SSDD - (Entry 6: The Canton Repository- Prosecutor Ray Grogan) (439 hits)
Dear Diary,
I'm trying really hard not to make it totally impossible for the Canton Repository to publish this response. He's already likely to ignore it ya know? If I go too hard on the prosector, he won't get past the 2nd paragraph.. that white fragility is real. mfs hate to be held accountable for anything but love talkin sh*t.
Anyways, opinions like this of the prosecutor let you KNOW that these people are childish. For only a childish and unruly group of people believe they can wreak havoc on the world for centuries and expect everyone to just get over it. That they are absolved from reaping what they sow. And then have the sheer audacity to be runnin round here complaining about everything. It's a total misunderstanding of history and universal law.
I want to thank you for publishing the opinion of the Prosecutor, Mr. Ray Grogan. After my morning meditation, when I check my email, opinions like his, that arrive in my mailbox (I have an alert for anything related to systemic racism), tends to put a large grin on my face and places me in a mild state of bliss in crafting a reply. I sincerely thank you for giving me that moment. I’d like to share a perspective for the Prosecutor to consider. I find that those who share Mr. Grogan’s logic for “invisible racism” or the lack of proof for systemic racism somehow believe that we live in a vacuum, separated from the past or worse, attempt to force others to believe that we do.
Nonetheless, he should be reminded that colonialism is the ORIGINAL racism…that era when white men brought death and destruction to each and every set of indigenous people they met, globally. I have to use ORIGINAL because of all these later designations. That ORIGINAL brand of racism, called colonialism (the time period MAGA patriots are trying to re-live), set up a world of privilege for Mr. Grogan, and one of servitude for myself. The remnants of that “invisible” system is SYSTEMIC RACISM. Very astute of him to call it invisible. Slick. We’ll roll with it.
Now this is about the time that most scholars would bring up the “evidence” with jail statistics, police related shootings, healthcare numbers and other metrics that certainly make great cases for systemic racism… but I have a bit of an unorthodox approach to the systemic racism conversation and I furthermore want to ensure there’s no way possible that Mr. Grogan can say I’m “crying wolf when there's no beast in sight.” Because I want to in fact show some data and trends about the “real predators and beasts” in plain sight and I have to agree with him on the last part that, “nobody's ready to believe it!” Thank you for that lovely analogy Mr. Grogan.
The REAL white supremacists (unlike the closet racist chumps who expect black folks to be ignorant of history and root cause analysis) have come on out of the closet and have confirmed the scholarship of Dr. Francis Cress Welsing through the Great Replacement Theory. She says Systemic racism is a type of war waged specifically against black males. You released this statistic, “that in 2020 93% of the kids admitted into Ohio’s Department of Youth Services are male.” I’m not much of a gambling man but I’d be willing to bet that the largest percentage of that was black males, captivating Dr. Welsing’s point. Have him correct me if I’m wrong. Now, back to the real white supremacists. They offer more value to the discussion of systemic racism. At least we know where we stand with them. Mr. Grogan appreciates evidence… Luckily for him, only 3 hours away from Canton, the week of Thanksgiving, another white supremacist went into a store and targeted black people. We saw it happen in Jacksonville in late August as well. The beast who stormed a bowling in Maine didn’t seem to be racially motivated but his actions certainly fit the description of Great Replacement Theory terror that is poisoning the minds of young deluded white males. The predators in plain sight.. The REAL white supremacists who commit these acts of terror to inspire others to do the same. Here is the trend since the birth of Antiracism (aka trying to force white people not to be racist, a terrible idea btw):
-5 of top 30 deadliest mass shootings in the USA happened since 2020 (2 of these shootings have traces to the Great Replacement Theory)
-5 racially motivated shootings this year that traced to the Great Replacement Theory
Additionally, these statistics on hate crimes can be verified on the FBI Crime Data Explorer:
-Total hate crimes increased from 9,744 in 2020 to 11,613 in 2022.
-Anti-Black hate crimes accounted for 52.57% of race-related hate crimes in 2020, dipped to 49.55% in 2021, and increased to 52.12% in 2022.
-The percent increase in total hate crimes was 23.90% from 2019 to 2020, 11.09% from 2020 to 2021, and 7.28% from 2021 to 2022
I bring those numbers to the light because I actually believe systemic racism is failing and white america hates it. One overwhelming proof is January 6th. White men feel as if they have lost the country that was built for them. It’s tearing the country apart. For this reason, I think Antiracism is a horrible idea at this moment in history. I believe it triggers something within white supremacists causing these “mental health breakdowns” to the detriment of society. Counter racism is a much better idea. Mr. Grogan might be surprised to discover that I think black people have a personal responsibility to understand original racism and the resulting systemic racism. To figure it out and make the world a better place. Attached is a research paper that connects historical and theoretical perspectives on race with contemporary issues. With a proper understanding of why the real white supremacists are still carrying on their legacy of death and destruction, we can one day restore order. I appreciate your platform's help in amplifying this message. I also appreciate Mr. Grogan’s candidness, because to uncover these hidden biases, we need more people to speak honestly about how they feel.
In conclusion, if one has a sincere desire to solve problems they ALWAYS commit to root cause analysis. In the case of systemic racism, that would mean trying to undo or make amends for colonialism, America’s original sin (The same type of sin is the root of the problem in the “Middle East” btw). However, since the recent and current generations continue to divorce themselves from the past.. to also divorce themselves from the concept of reaping what you sow.. the burden of exposing the “invisible bogeyman” falls squarely on the shoulders of black people. Furthermore, since “necessity is the mother of invention”, our best scholars have already intellectually “Dismantled” systemic racism. Their wisdom lives on through Planetary Chess and it empowers black people with the knowledge to avoid systemic racism and to stay out the way of people like Mr. Grogan, the Prosecutor. His denial of historical reality in clinging to a decaying narrative, especially in his position.. is a bit alarming. For as Mr. Thomas Sowell also stated, “Mistakes can be corrected by those who pay attention to facts but dogmatism will not be corrected by those who are wedded to a vision.”
Thanks again for allowing me the opportunity to share a perspective of historical reality with Mr. Grogan of which I hope he appreciates for the height of racist rhetoric lies not only in the denial of yesteryear but in the need to also define that “invisible” system the racist continue to profit from.

P.S You might wonder why I’d take the time to reply to an article you may not even publish but let’s just say that your denial of this email serves to my benefit as well.
