Jan aka Jaz believes in giving one his/her admiration while they are still living.

Dick Gregory is a #Magic_Negro because, in spite of the times in in his life,  where he tried to be the best he could be ... well, you know if you are one who survived integration ...

This post is inspired by a twitter hashtag
#WordsOfFire in response to  @EricaLWilliams7 quote: "Loretta Ross says black women are experts in white supremacy & if ppl listened to us, we wouldn't have this Predator-in-Chief"

Black men like "
The People aka Native Americans" has been and still is predator game ... oppressors are still working on genociding them ...
​
Well ... after responding to Erica's twitter post, I stumbled upon an article by LEON TEEBOOM titled "
What Is the Bahamian Diet?"
note: URL links states "side effects of the lemon diet" * http://www.livestrong.com/article/484959-side-effects-of-the-lemon-diet/
... am guessing Leon could not prove any lemon diet 
side-effects so changed dissertation to question Bahamian Diet ...

... any who, I remember reading Dick Gregory's forte was nutrition and originally he created a formula to feed starving International people ...

​Representative Mickey Leland, was feverishly working to make Dick Gregory's formula available to the International community of starving people; however, efforts to make this so crashed along with Mickey Leland ...


In a statement released by the White House, President Bush said, ''Mickey Leland and the other members of his traveling party, both Americans and Ethiopians, were engaged in a noble cause - trying to feed the hungry.''

Since the formula did not make it's original intention, it was labeled "Bahamian Diet" and marketed ...

Dick Gregory also campaigned for President of the United States of America in the mid-60s and authored several books, i.e.,

Massacre in #Rosewood (1923)

21/4/2017

On January 1, 1923 a massacre was carried out in the small, predominantly black town of Rosewood in Central Florida. The massacre was instigated by the rumor that a white woman, Fanny Taylor, had been sexually assaulted by a black man in her home in a nearby community.  A group of white men, believing this rapist to be a recently escaped convict named Jesse Hunter who was hiding in Rosewood, assembled to capture this man.

Prior this event a series of incidents had stirred racial tensions within Rosewood.  During the previous winter of 1922 a white school teacher from Perry had been murdered and on New Years Eve of 1922 there was a Ku Klux Klan rally held in Gainesville, located not far away from Rosewood.

In response to the allegation by Taylor, white men began to search for Jesse Hunter, Aaron Carrier and Sam Carter who were believed to be accomplices.  Carrier was captured and incarcerated while Carter was lynched. The white
mob suspected Aaron's cousin, Sylvester Carrier, a Rosewood resident of harboring the fugitive, Jesse Hunter.

On January 4, 1923 a group of 20 to 30 white men approached the Carrier home and shot the family dog.  When Sylvester's mother Sarah came to the porch to confront the mob they shot and killed her.  Sylvester defended his home, killing two men and wounding four in the ensuing battle before he too was killed. The remaining survivors fled to the swamps for refuge where many of the African American residents of Rosewood had already retreated, hoping to avoid the rising conflict and increasing racial tension.

The next day the white mob burned the Carrier home before joining with a group of 200 men from surrounding towns who had heard erroneously that a black man had killed two white men.  As night descended the mob attacked the town, slaughtering animals and burning buildings. An official report claims six blacks killed along with two whites.  Other accounts suggest a larger total. At the end of the carnage only two buildings remained standing, a house and the town general store.

Many of the black residents of Rosewood who fled to the swamps were evacuated on January 6 by two local train conductors, John and William Bryce. Many others were hidden by John Wright, the owner of the general store.  Other black residents of Rosewood fled to Gainesville and to northern cities.  As a consequence of the massacre, Rosewood became deserted.

The initial report of the Rosewood incident presented less than a month after the massacre claimed there was insufficient evidence for prosecution.  Thus no one was charged with any of the Rosewood murders.  In 1994, however, as the result of new evidence and renewed interest in the event, the Florida Legislature passed the Rosewood Bill which entitled the nine survivors to $150,000 dollars each in compensation.

The State of Georgia has had more than #Six_Flags

Current & 7th Georgia State Flag, "Sonny Perdue, pushed through a bill in 2003 to replace Barnes' flag with the one that flies today ..."

Picture
There have been seven, to be as exact as possible on this subject, as one was unofficial and several of the early flags periodically had unofficial alterations.

The history of the Georgia flag begins in antebellum times and reached a fiery crescendo in
1956, when a staunchly segregationist General Assembly installed the Confederate battle flag, the St. Andrew's cross, on the official banner.

1956 is the year I was born and linked to a photo of my mother #Essie at the age I was when I received my 1st DAV rating in 1976.

Widowed, she met my father where I was conceived.  Mother returned to Georgia, during my conception and was born in Laurens County, GA  in 1956.  Mother returned to Philadelphia; then on to Ohio with my father [L.C.
