Fighting the Enemy with a jawbone of an Ass

Dedicated to Our Ancestors Who Have Names; lynched, outraged, raped, and murdered by Euro-American oppressors in the United States Empire (the U.S.E.): With this work/project we offer to them libation and commend their souls and spirits to Lord God, Almighty who will meet out Divine Justice in that “Great Git’in-Up Morning!” Often all they had to fight the Enemy with was a jawbone of an Ass. But like Sampson they fought on anyway. Their spilled blood cries up continually from the Earth and from the Oceans to the Throne of the Lord God Almighty, as affirmed by Holy Scripture . . . . We do so not only in memorial of the martyred life and legacy left to us by Shahidi Malcolm X but in memorial of Our Ancestors Who Have Names and the many nameless black martyr’s who were systematically lynched, brutalized, gang raped, mutilated, spit upon, denied due process, and other outrages by our white oppressors, who even today subject their posterity the Nu African People to further outrages and violations of human rights by murdering us under the color of law and racial murders under the pretext of standing their ground.
