I am absolutely enamored w/ the very concept of The Black Woman. She is my physical & spiritual complement. I recognize the beauty & intellect of Other Women, but The Black Woman is My Counterpart. NO ONE knows Me like She does. I can B My Unapologetic Self w/ her. She is a wonderful mix of Beauty, Wisdom, & Strength. She IS The Gateway 2 The Divine. Society has tried 2 pit Black Men & Women against each other, but We have a Covenant. WeR the 1st Born of The Most High.
When We ‘Work’, The World 'Works’. The 'ills’ of The World, can B linked 2 the oppression of Black/ Indigenous People globally. Curious how EVERY GROUP has an issue w/ Black/ Indigenous People, but NO ONE can give an example of 'Black Hegemony’ perpetrated on Any of these 'Groups’. I can feel Myself retreating from Society, & shifting My attention more on the Women in My Life: My Queen, The Elders, Sisters, & The Babies who will B Future Queens… If We want 2 reestablish Our Position, We 1st have 2 reestablish Our Relationship as Men & Women. Man may B The Will, but Wo(mb)Man IS The Way.
Wanna burn down the patriarchy? Stay hydrated. Raise your voice. Show up. Gather. Seek safe spaces. Talk about it. Don’t do it alone. I’m with you sisters and I’m mad too, but please please please don’t forget you. The world deserves your self care. The world deserves your health. The world deserves your stamina and longevity. This is a war on women. The world deserves us to show up as our best selves, not depleted, not desperate. We are warriors, but better. Thank you for fighting. Take care of yourself. I love you. Fuck the patriarchy. Women rise.

As the world shifts and division and strife driven by patriarchal systems increase, it is critical that we, the women’s movement, does not lose focus. We must unite to end the exploitation and oppression of people and the planet.
#womenempowerment #women rights #womenrise #equal rights #all rights reserved #women's rights #voting rights
The environmental crisis, the struggle for control of finite natural resources, growing extremes in wealth inequality and the growth of the internet is feeding extremism, conservatism, organized crime, conflict, mistrust and division; provoking vast migrations of people around the world, generating poverty and increasing vulnerability to exploitation.
And it’s the women and girls that are inevitably hit the hardest.
Trafficking for sexual exploitation is a $99bn a year industry, where 96% of all victims are female
137 women across the world are killed by a member of their own family every day
Adolescent girls pay a particularly heavy price
- targeted as they reach puberty, they are vulnerable to sexual predators, victimized for having ‘asked for it’, subjected to harmful practices including child marriage, forced to become mothers after rape and left unprotected and without access to justice as they fall between laws that are designed to protect children or adults.
12 million girls under 18 are married each year
Worldwide, according to a UNICEF report, ‘around 15 million adolescent girls aged 15 to 19 have experienced forced sex at some point in their lifetime’
We have it in our gift to define a new inclusive future, indeed, it is already happening.
Look at Sudan, where women came together to play a central role in the uprising against the dictator President Omar al-Bashir.
Or in India where, in February 2019 thousands of women from across society joined a 10,000 km to raise awareness about the prevalence of rape and demand access to justice.
Or right now, in Lebanon, where women from across social, religious and ethnic divides are joining together to stand on the front lines of protests against the government, pushing back against the power of corruption and elitism that is holding their country back. Standing between security forces and demonstrators, they prevented violence and allowed the people’s voice to be heard.
Let us continue to rise above the divisions created by the patriarchy and seek equality through inclusion.
Prevent: We must dismantle laws that leave girls, women and other marginalized genders vulnerable to exploitation and harm through legal inequality, by ensuring constitutional equality and equality in inheritance, property and tenancy law and employment law among many others.
Protect: We must ensure that laws covering sexual offences, prostitution, trafficking, maritime, immigration, child marriage, FGM, privacy and the internet acknowledge that girls, women and other marginalized genders are subjected to violence and exploitation through coercion - whether social, economic, physical or mental.
Prosecute: We must ensure that sexual violence laws, including definitions of rape and sexual assault, and pathways to justice explore fully the issues of willingness, consent and coercion, do not rely on the ‘use of force’, and address the specific vulnerabilities and needs of adolescent girls.
19 more days of insanity under lockdown. 19 more days of away from beloved. 19 more days of us not protesting in the streets for the unlawful arrest of our Muslim activists. The numbers keep adding. We are unable to get out there protesting for Azaadi as the coronavirus epidemic engulfs the most vulnerable among us. The oppressor must not at any cost think we will not fight back. We will rise.

So I went to the Women’s March in Sacramento today. I have no words to describe the energy there. Indigenous women and other women of color led the way. Men stood by the women they love. Children saw their mothers, grandmothers, aunts, cousins, and sisters show up for something they believed in. #womensmarch #womensmarchsacramento #boycottdriscolls #itdoesntendhere #womenrise (at California State Capitol) https://www.instagram.com/p/B7exaRchc45/?igshid=aj4srm0800fb
The recent rise in momentum of the #MeToo Movement, & the swelling #TimesUp Movement caused me to reflect on how they became so popular. To get a holistic view, I turn to history. Western Society holds the “Alpha Male” as the natural leader of The Masses, but it is the same Alpha Male Types that are being exposed as liars, cheaters, & sexual deviants… How did THEY become ’The Chosen Ones’?
The Alpha Type is traditionally known as a Man of strength, intelligence, & IMPULSE. When we look at this Personality a little closer, we find that there is more than one Alpha Male ‘Type’. Intelligence is a common denominator, but [display of] strength & impulse varies. We already know who they are. We have names for them like: Psychopath, Sociopath, Little Emperor, Brainiac, Warrior, Vigilante, Hero, Adventurer, Head of Household, Ladies Man, among others. What they ALL have in common, are the ideas of domain & property.
The Alpha Male & Female are a Western Phenomenon. That does not mean that EveryCaucasian exhibits Alpha Behavior, but it does mean that Every Alpha is of Caucasian Descent. I submit that 'Alpha Behavior’ exhibited by Black & Brown People is learnedbehavior. In their Natural Environment, these individuals would have faced a Council of Elders, or a Tribunal to explain their actions. True Alpha Types are individualists- they are not beholden to any protocol that does not benefit them.
Looking back through History, we see that the prototypical Alpha Male was most likely Alexander of Macedonia. He was an intelligent warrior, but he was also a megalomaniac with a 'God Complex’. His successor, Ptolemy I Lagus craved deification enough to 'persuade’ a group of Memphite Coptic Priests to craft the 'god’, Serapis Soter in his honor. A deity meant to equal Ausar (Osirus) & Ra (Apis), Serapis Soter (Serapis The Savior) has been worshipped through The Ages, as “The God of the Alpha Male”. His philosophy is: Might makes Right.
Over the Centuries, the Alpha Male gained Global Dominance by means of Terror (Vandalism, Barbarism) & Military Might. If we credit Alexander w/ initiating this trend, when he entered Kamit (Ancient Egypt) in 332 B.C.E.- 2018 A.D. marks 2,350yrs of Alpha MaleDomination. Over the Millennia, the Alpha Male learned to respect Religion’s influence over The Masses. To garner support, they rationalized their quest for World Domination, was in the name of their Alpha Male God. They were Chosen to fulfill a Destiny.
Their Philosophy goes against the Laws of Nature; Nature has been cruel, & has left him wanting… As a result, Western Civilization expanded- to the chagrin of the rest of The World. Over the last 2,350yrs, untold Millions of Land & Sea Creatures have been exterminated to the point of Extinction. Human populations have also been exterminated by the Millions. Afrikan & Aboriginal Tribes like the Herero & Tasmanian, along w/ many Aboriginal Cultures in The Americas have been slaughtered to Extinction by Fortune Hunters, posing as Explorers.
This Personality Type needs to be worshipped, sometimes above all else. His Religion encourages dominance of Individuals over one another; w/ an 'Ultimate Alpha’ (The Uber Mensch) standing over all other Alpha Types. The Masculine- Feminine Duality Principle found in ancient Spiritual Systems are ignored. In fact, Alpha Male Religious Systems completely remove the Female Persona from the Devine Equation. We are left w/ a 'Father God’, a [Male] Prophet, & a temperamental, unpredictable Mother Nature- that needs to be conquered by Determined Men.
Women are generally respected as Child bearers; Alpha Males are big on genetic survival. Otherwise, Women are viewed either as Commodities, or necessary inconveniences to be tolerated. As such, Women in these Societies are pushed to the extreme of [accepting their] victimhood, or the opposite extreme of the 'Alpha Female’… I believe the middle ground for Women may have been the various Sisterhood Guilds (Covenants), that “The Church” (all denominations) associated w/ Witchcraft & Devil worship. This, is most likely where The Women’s Movement (against Alpha Men) started.
Over the Centuries, Women gained momentum; becoming louder & bolder in asserting themselves. Alpha Men were caught in a conundrum- They need Women for breeding, but they frowned on Women having Freedom of Expression. The flood gates opened after WW II; Women were hitting the workforce en masse, & the 1950s ushered in the Birth Control Pill. Now, Women can afford to make their Own decisions. The next hurdle, may have been repeal of Anti Miscegenation Laws, in 1969. Women not only had Free Love, but were now free to express Who to Love.
If one assumes that Women these Alpha Types choose as mates, are likely to be oppressed; one can also assume that other Women, within his reach, are likely to be violated. We can empathize (to a degree) w/ the plight of these 'mates’, but We also point out Women who were terrorized, sometimes mercilessly by these Men. The list of so called 'Gentlemen’, from every Industry, that have been called to account for their behavior towards Acquaintances, Associates, Clients, Colleagues, Congregants, Co-Workers, Customers, Employees, Friends, Guests, Interns, Neighbors, Patients, Students, & Subordinates is staggering! Looking at how this 'System’ works, may be the best way to understand how this can happen.
The Alpha Type is cunning. He uses force when necessary, but he is an excellent recruiter. The truth is, We live in an “If you can’t beat em, join em” Society. The Cultural Mantras are: 'Fake it, 'til you Make it’, & 'Get in where you Fit it’. Many weaker personality types have benefited from the exploits of Alpha Men. In return, these types may turn a blind eye to an Alpha’s 'indescretion’. Men that behave this way, are classically known as “Opportunists”. They regularly use Alpha Male tactics to exploit Women for sexual gain. Bill O'Reilly, Harvey Weinstein, Matt Laurer, Charlie Rose, & Larry Nasser fit these models.
They are able to get away w/ many indiscretions, mainly, because they are viewed as the 'Lesser Evil’. As bad as the above are, their Bosses are much worse. Men like Roger Ailes, Steve Wynn, & Les Moonves are examples of 'Moguls’. These are the Captains of Industry that behave above The Law. It almost seems like the same drive that makes them wealthy, makes them morally bankrupt. They honestly believe they can buy their way out of any situation. The backlash from #MeToo, has been traumatic for these men used to having their way.
Through their exploits over the last 500yrs, 'Alpha Types’ have collectively amassed the Lion’s share of Global Wealth (currently in use). In that regard, They are better known as 'The 1%’ or 'The Globalists’. They have created a System that allows them to continue unaffected, while “Proxies” take the brunt of any attack against them. With each generation, Proxies rise through the ranks, until reaching their own level of prominence. The Family names are a literal Who’s who in All areas of Industry.
In America, following the “Panic of 1837”, Morgan, Rockefeller, Harriman, Vanderbilt, & Carnegie are among the families that rise to prominence. Behind them came Hearst, Getty, Ford, Roosevelt, Bush, Kennedy, et al. Current times seen the rise of Bloomberg, Buffet, Clinton, Gates, Soros, along w/ the Entertainment Moguls. In this current Generation of Proxies rising to prominence, Trump stands out. On the surface, he comes across like a modern day John Jacob Astor- loud, obnoxious, & intolerant; but Astor was really rich!
Like Astor, Trump markets himself as a 'Self Made Man’, but he doesn’t deny that he rides on his father Fred’s coattails. He bodaciously stamps his name on All of his Projects; using 18K Gold letters to imply that he either has the 'Midas Touch’, or that he is the 'GoldStandard’.Roy Cohn & Wilbur Ross should get the credit for making Donald Trump Who & What he is- Cohn, for getting Trump out the Outer Boroughs & into the Manhattan Market; Ross for getting him out of Bankruptcy.
Donald Trump has made his brashness a literal trademark. He comes across like a Don Rickles impersonator, but Rickles was a Comedian. Real Estate Moguls shouldn’t mimic 'angry clowns’. Like a lot of Modern Day Alpha Men, Donald Trump needed a 'boost’. The current climate of competition for Education, Jobs, a Home or Apartment, has Alphas crying foul! They are supposed to have an easier way than Everyone else. It is ordained (in their Laws).
In this regard, Society is mimicking the Greco Roman Model. We have reached a level of specialization, that naturally triggers the decay of a Culture. The Alpha Type may be a Natural Leader, but there hasn’t been a need of [Real] leadership for 100yrs. Domestic Terrorism & Chemical Warfare have washed the Fighting Spirit out of many, including Alphas. Today’s Society, is a Stimulus based 'Construct’ that relies on Wall Street, Hollywood, & Dwight Eisenhower’s “Military Industrial Complex” to keep The Masses in line w/ The Agenda (Capitalism, Racism/ White Supremacy, New World Order, ect)…
As I stated earlier, the Alpha Type, is an individualist by nature. He created the Concept of Europa- to establish a Group Identity & the Philosophy of White Supremacy- to excuse his 'Animal Nature’, or lack of Humanity. He prides himself on his ability to dominate; however, the rest of The World follows a protocol of Civility. The ability to negotiate via The Art of Persuasion, or Rhetorical Skill, is greatly respected. In the case of the Alpha Male, The Historical Record tells the same story in Every Region- a Lifestyle before & after Alpha Types appear.
Every Nation that the Alpha Male 'discovered’, has suffered a loss of their Social Mores. The Alpha Invaders possess superior Technology, but lacks Culture. As a result, they tend to follow & adopt the local customs of the Societies they invade. Even when Alphas were relatively civil, Native People died from diseases that they carried. During their tenure, Alphas have lived a lifestyle of excess that has left Planet Earth worse for wear… It appears that 2,350yrs is long enough. Multiple Events seem to be converging on Alpha Males simultaneously; front & center, is the #MeToo Movement.
The greatest challenge to the Woman’s Movement, to date, has to be the issue of Rape. It has been a 'Tried & True’weapon of the Alpha Male for Millennia. That said, a New Day is dawning. Men are being held accountable for their [past] actions. Women are gaining momentum, as they stand up to the men that have Sexually Assaulted them. The spike in the number of attacks on Women Nationally, is more than a coincidence. The resilience of Women, collectively fed up w/ the status quo is awesome to watch, as they take to The Streets in Every City. The Men look befuddled, like they honestly don’t know what is going on.
If Alexander of Macedonia represents the initial bookend of Alpha Male Rule, Donald Trump makes a fitting conclusion. The Social Climate surrounding his Presidency mirrors the overall decay of Western Culture Globally. Trump’s exceptionalism, is in how quickly he triggered the Social 'tailspin’. He generates Hope in his followers, but unlike Obama, Trump uses his platform to create divisions.
He skillfully works the emotions of 'Ultraconservatives’ looking for scapegoats to excuse their own mediocrity; while giving others permission to [outwardly] express their xenophobic bigotry. Combined w/ Mass Shootings & attacks on Women, it looks like Alphas are resorting to Domestic Terrorism, in an effort to make a 'Last Stand’ of sorts. Their actions are pretty blatant at this point. Fear mongering, is a classic Alpha tactic for creating discord. In the end, Alphas believe that Proxies may catch a little Hell, but the Power Brokers will remain untouched.
The Alpha Type’s disdain for Nature, is evident in their disregard for The Environment. They sacrificed Land, Air & Sea, in the name of Profit. The result: Air Pollution, Acid Rain, plus Heavy Metals & other 'Contaminates’ in the Soil & Water Table. Human exposure to them has lead to Birth Defects, Organ Failures, & various Cancers… The Alpha answer? PopulationControl. They have engaged in Eugenics Programs over the years to 'Thin the Herd’, & bolster their numbers, but they are as susceptible as their target group.
'Mother Nature’ appears to be responding Globally to the Alpha’s assault on the Land, Air, & Sea: Europe is on fire, from Siberia to Greece. Hurricanes, Monsoons, Tornadoes, & Typhoons are occurring more often, & for longer Seasons. Earthquakes & Volcanic events are happening more often, & w/ greater intensity. The animals also appear to be making a Stand- We are hearing more stories of Raccoon, Black Bear, & Coyote attacking residents in the Outer Suburbs. Shark attacks have risen dramatically… Over the last 10Yrs, Society has added 'Polar Vortex’ & '500yr Storm’ to it’s working vocabulary.
The Alpha Male is presented as the individual at the Top of the Totem Pole. He is supposed to be the Best among Us. The Truth however, is that the 'Alpha’, is really a prototype of Humanity. Alpha, means First, not Best. The Alpha Male’s rise to prominence, is basically due to Bullying. The more genteel, or refined Types of Humanity have been 'Out Nastied’… A byproduct of the Alpha’s Individuality, is Egocentrism- They are self motivated to a degree that makes “God fearing” people uncomfortable. Alphas simply leverage that 'discomfort’. They have also been able to recruit Opportunists along the way, that are self motivated enough to conspire against their Kinsmen.
Alpha Types have maintained a firm control, but they are being attacked Socially, Environmentally, & Biologically. Ironically, the Biological Front was brought on by their Environmental exploits. Alphas subscribe to a Philosophy of White Supremacy, but that belief is genetically untrue. These same people are The First to be affected by the toxic environment that they created. The number of food allergies, cases of Autism, & Special Needs births are All relative. Their Birth Rate, is on a steady decline. Geneticists speculate that Alpha Men may be completely sterile by 2070. That may explain Hollywood’s passion for Cryogenics, Robotics, & Human Cloning.
Alphas are not blind. They see the Writing on the Wall. They believe that they are prepared; that they have amassed enough Resources & Influence, to endure the coming Social Change. Afterall, they have weathered Cultural Storms in the past. When the dust settles on the New Social Order, Alphas will call a mulligan & begin anew- They have a Formula… It appears that Nature has a Formula of Her own. Today’s Women are motivated;they are rising to prominence in Every Industry. Women represent the majority of High School, College, & Advanced Degree Graduates, so it’s safe to assume that Women WILL be the Future Leaders.
I find it intriguing that Women are becoming more aggressive, while Men- Alpha Men in particular, are having testosterone issues. It’s like a biochemical 'balancing of the scales’ is happening before our eyes. Alpha Types are obsessed w/ maintaining their position, so we are bombarded w/ advertisements for male enhancement drugs; sadly for them, it’s the 'Law of Diminishing Returns’… Alpha Types wanted it All. They desired Omnipotence. They desired Servants- whether serfs, slaves, or share croppers. They have no desire to share resources. There has to be a price to pay, for such a total disregard of Planet Earth (Geb). Even the Atheist believes in the Law of Karma.
The Fate of Alpha Types will depend on their ability to share. The current State of 'The World’, is a direct result of the Alpha Male’s inability to share w/ his neighbor. Poverty, is an Alpha Male creation… The Global Calamity unfolding, could very well be a critical test for the Alpha Male Power Brokers. Are they capable of sharing Resources & Influence?They may have little choice.
We respect their Right to Exist, & understand their (inherent) need to preserve their genetic pedigree, but they created the environmental conditionsthat now threaten their future generations. If they don’t change their method, they face sterility & certain extinction; just like the [other] homonids that came before them. Regardless of what the Alpha Type does, Change is in The Air… Maybe it’s just me, but it looks like Mother Nature is calling on Women to clean up a Man made mess.
