A Tale of Two Executions: An apology to Troy Davis

Tingba Muhammad

Final Call - The president of the NAACP issued a statement describing that organization’s futile efforts to stop the public murder of Troy Anthony Davis by the state of Georgia. “We fought hard…[with] protests, rallies and vigils…[and] we fasted and prayed...” The “oldest and largest

civil rights organization” beseeched and entreated while an utterly indifferent Georgian “justice system” took revenge on the Black man, yet again. Of course, it had nothing to do with finding the

real murderer of the white police officer, and everything to do with an American tradition described by University of Alabama professor Clarence Cason: “[T]his conviction that the black man must now and then be intimidated, in order to keep him from forgetting the bounds which southern traditions have set for him, is firmly rooted in the consciousness of many southern people. So unquestioned is this philosophy that at times lynchings are planned and carried through—not under the fierce compulsion of mob hysteria—[but] by men who have calmly resigned themselves to the performance of a painful duty, which, according to their lights, is necessary for the good of society.”

On the same day that Georgia performed its “painful duty” our other “powerful Black leader,” President Obama, was hustled into New York to appeal to the United Nations on behalf of a brutal Israeli regime hell-bent on continuing its genocide against the REAL owners of that land, the Palestinians. So consumed was our first

“Black president” by his solemn duty to his Jewish masters that he would not offer even a single word of support for Troy Davis. His white spokesperson lectured Davis’s advocates, saying that “it is not appropriate for the president of the United States to weigh in on specific cases like this one.” Though it was “appropriate” for him to “weigh in” on behalf of a specific foreign apartheid-practicing country 5,900 miles away! Thousands of Caucasians around the globe, including the pope and a former U.S. president, spoke up for Troy Davis, but our Black president

(having earned the title with 97% of the Black vote) felt it more important to represent Israel’s wishes even as the state of Georgia readied to plunge the lethal booster into Brother Troy’s innocent Black body.

So why is it that a century and a half out of slavery our two most “powerful” leaders—the leader of the NAACP and the United States president—are ineffectual to stop the Georgia state-sanctioned lynch mob from committing such wicked exploits in 2011? Why is it that a nondescript assemblage of bureaucrats at the State Board of Pardons and Paroles (its offices located ironically on Martin Luther King Drive) could simply disregard the appeals of our Black leaders? The answer is found in three century-old incidents buried in the history of America—two involving Jews in the South, and the other, the Chinese in the West. All highlight just why Blacks have been left totally without justice in 2011.

In 1913, the Jews of Georgia were so completely in control of the ECONOMY of that Jim Crow state that its justice system did not dare apply the same laws to the Jews as it did to Blacks or to poor gentile whites. One of the important Jewish leaders in Atlanta was B’nai

Jews had “pull”; Blacks didn’t.

PART 3: Minister Farrakhan Discusses Blacks and Jews 3 B’rith president Leo Frank, who one day tried to rape a 13-year-old employee at the factory he ran for his uncle. And in the process he killed her. This ghastly crime would have instantly earned any perpetrator a new address at the nearest sturdy tree limb—but this murderer was a Jewish man. And because of the sheer economic power of Leo Frank’s Georgia brethren, he actually received a trial—the longest and most expensive in the state’s history. Despite overwhelming evidence against him, Frank was allowed to string out the Georgia justice system for more than two years, and in the course of that time he tried to pin his crime on two Black men. The jury of rank-and-file Georgians convicted Frank, but the economic power that the Jews wielded ensured that everyone from the police detectives to the governor himself handled Frank with kid gloves. Even the three Atlanta daily newspapers, fearing the loss of advertising revenue from Jewish businesses, disregarded the evidence to favor Frank in their coverage. The governor of Georgia, bowing to the incredible international Jewish pressure, commuted Frank’s well-deserved death sentence to life imprisonment.

Frank was sent to a country club prison from which he fully expected to be quietly released in just a few months. Ultimately, white gentiles, disgusted with the spectacle, snatched Frank from his prison cell and lynched him. But the state of Georgia’s handling of the case proved they were completely beholden to the ECONOMIC clout of the Jews and feared reprisals by those powerful Jewish bankers, manufacturers and retailers that kept Georgia’s economy in motion. In the

meantime, during the course of Frank’s trial, dozens of Black men and women were lynched and castrated and hundreds beaten often for no crime at all—and without even the expectation of seeing a Georgia courtroom.

In 1925, a North Carolina Jewish businessman named Joseph Needleman went on a date with a gentile girl, and at gunpoint, she claims, he raped her. When local white men found out, they beat him up and castrated him. And though Blacks were routinely assaulted and murdered for far less of an offense (for example, eleven Black men were castrated at one time in North Carolina just for supporting the Republican Party), this case

involved a Jewish man. The incident, therefore, took on a significance that led all the way to the governor’s office, and beyond. North Carolina revved up its moribund “engines of justice” and hunted down Needleman’s attackers. And for the first time in the state’s history they actually brought a lynch mob to trial. The rape charge was dropped against the Jewish man, but ten of the mob that assaulted him went to prison for long terms, and the rest were severely fined.

According to a Jewish historian who examined the case, “the motivation for the governor’s prompt action had little to do with Needleman and more to

do with concern that failure to act would raise the ire of northern bankers and investors. [Emphasis mine]” The growing textile industry in North Carolina was dependent on Jewish investors like the Cone Brothers, who owned six cotton mills in that state alone. Jewish bankers on Wall St., including the Lehman Brothers, the

Kauffmans, and the Sangers, kept the state’s economy in working order from their offices high atop Wall Street, and they were the driving force behind “equal justice” in 1925 North Carolina—plain and simple.

Are we starting to get the picture? The Chinese in turn-of-the-century San

Francisco had developed a remarkable niche in the state’s economy and had acquired prime real estate near the San Francisco Bay. The earthquake and fire of 1906 leveled the city’s structures, so whites and Jews in power seized upon the chaotic aftermath to try to evict the Asians and restrict them from rebuilding their destroyed neighborhood. A city official named Abraham Ruef told his colleagues that “the Chinese must not be allowed to return to the desirable area that Chinatown occupied.” Their plot was thwarted but only after the Chinese government threatened economic retaliation if the plan materialized. Whites abandoned their scheme and San Francisco’s Chinatown is now the largest outside of Asia and one of California’s main tourist attractions.

Around the time of these events, in 1909, our “best white friends”—the Jews—had formed the NAACP and told us to seek “equality” through an alien strategy they invented called “non-economic liberalism.” That’s right—they insisted on a specifically “NON-ECONOMIC” approach to solve our Black problems if we wanted their legal assistance and financial backing. Enough of us

went for this okie-doke to overcome and supplant our indigenous leaders like Booker T. Washington and Marcus M. Garvey who were all about economic development. So it was then that “civil rights”—integration, voting, marching, legislating, suing, and protesting—became our empowerment “strategy.” The Most Honorable Elijah Muhammad warned us of this “hypocritical trick” played on us by these so-called white liberals—who, themselves, had never practiced and would never practice integration.

As a consequence of pursuing a century of an incredibly naïve “integrationist” stratagem, Georgia fears NOTHING from the Black man. Troy Davis was destroyed because we could not threaten to destroy Georgia’s credit—we have no banks. We could not withhold investment in the state—we have no investment houses. We could not threaten to relocate our Black manufacturing base to another state—it is nonexistent. Our African brethren could not threaten to cease U.S. business operations in their nations—we have no substantive connection to them. The only actual economic response which we might deploy—boycotting the state—is not even being suggested by the NAACP. Prayers, petitions, vigils, entreaties and supplications are all we have to offer our fallen brother Troy.

For our total failure to perceive what real

power is, we owe Troy Davis a century’s worth of apologies.

The Hon. Minister Louis Farrakhan

Discusses Blacks & Jews, Part 3

The Honorable Minister Louis Farrakhan has been personally attacked for two decades by Caucasian Jews who have attempted to label him an “anti-Semite.” The charge is absurd and the accusers have been shown to be the biggest profiteers in the trans-Atlantic slave trade and other crimes against Black humanity. But in this lecture by Min. Farrakhan at the University of Massachusetts on March 9, 1994, The Minister explained in detail the real issues behind the controversy between Blacks and Jews. Here is the third of his three-part transcript of that his-toric lecture.

When I said that some Jews were

involved in the slave trade, they attacked me so viciously, like I said something wrong. So my broth-ers, seeing the attack on me, and sisters, formed the Histori-cal Research Department, and they went digging, not in our libraries, in yours, and they found Jewish historians, rabbis, scholars who confirmed what I had said and gotten attacked for: that Jews were heavily in-volved in the slave trade. Yes, Gentiles were involved; yes, Africans were involved; yes, Arabs were involved; yes, some Muslims were involved—yes, yes, yes. Everybody of the world had a part in that slave trade. Well, then, why are you focusing on Jews? Because in the books that we read, we always read it was Arabs, we always read it was Gentile white people, but we never read that the Jews had a hand. So it is our duty to tell the truth, be-cause in this day and time everybody

that had a hand in bringing this peo-ple down got to have a hand in help-ing us up or God will punish all. (Ap-plause.)

I’m almost finished. I’m almost fin-ished. No school tomorrow, there’s school tonight. (Laughter.)

Now, you know the story of the In-cas and the Mayans, the gold that they had—all of that taken and sent back to Europe. Indians called Indians killed. They had brilliant civilization. The Incas, the Mayans—brilliant. Aztec—gone. But everywhere Europeans went, they found some people, al-ready there. So we were brought. Now, some of our African brothers sold us into bondage. That’s written in the Bible, too. We fulfilled it. They

can’t get away today. You got a role to play. I’ll get to your role in a second. Now, when Muslims showed up, they were frightened, so the Muslims had to be killed. Remember that old Negro spiritual, “Couldn’t Hear Nobody

Pray”? See, when the Muslims pray, you as you in Christianity you hear a bell to call you to prayer, right? In the Jewish faith you hear a ram horn to call the faithful to prayer, but in Islam, it’s the human voice. So you hear the muezzin five times a day. [Sings Al-lahu Akbar, Allahu Akbar.] God is great. So they separated the parents from the children. If the children could hear the prayer, they could know the name of the God. So they killed any of the children who they found reciting the name of Allah, so they just couldn’t hear nobody pray. They kill the parents. That’s how you grow up with no knowledge of your language. Everybody else in here that’s tied to Europe got a name that

ties them to their people, a language that ties them to their people, a history, and a culture. You are the only people that don’t have a native language that ties you to Africa and your original roots. You ain’t got it. Why? How did you lose your tongue? You lost your tongue because you lost your mother. Mother gone, father gone, a motherless child sees what? A hard time. This is what the slave masters did. See, what they want to show is Schindler’s List—I ain’t got no prob-

lem with that. I got no problem with that. I think we all ought to see what human beings are capable of doing when they hate. I can understand that. See, we don’t own ABC, CBS, CNN. We could if we did better by our

money—I’ll talk about that in a second. So you don’t have nobody to tell your story, so don’t get angry be-cause Schindler’s List is out there. No-body wants to talk about what hap-pened to Black people. And because I said that the Holocaust of Black peo-ple was a hundred times worse than the Holocaust of Jews, they were angry with me for even comparing this, and it is because you feel that your life is so much more sacred than the lives of the goyim or the lives of the Gen-tiles or the lives of the Asians, Arabs, and Africans. (Applause.) Millions of us lost our lives in the Middle Passage. And accord-ing to what our research says, a onetime president of the Ameri-can-Jewish Historical Society, Mr. Friedman, Dr. Friedman, he wrote that the bulk of the slave trade in Bra-zil was in the hands of Jewish settlers. I didn’t say it—he said it. The largest population of Blacks in the Western Hemisphere is in Brazil. Well, if your hand is in it, admit it, man. The chil-dren of Jews today didn’t do it. Admit it! And then let’s take corrective steps. Don’t say, “That man is a liar, he’s anti-Semitic, he’s anti-Jewish,” when everything you wrote in the book [The Secret Relationship Between Blacks and Jews, Vol. 1] is from your own scholars. What is the matter with you? (Applause.) Barbados, according to your own scholars, not one Jew in Barbados was without slaves. In Cura-cao, in Surinam, and throughout the colonies in the Caribbean, Jews owned slaves. In the South, 75 per-cent of Jews owned slaves, while 36 percent of the Gentiles owned slaves. So when it came time for President Lincoln to have a Union because he did not want slavery—if slavery would unite us, he wanted slavery, but if slavery would divide us, he wanted a united America. And since many Jews owned slaves, they did not want un-ion, and they spoke for secession. Talk to me! And it provoked a civil war where millions were killed. This is not my history. This is what your scholars have written! Abraham Lincoln killed, and there’s a cloud over his death. Because anybody that seemed like they would do something in favor of Black people was an enemy to those who made merchandise of us. Who

fought against the freedom fighters that arose in the Caribbean? It was the same that owned the slaves.

You attached yourselves to us. We were bodies that reaped down your fields. We were your pleasure. Our women were your plaything. That’s

why there’s so many Black men that look like me. You didn’t marry us. We weren’t worthy to be married by you. You slept with us. You forced us to mate with each other like dogs. And now you talk about how immoral we are. But for 300 years the Black man was used like a stud horse. You forced him to go and lay with a Black woman. She didn’t have any feeling for him, but it didn’t make a damn bit of difference. Lay with her! And pro-duce a baby. Don’t you realize that when a woman has no feeling for a man, and she receives life from him, she gotta carry that life in her womb and don’t love the man, then she’s making a child that will hate itself! Listen to me. You ruined a whole na-tion of people and now you want to hide your hands like you did nothing! But I’m here today by the help of Al-mighty God, and I will not let you get away with that. (Applause.)

Work our people from early morn-ing to late at night picking cotton. We get no wages. You hold back what-ever wealth we produce for you. You share it with your children, but not with the children that reap down your fields. If any of us talk like we wanted free-dom, you kill us, beat us, drive fear into

us, so that the babies drank the milk of fear from their mother’s breast. Do you know what it means when a mother is afraid and is nursing a baby from a breast where the chemistry of her thoughts become the chemistry of the milk? And that’s why these Black

people shake when there ain’t nothing to shake about. That’s why they scratch when they ain’t got nothing to itch about. They are a scared-to-death people. And that’s how you control Black people! Because they’re nursed on the milk of fear, so when you meet a Black man who’s not afraid of you, who becomes a lion to roar to the lions who are asleep… (Applause.) Now you want to kill him, because he

will wake up his people. Three hundred years you lock your

Bible. Lock it—won’t allow us to read. When it’s a human right, to know, to learn. You deprive us of learning. One of your men in the Virginia House of Delegates said he had wanted to ex-tinguish every avenue by which light could enter into the slave’s mind. He wanted us to perpetually be on the level of an animal, so that we would forever be under the control of our oppressor. This is not something I’m making up; this is real, white students! This is what happened to every one of these. And this is why they don’t do what others do. Because they’ve been crippled and broken. But I’ve got within me what the Honorable Elijah Muhammad was given by God to raise every one of them up. And you should not hinder me because you can’t do it! Don’t know how to do it. You should help me raise my people up. (Applause.) [….]
