The Black Book II: From Hajji Malik Al-Shabazz to Barack Obama

( 1 )

Overview

The time has come for a realistic political dialogue between the American national minorities and the dominant Anglo-American ethny. All black officials in the United States government are in the same position as the president; they represent first of all the majority's interests.

The problematic in a so-called one-nation one-state political thesis is: how will the state assure and protect the unique needs and interests of its minorities, particularly its historically oppressed ...

Overview

The time has come for a realistic political dialogue between the American national minorities and the dominant Anglo-American ethny. All black officials in the United States government are in the same position as the president; they represent first of all the majority's interests.

The problematic in a so-called one-nation one-state political thesis is: how will the state assure and protect the unique needs and interests of its minorities, particularly its historically oppressed national minorities? This will require their enjoyment of the full range of human and civil rights, including the right to self-determination.

This is why Hajji Malik Al-Shabazz opted to move the US towards the recognition and implementation of human rights. He feared that the majority ethny would prefer to commit the violation of forced assimilation leading possibly to ethnocide rather than to negotiate an equal-status integration. He understood that the African Americans were still in the grip of American domestic colonialism

The real "manifest destiny" of the US should be to establish one flower garden with many different flowers (doing their own thing) in order to achieve full development.

Read an Excerpt

The western world continues to lose its global leadership status due to its inability to institutionalize and take seriously the ideals, etc. that it, itself, has been so instrumental in developing and protecting. The Anglo-American empire1 continues to struggle for the maintenance of what one might call domestic colonialism2 in the new world (North America) and a new American form of neo-imperialism in developing states. Even after the legitimacy and practice of western European international colonization and imperialism has dimmed, the US policies and politic can be considered to result from what advocates of the "American Century” may consider the more successful colonialist model for global political hegemony through the tactic and model of "domestic colonialism”. Not only did the US model lead to politico-economic success, but it did so despite the fact that this success depended heavily on the US attempts at enslavement of captured Africans and the near ethnocide of the indigenous populations.
In modern history, however, the American model has been so successful at hiding under the banner of democracy that the world had come to view the US as the best hope for the protection of democracy, human rights, good governance, sustainable development, and war against global poverty. For any of these hopes to be realized, the situation of the oppressed must be framed within the context of the struggle of nations within states to achieve social, cultural and economic equal status (collective or individual self-determination)4 merit our serious consideration. Otherwise, such hopes can be only for the few (the ruling classes).5
The neo-colonialism and neo-imperialism of domestic colonialism becomes most visible when observing the unique weaknesses of the economic, political and social institutions historically evolved for the equal status protection of peoples such as African-Americans, First Nations, Dalits, Roma, Kashmiris, etc. in the USA, India and elsewhere. All these political institutions and the socio-political philosophies that support them seem designed to forcibly incorporate or maintain such peoples into political units that are under the jurisdiction of descendants of the original European colonists or dominant (Brahmin) ruling majority, etc., who they seem to feel would keep them at the bottom of the pecking order and without socio-cultural equal status.
