| Fantastic "Lady Grey" by Tim Walker |
"Civil rights organizations scream when someone of a different race or culture uses the 'N' word but don't say anything when young brothers call a woman a 'B' or a hoe. What's wrong with this?"- Dr-Sinclair N. Grey III
It is a value system, Sinclair. Reflected in the theology, habits and customs of Americans, and Black American life women and Blacks are assigned different levels of low esteem. Women are not in the upper echelon of privilege in the deeper sense of the meaning of the concept of privilege in society. It was a reoccurring problem during the Civil Rights movement, and it continues until this day the misconceptions and subtle dislike for women. It is a complex dilemma.
The persistent view is the view of women as the daughters of Eve. From this story arises the insistence of Eve's role in the burden upon man, and the fundamental stability in the biting resentment reserved just for women as weaker vessels according to the Hebrew creation story feeds the tendency to call women bitches. The white men who invaded this land, killed and took from the indigenous people built a government and culture with the conviction that women were chattel, Africans not whole people, and Indians had no soul, thus justifying the millions of murders over a very short period of time of Indians throughout the Americas, slavery throughout the Americas, and the secondary status of women deep into the 20th century!.
Despite all the social advances women are the scapegoats of a religious belief, and Black Americans are bound by what they have been taught about who they are, and what they cannot help but call themselves: niggers. It is not enough that any of this is wrong. By not shifting consciousness blame is placed everywhere, and upon everyone. - Gregory E. Woods, Keeper of Stories 5.21.14
