PROFILE OF THE NEGRO
Race is deeper than physique. It is more profound than the surface characteristics of the major species of humankind.
In my study and observation of the intelligence, character and temperament (ICT) of black people, better the zoologic or anthropologic nomenclature: NEGRO people, I once thought that the Negro is very intuitive, superiorly equiped with instictual faculty for choosing the best option in living. Now, I do not think so again.
Instinct is not knowledge. At best it’s pseudo-knowledge programmed in against absolute blankness of mentation. It is a pale script below mental frame. It has no tablature.
And instinct cannot be retrieved in advance of event. A particular instinct is unknown except in exposure to stimuli, unlike knowledge (and information) the basis of voluntary wisdom.
With this in mind, I do evaluate the way Negroid peoples undertake, or have undertaken, some of the unique-yet-universal human endeavours and activities; and the emotions contained in them. Historically and topically; comparingly and contrastingly.
I lifted some fact from the works of Historian F.K.Buah and from some old and experienced natives. Plus the Bible.
I am not certain that ancient Egypt was a pure Negro empire. But it was at least somewhat Negroid(Genesis 10: 1-20; Chronicles 1: 8-16). It is assumable that the Negra race is an outgrowth of that ancient society.
The Egytian state and elites knew astronomy. They knew of numbers and letters. And they trained the guest race, the Hebrews. Yet the Egyptian state did not democratize this vital knowledge throughout the millennia it lasted. It were the Jewish Hebrews who universalized literacy and numeracy among themselves, so well that they talentedly recorded virtually every facet of their living.
Amhara of Kush or Axxum was kept like a secret from the populace. Zimbabwe and Mapungubwe left no written record. Karthage (Carthage), ancient Ghana and Dahomey left no literary testimony too. Songhai’s testimonies were in Arabic, the lingo of her conquerors.
The Negro was not concerned about generalizing literary knowledge.
Aquatic adventure
African Negroes could access water like non-Negroes (Caucasians et cetera) as Africa is surrounded by water like other continents. Yet our knowledge of the oceans: their sizes, depths, occupants (hydro-biologues)…came and continues coming to us from the Caucasic and the Mongoloid peoples; nearly none from the Negro.
The Negro, as a race, was natively un-interested in venturing into Waters.
The lithospheric shapes and sizes of our earth were registered in mankind’s cognizance by non-Negroid races.
In elementary school, our teachers told us of how the bright-skinned foreigners climbed any mountains, swam through any rivers, and traversed any valleys on their way to our town. And one of them climbed a mountain whose name sounded like my classmate’s name: Everestus. Their chief, a woman, celebrated that adventure. These sounded queer, even pointless, to us kids then. How could a king or queen be celebrating just because a man climbed a mountain?
Afterwards, I heard of Victoria Falls; of Kilmanjaro; of Livingstone; of Powell et cetera…
The biggest surprise came when these bright-skinned, ghostly foreigners arrived in our town with huge, noisy machines. They climbed some of our mountains and, using their machines, began digging up masses of curiously coloured materials. Those mountains had been sacrificial places and evil wildernesses (Ajo agu in native tongue) before. Although the mountains and forests had fascinated me and a couple of other kids, adults then used all sorts of intimidation, physical and psychological (stories of dreadful things) to cage our curiosity.
Nowadays, some of the strongest houses in the town were built or roofed of materials from the bright-skinned foreigners’ companies. Why hadn’t we indigenes dug beneath the mountains’ surface before foreigners came and did? Because the Negro is terrestrially over-contented. In fact, the geologic features of his environment elicit worshipful, rather than, investigative or utilitarian curiosity. That’s the Negro, the Negro race.
The Negro fought wars mainly around his neighbourhood, and only for the domination of his Negro neighbours. At most distant, his stage of martial adventures were usually within the radius of hundreds of kilomtres from his power base. And he never went beyond formidable barriers such as huge mountains or wide rivers. Caucasic Aryans were the ones who came and taught the Negro, militarily anyway, that the world is larger…
The typical Negroes were not mentally expansive.
None of the political, religious or philosophic ideologies of the Negro transcended his borders (African frontiers). I think same is true of Negroes in other lands. Any Negro-originated ideologic stuff that circulated beyond his domain, did so not by the wilful intention of the Negro. Instead, the Negro constituted himself a receptacle for the near-ceaseless loads of foreigners’ thoughts. Some of these are practically superior to the Negro’s equivalent (Medical practices); others are convoluted dross.
In some African Negro communities, the principle and practice of democracy was native though miniaturish, before foreigners intrusion. Internationally, democracy in its best definitions, is viewed as having come solely from ancient Greeks.
The Negro is natively un-missionary.
Slavery is a dominant part of human history. There is no legend or written record of extra-racial enslavement by the Negro, of other peoples. The Negro has ever been the slave, never the enslaver, even where the would-be enslaver was numerically insignificant. The Negro enslaved only his brethren. In fact, historically, Slave Trade boomed mainly because Negro chieftains and mightymen eagerly peddled their brethren, not only among themselves, but also,and majorly, to foreigners.
If mankind were a ranch, other races are lions, tigres et sequentia. The Negro is the antelope of the human ranch. Not that he is faultlessly harmless. The negro is carnivorous too, only he has a singular preference for members of his kindred. Probably because he cannot work on others; can only work under them.
The Negro is a predator that preys only on his own kind.
The Negro is neither intellectually nor emotionally curious enough to seriously question nature and its Architect (God). Almost ev’rything is shrouded in worshipful secrecy, or is unquestioningly accepted. This is typicalised in most of the medical practices of the Negroes before the arrival of missionary foreigners. I ascertained this from a long story I heard from a long-lived old man in 1990. (He fell asleep in 1991 at the age estimated at 130 years).
History books have no names of Negro personalities who became recognizable scientists or technologists on African soil. There were no expansible or reproducible output of information from systematized studies of the working principles of nature from Negroes. Ancient Greeks who, according to records, became some of the most inquisitive thinkers in human history seemed to have gotten their spark from Af’i-R-Ka, the native land of the Negro. The Negro tottered between enlightenment and obscurantism. Till today, he has not been able to choose either clearly. He remains un-inventive, though he matches his un-inventiveness with what I may call psycho-stolidity. Nature’s gifts to Africa are being improportionately processed (and utilized) by non-Negroes. In this way, the will of the African is secondary to that of the foreigners in the African’s primary abode.
Natively, the Negro is not (very) scientific.
The emotional amplitude and wavelength of the Negro is also stunt and retarded. One need no intensive search or research to perceive this. It’s glaring and blaring. Consider: Global capitalism is affecting the whole world. The Africans are being particularly affected seriously. But they do not show registrable concern. Or they are concerned only about the little crumbs that can be gleaned from capitalists. It were the children of the very motivators of globalisation that weigh and voice out its disadvantages and advantages on behalf of the Negro. Some protesters against the victimization of native Africans of the South of Sahara at a G8 assembly were almost entirely non-Negro. Yet the Negro chieftains jog-trot national capitals of the world and venues of high-profile diplomatic gatherings, only to return to their slummy home countries, like picnickers.
Native African Negroes are interested mainly in consuming ready-mades. Future or no future, environment or no environment, do not matter much to them.
And what about international donations? The Negro has become an everlasting baby; everyyear-infant, ever sucking at the breasts of international charities and donor organizations.
Some governments in Africa (for examples: Sesse Seko’s Zaire, Nigeria …)have always been able to break loose of this yoke, but would not.
Disasters at home usually become opportunities for intellectually and emotionally short Negro officials to make huge, obscene, wealth suddenly for themselves while continuing to appeal to foreign donors to donate more relief.
After political independence, from colonizers, virtually all Negro leaders became unconscionable thieves and tyrants, creating the question: What really motivated the so-called nationalists to work and talk toward political sovereignty? It’s discernible now that the aims were not free societies, composed of free and responsible individuals. These indigenous lords are lording it harsher over their brethren than did foreign lords.
The typical Negro is more a criminal being than a political one, at least in this present global dispensation. His politics is more of bribery and coercion than it is of Convention-of-opinions.
Aboriginal Africans make few or no weapons of high sophistication; certainly none of extensive lethality. But see, Africans compete with, and often outuse, the makers and other peoples of such weapons. Not in keeping dangerous, wild creatures, at bay, but mostly in reducing themselves into cold and lifeless pieces of meat and bones. Between 1960 and 1995 (or 2000), more than half of the dozens of officially arranged massacres that happened on the surface of the earth happened among Negroes of Africa. Several are continuing.
What were achieved? Unlike other peoples who refer, research, remember and re-control or forbear, Afro-Negroes do not. They achieved the loss of more and more of their collective self-control. And now, after political (formal and ceremonial) independence, they have replaced apartheidism of colonial fore-time with grievous crimes. Most of these crimes they call politics.
The keen observer and note-taker of humanbeings and their affairs, Blair (Orwell), who wrote "Animal Farm" accurately described Africans in Africa, probably without intending to. And others.
Come to the major cities south-of-Sahara Africa and see. Risk your safety to some extent, and you’d observe that while magnates and adventurers from among other peoples are globalizing their economic and social ventures, the typical Negro (by psychologic make-up) on African soils is intensifying his criminality and fetishism, diabolic ritual murdering included, for wealth. Some of these cannibalistic carnivores do next-to-nothing productionwise. Most are graduates from shools. They fill near their needs by devouring their vulnerable neighbours. Superstition may be global. But most people who received enlightenment relented in it; except the Negro, I think.
If Markus Garvey, W.E.B.DuBois, Bob Marley, CarMichael Stokey and a host of other people were to be brought back to living now, they’d most probably be woefully disappointed at what Negroes are doing and feeling to themselves nowadays. It is a big reversion.
I know of one educationist (enlightener), who for his love for dark-skinned Africans, gave up prestige and privilege, and came to live and work in Nigeria. For nearly two decades, he laboured among them, brightly illuminating their minds. But they refused to be illuminated. When some were just about getting the light, the very people who claim to be educated conspired and forced him out dishonourably. Why? Because they wouldn’t bear or endure his straightforwardness; they in their inclination to crookedness.
You need not advertise intensively to keep the Negro at your commercial whims. Just boost his ego a bit (bywords or material tokens). He’s naturally an unquestioning consumer. That’s, he neither questions himself nor his supplier, in the real sense, concerning his way of consumerism. Marketers, especially foreign ones know this. And they capitalize on it.
Of course, the bandits are first of all Negroes; then Nigerians. They have similar charcteristics as the Nigerian state; and some of their patrons are in the Niherian governments.
Were it the Caucasic Aryans, the economy of the Nigeria Delta must have become brightly different in less than half of these dozen years.
Remember the LRA in Uganda, and similar things in diverse parts of Africa? The war-chiefs do not actually want such wars to end. They benefit financially from them though their people are being consumed, devoured!
That’s why in most of Africa, especially south of Sahara, democracy has become mere election-ritual through which unaccountable governments spring up; that’s why (in cities) people pay more and more security levies and taxes, yet keep getting more and more insecure; that’s why O.P.C (Oodua Peoples Congress), supposed to be a security militia, armed to protect the populace, has turned to be of the deadliest criminal associations; that’s why the police (of Nigeria for example) now compete with brigands in violating human liberties; that’s why constitutions are excellently formulated but reversely (oppositely) implemented in most of South-of-Sahara africa; that’s why many law officials preach human rights and at same time abuse their privilege as law offcers.
I think these are parts of the fundamental WHY AfriKa, the cradle of civilization, is still in the cradle. Africa’s former "Guests" are now her "Hosts". They now swim in the waters like fish; fly in the air, even in airless space, like birds. They can now create or eliminate certain kinds of diseases at will. They now do a lot on earth and away from earth. They now create "inanimate brains", what the enlightened wizard would designate "functional dead mind"; and not only retrieve, but also store information in them.
And they set order (or disorder) in society accor’ng to what they please. They are in control…
The Cradle of all this is ensconced in the cradle. Not incredible!?
That is the Negro, the Negro race.
Were it with Nigerian Airways, would he challenge the Nigerian authorities and still be physically safe (unless he’s of the "untouchables") let alone going to, or appearing in court? Can he disclose such amounts of money to typical Nigerians as he did to Britons and still safely be the owner? He must know he can’t be safe even at the hands of security personnel. And where is Nigeria in Air Transportation?"
Because the typical Negro has no god at all (nothing to live and die for, or live and live and die by in any form: cultural values, economic interests, religio-political ideology, moral philosophy et cetera) he does not live for anything, spiritually; and does not die for anything. Whatever gives him egoistic or material convenience for the present becomes enough and alright for him.
Though the Negro may be able to learn, as for now, this is of the heart of the Negro Race.
