At the age of six, she single-handedly integrated her all-white school in New Orleans. Single-handedly, but with help. On her first day of school, she was met by an angry white mob. </span></div><p></p><p><span style="font-family: arial;">That was in 1960. In <a href="https://www.npr.org/2022/09/07/1121133099/school-segregation-ruby-bridges" target="_blank">this NPR piece</a>, Bridges describes the loneliness she experienced because she never saw another child in the school. She found out later that the white children were being hidden. She also talks about her white teacher, Mrs. Henry, who advocated for her. <a href="https://www.npr.org/2022/09/07/1121133099/school-segregation-ruby-bridges" target="_blank">Go here to listen</a>. </span></p><p><span style="font-family: arial;"><br /></span></p><p><span style="font-family: arial;"><a href="https://ancestralenergies.blogspot.com/2021/07/black-history-blogs-part-2.html" target="_blank">Go here for lots more Black history blogs</a>. </span></p><p><span style="font-family: arial;">How much do you know about Ruby Bridges and/or desegregation?

I have strong feelings about explaining racism to white people. And yet, I find this story very inspiring. This is challenging some of my opinions, assumptions and views. </p><p>An African American man by the name of <span class="yt-core-attributed-string yt-core-attributed-string--white-space-pre-wrap"><span class="yt-core-attributed-string--link-inherit-color" style="color: #131313;">Daryl Davis decided he wanted to go along to Klan rallies and meetings, befriend Klan members and teach them not to be racist.

But Davis states that 200 Klan members have left the Klan as a direct result of his befriending them. Food for thought. As I say, I find this truly inspiring. </span></span></p><p><span class="yt-core-attributed-string yt-core-attributed-string--white-space-pre-wrap"><span class="yt-core-attributed-string--link-inherit-color" style="color: #131313;">This just goes to show that anyone can make a difference.

The Empire, and the violence associated with it, continued into the reign of Elizabeth II. Millions of people in Africa, India and many other places were on the receiving end of this violence, and had their homes destroyed and their lives disrupted. Many lost their lands and their livestock, as the British settlers took them by force. And many lost their lives. <p></p><p>. <br /></p><p>One important question which arises at this time is, how much did the late monarch actually know about what went on? Churchill is quoted as saying, in the early 20th century, that it was a good thing the House of Commons don't know what they were doing [in Kenya]. "If they did, our East Africa programme would be under a cloud". </p><p></p><p></p><p>Kenyans had written to Parliament many times, but received no response. For more about this, see the documentary, <i>Kenya, White Man's Country</i>. </p><p>Here are two more documentaries on this subject: </p><h1 align="left" class="western" style="font-weight: normal; line-height: 100%; margin-bottom: 0cm; margin-top: 0cm;">

very interesting panel discussion about how we are being lied to by
the media and the government, this film has a very strong unity
message. We are being turned against each other – those who have
chosen to have the jab and those of us who have not. We need to show
unity within our community. Even though we have made different
choices, that is not a reason to fall out. We still need to have
unity. </span></span>

</p>
<p style="line-height: 100%; margin-bottom: 0cm;"><span face="Arial, sans-serif"><span style="font-size: medium;">Dr.
Christina Parks, a cellular and molecular biologist, says that a lot
of information is being censored. <b>The science is not being
allowed to be shared</b>. </span></span>

She is showing amazing courage, knowledge and understanding.
That video was taken down, as YouTube claimed that Dr Boyce Watkins
and Dr. Parks were disseminating false medical information. But when
Dr. Watkins explained to them that Dr. Parks is a cellular and
molecular biologist, they put the video back up. </span></span>

non-emboldened comments are my own. I have not recorded every
comment here. </span></span>

<p style="line-height: 100%; margin-bottom: 0cm;">
</p>
<p style="line-height: 100%; margin-bottom: 0cm;"><span face="Arial, sans-serif"><span style="font-size: medium;"><b>Point
1: Dr. Parks says the cancelling and the censoring tells us
everything. See below for Point 3: Media manipulation.</b><span style="font-weight: normal;">
</span></span></span>
</p>
<p style="line-height: 100%; margin-bottom: 0cm;">
</p>
<p style="line-height: 100%; margin-bottom: 0cm;"><span face="Arial, sans-serif"><span style="font-size: medium;"><b>Point
2: Dr. Parks says the vaccine does NOT prevent transmission. You
can still have a high viral load and still be spreading it after
being vaccinated. You can still have the virus and have no symptoms</b></span></span></p>
<p style="line-height: 100%; margin-bottom: 0cm;">
</p>
<p style="line-height: 100%; margin-bottom: 0cm;"><span face="Arial, sans-serif"><span style="font-size: medium;"><b>Point
3: Dr. Parks says natural immunity is much better than a vaccine
because it creates a response to the whole of the virus, so the
immune system recognises the virus when it mutates and creates more
variants. The immune system recognises this, whereas the vaccine
only recognises part of the virus [</b><span style="font-weight: normal;">i.e.,
the spike protein</span><b>]. The immune system gives a fuller, more
robust response than the vaccine does. </b></span></span>
</p>
<p style="line-height: 100%; margin-bottom: 0cm;">
</p>
<p style="line-height: 100%; margin-bottom: 0cm;"><span face="Arial, sans-serif"><span style="font-size: medium;"><a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-42L9eH6JHI" target="_blank">She has testified before the Michigan House of Representatives</a>, where she
quoted the Director of the CDC in saying that these vaccines do not
prevent transmission of the virus. </span></span>

</p>
<p style="line-height: 100%; margin-bottom: 0cm;"><span face="Arial, sans-serif"><span style="font-size: medium;">What
she does not mention in this video is that the way we get natural
immunity is to catch the virus, and the virus is killing people. So
this is a risky strategy. Not arguing with the factual information,
however. </span></span>
</p>
<p style="line-height: 100%; margin-bottom: 0cm;">
</p>
<p style="line-height: 100%; margin-bottom: 0cm;"><span face="Arial, sans-serif"><span style="font-size: medium;"><b>Point
4: Media manipulation: anyone who speaks against the mainstream
narrative is censored. </b>Isn’t censorship illegal in the U.S.?
Doesn’t the Constitution guarantee freedom of expression?
Apparently not. </span></span>
</p>
<p style="line-height: 100%; margin-bottom: 0cm;">
</p>
<p style="line-height: 100%; margin-bottom: 0cm;"><span face="Arial, sans-serif"><span style="font-size: medium;"><b>Point
5: Tee Khaaliq says: This situation is creating unnecessary
division among Black people. There is a lot of shaming of other
African Americans who speak out against the jab (as we can no longer
use the v-word). See censorship above. We need to be bringing on
the dissenters and the dissenting views.</b><span style="font-weight: normal;">

</p>
<p style="line-height: 100%; margin-bottom: 0cm;"><span face="Arial, sans-serif"><span style="font-size: medium;"><b>Point
6: Dr. Parks says: Black people produce twice as many antibodies as
white people in response to RNA viruses as well as certain jabs that
contain the RNA. </b></span></span>

<p style="line-height: 100%; margin-bottom: 0cm;"><span face="Arial, sans-serif"><span style="font-size: medium;"><b>The
vaccine induces a hyper-inflammatory response. In Africa, as it is a
very sunny climate, the sun killed all the RNA viruses, so we did not
need the same type of defences as Europeans. We can take care of the
co-morbidity. A drug can control metabolic syndrome in Black people
and has been used as an anti-malarial for 70 years. Inflammation can
be caused by metabolic syndrome. This drug can control metabolic
syndrome. Obesity can be driven by inflammation. This biochemistry
needs to be addressed.</b><span style="font-weight: normal;"> </span></span></span>

<p style="line-height: 100%; margin-bottom: 0cm;"><span face="Arial, sans-serif"><span style="font-size: medium;"><span style="font-weight: normal;">Dr.
Parks is banned from most media. She is dropping science, but most
people don’t get to hear it because she is being heavily censored.

</p>
<p style="line-height: 100%; margin-bottom: 0cm;"><span face="Arial, sans-serif"><span style="font-size: medium;"><span style="font-weight: normal;">This
was an absolutely fascinating discussion. Dr. Parks has given us a
lot of technical information. It might be a little hard to follow,
but this is information we need to address serious health issues in
our communities. </span></span></span>

Really? Really, Cressida? <br /></p><p>According to Wikipedia, Cressida Dick held senior roles in the force's diversity directorate, in anti-gang and
anti-gun crime operations, and in counterterrorism operations before becoming Commissioner. She was a Met Police officer at the time of the death of Joy Gardner.

His family moved to Chicago during the "Great Migration", in 1919. (Mine migrated in 1920.) <p></p><p>African Americans left the South in order to have a better life and a better future for themselves and their families. They often settled in large cities including Chicago, Cleveland and New York, where they formed their own communities during segregation. </p><p>Black lists the reasons why his parents decided to move North. </p><p>Unfortunately, many of these prosperous, thriving Black communities were destroyed by white supremacists.
