Making of a Slave 2016,17,18...

Some of us have read, Making of a Slave by Willie Lynch, while some of us know not of its existence.  If you have been fortunate enough to have taken the time to dissect that reading, maybe you’ll agree that many things have changed in our modern society as some things have undoubtedly remained the same.  It is my effort today to not glorify but to bring relevance to Willie Lynch’s piece of work.  It is my aim to share my thoughts while getting those who will read Making of a Slave 2016,17,18... an opportunity to explain, if not to another then to themselves, how we shall now overcome.

Part I:

If a people have the audacity to cause pain and degradation that is powerful enough to intimidate, infiltrate, subjugate and exterminate another group of people which then ultimately poisons the spirit, the minds, and even the souls of their offspring …in my opinion this is this is the new definition of madness.  In my opinion, this type of pain and degradation is one far greater than Post Traumatic Stress Disorder or any other “order” man has selected to label as some sort of mental dis-ease.

Can’t totally blame one group though, we as a whole (all people) have chosen to continuously disregard and act as if this atrocity has not and does not exist any longer in our society.  We close our eyes, cover our ears, and silence ourselves towards the injustices of people even further.   Some of us even say, well, slavery is dead…slavery is a crime.  What are they crying about now?  What are they crying about you ask.  “They” are crying because they do not see the chains but they have them on nonetheless.  Slavery is what slavery does.  One group’s madness has created mass generations of “walking dead”.  Just look around, there are enslaved people walking around every day…all day.   Some scratch until the chains inevitably loosen or fall away, while others remain shackled.  Those who are shackled use techniques they’ve learned to fuel the chaos within and fuel the chaos without.
