I just looked again at the Reasoning I posted from that previous Reasoning about Black Supremacy. And in that Reasoning, I was only speaking about Black people's view of themself. I wrote that about 7 years ago and I views of Black Supremacy are a little different since then. I see it now as more than just a reversal of the effects of white supremacy, but also as a return to I and I Roots and Oneness, as I and I Roots are in Blackness.
As I said, when that Inity is achieved and I and I return to our Roots, skin colour will not be used to classify such things.
I and I will Live according to the Heights of RasTafarI Haile Selassie I. These two quotes from God embody this way of Life.
I must say that black and white, as forms of speech, and as a means of judging mankind, should be eliminated from human society. Human beings are precisely the same whatever colour, race, creed or national origin they may be.
This, then, is the ultimate challenge. Where are we to look for our survival, for the answers to the questions which have never before been posed?
We must look, first, to Almighty God, Who has raised man above the animals and endowed him with intelligence and reason. We must put our faith in Him, that He will not desert us or permit us to destroy humanity which He created in His image.
And we must look into ourselves, into the depth of our souls. We must become something we have never been and for which our education and experience and environment have ill-prepared us. We must become bigger than we have been: more courageous, greater in spirit, larger in outlook. We must become members of a new race, overcoming petty prejudice, owing our ultimate allegiance not to nations but to our fellow men within the human community.
