Free Black Thought Compendium

Black Man with Bullhorn with the words Free Black Thought

TL;DR – I spent a month investigating Black History.  Most of the victim narratives are verifiable B-elief S-ystems. Not surprisingly a bunch of them, The NAACP Emmett Till Press Release, The March on Washington, Alex Haley’s Roots and Black Lives Matter catalyzed out of Minnesota’s Twin Cities.

If you’d like to skip the B-elief S-ystems might I suggest you check out the Free Black Thought Compendium and follow them on Twitter.

It’s been six weeks since the shooting at a Richfield High School left the son of a prominent Black Lives Matter activist dead. Cortez Rice was in the County Workhouse when his son Jahmari Rice was shot and killed in the Minnesota School District that had month’s previously been held as the model for proudly teaching Critical Race Theory.

It was the first day of Black History Month. 

Originally, I’d planned on releasing an article about how Minnesotan Roy Wilkins wrote the Emmett Till Press release, co organized the March on Washington and headed the NAACP through the Civil Rights Era.

On Feb. 2nd, Groundhogs Day Minneapolis Police killed Amir Locke in a no knock raid.  Locke’s name was not on the warrant. Police were looking for evidence related to the murder of Black St. Paul, MN father, Otis Elder.

Locke’s cousin Mekhi Speed had been on a month’s long crime spree and police were looking for armor piercing weapons when they saw Locke on the couch with a firearm.  

Speed and Rice both went to the same Junior High School and I have their Vice Principals copy of the CRT training, Courageous Conversations by Glenn Singleton that I’ll be writing about in an upcoming series.

Like Philando Castile (P.C.) before him he brandished a weapon during an investigation of someone who looked like him. Like George Floyd (G.F.) an intentionally inflammatory edit of the video was released to the Press.

Unlike P.C. or G.F., the two biggest events in “Black Lives Matter” history, the deaths of J.R., A.L. or Otis Elder didn’t raise a single blip.

What I Thought

As a memorial to my friend and Minnesota Civil Rights icon and historian, Mr. Ron Edwards I decided to do a daily article on Black History Month from historical source documents. My blog Gender Perceptions that facilitate false accusations and Minnesota Moral Movements.

Since Roy Wilkins was from Minnesota, Alex Haley wrote Roots in Minnesota, Black Lives Matter had their two biggest historical events happen in Minnesota and so many Black History events involve false accusations, this should be easy.

What I Found

Shared narratives hold a society together. Cautionary tales tell us what behaviors to be on alert for in ourselves, others and the culture around us. The tale of the Scottsboro Boys, Emmett Till and The Central Park Birding Incident are morality tales that bind us together and keep us from tearing one another apart.

I’m quite alarmed at what I found about the obvious holes in some of Black History’s sacred myths.

If I can find these obvious problems in scholarship without even looking for them, imagine what a motivated person could find. Much of what we accept of Black History narratives (victimhood, oppression, false allegations, systemic racism) seem as if they are curated for manipulative political purposes.

I won’t be the only person to discover these discrepancies and I’m concerned for what that may mean.

Red Baiting

A Black Local Minister reprimanded me for suggesting The Scottsboro Boys lawyer was hired by Communists.  The NAACP and the American Communist Party competed to represent this case for their cause.  That’s verifiable, not controversial and yet still cause for public reprimand.

Further the story of the “accusation of a white woman’s tears” falls apart on reading of the court transcript as in the first trial, one of the co-defendants testified against all of his other co-defendants.  

This testimony came up in every subsequent trial and I can not find an instance of him recanting, perhaps someone else will.  In either event the “Not Communist” story and the “White Lady’s Tears’ stories both collapse in an afternoon of looking.

The recent laughable notion that Critical Theory is not Marxist similarly flies in the face of objective reality. People who are knowledgeable and truthful about these topics are likely to be dismissed as “Right Wing Conspiracy Theorists”.  

Polite discourse apparently allows you only to be knowledgeable or truthful on this topic, not both. 

I documented several high profile openly Marxist and Communist activists in CRT as Just Black History Month.  

The Women’s Movements and Marxist Movements including Black Lives Matter have verifiably hijacked every Black Movement in the last century.

Black Lived Experience

The Emmett Till Press Release was a very curious document to explore. Within 24 hours of the body being fished out of the Tallahatchie River, Roy Wilkins in NYC, with a press agent in Chicago who apparently had every salient detail from a two day old criminal investigation.

The suspects were in custody, a warrant had been issued for the accuser, the body had been identified and Wilkins had spoken to the Governor, Attorney General who was forwarding a message to the President.

This sounds like remarkably swift justice.

The story of the white woman crying in front of the jury is objectively not true. Mamie Till testified in front of the jury, Carolyn Bryant did not. The famous magazine article in which the Defendants allegedly confessed was disputed by both men. 

Virtually no one I’ve talked to has been able to iterate what the Defense case actually was, only “white lady tears”, “all white jury” and “systemic racism”.  As it turns out the evidence was poor as the body had been identified as a white man, no one credibly identified the attackers and the life insurance policy that was more than the average Money, Mississippi resident made in a year was suspected for fraud and coercion.

The town more than doubled in size for the trial with white residents outnumbered nearly 3:1.

The 2016, “recorded confession” of Carolyn Bryant featured in the New York Times and 100 other newspapers has been similarly disputed.

The author of “The Blood of Emmett Till” offered not a recording but a handwritten note (in his handwriting) as evidence of her alleged “confession”.    

Bryant’s Book “More than a Wolf Whistle” will not be released until 2038. 

In Dec. 2021, the FBI closed their case on Emmett Till.

Emmett Till’s heirs and the Minnesota Legislature currently have bills on the floor for memorial funds.

Criminality, Poverty, Lack of Education and Left Wing Politics

Perhaps more than the insistence that everyone lie about Marxism and obsess about Blacks in the criminal justice system, I think it’s the taboo nature of Black success that I find most scandalous.  

In Minnesota’s ongoing conversation about Redlining, every story seems to be about a wealthy lawyer or doctor, who felt he (or she) was being discriminated against, brings it to court, wins and recoups his/her legal costs. 

They were then able to proceed with doing whatever white doctors or lawyers were doing. The historians poured over sensationalized media accounts, and scoured title records for racial covenants but didn’t find a single example of them being upheld in court.

Curiously, these same historians call out “Conservative Politicians” in districts with an academic, Progressive Socialist (Eugenicist) Alderman, while the state legislation banning racial covenants was pushed through by a Republican Governor.

Additionally, I found so many innovators, inventors, patent holders, land owners, diplomats, scientists, engineers, academics and Black conservative and Republican politicians much of what’s known as Black Historical oppression looks like an enforced narrative.

Without really even looking, I found a dozen examples of the revisionist nature of these histories. These histories, like George Floyd’s drug use, the Scottsboro Boys testimony, Black Lives Matter’s fraud and Jussie Smollett’s Hate Crime Hoax can only be held together by faux academics, poor scholarship and public histrionics.

I’m concerned what will happen when a legitimate academic tears these narratives to shreds.

Then I remember, oh yeah, Thomas Sowell.   

Special Thanks, Kudos and Shouts out to Free Black Thought Compendium. There is a growing army of Black Academics as tired of this nonsense as I am. 

Here’s a list:
