YOUR WHITE CHRISTIAN BROTHERS Introduction To African Civilizations by John G. Jackson Page 317 That the Christian missionary enterprise has been used to KEEP AFRICANS IN A STATE OF BONDAGE may come as a shock to some readers, but there is an ABUNDANCE of documentary which places the FACT beyond all doubt. We call attention to a statement of Henri Junod, a prominent Swiss Protestan missionary: I speak of resignation. It is necessary for the Blacks, for despite all that has been written on the fundamental axiom of the absolute equality of mankind, THEY ARE an inferior race, a race MADE TO SERVE. It would be harmful to them to cover up this evident fact under a pile of sentimental eloquence. Christianity alone will make out of the Black a SERVANT satisfied with his lot, for it alone can bring him to a free and VOLUNTARY SUBMISSION to the plans of Divine Providence. Everyone, I will even say THE WHOLE OF HUMANITY is deeply concerned that the Negro should accept the position assigned to him by his physical and intellectual faculties. Without the arms of the natives, the gold mines of Johannesburg, which have built up the prosperity of South Africa, would cease to exist from one day to the next, for it is these arms which accomplish the entire manual labor in the extracting of gold. Then again, we consider the immense plains on the coast of Delagoa, the valleys of the Nkomati, the Limpopo and the Zambezi, how could these fertile territories be exploited if the Blacks refused their aid? In these tropical latitudes the European dies of fever, especially if he starts working the soil himself. The white mans role is that of the organizer, the master, under whose watch must work the million arms of the native population This is your white Christian brother and what he has ALWAYS thought of you! This is the man whose Christian conscience you keep appealing to while generation after generation of African children, your children, remain in a state of bondage for your lack of wisdom, your lack of understanding of the Europeans history, nature and global power desires, his parasitical view of the world and the people in it and the fact that the European by definition of what it means to be a Christian, has never been a Christian. For the 100th time Ill explain, if the European had to absolutely obey even 1 of the 10 commandments hes finished....thou shall not STEAL I understand the emotion invested in these modern day versions of the religions of the world, I understand youve centered your beliefs, your trust and even your lives around them. I hope even one person who reads this can hear me well and take what I say to heart. With all due respect, if it is Islam or if it is Christianity you are a liar when you say you have the one true faith or this is the Black mans true faith and here is why. Your true faith is that faith which liberates you from the domination of other people, otherwise it is not true! There is something horribly wrong with the African man and women in this world and its not our physical or intellectual faculties as this holy devil Henri Junod stated. Weve been producing multi-geniuses since the days of Imhotep and today we dominate every physical activity on the planet. Our problem is a SPIRITUAL one! How was the African introduced to Christianity? How was the African introduced to Islam? Both are the religions of conquerors and slave masters who placed these religions on you as a means of controlling your mind! Islam is a weapon in the hands of Arab imperialism, Christianity is a weapon in the hands of European imperialism. The Arabs have no illusions about this, the Europeans have no illusions about this, YOU ARE THE ONE with the illusions. Nobody talks God more than Black folk, nobody spends more of their time and money in church than Black folk, nobody catches the holy ghost more than Black folk and surely no one can sing the songs of Zion like Black folk can. All this god talk, all this religion and still it seems the Black man and woman are incapable of even establishing and operating a candy shop in their own neighborhood. Why? Whats wrong with you? Your hands arent broken, your mind is swift in every other area under the sun. If you are a child of God, it seems to me youve been disinherited. Maybe your sense of spirituality is not what its supposed to be, maybe youve been praying to the wrong gods, maybe a sense of African spirituality would change the world for African people. Or maybe idk wth Im talking about and Im just an angry godless Black man trying to drag you down to hell. The fact remains since the African has taken on the religions of foreigners we have not known freedom nor independence and we have not ruled our own nations according to our own customs and systems of government. When you look at the condition and position of the African man and woman in this world you cant look me in the eye with a straight face and tell me their isnt something wrong with our souls. -Omahni K.
