The naivity of common people can be sometimes astonishing. People will believe anything they are asked to believe in; it doesn't take much more than knowing how to present things to them. It is not a secret that people are the easiest thing to manipulate in humankind. People are also the most dangerous thing there is against the individual because their power on the individual cannot be measured; all the intelligences and the knowledge and ambition of every individual can be dismissed by people. People become a neutral area where oppossing dreams and visions antagonize each other and discredit each other, allowing the group to maintain its illusion.

People, whoever they are, are like boats with no rudder, because they have no destination. All the apparent directions that the social efforts takes are nothing but the result of waves caused by the struggles among individual logic. People are the expression of the inclusive nature of the human species.

There is a great difference between the individual that has or believes to have the secret of the social manipulations and the rest; the difference between the two types of individuals is the same that exists between the individuals capable of convincing thousands of people to go into war, kill and die without knowing why and the rest. We've seen throughout the history of humanity examples of injustice done to individuals and people from which the descendants of the criminals and those of the victims until today are not succeeding on finding reasonable excuses.

The wisdom in Africa says that peace is not a word but an attitude. Humanity is still chanting its dream of peace and love for the last two millennia. In the Valleys of the Nile and Djoliba, the African societies had domesticated plants and animals; the fact that the African populations became the first to settle and practice agriculture became their crime. They were then forced to defend their tribes from looters coming from the actual North. The irony of the situation resides in the fact that to explain their looting of Africa, the European societies created the ideology of racism and xenophobia! First the Christian religion associated Blacks and people of color with the image of the Devil that the so-called White people must destroy, forgetting that it was them that crossed the Mediterranean and the other seas to go and dispossess other people of their wealth.

To give an approximate idea of the looting of the motherland, let's notice that even dead bodies of the Nile Valley were considered wealth. They were unearthed and embarked for European lands. The Europeans, until the year 1900 of the Gregorian Calendar, were considering dead bodies of Black people as magic potions that could cure their illnesses! These bodies were ground and sold in Europe in the form of a black powder called "Mummy Powder"!

If even dead bodies of a population are stolen from them, it becomes useless to talk about gold, temples, beliefs, culture, etc.
Of all tragedies that happen to people of color, the most difficult to understand is the one surrounding the concept of mummy powder. While Christianity was accusing some people of cannibalism, practically all the Christain churches, until the 17th century, were giving to their adepts the powder of African dead bodies as a way of healing them. This is not all; even the bodies of cats, dogs, rats, etc., were transported to Europe until the year 950 of the Julian Calendar; it was only the emergence of the Islamic doctrine that forced the reduction of the systematic looting of people of color.

If you are a person of color, to try to find a logical explanation of your oppression and your enslavement loses its value if you understand that your oppressor did not hesitate on feeding on your dead relatives!

Peace is truly a behavior and not a word. We know as people that every kind of people is like a hospital bed - its goal is to be used by a sick person of the moment; blaming a society is like blaming the bed for the actions of the sick. It is the river of behavior inside which a fish swims. It is to blame the Earth for the behavior of a mountain...we know that there are individuals that are entertaining the desire to commit all the crimes just to prove to the world that they are powerful; these individuals are dissuaded by their fear of the social vengeance, but they understand that they can push the society towards their own criminal aspirations and get the society to carry the responsibility not the crimes they are preparing to commit. It is the victory of the individual vice on the society. If the system has succeeded in convincing the European society into grinding the dried African dead bodies and eat them, if the system has succeeded in sending our young brothers and sisters to go to war against each other and die just to prove how powerful our leaders are...we must all recognize that it is the human society that is suffering from he adventurous nature of the individual. Until now, all the sufferings and contradictions that affect our societies are not succeeding to wake us up from our naivity. That naivity simply keeps us among the no-voice, no-ideas, no-judgement and no-goals.
