<strong>The</strong> <strong>Isis</strong> <strong>Papers</strong><br />
white females are taught <strong>to</strong> describe <strong>the</strong> males that <strong>the</strong>y have <strong>the</strong> greatest<br />
level of sexual attraction for as tall, dark and handsome. Clearly. it was<br />
no accident that once <strong>the</strong> white female began <strong>to</strong> petition for her liberation<br />
from <strong>the</strong> white male, she also began an all-out sexual aggression <strong>to</strong>wards<br />
<strong>the</strong> Black male in particular, and o<strong>the</strong>r non-white males in general.<br />
Unable <strong>to</strong> admit her own sexual attraCtions and aggressions <strong>to</strong>wards <strong>the</strong><br />
Black male consCiously, she began <strong>to</strong> talk about developing anti-rape<br />
organizations <strong>to</strong> prevent rape - <strong>the</strong> projection being that white females<br />
were about <strong>to</strong> be attacked by Black males. Meanwhile, <strong>the</strong> greatest<br />
incidence of rape was being conducted by Black males against Black<br />
females.<br />
<strong>The</strong> above discussion is <strong>the</strong> best explanation for <strong>the</strong> white collective's<br />
(most specifically, <strong>the</strong> white male collective's) production of massive<br />
numbers and kinds of weapons of destruction (which land on Black<br />
mo<strong>the</strong>r Earth) that are symbolic substitutes for a genetic and genital<br />
apparatus perceived as inadequate. Simultaneously, it explains <strong>the</strong> use of<br />
<strong>the</strong> male genitals as weapons in <strong>the</strong> act of rape, most pronouncedly<br />
observed in <strong>the</strong> Black male population- a population forced in<strong>to</strong> political<br />
(power) and functional inadequacy by <strong>the</strong> oppression of white supremacy·<br />
<strong>The</strong> weapons produced by <strong>the</strong> white supremacy system are <strong>the</strong> truly<br />
respected male genetic and genital apparatus of <strong>the</strong> global white collective.<br />
<strong>The</strong>se symbolic weapons are perceived as countering <strong>the</strong> threat of<br />
white genetic annihilation by Black and o<strong>the</strong>r non-white male genitalia.<br />
<strong>The</strong>se weapons <strong>the</strong>n are used <strong>to</strong> rape and destroy Black mo<strong>the</strong>r earth, just<br />
as o<strong>the</strong>r technologies of <strong>the</strong> white supremacy system/culture rape and<br />
pollute <strong>the</strong> planet as a supposed statement of white male adequacy and<br />
power.<br />
In turn Black and o<strong>the</strong>r non-white males are forced by <strong>the</strong> same<br />
in<strong>to</strong> thinking of <strong>the</strong>ir genital apparatus as destructive<br />
environme~t<br />
weapons of aggression through <strong>the</strong> act of rape. Black mal~~ engage in<br />
this activity out of <strong>the</strong>ir imposed frustration and sense of pohucal pow~rlessness<br />
and inadequacy. Non-white male genitals are used as destructive<br />
weapons primarily against Black and o<strong>the</strong>r non-white females.<br />
<strong>The</strong> Symbolism and Meaning of Rape<br />
This behavior also can be viewed as paralleling white male collective • s<br />
sexual attacks on non-white women in <strong>the</strong> global white collective's wars<br />
of domination against non-white peoples. <strong>The</strong> white male's sense of<br />
genetic inadequacy contributed <strong>to</strong> <strong>the</strong> white male collective's need <strong>to</strong><br />
continue <strong>to</strong> debase non-white women through rape and o<strong>the</strong>r forms of<br />
sexual abuse. Such abuse was necessary because <strong>the</strong> white male collective<br />
felt debased by <strong>the</strong> dominant genetic power of non-white women.<br />
Similarly, because within <strong>the</strong> context of white supremacy more stress<br />
and pressure is placed on <strong>the</strong> Black male than on <strong>the</strong> Black female, <strong>the</strong><br />
B.lack male often perceives that <strong>the</strong> Black female has more power than<br />
hunself and that she <strong>the</strong>refore does not respect his manhood. In his sense<br />
of inadequacy, he strikes out in <strong>the</strong> rape of <strong>the</strong> Black female, seeking <strong>to</strong><br />
debase her <strong>to</strong> <strong>the</strong> level <strong>to</strong> which he feels debased under <strong>the</strong> power system<br />
of white domination.<br />
Although <strong>the</strong>re is no overt discussion of <strong>the</strong>se dominating logic and<br />
thought sequences, <strong>the</strong>y none<strong>the</strong>less act as powerful determiners of behavior<br />
patterns as seen in white and Black male populations. However,<br />
because <strong>the</strong>re is no overt discussion of <strong>the</strong>m, <strong>the</strong>se behaviors have not<br />
come under conscious control wherein people consciously can think<br />
through <strong>the</strong>ir impulses <strong>to</strong> balance disturbing concepts and images of <strong>the</strong><br />
male as inadequate.<br />
, •• Likewise, <strong>the</strong> global white collective and all of its non-white victims<br />
m <strong>the</strong> world, see no connection between <strong>the</strong> increased incidence of rape<br />
and <strong>the</strong> popularity of a singing group that calls itself <strong>the</strong> "Sex Pis<strong>to</strong>ls "<br />
thus ass~iating sex with violence. <strong>The</strong> same culture does not see ru:y<br />
connection between <strong>the</strong> numbers and shape of its missiles, bombs, guns<br />
·and male genital apparatus and <strong>the</strong> ever increasing incidence of sexual<br />
· . ,. <strong>the</strong> hi~hest level of violence being expressed in <strong>the</strong> act of rape.<br />
