Prison Abolitionist by a Colored Man . What if I were simply named Cinque ? When Western colonizers invaded the continent and what's characterized as The African Diaspora , would you recognize me as human , god or mortal man ? Its a God damned shame that I was viewed as a beast in order for kidnappers whom would become my jailers to justify their barbaric terroristic conduct that was less than humane . For believe me ! At times my fellow west coast citizens were not always dressed in only loin cloth . For we were fishermen , horseback riders and had domesticated camels decades before Europeans reached our shores .
What were the 2 largest companies named ? Get me right and enlighten a torch of reasoning to my tale if taken out of context .
Weren't they The West or East India Trading Company & The Dutch Trading Company that laid claim to being the most efficient at transporting cargo of imprisoned Africans to the west ?
Hell ! Massive prisons in the guise of fortresses were built on western African shores that remain standing too this very date that are tourist attractions .
Millions of African men, women and children whom are captured would be stripped of their human dignity by torturous cruelty ways of their captures who promoted White Supremacy as colonizers .
Colonizers generally are an invasive species known to choke out indigenous species. So , true to form the wardens broke out whips , flintlocks , manacles , shackles , muzzles and thru away the rule book of civility to perpetuate falsehood of superiority .
After all , profiteering was the bottom line .
These colonizers weren't willing to till undomesticated land or carry their own weight . Carrying the white mans weight or burden is not a phrase I simply made up but historically is a significant take on brutality!
The prisoner / slave markets were plentiful .
Once shipped to Caribbean Islands , South America , England , America or other destinations " US " Africans were sold into industrial , commercial and private prison complexes !!!
Yes , indeed !
The Industrial Prison Complex, as we call it today, originated for the African Diaspora the second Europeans came in contact with us and continues to thrive too this day .
Businesses , conglomerates and plantation prison wardens / slave masters imprisoned millions of Africans. Killed us as they deemed necessary , raped our women for torture , profit or simply pure enjoyment.
Commercial Wardens / Slave Masters faired no better.
Public lynching of Black African prisoners became giant spectacles ! Communities by the thousands , men , women and children wore their Sundays best outfit . Smiled for the cameras , posed next to the unfortunate victim and gleamed with pride as they continued to tell lies of their superiority with tales of eugenic , propaganda and alternative right misinformation that is continuously broadcast even in 2021!
The most heinous Wardens were the individual whom owned an African prisoner through a single or few small purchases or by inheritance acquired a prisoner /slave.
I've research the fascination with the African male penis in , The Isis Papers . It comes across as somewhat unbelievable yet psychologically the presentation is sound that the White man has a strange jealousy of the size and strength of a Black mans dick !
Why for Gods sake are their so much documentation of warden / slave masters cutting off a Black mans penis and placing in a glass jar of preservatives , only to be placed on a mantle in plain view, as if a trophy ?
Then there's the greatest story never told . Even though homosexuality was a grave sin . Why are we not told about all the male African prisoners whom were raped or sodomized by their White captures ? Obviously , it would occur behind closed doors and closeted . If ever there were a need to come out of the closet , this story needs to become public .
For my name is Cinque and Yes ! I even speak for the children against their pedophile abusers .
Founding Father George Washington was notoriously known to have underage prepubescent children ( Most if not all founding fathers also ) as bed warmers .
These innocent children would be molested at the wardens digression with or without the alleged lady of the houses consent .
Despite the color of her skin , white privilege easily could be denied her , for she was treated as property herself until 1920 by her husband !
So, some white woman even became unwillingly participants and some acquired a deviants taste for such actions .
This is why there are recorded incidents of excessive cruelty towards Black children by their White Female wardens and yearning for Black men as she has grown older . Her lesbian tendencies are easily fed in private .
When we acknowledge my story in " Armistad " , Cinque is tied to the last illegal slave / prison fortress owned by Portugal to officially end global African Prisoner / Slave trade .
This was one phase in triumph .
Then we view American Civil War as an inconvenient triumph of emancipation as a victory towards second phase .
Through civil rights era lynchings , brutality by municipal , state and federal actors remained on top of inhumanity ladders to maintain foothold of White Supremacy .
While desegregation freed The African Diaspora from the shackles that bound us and thru sacrifices of blood , sweat , tears , flesh and lives .
We advanced another phase towards dismantling of prisons .
Sadly , White Supremacy pivoted and drew up a systematic scheme for mass incarceration and a phase was lost as millions of Black lives were ran a crucible that imprisoned us twice as fast as our white counterparts .
Where do I , James Terry I I AKA Cinque for this prose , stand at this very second ?
I want our prison abolitionist and audience to take a good look at yourselves this very second and see if white privilege or western colonization benefit or hinders you ? Then I'll ask a few serious questions.
With your interactions with me . Am I entering thru your front door or the servants entrance ?
Do I sit at your table as esteemed guest and receive choice cut of meat as you do or am I outside rummaging thru garbage to make a meal of offal's , entrails , pig feet , ears and tails ?

Send some love and acknowledged to your guy ! Much love Kjartan , Maggie , Emma Belle , Gita and Mark .
