Black People Stuck in Survival Mode
The HERU
Interface of Black Consciousness recognizes that there are four stages to human
development. They are; the Survival stage, the Contentment stage, the Creative
stage and the Greed stage. Black people have gone through all four stages throughout
our existence. However, for the past 400 years Black people have been bound in
the survival stage by the Caucasian race as they flounder through their Greed
stage. How long our imprisonment will last is completely up to us.
The Survival
stage of human development is a psychological stage in which humanity, a race,
or a group of people struggle with fear due to a lack of knowledge about life. Life
protects our sanity by helping us compartmentalizing trauma and creating
temporary forms of happiness. While in this stage all we do is think about how
to find food and shelter. All the knowledge that may help us rise into a second
stage is constantly beaten down by outside forces as well as our addiction to
temporary forms of happiness. (Drugs, money, party)
The
Contentment stage of human development is a psychological stage in which a single
race or the whole of humanity has gained enough knowledge about life to begin creating
their own reality. They’d slowly lost their fears of wild animals, the environment,
and other humans and begun to manipulate life for their benefit. This is the
stage in which Black people became complacent about the threats that still exist
so they thought there was nothing else to gain in life except happiness.
The Creative
stage of human development is closely associated with the Contentment stage in
that, the Contentment stage is the only stage that can produce a positive
creativity stage. In this stage humans become so endeared with life that they
begin to seek ways to improve as well as prolong their existence even to the
extent of wanting to live forever. They will go beyond creating medicines to
cure diseases and creating tools to make life easier to developing things to help
them achieve eternal life.
The Greed
stage is a psychological stage in which humans begin to take on a survival of
the fittest mentality. We begin to believe that the achievements and prosperity
that we gained through curiosity should not be shared with other cultures, nations,
or other races of people. Instead, we use our achievements, whether they be
military, medical, or economical, to conquer other races and nations and use
their resources to sustain us. Those resources include human labor, food and
minerals.
The four
stages of human development are cyclical, meaning they occur over and over
again. The duration of each stage varies depending on several factors which
include; the type of physical and social environments we find ourselves in, our
ability to adapt and master adversity, our willingness to unify as a race, and
the extent of destruction of our civilizations. When we study the world from
the point of view of Archaeology and not “his-story” we clearly see that several
races of people have developed very advanced societies before Caucasians.
Today, most
Black people have been brain washed by Caucasians into believing that Black
people have never developed any civilized society or nation in our history. The
definition of a civilized society maybe hard to perceive because there is
little to no evidence in their version of our history that compares with the
technologies of today. That is because technological advancements come in many
forms; just take Egypt for example then think again. There are currently no known
modern technology that can recreate the architecture of ancient Egypt.
The fact
that no modern technology can recreate the architectures of Egypt proves that
Egyptians had achieved the Creativity stage of development ten thousand years
ago. Unfortunately, we also know that their downfall was due to the Greed stage
because we know that not only did they use other races as slaves, they also
were trying to achieve immortality.
Our individual
lives do not last long so its not easy for most of us to perceive time on a
grand scale. Our people cannot see that time is coming to an end for those who oppress
us today because they are making the same mistakes that our ancestors made.
They conquered fear and lived content for centuries. Then they used the fruits
of their Content to create great things but due to greed and a desire to create
artificial intelligence they are destroying themselves.
Black
people are currently stuck in the survival stage. Some of us have abandoned our
racial pride and have chosen to exist in contentment complacency as part of the
Caucasian empire, which is fine but understand that when you do, you are
helping to sustain your own oppression. Your Mind may begin to advance into the
Creativity stage and you may begin to create great things but you will lose everything
you create unless it is intended to assist your own race.
Black
people, we must lose our fears of life by understanding that time is cyclical. We
must lose our fears of creating our own Contentment state again, free from the
physical oppression and the psychological manipulations of other races. Only
when we become content in our own environment, will we be able to achieve
greatness once more.
