Wednesday, May 1, 2019 (PW) — From Arab-Islamists’ controlled country, Sudan, now many South Sudanese have moved to some Western countries, only to find out that they have moved to where, also, racism is deeply and historically rooted.

Racism; in other words, white supremacy, is expressed in overt and in covert ways. It has been instilled in the mind and in the heart of the black man and the woman in such a way that makes it difficult, without a proper education, for them to even have a glimpse of the full, negative impact it has made upon their characters.

You, the receiving end of white supremacy have, in turn, become the giver, the promoter and the agent of white supremacy. You have become an agent who works for the white folks. I am also an agent who, likewise, works for the white folks.

The purpose of my writing is not just to criticize you; I am writing to state the truth about us. The truth is: we, South Sudanese, have become the products as well as the sales assistants of white supremacy.

If you are in your 50s, the only persons who were WHITE SUPREMACY FREE were your grandfather and your grandmother. They did not have it in them. As far as you are concerned, you are busy promoting white supremacy in the areas of your influence, all your social settings you happen to go to daily.

It is bitterly laughable when you, the black person, have become racist against your own kind without being aware of the fact that you have become racist.

Your situation is like a situation of a person who has been working for the mafia for many, many years without being aware that he had been working for the mafia and was getting paid for his work.

As for you, what you are being paid is nothing compared to the things you could have achieved and the things you are losing as the result. “How did they do it?” you may ask. For the white racist scholars, scientists, and theorists, who have developed the concept of racism for centuries, it is easy.

Their theory of racism, over centuries, has been taken to practice by laypersons. You are the product that they can jointly show to prove that they have been successful.

Their success has shown itself in you, will show itself in your children and will show itself in your grandchildren. Whenever you completely fail to understand the nature of racism, you go, “Oh! Oh! Oh!

I don’t understand what have become of me; I don’t understand what have become of my fellow South Sudanese!” You and your fellow South Sudanese have been fooled. That is what you and your fellow South Sudanese have become.
