We cull harmless animals, why not detrital Blacks as well?A Poem by COLLYMOREThe late Dr. Martin Luther King stressed that the character of Blacks was more important that their skin colour. Others living share his dream; I’m one of them!By only other one in the Caribbean or the officially recognized by UNESCO as longstandingly having among their population a 100% rate of universal literacy. In that figure is 79%, in the that country’s education rating score is off the radar, very much in the doldrums and yet to come alive. Additionally and quite proudly so for Bajans, is the absolutely enterprising fact that part of the University of the of the earlier part of its existence was principally a religious institution tasked with the scholarly tuition of Anglican priests, was first a college of later that of But it was categorically and determinedly in pioneering institution was auspiciously set up as well as firmly and permanently sited. But equally important for Barbadians and others closely connected to this a long and illustrious history of dispensing top-drawer education at every division conceivably - education accordingly has never been or would it possibly ever be seen by Bajans as an irksome chore simply to be dispelled and nothing more; or worse still something untoward and altogether undesirable in itself. Consequently, throughout their interesting history Bajans have unequivocally, joyously and welcomingly embraced education, and in tune with these quite laudable sentiments their cherished island has long and reliably been an exporter of graduates over the years. Now you tell me without any fear of contradiction how many other countries, a great deal bigger and much better off financially, could plausibly in their own case truthfully say that? So sensibly and sagaciously Barbadians see education as a vital resource that can positively inspire as well as completely fulfil their expectant dreams; and therefore plethora of grammar schools that abound on this remarkable island and date back continuously to the earlier half of the 17th Century, are deeply revered since they constitute respectively the oldest tertiary and secondary educational establishments in all the The University of the these one is located at Cave Hill in the island’s historic capital are sited in previous to UWI achieving its independence and becoming a fully-fledged university in its own right and doing so in the wake of the British Caribbean territories having correspondingly been accorded their own independence, it was a wholly integrated but, at the same time, an autonomous college of How very ironic then and so pathetic in the extreme too that in spite of these enormous, significantly beneficial, celebrated, and very much ongoing educational and other scholastic developments with their numerous successes throughout the of these stunning territories should so insultingly find themselves pointlessly saddled with a prized moronic, black Trinidadian jackass and self-styled poet No.1 ensconced in their midst. A reprobate house n****r of the worst possible kind whose mind is so psychologically damaged that he simply can’t see far less grasp what’s staring him starkly in the face and consequently on his part has no dignity in himself let alone, and most deplorably so for all decent Blacks, no pride whatever in his race. So ganja or any other available drug that he can lay his hands on becomes his raison d’être for living, and along with that the worst subterraneous and other detrital crap that he liberally wallows in is then preposterously passed off as Black or more debasingly so as none of these loathsome things are remotely that! For what this unquestionably stomach-churning junk most categorically represents and also quite tangibly is, is a potpourri of the contents of a patently perverted and destructive existence systematically wrought by a totally demented brain not in the least deserving of that name. Characteristics of which are a discordantly guttural and affected speech pattern familiarly juxtaposed with an exaggeratedly distorted manner of walking, all of which are laboriously designed to entice the equally inane that this man without a brain within his head that’s worthy of the name but lodged instead between his legs instead is the man, and undeniably therefore God’s gift to all women. Well if this is purportedly Black Culture then firmly rule me out immediately, as incontestably it doesn’t represent me, my unshakably proud, black British heritage or categorically my own and in particular Bajan pedigree. So for a first-rate Trinidadian yob who’s probably never been anywhere near a university much less studied at one to idiotically believe that professors only come in monochrome, in other words with pink skins alone " can you credit it? - doesn’t surprise me in the least you see! So how about it BOY! Why not have a word with Professor Dr. Hilary Beckles: Vice-Chancellor of the University of the who as you’ll quickly find will dismissively disabuse you of your rank stupidity on this one, even though I’m absolutely sure you won’t be in any hurry afterwards to let on that this is what he’s actually done. Oh, and by the way, who like me is Black, Bajan and additionally a longstanding friend. If that is, self-styled poet No.1, you can find the time to temporarily come off the crack cocaine you’re on and hopefully be in a fit enough state to lucidly make a call from Anyway all this is rather academic really since I constantly ask myself, without any logical explanation in response, why on earth do anti-Black racists or white supremacists for that matter think that they actually need to have reactionary groups of their own like the BNP, National Front, UKIP, the English Defence League or the Ku Klux Klan when idiotic, servile and compliantly brainwashed Blacks like the Trinidadian, ganja-intoxicated and self-styled poet No.1 more than adequately, and also for free, willingly do their dirty work for them? A barbarous and ongoing state of affairs, which for centuries now, ever since the brutal commencement of the heinous Transatlantic Slave Trade (in black lives) and following its demise would continue throughout the long and dark periods of colonialism, segregation, Jim Crow lynchings and apartheid, and with the latter largely gone lives on still in present day Xenophobia and Racism. Thanks significantly to the vile and grovelling treachery of house n****r Blacks who over the centuries have grown quite accomplished at dissing their own race; a self-imposed and committed mission it has become, and guess what for? What else but to fawningly court and secure white Caucasian approbation! Blame him if you want of course but fatuous poet No.1 isn’t the only source of this and that’s an evident fact. But having said that what really intrigues me even more is that while we cheerfully cull inoffensive animals, misguidedly for sure we bizarrely spare detrital Blacks. © Stanley V.
