Hello Grisso
I am a relatively new follower of your online material. I am a Jamaican
descendant living in Canada who has watched the Matrix twice. My inner
self has told me as I watched the film that it has taking certain
liberties consistent with the liberties the white man has taken by
rewriting our history. The Matrix world correctly depicts a world run
by whites for whites. But the Zion world is where I think the film
throws everyone off the trail leading to truth. Everyone on the
Nebuchadnezzar including Neo and Cipher should have been played by black
characters. I believe every future savior (Neo), needs a mentor
(Morpheus), and I also believe every catastrophic act of treason is most
likely to be committed by one of your own(Cipher). Just as we have been
written out of our own history. This film has partially washed us out
of this story.
Your articles are very powerful. I hope the people in your circle of
contact are of the frame of mind to handle what you are telling them.
The reason I am saying this is because I just finished reading your "On
Capitalist Economics and Blackfolk:" article. The person that you were
in discussion with didn't seem to have the capability to realize that,
what you were telling him is the "clear as day" truth.
Grisso let me know if you will be travelling to Toronto or New York in
the near future. I live in Toronto but I travel a lot to New York. I
would like to meet with you or at least listen to you speak if you a
lecturing in the near future.
Please contact me at pgk@idirect.com
Take care
