Diamond Jackson is a whore; in polite society she is an adult actress. She is fine; as good looking as a man would want a woman to be but she embodies histories we like to ignore, or pretend didn't happen. Her perceptions mirror the inconsistencies of men's theology. This woman likes to be filmed and photographed copulating with white men in submissive and dominate roles. As an outside historian observing this let it be pointed out: she raises awareness about the conditioning of thought and practice that influences the way men and the law looks at, and judges women victims of rape and molestation.
Black women, like Diamond Jackson, school white men's imaginations about who they are, and what they truly think about Black women in their contempt... There is a history to this assertion Americans need to uncover!
Sadly, there are millions of Americans ignorant of the basis of the social constructs they take for granted, and assume have always been in place for the right reasons. Women have the right to know what preceded today to better understand the forces that dictate life every two minutes, in the States, when a woman gets raped. If the MeToo Movement is going to acquire true power it needs relationship with the past realities, and principles that set this stage of such deep disregard for women and it needs a sacred base. Understandably, fear keeps women focused on outrage. With no substance and a lot of emotion this aspect of the women's movement moves to sink in quick sand without balance to a righteous cause. But, why balance, and what needs to be balanced?
The obvious questions arise from knowing what has passed on before today, why and how. (Sankofa) There is another dangerous question we cannot afford, in the long run, to ignore; a deeply disturbing question not to be answered by men. There is a link between whores and professional women too terrible to think about, but it is there. You discern and ask the question from these histories.

Teaching world history revolves around women.
Diamond Jackson makes this point without reservation.
