Controlling the narrative is literally white people’s strategy throughout all of history. It started with the Romans who were master propagandists. We think money and innovation is why “white” people are where they are today? Not a chance. They understood controlling the narrative long before Napoleon lopped off the African noses in Egypt. Long before every movie contained a white woman as the character to be sought after. Long before every news outlet conservative and progressive reported black people as thugs. This is literally their superpower. It’s what they are born to do from cradle to grave. As black people we tend to just be transparent and open. This is why throughout all of history while we were living ….they were plotting. We were inviting them to dinner and teaching them how to plant crops. They were plotting. We must see the whole picture. For a black person to control their own narrative in a world full of “people socialized to be white” is about 2,000 years too late and that’s on Jesus and his Roman Apostle Paul.
