South Carolina's Trees Bears'Strange Fruits'

Strange Fruit

Southern trees bear strange fruit,
Blood on the leaves and blood at the root,
Black bodies swinging in the southern breeze,
Strange fruit hanging from the poplar trees.

Pastoral scene of the gallant south,
The bulging eyes and the twisted mouth,
Scent of magnolias, sweet and fresh,
Then the sudden smell of burning flesh.

Here is fruit for the crows to pluck,
For the rain to gather, for the wind to suck,
For the sun to rot, for the trees to drop,
Here is a strange and bitter crop.




Kalagenesis
The above was a song written by a Jewish school teacher in the Bronx NY but immortalized by the legendary Blues singer Billy Holiday.The song describes the South of the Post Civil War era.What is unique to the South is the level of human degradation that the Black race endured and continues to endure.The practice of lynching which many experts acknowledge happened throughout the United States since the beginning of this country by no means was confined to the Black race.Everyone from suspected witches,criminals,rapist,foreigners,cheats all were lynched in almost every part of the country.The persecution of the Black people and the level of violence and savagery is something unigue to the American South.In other parts it was mob violence motivated by lies and false acusations.In the South the lynchings involved any Black person who happed to be in the mobs path.And they happened for the pure carnival like atmosphere bring Whites together for a blood thirsty orgy of savage violence.Tulsa Oklahoma,Wilmington NC,Rosewood Fl,St Louis,ect all were attempts at genocide,and the subjugation of the Black race in America.The blood that stained the Southern soil has and still is producing strange fruit.
South Carolina is the definition of the Strange Fruits
The past 20 years while some Southern states have made progress in bringing a New South for its residents.By attracting people from different parts of the world North Carolina,Virginia,Maryland has in fact turned into fairly progressive states.In South Carolina the home of the Godfather of the old segregationist south Strom Thurmond,the state has not moved at all in terms of race relations.White people no matter how uneducated still think they are the superior of Black people.Racial profiling and the Ku Klux Klan still is the order of the day.Now we see the racism seeping into the national stage.Republican Senator Jim Demitt says he wants to use Health Care to break President Obama.Congressman Joe Wilson screams"You lie"infront of Congress at the President,now we have a Lt Gov from that state making a statement liking poor people to animals saying we should not feed them.Now I wonder why no one from this state has spoken up about the crazy racist people in charge in that state?
Southern Trees Have born very strange Black Fruits
When looking at the African American community one cant but notice the very different Southern Black community.This is the community of Tyler Perry,a community still struggling with the direct effects of slavery.From a cultural standpoint the South did not experience the Harlem Renaissance or the Big city dynamics of Detroit or Chicago.What was unique about those areas like New York was the creation of Black enclaves where Black people were parts of those cities.This created a natural sense of unity and kinship which the South did not have, with the exception of Atlanta.Now the music and culture of South Hip hop seems to be the most popular Black music.But if one looks at the language and self degrading images of the South and look at places like Miami,New Orleans,Virginia and see the almost daily carnage which by itself is bad enough.But to Whites in the South this is entertainment.Black on Black crime here in the South is seen as normal.White people are never bothered by so called bad neighborhoods or high crime rates.They are oblivious to the daily carnage as if they are bulletproof.Why is the South the only place in the US like this.It is because it is so rooted in apathy and a system of White supremecy that the people Black and White dont question it just accept it as the natural order.In the South Black women can have seven children and never even expect to get married.Fathers have no fatherly relations with their kids,on the whole it is normal not to know ones father.White people control all of the wealth especially Black people's like it is theirs.This is the Strange Fruits of the Modern South

The New Confederacy.Still racist and backward

Here in the modern United States where we have witnessed so many great things as well as tragedies we still have backward thinking people who don't want to progress.Now before you start picking on Billy Bob inbred,I am not just talking about him.All over the country people particularly in the South are talking about how they want their country back.Back from what we may ask?The clues can be found in the number of militia groups,hate groups,birthers,tea baggers,ect who are openly opposed the the Presidency of Barack Obama.Ignorance combined with paranoia,about having a Black family in the White House is bringing attitudes many told us was in the past back to the present.The number of racist groups who hide their racism under the guise of being concerned about spending,this is the racist belief that black men are irresponsible and out to destroy the White man's civilization.Now there are millions of non White people living in the Southeastern United States,why do so many White people think they can talk about succeeding from the Union violently if necessary without regard to the fact the African Americans would not want any part of their Neo Confederate society.You see the Neo Confederates are the lowest form of RACIST.The like to hide behind legitimate movements like the conservatives and other groups.They know like their ancestors their real aim or target is the menacing Black man in their society.It is no accident that the most racist areas have the highest Black on Black crime,poverty,unemployment ect.In the old order of the South all White people belong to an aristocrat class based on White skin color.They the racist try to hide this and talk about Southern pride.What exactly is Southern Pride?Besides the fact that at one time White people completely controlled Black people in this region.Even White Northerners traditionally supported Southern traditions romantically because they can imagine an illusion of importance at the Black races expense.This is what the South means to people who go there.White supremency is the 800lb gorilla in the room.You cannot think about the South without thinking of slavery and the oppression of Black people.Those who do are liars and hypocrites.


Some Whites spit on the graves of people who shed blood for this country
I am always amazed that everytime I hear White people talk they talk about hating government.CNN just did a report about militia groups in Michigan arming themselves against what they perceive as an oppressive government.You have Neo Nazi groups calling for an overthrow of ZOG.Zionist Occupied Government,Even so called mainstream politicians and journalist talking of harming elected officials(Bill Oreilly threatening House Speaker Nancy Pilosi)Most of the right wing anger come from the fact that they believe only people like them are suppose to prosper in this country.When other people do it is at their expense.So they attack Barack Obama as a socialist for reigning in greed,and corruption on Wall Street.
Sarah Palin's supported Alaska and Texas succession
Yes this is a woman who in her new book she calls for profiling based on what happened at Fort Hood.She says political correctness is killing us.What about her association with far right wing groups who say the US government in the enemy.This is all rooted in the spread of the confederate culture to all aspects of White America.They are the enemies of America not the Muslim community.The racist right wing are a threat to national security but they get a pass because they are White and only non Whites can be terrorist and threaten America.Take a good listen to people who curse this country its flag but never get called out for it much less an investigation
