ment, through manipulation killed on
millions of Native Americans and how
the Union of South African is fostering
Black on Black violence and murder.
An FBI file documentedby Brian Glick,
author of War at Home, boasted that
many “shootings, beatings and a high
degree of unrest that continues to
prevail in the ghetto, can be substan
tially attributed to this [FBI] program. ”
It is quite evident and should be real
ized, that Black people do not manufac
ture or import the chemicals for the
drugs nor do Black people manufacture
or import the guns which are so preva
lent in Black communities.
An article in USA Today titled “Drug
War ‘Focused’ on Blacks”, points out
that although 77 percent of the U.S.
drug users are white, nearly half of the
total number of people arrested on drug
charges are Blacks who represent only
12 percent of the population. In the city
of Columbus, Ohio, where Blacks make
up only 17 percent of the population,
they are arrested for 87 percent of the
drug charges. If the “authorities” really
wanted to halt the drug scourge, they
would start with themselves, getting rid
of their own corruption and then move
on to the many (untouchable) whites
who are importing drugs and supplying
them to the Black community. Through
investigation s in the “Iran/Contra Scan
dal”, facts have come out that reveal
top government officials were import
ing drugs into America.
An article which appeared in the At
lanta Constitution, entitled “Will U.S.
soldiers fight drug war in America?”
shows the rising idea in wliites and
even some Blacks pained because of
the deaths of their relatives, but igno
rant to the U.S. government’s plans, are
now calling for the U.S. Army and
National Guard troops to deal with the
drug problem. Instead of focusing on
the subject, a “war on drugs”, the writer
mentioned racial conflict within the
United States and the urban riots of the
1960. Since it is now evident that this
country’s ‘drug war’ which is ledby the
federal government, is disproportion
ately focused at Black America, if U.S.
troops do indeed fight a ‘drug war’ in
America, it will be an all out assault on
the Black community, in the name of
fighting a drug war.
A government planned assault on the
Black community should not be dis
missed as nonsense due to fact that a
planned assault against the Black com
munity has been documented. The docu
mentation is contained in the U.S.
government file, The King Alfred Plan.
A general idea of King Alfred can be
summed up in a few of its excerpts;
In the event of widespread and con
tinuing and coordinate racial distur
bances in the VnitedStates, King Alfred
at the discretion of the President, is to
be put into action immediately. ...In
case of emergency, minority members
will be takenfrom the cities by federal
ized national guard units, local state
police and, if necessary, by units of tbs
regular armed forces, using public and
military transportation, and detained
in nearby military installations until a
further course of action has been de
cided. ...All other leaders are to be
detained at once. Compiled lists of
minority leaders have been readied at
the National Data Computer Center.
..Minority members of congress will
be unseated at once. This move is not
without precedent in American his
tory.
Even though this plan was drawn up in
1967, it would be quite ludicrous and
narrow minded to deny its present day
implications. Racial tensions and dis
turbances in the United States have been
steadily rising since the early 1980s
especially since Presidents Reagan and
Bush have taken offices. Since the U.S.
economy has been under ‘recession’
for some time now and is worsening by
the day, thousands of whites are being
laid off their jobs daily and are blaming
their predicament on Black people (“re-
verse-racism”), a notion supported by
President Bush, even though statistics
from the Urban Studies Report say the
notion of “reverse racism” is a myth.
Meanwhile, the atmosphere for an as
sault is being created by the national
media which portrays Black youth on a
rampage, even though the majority of
drug users and sellers are white and the
majority of homicides are committed
by whites. The perception that the
media is feeding the American public is
when it comes to drugs, gangs, and
violence; the drugs are Black, the gangs
are Black, and the violence is Black. So
when the government makes its move
against the Black community, the whites
will applaud and say, ‘you did a good
job’! Black people should question the
reason why President Bush picked Co
lon Powell, a Black man, (reportedly
jumping overmore qualified whites) to
be chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff
to ‘lead’ the military. History shows us
that often when a Black man is chosen
to position of ‘power’ in the U.S. gov
ernment, the real aim is to use him
against the legitimate goals and aspira
tions of his people.
Jeff Dore of Channel 2 Action News in
Atlanta, Ga. reported that since 1985,
thp U.S. Marines have trained for urban
gorilla warfare in real U.S. cities. Com
menting on a covert Marine training
mission which went on without prior
notification in a Black urban Atlanta
community in September of 1990, Cap
tain Scott Cambell, a U.S. Marine
spokesman said, “We feel we have
[training in inner-city communities] the
realism that we need to prepare our
selves for actual urban combat situa
tions.” These urban training missions
should be looked at closely due to the
implications they have on the Black
community.
Minister Louis Farrakhan comments
on the impending assault on the Black
America;
The attack on Black elected officials
and Black leadership should be stud
ied with a very keen eye bv all of us
because it is the beginning of an all out
assault on our people. Before they [the
U.S. Government] make the move
against our people, they must remove
the strong ones who have some mea
sure of influence that could arouse the
people to go in another direction. When
there’s a roundup, you do not want
any cattle going in a strange direction.
You make sure that any cattle that
would lead the others in a strange
direction are made to go in the direc
tion that you want them to go in, or as
in this case,yougetridofthem. Never
think thatthe government of the United
States of America is incapable ofthink-
ing like this. Our400years in America
i<ns taught us the lesson that the gov
ernment is quite capable of thinking
and acting on the slaughter of an en
tire people that have become useless to
them. Now as leaders, this is not some
thing that we should fear, but some
thing we should we should expect.
In conclusion, if the United States’
conspiracy is looked at in a historical
and not an emotional context, it would
not be so shocking or unbelievable. In
Minister Farrakhan’s words, it is some
thing that “we should expect”. The
Bible, which is America’s ‘best seller’,
contains the motive and idea of the
conspiracy in Exodus chapter 1... Pha
raoh saw the Children of Israel multi
plying and becoming mightier than he
and his people, so he hatched a plan
against them saying- come, let us deal
wisely with them, lest they multiply,
join on to an enemy of ours and come
against us. The plan was to kill off the
male child and spare the female.
Likewise in America, the government
sees the Black population growth mul
tiplying that of whites, so while the
white population is becoming an older
and more grayer population, the Black
population is becoming younger and
stronger. So the government has
hatched a plot against Black America
with a specific focus a Black males; to
kill them of by means of homicide,
drugs and a number of other means.
The reason for the attack being fo
cused on Black males is summarized in
an article by Julia Hare, EdD andNathan
Hare, PhD;
In a white-dominated society (or situ
ation within a sphere of white domina
tion), it is the Black male who poses
the primary threat to the white male
patriarchy, who in the white male’s
mind can take his place in the male
dominion. Thus, when the sledge
hammer of racial suppression begins
to beat down harder and faster upon a
subordinate Black race, it will tend to
fall at an unequal rate upon the heads
of Black males.
The idea of “sparing the Black fe
male” is put into context also by the two
educators;
At the same time as Black females
rose in the job market, [many] Black
male[s] lost both the economic under
pinning and the psychological mean
ing to [their] masculinity. This fanned
and deepened a punishing psychologi
cal and social alienation of Black
males andfemales that soon set off an
explosion of single mothers without
male social, economic, or emotional
support in the rearing of male aban
doned children. Simmering Black fe
male anguish scorched Black male
socialization as our male youths in
corporated both the contempt and
resentmenttheirmothers harbored for
unavailable if not wayward men, men
who exploited the Black male sh ortage
and the sudden, super-availability of
the superfluity of Black females gen
erated by ‘the pill’, by white-fashioned
“situational morality,” and the sexual
license bom of white-orchestrated fe
male pseudo-liberation.
Mr. George Bush and his murderous
circle will [attempt to destroy the Black
community] throughout indirect meth
ods ...aslong asitmeets their timetable.
But when that proves ineffective either
because Blacks wake up to the plot
against them, or because [‘the con
spiracy’] takes too long for impatient
“NEW WORLD ORDER” advocates
who are tired of Blacks “burdening”
the American society, ...Bush’s smile
will turn into the grimace of a blood
thirsty tyrant bent on our destruction!
In the event of widespread and continuing and coordinate racial
disturbances in the United States, King Alfred at the discretion of
the President, is to be put into action immediately ... In case of
emergency, minority members will be taken from the cities ...
All other leaders are to be detained at once ... Minority members
of congress will be unseated at once.
The House is on fire!

serve and to participate both on campus
and in the community reflects a terrible
weakness within us and is a further
demonstration of how we as students
contribute to the destruction of the
Mystique. Brothers, we’re helping to
bum the House!
Let me be perfectly clear. In
saying these things, I am in no way
suggesting that the college administra
tion does not also bear a great deal of the
burden for the burning of the House.
Indeed, it is painfully evident that the
administration is not doing all that it can
and should do. Yet, it is equally as
evident that we as students are not do
ing all that we can and should. For
instance, many of us would say (with
some degree of accuracy) that the ad
ministration does not treat us like men-
-that they disrespect and attempt to in
timidate us on a regular basis. Well,
maybe we should start acting like men
on our own and serve as a “Candle in
the Dark” to the administration by do
ing well in school; showing concern for
our school; choosing our Student Gov
ernment Association and class leaders
responsibly and wisely and then hold
ing them accountable throughout the
year; andby helping our elected leaders
by actively participating in SGA, class,
campus, and community activities.
By doing these things, broth
ers, we would command the manly
respect that we desire and deserve. And
even if our actions still for some reason
did not command respect in the eyes of
the administration, we would neverthe
less have the moral authority and be in
the strategic position to demand from
them our due respect by any other (rea
sonable) means necessary. Moreover,
we wouldbe showing through our deeds-
-not merely by our words—our level of
lo J ye : .qnd.£qqc.<;rn, for Dear .Old
Morehouse and for our community at
large.
Brothers, the House definitely
is burning. But we have the power to
douse the flames! Each of us has to do
his part. During my Freshman Week
1988, SGA President Eddie Glaude
challenged us to “Dig it or leave it
alone,” to accept our responsibility as
Morehouse Men in deed and in word or
not to bother with it at all. With some
successes and some inadequacies over
my four years, I have tried to live up to
the challenge. Now, as I look to com
mencement on May 17th, I can only
hope that those of you who remain will
also heed Eddie’s and Otis’s words and
do your part to make the House what it
can and should be—not only for us and
for the brothers that follow us, but also
for our entire community. I wish you
God’s grace and the great ancestors’
spirits, both ancient and recent, in your
future endeavors. Peace!

Talented African Americans who have
taken abilities and honed them to per
fection. They continually distinguish
themselves in competition after compe
tition, all the while representing
Morehouse and African Americans as a
whole. Now, they carry that banner to
another country, to exemplify the best
that not just Morehouse, not just Afri
can-Americans, but that the United
States has to offer.
I have no doubt that they will
represent us well,but I wish to let them
know that they are examples to which
we all can aspire. They are individuals
who use their abilities for the enjoy
ment of others as well as themselves.
Morehouse is fortunate to have them in
its family, and I am proud to be apart of
the same organization and institution to
which they belong. Working with and
knowing them is an honor and a privi
lege that I am proud to have. Iwillnever
be able to explain just how much it has
meant to me. Brothers in song, sing on!
