VIRGIN FOUNDER CALLS US DRUG LAWS "RACIST"- CAP BLACK SAYS, " BALONEY! "

by Webmaster

 

VIRGIN EMPIRE FOUNDER & ADVENTURER RICHARD BRANSON ON AMERICAN DRUG POLICY: 
” “I’ll tell you what’s different ( than in other countries ). I’ll tell you what the fundamental difference in America is, it, it is a war against black people in America. It’s black people that 85 percent of people who go to prison in America for taking drugs is black people. They don’t take more drugs, but it’s a racist law against black people in America.”

Cap Black, The Hood Conservative
 
CAP BLACK’S RESPONSE:
 
” I like Branson the adventurer but PASSIONATELY DISAGREE with Branson the narco-policy analyst for disparate impact. Crack dealers & crack gangs destroy more Black lives, directly & indirectly, than all the police brutality & private racist vigilantes in America combined. NOT jailing them at rates consistent with the long term havoc they wreak is racist!  Short answer- BALONEY! “
 
When what I call ” chocolate klansmen ( inner city thugs ) ” have billionaire White lobbyists, ” saving inner city traditional values is almost lost!
 
The Crack Lobby elevated chocolate klansmen to folk hero status and thereby signed death certificates for thousands of innocent American Blacks without batting an eye.
 
Nice work guys.
 
We won’t be able to survive your encore.
 
Cap Black, The Hood Conservative urges urban males to MAKE PEACE WITH AMERICA and transform their pain into patriotism. Otherwise we die under the sneakers of chocolate klansmen and their enablers who could care less!

THE NEED FOR POLITICALLY ACTIVE RLSH.

by Webmaster

Photo: Always wanted to shot this brother in #BlackandWhite #washingtondc #DepartmentOfEducation #JourneyForJusticeRalley <a href=
As a politically active ” real life superhero ” ( RLSH ) activist my conservatism has lately rankled the community’s liberal center.
This is sad since the common culture of creative activism made for  remarkably open-minded interaction in the four years since I adopted my ” Cap Black ” name to cover my broad range of activities.
They prefer we have a neutral stance on political issues, serving as impartial referees insuring folks on opposite sides of issues play fair.

That’s a commendable position though I feel, limiting. Inherent in the premise of RLSH activism is unlimited expression of civic duty.
I am an unlimited person. My creative crime prevention and homeless outreach have always been accompanied by political advocacy, especially on cultural and partisan issues where silence is tantamount to death in inner cities I serve.

It seems some more liberal RLSH are extremely uncomfortable with Black members ( not that there are many ) whose activism extends far beyond confines they narrowly consider acceptable.
RLSH are private citizens and as such are free to promote whatever social or political message they are called to champion.
The need for politically active RLSH is at least as great as the need for crime prevention and homeless outreach. One can easily argue that political reform in turn enhances public safety and quality of life.
That’s been my life long position and continues to be so.

Not only are politically active RLSH needed but I add politically conservative ones are definitely required too! America needs creative champions for traditional values liberals in office and conventional activism have all but destroyed.
I am a politically active RLSH. I am also a politically conservative RLSH.
The last time I looked neither fact was a crime.
I’m also not the only one.
I just speak up about it while others do so quietly behind code names and colorful outfits.
Another name for RLSH is ” American. ”

BLACK CONSENT DECREE ATTENDEES SCREENED AFTER FIRE ALARM- WHITES WEREN'T!

by Webmaster
( NEW ORLEANS Federal Court House ):
FULL DISCLOSURE: I’m a police supporter NOT a cop hater who loves making them look bad! In New Orleans they’re able to do that without outside help too often.
 
The Court Security Officers ( CSOs ) are mostly White retired police officers on contract through a private security company to the US Marshals Service, who deputizes them as Special Deputy US Marshals to man the entrance check point and secure court rooms as a supplement to deputy marshals.
 
I’m cool with the  concept. Gives ex-cops a chance to do what they love in defense of the federal bench. Thumbs up for the concept! 
 
What I DON’T like is the consistently rude treatment I and other Black citizens recieve upon entry to the federal courthouse, funded by our tax dollars as well as those of sisters and brothers of all colors. Also, the deputy US Marshals haven’t mistreated me or others- only this group!
 
Today ( 8/20/12 ) was no exception. 
 
Curt snapped instructions were issued to myself and my companion, a high school teacher/education advocate and we commented upon how we were made to feel like convicts being processed. I’ve gone through before for wearing my Muslim head garb- only worse!!!
 
These men make it plain they don’t like Black people and treat large groups of us like gang members being detained ne masse!
 
Inside the court room while parties made presentations CSOs spared no opportunity to confront Black onlookers for such “capital” offenses as briefly turning around to whisper or even having an elbow on the back of the bench???
 
Each time they walked by me contempt was written on their wrinkled faces. Going there always reminds me of hateful Savannah police officers I encountered decades ago as I walked while Black.
The icing on the cake was when a fire alarm sounded during the US Justice Department presentation. 
 
After confirmation the court house was evacuated. 
 
Everyone gathered in the court yard in plain view of court security. When the all clear was given another ” Mississippi Burning ” moment happened: Black onlookers were subjected to the FULL search process while Whites walked back in without being stopped???
 
I refused to go through with this blatant racial profiling and left.
 
Is THIS what we pay our taxes for, classic 60s style Dem Crow discrimination in this Democrat controlled city within a facility policed by a Democrat controlled Justice Department?           
 
More over, how much ” justice ” can Black New Orleanians expect from this Administration’s feds if we can’t even be treated equally at the federal court house entrance???
 
I support good cops- NOT bad policy.
 
This is the  WORST policy I’ve seen and coming from Georgia that’s saying ALOT!!!

CAPTAIN BLACK: CONSCIOUSLY "BLACK" ACTIVIST IN POST-RACIAL AMERICA!

by Webmaster

This is what good Black men must Symbolically do to chocolate Klansmen–
knock them off their perch- with the police beside us!

I admit it: I’m a consciously “Black” activist under the “real life superhero ( RLSH )” name of Capt Black. Big surprise huh? LOL.


I’m not a Minister Farrakhan nor arch-conservative Jesse Lee Petersen type. My approach is inclusive while high lighting inequities on both sides of WEB Dubois color line. I’m an equal opportunity advocate for what’s right.There’s a place for consciously Black “real life superhero” activism. Look at the body count pouring from Inner City America and tell me somebody shouldn’t step up and loudly announce that the once-White Klan has become chocolate in these zip codes?I can’t overlook chocolate Klansmen in order to specialize solely as an anti-police brutality activist.  While on record as opposing police brutality I’m also absolutely against public brutality chocolate Klansmen inflict far, far more often.They stand head and shoulders above external threats to Inner City America. My generation will be judged on whether we allowed this fifth column with baggy pants and worse attitudes to dictate our reality.
That’s my big project- wrestling chocolate Klansmen off their unearned, lofty pedestal and culturally body slam them into the ash bin of history.
It runs parallel with regular RLSH duties of giving out food; small monetary gifts and offering inspiration on a take it or leave it basis. What can I say, I’m a professional do gooder- and proud of it.
Comic books and pulp novels are a life long inspiration. When Crack hit my neighborhood in the 1980s it was my ” Crime Alley ” moment to borrow from Batman’s epic origin. Early in my activism I would ask, ” If urban crime can make a fictional White man ( Bruce Wayne ) dress up like a bat to fight it- why isn’t the Hood overflowing with Batmen? ”
Capt Black is my answer to that question in a “post racial ” America.

HEAVEN SUTTON; CHOCOLATE KLANSMEN & THE LIMITS OF OBAMAISM!

by Webmaster


Heaven Sutton was killed while selling candy on her front yard
Chocolate klansmen recently murdered yet another innocent Black child, Heaven Sutton of Chicago. That this tragedy occured in President Obama’s home town hasn’t been lost on critics from the Right.
My take is slightly different on this case. When my personal chocolate klan watch zeroed in on this case I noted once again that it illustrates the limits of Obamaism.
Milliseconds after the president’s historic victory role model proponents touted it as a near-biblical paradigm shift for inner city Black families.
Filled with symbolic pride chocolate klansmen and peers would stride purposefully away from violence; drugs and career dysfunction to become solid citizens patterned after the new arrival in the Oval Office.
It didn’t quite work out that way. Obamaism failed to convert millions. That’s not the president’s job nor is ongoing urban carnage his fault.
Thinking Black male criminals are lemmings needing the right rhetorical rodent to lead them is the problem. Criminals while Black are free moral agents just like thugs of any other color.
Assuming less is archaic racism of the first order! Chocolate klansmen are murderous; larcenous vandals because they choose to be. There isn’t some White Republican in the wood pile hidden away shoving bribes and guns into their hands to occupy the inner city.
Americans while Black holding chocolate klansmen accountable will save innocents like Chicago’s Heaven Sutton, as much a  ” hate ” crime victim as the little girls murdered by classic klansmen September15, 1963 inside a Birmingham, Alabama church!!!
 

The four girls killed in the bombing (Clockwis...

The four girls killed in the bombing (Clockwise from top left, Addie Mae Collins, Cynthia Wesley, Carole Robertson and Denise McNair)
 
It isn’t President Obama’s fault that suspect Jerrell Dorsey may have decided to be a chocolate klansman. He’s not a slave nor an indentured servant.

Heaven Sutton’s death indicts once again the slave-making myth that Obamaism will magically make thugs and other low lives mend their ways.

The president is doing his job whether some agree with it or not.

Our job as Americans while Black is legally punishing baby killers and as individuals, not becoming chocolate klansmen ourselves.
Individualism not Obamaism is what will save the next Heaven Sutton from chocolate klansmen .

DARIUS SIMMONS: THE NEXT TRAYVON MARTIN?

by Webmaster

Mother of Darius Simmons

Trayvon Martin
Trayvon Martin
Darius Simmons is a Milwaukee 13 year shot and killed by his 75 year old White next door neighbor. John H Spooner is the neighbor’s name and whether it will become as infamous as George Zimmerman remains to be seen.
Black observers should be prepared for conservative push back in the form of local Black-on-Black murder stats should they try to cast this internationally as a hate crime. We can debate conservative motives as either benign or malicious but one point remains: our self-hate crime rate eclipses that of hate crimes from elsewhere.
In my opinion every murder could be deemed a hate crime. This new case happened last week and rises to prominence amid the fog of Wisconsin’s heated recall election won by its governor. A racially incendiary case like this shouldn’t be recklessly tossed atop the state’s hot embers.
Past theft allegations from the suspect and a ” castle doctrine ” law on the books are sure to play into this latest episode of my life’s work: the ( sometimes explosive ) interplay between civil rights and public safety.
 
At issue will be this astonishing claim: the shooting erupted with the victim’s mother witnessing it and Darius Simmons was reportedly shot again in the back while fleeing!
 
Wow! If that doesn’t sound like textbook White Man’s Privilege I don’t know what does?!! The case should hinge on this assertion alone.

What we do know is a 13 year old is dead and a senior citizen did it- about as bleak a fact pattern as one will find even by today’s standards.I agree with progressives that non-Blacks shouldn’t think they can kill young Black men with impunity despite a recent history of just that in America.
I agree with conservatives who note with painful honesty that Black communities are often conspicuously silent when Trayvon Martin and Darius Simmons peers are killed by other Black people. That’s a point I not only agree with but take light years further to consider these killers nothing more than chocolate klansmen.
With race factoring into a heated presidential election and nerves frayed over the Trayvon Martin case the question of whether Darius Simmons is the next Trayvon Martin has possibly historic consequences.
Darius Simmons supporters have their work cut out for them- as do proponents of his being at fault.

Both sides should consider the consequences of rash actions with the fate of a nation literally hanging in the balance.

"SUPER" HAS NO COLOR.

by Webmaster

Nadra Enzi

Capt Black

One fact sets creative activists ( RLSH & X ALT ) apart from their larger communities: our impressive absence of racial hangups (or good sense not to air them- take your pick! lol ).

Real life superheroes and extreme altruist community members come in all shades. That much is obvious. Why we unite around this sub-culture is the next logical question.

The sub-culture we share uses fictional themes to inspire inventive dogooding. These themes transcend racial categories and instead become an entirely new category all its own.

The bonds formed in practicing this sub-culture are often stronger than those usually found in conventional ties.
While politicans; political parties and pundits racebait to promote prejudice for some narrow purpose ( like the 2012 presidential campaign ), RLSH and X ALT consistently demonstrate our one elegantly simple truth:
“Super” has no color.

 
NADRA ENZI AKA CAPT BLACK promotes finding your “super” through creative crime prevention; homeless outreach and political advocacy. He also reminds readers that, “…the ‘Black’ in Capt. Black is an acronym (brotherhood-loyalty-ability-courage-kindness )defining five core principles instead of skin color. ” (504) 214-3082.

Help Capt. Black HELP THA HOOD!

Capt Black
( NEW ORLEANS ): HELP THA HOOD! is my encouragement and food give away campaign for people of all colors who reside within inner city areas. Especially when more Americans are closer to homelessness and hunger than at anytime since the Great Depression of the 1930s. Outreach is the gold standard of creative activism.
Downtown New Orleans is where this currently takes place and first started in Capt. Black’s hometown of Savannah, GA. A new innovation is a ” McDonalds Dollar Menu Blitz ” where I buy a bunch of $1.00 burgers and chicken sandwiches for distribution.  
” PEOPLE IN THA HOOD DIDN’T VOTE FOR HUNGER… DIDN’T DEMAND HOMELESSNESS… AND DEFINITELY DIDN’T OPT IN FOR THE MORE CRIME/LESS SAFETY PLAN. HELP THA HOOD! IS MY PERSONAL CRUSADE OFFERING A LITTLE OF THE LOVE I GOT GROWING UP IN THE HOOD B.C. ( BEFORE CRACK )! I CAN’T WAIT FOR THE GOVERNMENT DO IT- IT’S UP TO US TO SAVE US ” -CAPT BLACK.

TAKE "CAPE" OFF OBAMA!

by Webmaster
The Many Superhero Faces of Barack Obama
 
Black folks need to take the cape off President Obama and try one on for size ourselves!

Warning: this isn’t an anti-Obama rant; far from it! It’s a call to action for a community that has had to save itself as opposed to awaiting political help from on high.
Things are so bad ( Black male unemployment alone is at a 40 year high! ); morale so low and prospects so bleak that Black folks need to “suit up” and creatively tackle this Depression. 
I’m not preaching separatism by the way- I’m preaching survival! On an integrationist note the moans and groans figuratively heard across town are our White country men suffering too.
My fevered imagination pictures two limping figures holding onto each other hobbling toward the sunset- one t-shirt reads, “Black Power?”; the other, ” White Privilege? ” each agreeing they’ve seen much better days. Against this backdrop, the old animosities are luxuries we can ill afford.
On the plus side “superhero” mindsets often  emerge from periods of unrelenting mass misery. That said, the Hood should already resemble Gotham City, awash with crusaders and self-appointed knights jousting a misery index swelling to gargantuan proportions. 
Our unsolved crime rate; our chronic life style mortality and other issues are to critical to accept thinking the president is going to swoop down from the sky to save the Hood or Black America period!
Turning this tide around on our own offers the country a model for recovery that doesn’t bust budgets nor gut entitlements.
There are Black folks who’ve been wearing the “cape” of community uplift for awhile. I’m just trying to increase their ranks.
Sisters, brothers- take the cape off Obama and try it on for size where you live!
