I remember
that my social studies teacher said that the United States (US) is an
experiment whereby people of other nations are melted into one. I remember
thinking, how wonderful! But today, I ask, where is that melting pot?
José
Feliciano sang the Star Spangled Banner in the 1968 World Series. Most US citizens
criticized him, “supposedly for his unique interpretation of it”. Would they
have criticized him if he were a blue eyed and a blond haired artist? Click

That same
year, Dr. Martin Luther Jr. was assassinated in Memphis Tennessee, because he
was fighting for civil rights for US Black citizens. Why does anyone who is a
citizen of a nation have to fight for his civil rights? Isn't that supposed to
come automatically?
Obviously, many
people resist this melting pot idea. Elvis Presley seized the opportunity to close
his 1968 TV special with a song written especially to express his sentiment, “If
I could Dream”. Click here to watch that video: https://youtu.be/u-pP_dCenJA
These people
who resist the melting pot idea are alive and well today. Many of them are
President Trump’s supporters.
José Feliciano
said in a recent interview, that nobody loves the United States more than he
does. Too bad that his love isn’t reciprocated by a great portion of US
citizens! Click here to watch that video: https://youtu.be/xd9JXol7otM
Rodney King
said, after being almost beaten to death by the police, “Why can’t we all be
friends?” We can’t as long as racists are in power! www.TodosUnidosDescolonizarPR.blogspot.com
Why can’t we
all be friends?
The reconstruction
of the United States (US) after her Civil War was supposed to put Blacks on
equal footing with Whites. The problem with her reconstruction is that the US
was born out of racism. The following video will walk you through the history
that you need to know to understand why US racism is alive and well today: https://youtu.be/8dS_lYUiYF4
President
Andrew Johnson showed his racism by pardoning all those wealthy former slave
owners of treason after the Civil War, so that they could reconstruct slavery.
Therefore, the US government stands for, like Governor George Wallace said, “Segregation
today, segregation tomorrow, and segregation forever!”
Is this the
US that most of her citizens want?

The Spanish
colonization was interested in gold, glory and God. Click on the following link

Spanish colonization
looked to incorporate the indigenous people, while the English looked to
eradicate them from their lands. Adolf Hitler was not particularly happy
with going to war against England, because, he felt, that she was so much like
Germany.
Slavery
versus the final solution!
Tune in to this week’s episode of Fanachu! featuring Dr. Carlyle Corbin, an internationally recognized expert on self-governance and non-self-governing territories.
According to the United Nations, 17 forms colonies remain in the world today in need of decolonization (although the true number would be much higher). Dr. Corbin will share his thoughts as the UN prepares to inaugurate The Fourth International Decade for the Eradication of Colonialism.
Episode will be live on Facebook on Thursday (12/17) at 11 am Chamorro Standard Time and on Wednesday (12/16) at 9 pm Atlantic Standard Time in the US Virgin Islands.

Puerto Rico
has been a United States (US) colony for the past 122 years. The US government (USG)
has been willing to commit a crime against humanity in order to do this. The USG has
violated for the past 75 years the United Nations’ (UN) Charter that prohibits
colonialism, and has also ignored 39 UN resolutions asking it to
immediately return Puerto Rico’s sovereignty to the Puerto Ricans. http://webtv.un.org/watch/5th-meeting-committee-of-24-special-committee-on-decolonization/6051725003001/
