOS have been locked out of those benefits. Wasn't no Nigerians or Carribieans coming over her when they were drafting for the Vietnam war now were they?

A lot in the civil rights movement and certainly in the military were Caribbean

True. But you get the gist of it.

Let's not forget that some of these nations are victims of US imperialism....nothing happens in a vacuum Boss...not debating Black Americans right to self identify, (not sure why anyone would) but that come here for unearned benefits line sounded like you were unaware of US imperialism and aggression on some of these nations...people come here because their spot is fucked up and for many of them, definitely the Caribbeans, the US had a hand in that

I don’t owe them island niggas shit

 

[ankhheru]

This is why the ADOS movement is important. Now that the talk of reparations is starting to get some political traction different groups are trying to hitch their wagons onto our struggle and dictate when the starting point to claim reparations begins so they can claim benefits. Like that bitch from New York that just got elected that I warned BGOL about during the mid terms. Everybody was giggidy giggidy about this bitch because they was hoping for sexual access but she ran on a Puerto Rican platform. Well now she's trying to say all non whites are due reparations thanks to the new deal and reparations should only go back to the new deal so all non whites qualify. Fuck you very much. This is why ADOS matters

That is false.

There is a segment of people within the movement who have been telling you lies and you buying it all the way.

Thats exactly where the division comes in.

 

[AllUniverse17]

Again, for the record, I would do my best to help ADOS get reperations in any way I can.

I see fear tactics being pushed along in the movement so that Im speaking against that but other then that, Im all for it.

I would refer you to any of the writings of Dr. Claude Anderson on the subject of unearned benefits and non-natives.

I will check him out...my post was just an FYI in case anybody thought people just showed up out of nowhere....reparations from the USA should go to Black Americans only....Jamaicans should request reparations from Britain (we did, they offered to build us a prison) , Haiti from France etc...anybody who is trying to fuck with ADOS and their rights to their own specific reparations from the USA is fuckery

 

[Mello Mello]

Correct me if I’m wrong but I believe the distinction of ADOS is for purposes of making a claim toward reparations from the United States.

 

[ankhheru]

And here's this bitch trying to claim access to reparations already by saying all non whites should get it and it should only go back to the new deal in order to qualify.

[ankhheru]

All of those black folks that aren't ADOS understand the ramifications of receiving reparations if we start attaching ADOS to reparations.

 

[ankhheru]

If we do get reparations expect all non whites to hitch along just like they did with the Civil Rights movement. The only way to stop it is through ADOS.

I like this chick but she is very wrong for this....AAs and Native Americans have a claim for justice that goes above all others....the treatment of both groups was at another level...her approach undermines that claim

Let those native Americans fight their own fight. My concern is for those who stepped off the slave ships and stood on the auction block.

American Descendants of Slaves

As I said from the beginning....any Black American who supports her is a fucking weirdo

So going forward how is this case being presented for those who are descended from slaves?

I heard the Dems were trying to make a case for higher education and health care. I guess what I’m asking is what is our role in this? Should we be reaching out to our state reps etc

Native Americans got to keep all that casino money and chose not to acknowledge any with half parentage or heritage. Our we going to pattern our claim the same way.

 

[Camille]

I personally don't like it. White folks look everyday to other us and make us less American. This just serves to further do so, imo. When racists see black skin, no one is checking heritage before they give or deny a job, call the cops or attack them. I don't have the time and energy for all this, but more power to those who do and choose to participate.

Your dam right. Also fielding those same questions to presidential hopefuls and any other political contenders that expect our votes. If we don't we will have another senator like that bitch from New York in office talking out their asses and we gave them our support.

This is about resources. Nothing more and nothing less. We can't change how white folks view us but we can try and change how we get our slice of the pie divided

 

[ankhheru]

Whenever you hear a political party start to have a real conversation about something like civil rights or reparations expect some action behind it. They are jockeying for position to divide the pie and ADOS will get the short stick. Just like we did with POC and minority groupings. If we don't get ahead of this shit now we won't have shit to show for our ancestors bleeding and dying in this country. I promise you.

 

[SPECTRE1]

As seen by the video, the slave trade was an arms length transaction between Africans and European commercial interests. Pan- Africanist want to establish a link with Africans who sold you for weapons to Europeans which does not make sense. When Africans come here, their ancestors sold you to Europeans, their issue with whites is them violating their sovereignty later through colonization attempts. An African and white president of the United States is not ADOS. We should be getting reparations from European and African nations for the slave trade.

Many of these clowns on YouTube that put on African clothes, are ignorant fools, much the same way as the stalkers that bait me into threads on BGOL.

Don’t be goofy. This is about resources that are owed to us. Nothing more.

If ADOS were to get reparations watch how many Hebrew Israelites and Moors will pop up jumping in line!
