| willie lynch family tree: 2012 the Ending of the Willie Lynch Letter Le Brown a. K. a. Phenomenal Le, 2014-09 I wrote this piece to enlighten the minds of people in the world, especially blacks/African-Americans, about the negative psychological effects of the Willie Lynch Letter. This malicious labyrinth has impacted many lives, causing ignorance, broken homes, disrespectfulness, and poor health throughout the nation. I'm concentrating more on aiding blacks/African-Americans because this ethnic group statistically leads America in negative aspects of life, such as heart disease, poverty, broken homes, incarcerations, lack of education, etc.-and the fact that this system was directed toward African-Americans. Although all cultures and nationalities suffer from such downfalls because of such a melting pot society we live in, any man, woman, or child is capable of falling victim to Lynch's negative behavioral application. Mankind, as a whole, needs an improvement. About the Author Le Brown a.k.a. Phenomenal Le was born and raised in Florence, South Carolina. He currently lives in Charlotte, North Carolina. |

Likewise, CoDependency Addiction, similar to the Earth revolving around our Sun, it-too-revolves around the absence of mother, father, or mother surrogate love in a child’s life and beyond. It is the primary source from which it originates, develops, and thrives within the mind-body of an affected human being. Mother, father, and mother surrogate love is the fuel that drives the development of an infant through the dependency state one is born in into the higher conscious awareness interdependency state. Initially, mother or mother surrogate love is used to assist their infant to self-actualize, namely to learn he or she is love by being loved by their parents. If this most critical step is missed, at a most critical time in the early development of an infant, from birth to six years old; unfortunately, the latter does not evolve emotionally to the interdependency state, in which the child, by this time, knows one Self as being love, and who realizes simultaneously that it is necessary to give their love to another human being, and by doing so, one is enabled to learn and experience what it feels like to be loved. When this irreplaceable process is carried-out according to Nature, the child is embodied with the fundamental tool to transform Self progressively into a “work of art.” One of the many contributions this book makes to our understanding of CoDependency Addiction is, when a child does not evolve emotionally into the interdependency state, he or she remains in a dependency state beyond appropriate years. By six years old, a child, who has been adequately nurtured with love from the outset, develops in their brain what is called “love circuits.” In the absence of mother or mother surrogate love during this crucial time, these circuits-empathy, kindness, caring, altruism, friendship, compassion, etc.-are replaced with others such as anger, shame, denial, guilt, low self-esteem, not good enough, unworthiness, narcissisms, ego etc. It is in this developmental space we find the origin of CoDependency Addiction manifested in an affected person’s adult life. Unable to make genuine friends and be loved, both of which are cornerstones of the interdependency state, fear and self-preservation emerge as a daily preoccupation and concern. This book outlines in detail how CoDependency Addiction is repressed within one’s injured and wounded “self,” and because of denial and projection, a web of deception is employed to “Go Along, To Get Along.” Although the hypnotic rhythm makes healing more formidable as the years pass, the solution is determination to shatter denial. Marteau X received his Doctor of Philosophy Degree from the University of Colorado, Boulder in 1977. He has spent 40 years studying social philosophy and dialectical materialism, including alienation and Psychology. He lives with his family in Baltimore, MD. |

Few realize that their morning mouthwash bears the name of a life- saving British baron or that their sugary graham crackers would be abhorred by the health-food fanatic who concocted the flavorless original recipe. Throughout history, the proper names of figures both noble and notorious have slipped into the common and uncommon corners of our vocabulary. Tawdry Knickers and Other Unfortunate Ways to Be Remembered details the lamentable lives and legacies of history's most infamous namesakes and the words they inspired: *Henry Shrapnel died of natural causes, despite having invented the shells whose shattering fragments would rain hellfire on soldiers from the Battle of Waterloo through the Vietnam War. *Poor virgin St. Audrey suffered from a bulging neck tumor and the unwanted advances of an unsympathetic husband, but never lived to hear crass vendors eventually hawk her tawdry lace. *If New York blueblood Harmen Knickerbocker isn't rolling over in his grave, his nineteenth-century drawers are at least in a twist over having his venerable family name associated with underwear. *Barbara Handler has never been happy about providing the name for the original Barbie, to say nothing of her doll's plastic relationship with Ken-named for her real-life brother. *In contrast to these, dynamite inventor Alfred Nobel avoided the inevitable merchant of death epitaph awaiting him by using his enormous explosives fortune to establish the Nobel Prize Foundation. Want to know where your words come from? The surprising, humorous, and often ironic stories behind ninety notable eponyms will take you on an undercover tour of the etymological sausage factory. |
| willie lynch family tree: The False Cause Adam H. Domby, 2020-02-11 The Lost Cause ideology that emerged after the Civil War and flourished in the early twentieth century in essence sought to recast a struggle to perpetuate slavery as a heroic defense of the South. As Adam Domby reveals here, this was not only an insidious goal; it was founded on falsehoods. The False Cause focuses on North Carolina to examine the role of lies and exaggeration in the creation of the Lost Cause narrative. In the process the book shows how these lies have long obscured the past and been used to buttress white supremacy in ways that resonate to this day. Domby explores how fabricated narratives about the war’s cause, Reconstruction, and slavery—as expounded at monument dedications and political rallies—were crucial to Jim Crow. He questions the persistent myth of the Confederate army as one of history’s greatest, revealing a convenient disregard of deserters, dissent, and Unionism, and exposes how pension fraud facilitated a myth of unwavering support of the Confederacy among nearly all white Southerners. Domby shows how the dubious concept of black Confederates was spun from a small number of elderly and indigent African American North Carolinians who got pensions by presenting themselves as loyal slaves. The book concludes with a penetrating examination of how the Lost Cause narrative and the lies on which it is based continue to haunt the country today and still work to maintain racial inequality. |

| willie lynch family tree: The InEvitable Change Anna Mae Faith, 2023-09-10 This is a Novel based on true facts. It was written because I had no voice during the times I wanted and needed to be heard. I prayed and pondered in my mind on how I could let my voice be heard, to be a help to my family and my children. Friends turned their backs on us and people began to have stares and whispers about my family. My son Demetrius Jr was charged and convicted in a murder case that also implicated Demetrius Jr’s father Demetrius Sr. These novels I have written speak our truth on how we survived troubled times when we had no way but made a way out of no way by the goodness and gracefulness from my “LORD” and SAVIOR JESUS CHRIST. I therly go into details in depth about each one of my children in these novels on how their lives were turned upside down in the blink of an eye. We were thrown out to society to be the most hated family in all the surrounding areas we lived in and lived nearby. We survived deaths threats and actions that were brought to our home and reported to the local police department with no action taken on their part. I am a mother of 5 children and each one of them was impacted by racism and hate in many ways that was reported with no action taken. I wanted to write these novels for my children because I felt as if I couldn’t protect them when they needed to be protected. These novels speak about how corrupted and disloyal the system is to African American people. These Novels are based on what its like being born black outlining how the black alpha males in my family had a strike against them when they were born into this world as a black male. In these readings I detail the differences made when you’re a black male and black female born into a society that controls the maintenance of your life. When I say maintenance, I mean the fact of how you are stereo typed be how you wear your hair, how you talk, how you walk, how you are restricted from wearing certain colors, your body language and your eye contact that’s displayed while in front of certain white officials. The fact that as a black male when your brought up against charges with the law you are automatically guilty, and you must prove your innocence. When the law clearly states that you are innocent, and you must be proven guilty well that sounds good but that’s not how it is as a black male or female. Racism is live and well in this country we live in called America home of the free. |
| willie lynch family tree: And Yet, We Still Stand Millicent Thomas, PhD, 2016-06-06 And yet, We still stand is the second book in the Move Mountain, African-American, single parent series. Book two takes you on a political, social and economic journey from Washington (DC) to Walmart; from the top of the heap to the bottom of the pit and from a strategic agenda of disenfranchisement to its execution in the political, economic and social arenas. We move from impersonal to the personal and from the macro to the micro aspects of the impact on families and children. As the reader travels through the pages, we examine the shadow side of human nature from a political perspective. The descending and ascending order of events that impact the lives of African- Americans is exacerbated among single parents. Hypotheses, reasons, and justifications are put forth with relation to the why and how target groups are treated. We move back in time before the days of the Mayflower to answer the why inquiry and move forward stopping to visit the infamous communication of Willie Lynch to answer the how. Because education is vital to African Americans, we take a critical look at public education on all levels and ask, Are the strategies and techniques used to educate our children by design? Or, are those who develop educational materials using a system of miss education and, or selective education? In our journey we stop to revisit the workplace experiences of fifteen African-American, female, single parents from the later 20th century and ask, when is a change a change? The third section proposes the ultimate recommendation, one that is not popular in many circles yet, is extremely powerful. This is a must read for all! |
| willie lynch family tree: We Are the President Daniel Washington, 2011-06-09 Most people are simply tired of hearing about racism and hate crimes, and most of all ,'slavery'. This book is to up lift all races, to raise the esteem of children who grew up around all others, who came before them, in this unjust system of things. I hope it educates, mentors, and gives hope to make one look into the mirror and ask yourself: Who am I?, What am I?, and Where did I come from? And the biggest question to ask yourself should be: WHAT IS A NIGGER? and am l one? |

| willie lynch family tree: Marse H. D. Kirkpatrick, 2022-02-15 Marse: A Psychological Portrait of the Southern Slave Masterand His Legacy of White Supremacy focuses on the white men who composed the antebellum southern planter class in the period of 1830-1861. This book is a psychological autopsy of the minds and behaviors of enslavers that helps explain the enduring roots of white supremacy and the hidden wound of racist slavery that continues to affect all Americans today. Marse details and illustrates examples of the psychological mechanisms by which southern slave masters justified owning another human being as property and how they formed a society in which enslavement was morally acceptable. Kirkpatrick uses forensic psychology to analyze the personality formation, defense mechanisms, and psychopathologies of slave masters. Their delusional beliefs and assumptions about Black Africans extended to a forceful cohort of white slaveholding women, as well as how they twisted Christianity to promote slavery as a positive good. He examines the masters’ stresses and fears, and how they coped by developing psychologically fatal, slavery-specific defense mechanisms. Utilizing sources such as the vast treasure trove of slavery historiography, diaries, letters, autobiographies, and sermons, Marse describes the ways in which slaveholders created a delusional worldview that sanctioned cruel instruments of punishment and implemented laws and social policies of domination used to rob Blacks of their human rights. The seismic shift in race relations our nation is experiencing right now make this book timely, as it will advance our understanding of the South’s self-defeating romance with racist slavery and its latent and chronic effects. The parallels between the psychology of antebellum slaveholding and today’s racism are palpable. |

Acuña, 2017-01-26 A revision of the popular previous edition published more than a decade earlier, this work examines today's U.S. Latino population-now arguably the most important minority group in the country, with numbers well over 50 million strong in an increasingly diverse and integrated America. Latinos are the largest minority in the United States, and as such, Latino Americans have a tremendous influence on the culture, workforce, economy, and politics of this country. This second edition of U.S. Latino Issues provides updated content, stats, and data for each topic, and it frames critical questions and multiple viewpoints on Latinos in the United States that will be useful to student researchers. The responses to the critical questions come from Latino experts and scholars and other well-known subject experts, providing readers with insights from various informed points of view-all in a single volume. The book covers hundreds of topics regarding Latino Americans, such as gender, sexuality, indigenous culture, race and cultural identity, health and wellness, education, and interracial dating and marriage, and it offers in-depth comparisons of the Latino groups and shows how events in their native countries affect them. Readers will have access to concise and up-to-date information on controversial topics such as affirmative action, immigration reform, open borders policy versus border enforcement, changing relations between the United States and Cuba, and Puerto Rico's contested status as a commonwealth versus a state. |

| willie lynch family tree: ECHOES OF ANCIENT AFRICAN VALUES Joseph A. Bailey, II, M.D., F.A.C.S., 2005-07-18 Ancient Africans, perhaps around 5500 BC, established a tradition based upon truth, goodness, beauty, and other immaterial and intangible aspects of things of worth. Believing all of God’s creations were forever linked, they focused on having good relations with and behaviors toward fellow human beings and with nature – both for the purpose of reaching a heaven afterlife. Out of these concepts arose the sense of community, including the practice of no person being left behind. Echoes of Ancient African Values discusses who Ancient Africans were as a people; their genius and creative ways of thinking; their philosophical and spiritual foundations; and their world shaping achievements. Unfortunately, peoples throughout the world have failed to realize or acknowledge the fact that Ancient Africans have produced the most brilliance civilization and culture the world has ever known. This applies whether the measure is by significance, greatness, or numbers. The fashioning of such brilliance inside high morals not only transcended space and time but also designed sublime echoes. A major premise of this book is that these echoes were extremely instrumental in enabling Ancient African slaves to survive their hellish situation as well as having ongoingly contributed to the recovery of Black Americans from the effects of slavery. Numerous examples are given. Otherwise, what is stressed to all peoples in the world is that Ancient African Values contain workable answers for solving every type of problem concerning humanity. |
