"Men die for freedom, but black men die for white women, who are the symbol of freedom. That was the white man's will, and as long as he has the power to enforce his will upon me, force me to submit to his will in this instance or in any other, I will not be free. I will not be free until the day I can have a white women in my bed and a white man minds his own business. Until that day comes, my entire existence is tainted, poisoned, and I will still be a slave-and so will the white woman."
...the voice of the accused "The Allegory of the Black Eunuchs" Soul on Ice Eldridge Cleaver, 1968
White people and their liberal use of "the N word" have proven to be their downfall. I heard this morning on WTOP a headline that stated that “justice will finally be served.” I thought they were about to say that Black Americans were finally about to get their 40 acres and a mule with a side of reparations, but instead they tell me that the “justice” concerns OJ Simpson and his zany antics as of late. Interestingly, Orenthal has become a figurehead for Black America. Whites see OJ as the ultimate criminal; a Black man that slaughtered in cold blood a beautiful white maiden as pure as the driven snow she plowed into her nose, who then got away with the crime. With the blood that OJ supposedly spilled, came the exoneration of all past atrocities that the white race has committed against Black Americans. A reverse-Jesus if you will. OJ killed both his wife and Ron Pearlman simultaneously with his bare hands and no assistance according to the average white American. OJ was deemed guilty before he got out of that white-ass Bronco. Finally all of this Negro wailing about slavery, lynching, institutional racism, Jim Crow and unequal opportunity would come to a swift, airbag-unleashing halt because one blond woman had been killed.
All this illustrates is that racism is oh, so prevalent in our society, even today. The racist foundations that penetrated almost every facet of American life, kept our contemporary legal system and the American citizens, regardless of race, from objectively looking at the crime and assessing the situation accurately. If they wanted OJ’s head, they should have charged him appropriately. In their mission to systematically and physically destroy OJ, white America decided to try and “hang” OJ. Instead of charging him with something that more realistically applied to his offenses, like conspiracy to commit murder, they tried to convict him as the murderer of two whites. I have always thought OJ didn’t himself, directly kill his wife and Pearlman, but rather, he had the murder committed by some other party, but chose to hang around and watch being the sick fuck he is. Lest we forget that Nicole was in debt to cocaine dealers to the tune of $250,000. I think someone wanted this money and the Juice refused to deliver. Instead of monetary reimbursement, the blood shed from her and Pearlman became payment for everybody’s sins. I still see it as physically impossible for Juice to have sliced up two people on his own without either one escaping. Even for the Juice would that have been a difficult task. But he had to have been present at the scene of the crime, for the Bruno Magli footprint was present, however, from the beginning, there seemed to be no conclusive evidence that he actually killed them himself. Whites wanted OJ’s corpse swinging from a tree at picnic time. Many even began to place bets on the outcome of the trial. Well, when you put a racist-ass cop from one of the most racist jurisdictions on a case in which a big Black buck supposedly slaughtered a lily-white princess and her suitor, there’s bound to be an issue. Mark Fuhrman’s dumb-ass had to first, lie about the fact that he used to liberally flip “nigger” off his tongue while under oath, and then, the dude invokes his Fifth Amendment right to shut the fuck up, which usually just means “Yeah. I did it, but I ain’t about to narc myself out,” when asked whether he had planted or sabotaged any of the evidence in the case. Idiot. They used to love you OJ. When you where non-violent, you had friends. They even deemed it acceptable for you to be in the company of a white, Anglo-Saxon blonde. Watch how quickly the fair-weather fans leap to the other side when the forecast is black. White America… you had your Emmett Till in the form of Nicole Brown-Simpson. OJ could've been lynched way back in 1995 if Fuhrman, like most other white Americans, had had the chutzpah necessary to simply admit that he liked to refer to Black Americans as "niggers" in the privacy of his home or while reciting his favorite rap lyrics.
Quite unexpected was Black people and their blind faith in OJ’s innocence. OJ never seemed to give a fuck about being Black. He had long denounced the plight of the underprivileged Black American, opting rather to entertain white Americans on and off the football field. OJ was one of those fun-loving, non-threatening Negroes that stood as a paradigm for successful assimilation. He’d hop over anything for Hertz. He chose to endorse Pioneer Chicken and even owned a couple of extensions of the franchise. He allowed his caricature to be the face of Dingo Boots; he became a Black cowboy rounding up America with his smooth voice and school boy charm. OJ’s last communication with Black America was when his case became a mockery of justice and was transformed into a racially-influenced fiasco. A lot of Black people really thought that OJ represented them and that his conviction would be a blow against civil rights in America. I remember the day the verdict went down. We were at Viking Hall putting one up. The jury read the "innocent" bit and everyone white in our dorm was pissed and Black people rejoiced like some legislation had been signed. But OJ was no warrior for Black people. He represented what wealth can do for anyone, regardless of race or sex, in America. He was no Paul or Malcolm or Martin or Huey. He was an opportunist that played whatever position necessary to gain advantage; pretty much like his role on the Bills as running back. When the alliance of Black America became opportunistic to him, he reverted back to his All-Star ways and came running back to his Blackness. Black people, being loving and trusting individuals, gave it to him. Our fault. That motherfucker had something to do with that coke head bitch and her paramour’s death. No matter, OJ’s true colors have shined through again, and this time, white America’s got you. Such a shame, as now there exists an equalizer to white America’s heinous crimes against the people of color in this country. OJ will be lynched, one way or another, and now we’ll never get our just due because Judas somehow always makes assists for the other team.
Since I prefer to remember people at their personal best, like the Thriller-era Michael Jackson, let's go back to a time when they loved the Juice...
