The culture of white supremacy. This dominant culture in thinking about these characteristics please recall dr wade. Critique of european culture see marimba.

Vu Lectures Cs101. But why do you Europeans go through the trouble of creating the appearance of legality in their dealings with MAJORITY peoples? Why not simply steal and exploit without the charade? The answer is (1) that this 'acting out' constitutes a strategical tool that politically disarms the victims of European expansion, and (2) it plays an important part in the maintenance and support of the European self-image. The importance of this self-image must not be underestimated.

One of the deepest beliefs of the Europeans is in the related notions of 'civilization,' 'progress,' and the 'evolutionary' superiority of their culture. The concept of 'codified law' is a definitive ingredient of that of civilization; for with civilization, according to European ideology, comes order and legality assures 'lasting order' - not moral conduct but consistent and predicable conduct. So that the 'civilized' way - the European way - is to bring laws, however forcibly, and the structures of European culture ('civilization') to those whom one treats immorally and for whom one has no respect. Along with 'development,' this justifies expansionism - for after all, Europeans bring 'law and order' to people who must have previously lived quite 'disorderly' lives (or so they believe). 'Good' law is written law and therefore truly legal; unwritten law is not really law; it is 'bad' and backward.

Therefore, while power and racialism may play a apart in the collective behavior of other cultural groups, only Europeans are racist by nature and because of their culture. This is so because (1) they are the only people whose cultural asili is energized by the drive for power, (2) because racism can be defined as systematic behavior resulting from xenophobia, in combination with the concrete circumstances of power, and (3) finally because only the European utamaroho is insufficient, in itself, therefore demanding a cultural/racial 'other' to relate to. This combination makes 'racism' endemic to European culture and defines the goal of white supremacy, European power over others, as the supreme goal of white culture. That is the statement that no other culture can make. Understand, Yurugu is not an easy read. Any concepts that contradict the way Racist have groomed us to think, are likely to produce anxiety, anger, discomfort, shame and/or confusion.

The little White traffic cop in our brain may demand that we toss this book in the nearest dustbin immediately. The little White traffic cop in our head will probably remind us that this book is well over 500 pages, and we can certainly find something more entertaining on the plantation. Just got 300 new satellite channels, and there's a sale on shackle shoes at the auction mall. You can easily find an excuse to skip this book; White people - our enemies - will be tickled to help you locate something else to put in your brain computer. But my understanding of a soldier is that they maximize the amount of time spent preparing to succeed in combat.

Marimba Ani has produced an exemplary war manual to help black people better understand the White combatants who are bombarding us globally. We can read her work, incorporate her ideas into successful counter-war strategies, or we can continue wallowing in a White fog of confusion and fear.
