The black experience is set deeply in dystopian optimism, for rights, spread of culture, occlusion, of spiritual freedom, which has led to migration and magic against each other and whites, throughout history.
To see history as a continuum of time, we are at the point of no more white chauvinism in UK black culture, and a united front. They come from the melting beaches of Jamaica, the palms of the Dominican Republic, the fisheries of the Ivory Coast, the Adjaye Architecture of Ghana, the bubbling population of Lagos, and Black Rock of Abuja, the Mountain of Kilimanjaro, the Landlocked Botswana, and the Freedom of apartheid in South Africa, and of course His Holiness Highly Selassie in Egypt, and the Coffee fields of Ethiopia, where Lucy was found, the first human body to be found archeologically in skeletal form, 3.2 million years old/ Australopithecus afarensis, if not a sapiens? Because I disagree with Darwinism.
The Swiss and British Architects are helping in Africa, to build affordable methods of housing in a rapidly rising population of East Africa. With ingenious British timber self- ventilated houses, and the Swiss teaching them how to make their own bricks. To build amicable sized, self-build houses. The next step is to involve a peaceful world through associations like Unhabitat.com to improve and rebuild the slums, not only of Africa, but of approximately a third of this world.
Slum village in Africa, comes from rising population, and returning to Africa from the Americas, without a dime in their pocket, therefore, there is a lot of poverty to the entirety of the black story, when they do not need the stress to find finance. Past white supremacist governments used to misaddress race by ill-treating blacks, through failed authorities, unfairly arresting blacks, and blaming them for crime they had not done, only seeing colour as a false problem. This only encouraged a history of rioting and looting to make ends meet, in real black culture. But the white population today understand, with a disparaging support for crime, but righteousness and justice for their fellow black brothers and sisters.
Of course, black culture took over in the 1920’s, when opium was smoked, and the hood of the Mississippi delta, New Orleans and Louisiana became the home of jazz music, with the paddle steamers, still there today. Names, like John Coltrane, Miles Davies, Louis Armstrong and a host of others bounded about. From the 1950’s-1970’s, Malcolm X and Martin Luther King began a movement against racism in America, as we have already presented the argument, that it has never been fair for a man or woman of colour. They rallied to make jobs, highly paid for blacks, and independence of mind.
In the 1980’s HipHop took off as ownership of black identity and urban area, rhyming spoken word in the street and graphing (making graffiti) on the trains and free walls, to make yourself a proper MC (Master of Ceremonies). And then came the return of the American icon today with Me-One from Cardiff, Wales, & London, UK, to Mos-Def, Talib Kweli, and the leader of all Black Thought of Philly (Philadelphia). All household names, yet all came out of oppression of regular or poor neighbourhoods. The Bronx and Brooklyn are not rich places, so, another key to the experience, is rising out of poverty.
Today blacks and whites are not indifferent, there are black and white music heads on both sides, more progress to music development, particularly to the creativity of blacks. Skanking is rare, now jobs are available and riches are fairly spread. Love, care and attention have gone to the black community ever since the turn of the Millenium 2000, as this blog celebrates, and there is becoming, as a result, a more even migration of blacks to other UK towns and cities, not just those remaining in London, for schooling, pollution, and preference in small city living.
The black experience is an ever melding, moulding, changing, morphing, form stopping its origin of occlusion, the UK is open to black, and white connections.
The black experience is deeply conceptual, in imagery, word and colour, not just of another mind, because unfortunately there is still a naivety to the white man’s perception of all that has been. Now is the time to change your mind to black.
