I am going to read you that letter now and let you know that the author of it is sitting across from me. It reads, "My name is Philip Tourney. I am 77 years old today. On June 8th, 1967, I was just 20 years old when the gallant crew of the USS Liberty was savagely attacked. Our American flag was proudly flying on our ship in the Mediterranean Sea that day. The designation AGTR5 was clearly painted on the bow, port, and starboard sides. USS Liberty was written in English on her stern. When we arrived on June 7th, an Israeli Reconnaissance aircraft overflew us, and the same activity was repeated on the morning of June 8th. We were positively identified as American and friendly by the IDF. We had requested a destroyer escort long before we entered the Mediterranean, but we were denied twice. Our captain assured us that we were clearly marked as American, and we therefore had nothing to fear. We were alone 12 and half miles off the coast of the Sinai Peninsula, always in international waters. The Israeli reconnaissance aircraft were clearly marked with the Star of David. We therefore felt secure seeing a flying boxcar and other smaller recon propeller aircraft taking good care of us.

The ship was clearly marked; Amer flag was flying. The crew believed they had already been identified. But w/I minutes, the Liberty was under fire. Rockets, cannon rounds, napalm, and a torpedo strike left 34 American sailors dead & 171 wounded. Israel later claimed it was a tragic case of mistaken identity.

Understand why nothing is getting done for the Black Community. They're not passing any bills. The so-called Reparations Bill that people ask Jim Clyburn about, they don't intend to pass it. It exists in Congress only for symbolic reasons & for you to think you have reps when you don't. AIPAC says, it is both a grassroots organization & leadership empowerment organ., concerned not with African-Americans, but those African-Americans that will be part of the Congressional Black Caucus.

These are the Negroes that they support. Look at all them Negroes get money from AIPAC. This is straight off their website. Is the People Before Politics show broadcast every Sunday at 6 p.m. Hosts Damon K. Jones and AJ Woodson bring you the news that impacts our community. Join us for unfiltered, unapologetic coverage of the stories that matter most. Black Westchester magazine presents the People Before Politics show, the news and I'm going to go back to where I really think it's like disrespectful to Black media. When me or you, AJ, when we put out these articles to try to inform the public, the first thing they do is send us what the white media says. I think it's disrespectful, especially from Black people. So with the national conversation around Israel and what's going on with Israel in 1964, Malcolm wrote an article called Zionist Logic and it was published and in a paper in the Middle East and he and he talks about how the Zionists and he said this in 1964 will control the thoughts and the media and how we perceive things and control our politicians. So then I decided I decided to say, "Hey man, do they control our politicians?" So in the follow-up in part two in Zionist logic, absolutely. They control our politicians. They control our politicians. The entire Congressional Black Caucus gets money from AIPAC. And if you go to AIPAC's website, they brag on how much money they give to the Congressional Black Caucus. And you wonder why we can never get all these Black people to stand up for a bill to study reparations. But yet our first Black president, Barack Obama, our first Black president, Barack Obama, cuts a deal for $8.3 billion a year for 10 years to go to Israel. But when the Democratic Party controlled the House and the Senate and the White House, we couldn't get a bill to study reparations, let alone making the payment that Martin Luther King Jr. went to Washington to get..

Stephen Darby discusses how the Black Community has been under a management system since Reconstruction. Blacks formed secret societies to mimic white societies & are now being used to manage the Black Comm. in the hood. The majority of what’s been done to Blacks is done by Gatekeepers. These Black Greeks divert you from your real enemy to focus on each other. If they don’t let you in, you don’t get in, jobs, clubs, etc. It’s the old Taskmaster Sys=Advisors to the King.
Black lawmakers remain a pillar of US support for Israel, accepting millions of dollars from the pro-Israel lobbying group AIPAC despite growing public outrage over Israel’s genocide in Gaza. Why is the Congressional Black Caucus, founded as “the conscience of Congress”, so vocal in support of Israel? WHY ARE THEY SILENT IN SUPPORT FOR REPARATIONS FOR BLACK AMERICANS?

Glenn Ford, the exec. editor of Black Agenda Rept, talked about Gaza. I want to get a sense of what the reaction has been to all of this by the Black political class negligible shocking. In Great Britain the Black Student Union, the Natl Black Student Union has joined in condemning Israel's vicious attacks on Gaza, but we hear no condemnation here in the U.S. A couple of wks ago the hs as well as the Senate passed a unanimous resolution giving Israel a blank check .
For decades, voices like Amos Wilson, Claude Anderson, Minister Louis Farrakhan, grassroots activists, & independent Black media carried the conversation on reparations when few politicians, tv hosts, or establishment leaders wanted to touch the issue. Now suddenly reparations is everywhere. Why? The Publisher's Desk, Damon K. Jones examines the sudden surge in reparations rhetoric following the announcement of the Trump Administration's Anti-Weaponization Fund

I can show you the map of the 13 districts, which was the 13 colonies, 13 banks & 13 families. The reason why I'm saying that the Black Caucus, as an example, they had 13 founding members, been around since 1971. Itt’s 2026, that's 55 yrs; name one thing the CBC did for so-called Black Americans. Name one. And that's even when DEI or affirmative action were active. I'm asking what did they change in favor of the so-called Black American families? Our people need to do our own.
Israeli Zionists are convinced they have successfully camouflaged their new kind of colonialism. Their colonialism appears to be more "benevolent," more "philanthropic," a sys with which they rule simply by getting their potential victims to accept their friendly offers of econ. "aid," & other tempting gifts dangled in front of the newly-ind African nations, whose economies are experiencing great difficulties. In this present era of enlightenment the African masses are awakening.

One of the most fundamental and far-reaching deeds that has been accomplished during the last quarter of a century has been that by which the Negro has been helped to find himself and to learn the secrets of civilization–to learn that there are a few simple, cardinal principles upon which a race must start its upward course, unless it would fail, and its last estate be worse than its first.
On the plantation in Virginia, and even later, Douglass tells how meals were given to the children, very much as dumb animals get theirs. It was a piece of bread here and a scrap of meat there. It was a cup of milk at one time and some potatoes at another.
