More Attacks on Women of Color

Sokari has a good post up that shows that for all the good that can be gained from the internet and online social media, the haters will still infiltrate and try to spread their diseases.

Recently a FaceBook group was created to highlight the crimes committed against Megan and the silence of the mainstream media to report the case. The group “Students against the rape of Megan Williams and media that ignores her” presently has over 240,000 members. On Saturday one member of the group, Patrick Dyson posted this piece on the groups wall, “ARE BLACKS CURSED”.

Physical Features

You compare blacks nose, eyes, skin, hair, nose wide and bulbous, eyes dark and red, hair goose like, skin oily versus white nose straight and bi-symetrical, lovely different coloured eyes, lovely white skin, beautiful blonde , brunnette, redhead or silky black hair
IQ
The educational stats suggest that the IQ of blacks is at least 25% lower than the average white person. Others suggest its way more than that….. the piece continues in the same vein.

Posting this comment on a site created to support a Black woman who has survived multiple sexual assaults is Dyson’s way of raping her again. Not only has Dyson invaded and defiled the site, he has included a photograph of himself with three African women. This white supremacist travels all the way to Africa to have himself photographed with bare-chested African women - why? Dyson like so many white supremacist is obsessed with Blackness which is expressed by finding ways to invade Black spaces particularly those occupied by Black women. In this way he hopes to express his power as a white male and take control of our spaces and voices. With these two acts, Dyson has “attempted” to ridicule and degrade all Black women - in Africa, the US and other parts of the Diaspora. I say “attempted” because like most haters, his action and words expose him for what he really is - which is a powerless albeit despicable person and people like him cannot and will not succeed. The more he and others like him are exposed in this way the weaker they become. If you are a member of Facebook take action by writing to them. Use your networks and contacts to publicise this story in the blogosphere and the mainstream media in Africa and in the Diaspora.

I hate to say it, but this is inevitable. People like Dyson will come out of the woodwork and try to spread their filth as far and wide as possible. They should be exposed for the hateful people that they are.

    I learned long time ago when I started on the internet with Black Planet message boards back when, that there are just some white people who are in love with us as much as the despise us for not being us; who will always interlope.

    They’re the kind of folks to where negative attention is better than no attention.
