The appearance of fascism and ultra-rightwing forces at the highest levels of the major political parties and within the government and the Courts, as well as armed paramilitary groups whose members number in the hundreds of thousands, is not just a threat to Black folk in the US, but to democracy in the world and to international peace and security. We are appealing for emergency action on the part of the world community to act to interrupt and reverse this growing and ominous threat to the lives and well being of Black folk. We make this appeal not just on our behalf, but on behalf of world peace. We look first and foremost to Asia and Africa, who like us have experienced racial, colonial and neo-colonial oppression. We repeat, we foresee a horrific human tragedy if concerted international action is not forthcoming.
Black folk live under a regime of terror in their communities and homes.
Seldom does this terror intrude into the lives of White America. They, therefore, support the police and courts. In this respect there is a crucial political disconnect between Black and White opinion. Whites, generally, enjoy bourgeois freedoms and liberties, within the structures of US capitalism. Africans Americans are politically and legally marginalized and under assault.
