| My name is Neely Fuller and I am the author of a textbook/workbook
for victims of racism and I define racism simply as White Supremacy and
every thing that I say should be questioned. Cause some of the things that
I say are going to be unorthodox, maybe all of it. And its been my experience
that whenever I make one of these presentations is the initial reaction
is that non-white people, black people will be embarrassed, white people
will be offended, but theres no way to talk about race, racism or counter-racism,
tell the truth about it, and make recommendations based on that truth without
that happening. that been my observation. Thats an automatic, thats a given.
If you try to do it in a nice, what you call sanitized, pleasant way, you're
going to evade the truth, and everybody's going to be in an excellent feel
good session thats not going to solve a single problem, ever. Thats the
premise. Its a problem that been around a long time, everybody from polititians,
philosophers, to preachers, tried to do their best, they claim, to solve
it. But nobody has. One of the secretaries of H.E.W. I believe once said
that he threw up his arms in despair cause he couldn't get anything done
in the workplace at H.E.W. because everything, every plan, no matter how
ingenious, that was put in place, they ran into the quote/unquote "race
problem" and it all fell apart. Which means that if this keeps happening
over and over again, whether you're talking about a problem in housing,
problem in the workplace, in a work section of the workplace, or in going
in outer space, somewhere along the line is a big question mark about what
are you going to do with "them". Meaning the colored people. It
keeps coming up over and over and over and over and over again and then
all of the machinations start from there. All of the lying, all of the "let's
prepare to say this in a nice way", ecetera, ecetera, ecetera... We
loosely call it racism, and we scatter that word around all over the place.
Some years ago I studied it at least to my own satisfaction, I said what
they're really talking about is two words "White Supremacy". That's
what you're talking about. Don't let that word racism bounce around any
longer and separate it from the term "White Supremacy". Which
means, that if you're white, you're royal, basically. You might not have
all of the trapes of being royal like all of the money you want, and certainly
thats not likely to be, but you are in the royal category from birth. Someone
thought of this idea a long time ago, it took off like a rocket, cause nobody
had ever though of it before. Let do all of the world's business based on
what color somebody is. ALL, not some, ALL of the entire world's business
based on first of all pointing to a person and categorizing a person by
color. Get that straight first. Then start figuring what are you going to
do from that point on. Thats basic, thats what the system of White Supremacy
means. It doesn't mean three or four people who are called skin heads or
nazis riding around in a station wagon and yelling "nigger" out
of the window. Thats the classic way of looking at it, that the narrow way
of looking at it. White Supremacy is an entire system. Global system, wall
to wall, floor to ceiling, that operates 24 hours a day and it has exact
rules. The same exact rules that you would have to have if you were going
to make a space shot. You can't leave anything to chance what-so-ever. Everything
has to be very carefully orchestrated. And like I said, everything that
I say should be, must be, questioned. Cause I'm not an expert on what I'm
talking about. Why wouldn't I be an expert? Cause I'm a victim of it. If
I was an expert, I would be a victim. The only experts in the field of White
Supremacy are who? The White Supremacist themselves. They are the only people
who know how they put that apparatus together, they're the only people who,
right now, know how to take it apart. This is why white people who don't
want to be racist or say that the race problem should be solved, should
be about the business of taking it apart. Now I have some slides up here
that were produced for me. The Color of People and How to Produce Quality
Relationships in the Workplace. Well, the workplace is an excellent place
to start, but, actually quality relationships should be everywhere. Cause
that's what you should be producing in place of the system of racism. See
if you take something away, you have to put something in it's place, that's
what I call the law of compensation. People in the scientific field they
know something about vacuums and all like that, something will fill that
vacuum. Even space fills the vacuum. Space probably is what we call a vacuum.
Its a filling of some type. You might can look at it that way. But when
you take away the system of White Supremacy you have to replace it with
something that works. Naturally that thing that works would be a thing called
"justice". Cause thats what "it" takes away. Like I
said, its a system of "royalism". Royalism is going out all over
the world, even though everybody's trying to hold onto it. Its a dying system.
People still in a almost jestful way will look at Princess Di and Prince
Charles and really they kinda snicker about it now. It used to be that this
was all really pretty solid business. The king could do no wrong. And you
even have hotels, even today, that are named in a royal fashion. The Royal
Arms, the Royal this, the Empress Room... still holding onto it. George
Washington and company was supposed to have gotten rid of it, or the idea
of Kings and Queens. But everybody still talks that way. We buy novels thats
based on what we call royalty. Is some buildings in the workplace, the people
who are in charge, if they're all in the same section of the building, I
have heard it referred to as "Kings Row". Go up and check in Kings
Row and let them tell you what to do. The great unwatched servants of the
Kings and Queens from down in Kings Row. But, so that I don't digress too
much. I want to take this in progressive order. The color of people and
how to produce quality relationships in the workplace, thats what we're
going to talk about. Is Quality Work possible without Quality Relationships?
Presumably the answer is no. If you would say yes, well you can discuss
that within the Q/A period, hopefully we'll have enough time for that. Three
basic requirements in the establishment of peace, you have to reveal truth,
produce justice which means balance between people, which means...and I'm
making up these definition, cause they're not dictionary definitions, which
is something you have to do to fill the vacuum, under compensatory law,
I said I've written a book based on the law of compensation. Justice is
balance between, but to keep that from being abstract, you say, guaranteeing
that no person is mistreated and guaranteeing that the person that needs
help the most gets the most help. Now thats in the workplace or any other
place. You look around in this room and you say "who needs the most
help?". If you are person who believes in justice, you go for that
person and you help that person the most. In a classroom, when a teacher
is in a classroom, there used to be the old royal concept, I've heard teachers
say this, "I've got mine, you've got yours to get", to use an
old "top sergeant" formula. And I will take ten percent of the
students and I'm gonna make them geniuses, the rest of you are just a bunch
of trash. Now a lot of teachers have taken that position cause thats the
old royal system. We're supposed to be coming out of the royal system, worldwide.
Some people call it democracy, there are different names for it, thats supposed
to replace it. A better term for it is "Justice". Because if you
don't have justice in a so-called democracy you haven't got anything but
a work anyway. But getting back to it, you reveal truth. You've gotta have
truth before you can get Justice and thats what we're supposed to be producing
right now. This is a truth seminar. Unless Fuller is up here starting off
telling a bunch of lies. In which case, using your scientific minds, you
raise questions about anything that sounds false and knock it down before
it gets off the ground. Justice, you guarantee that the person who needs
help the most gets the most help. Otherwise, you don't have justice. Theres
no such thing as justice being in one place and not in another. It's indivisible...
just like someone once said way before me. Can't divide it up, can't chop
it up into little boxes. Its either or. Either you have it or you don't.
Then correctness is balance between people and things. Like if you're going
into outer space, you have to have balance. If the "O" ring is
not where it should be, you don't have balance. And when something is not
in balance you're going to have a big error. I don't know anything about
science except what I saw on television, and thats why I'm making these
references. I saw a space ship blow up, presumably, with a lot of people
in it. And they said something about an "O" ring was not in place,
it was not in balance with the rest of the operation. So there was an explosion.
Some people got killed. So correctness is that when you have Justice, which
means balance between people, you also balance the elements, the interactions
between people. Racism has done more to promote non-justice than any other
socio-material system known to be produced or supported by the people of
the known universe. That statement is either true or false. No major problem
that exists between people of the known universe can be eliminated until
racism is eliminated. I don't care what kind of problems. Communism, socialism,
problems you have with trying to figure out what to do about the economy.
Politicians can run around and talk about this and talk about that, and
recently, a lot of politicians are talking a lot about "welfare",
code names for "black people". Thats all it is. They have all
kinds of code names to keep from saying black people. Go ahead and say black
people! Stop tipping around. People are doing this in politics, they're
doing it on the job, they're doing it in the churches. In other words they're
being deceitful. And thats the backbone of racism, DECEIT. When the racists
can't deceive you, they'll get violent. Deception is a form of indirect
violence. But like the red people said, when they can no longer speak with
the forked tongue, they'll come at you directly with the gun, they'll kill
you. Cause this is a business. They most successful business on earth. A
long running show, but, it should have expired. Its been running too long
and its hurt too many people. From the streets of Washington with the nine
millimeters and the tangled minds and the savage behavior of black people,
that has resulted from the school drop out rate ecetera... the confusion...to
Rwanda. Where you have mass killing, all triggered by a system that you
call racism. Every bit of it. The fear, frustration, malice and confusion
thats caused by racism, retards or prevents all constructive activity between
all people of the known universe. You can think over these things as I put
them on here. The first thing you want to know is, are they true? The only
form of "functional" racism that exists among the people of the
known universe is White Supremacy. What about black supremacy? Do they exist?
I never met one. Say, well, I've met some. You might say that. I talked
to a person who said he hated white people,... so what? Thats talk. Can
you express it where its functional, where you are in charge? Where what
you say goes and nobody but god can second guess you? No. So its no such
thing as black supremacy, anywhere on this planet. you just have a few black
people who might run around talking that stuff, they don't talk it too loud
either. Thats all pretense. The White Supremacist don't even have to say
it. Its an on running business. Its already in place. White people are born
into a system, thats already set up. Whether they take advantage of it or
not is their choice. Most of them, or substantial numbers of them do. Cause
its a paying business. Its nice to be able to go to the head of the line,
by birth. Its nice to considered beautiful, by birth. I saw some black ladies
once who were making fun of a white lady who was standing by an elevator
because of the tattered clothes she was wearing. The white woman overheard
the black ladies talking, and just as the elevator got there, she stepped
on and turned around and she said, yes, but, I'm white. And the doors closed.
Nuff said, end of story, you get the point, and don't you forget it. That's
what she was saying, oh yes. It makes a difference. Now some white people
will say no it doesn't make a difference. Try being black. You'll see some
instant differences. I think a person came here and talked at the space
center, his name was Mr. (Joshua) Solomon, who had done something to his
skin and gone down in southern Virginia I believe, around Richmond. He said
he immediately started noticing the way people acted was astonishingly different.
So much so that he couldn't stand over a week of it. He was planning on
doing it for a longer period. He said one week was enough. He came here
at the space center and made a talk. Is this correct? Some of you may have
heard about it. See, but, you'll have some white people who say oh no, you
know, color doesn't make any difference. There are some problems, but, no
big deal. Just try being black. You'll find out its an astonishing deal.
The people who have the ability to eliminate racism do not have the will
to do so, and the people who have the will to do so do not have the ability.
I have the will. Naturally, cause I'm a victim. Old back of the bus negro,
thirty years before they told me I could sit on the front. So you might
say well, a lot of you might not be as old as me, so you could say that
one reason I talk like this is I've got a real bone to pick and you're correct.
Fighting on the front line went to Korea, came back, immediately was told,
get on the back of the bus, uniform and all. Going to see my mother while
she was dying of cancer. Standing up in the middle of the night. You might
say, well, those were the old days...they're not THAT old. Still happening
in different forms. More refined now. Most vicious system on earth, cause
it cuts people apart from the inside...along with the outside. Regardless
of all that has been said or done, the quality of the relationship between
white people and non-white people is and has been a total disaster. Up to
this point, thats what you can call it. Oh its getting better...getting
better won't cut it. Either / or. Either you have justice or you don't.
Either you're mistreating people or you're not. No such thing as a little
bit of mistreatment. And anytime you look at a persons color and say that
I'm gonna make a judgment from that point on thats not in favor of that
person, the disaster is already in place. They'll say, well you're talking
about slavery, the old days. No, can't even have church without black people
and white people can't even sit in the same room. And thats supposed to
be religion. Thats divided along color lines. Martin Luther King said, the
most segregated hour, ever, is eleven o'clock on Sunday. When everybody
is supposed to be so holy, so close to each other. Thats when they're most
separate. The houses of prostitution are more integrated on Sunday morning
than any church. Oh yeah, you got you're Hugh Grant. Fine clean cut. Epitome...movie
star, prowling the streets. Think about it, think I'm making this stuff
up? When I'm talking about racism, I'm talking about racism. Been on that
road a long time. I know it well. Its a total disaster. Thats how you refer
to it. Anybody asks you "whats the status of black/white relations",
...its a total disaster, thats what it is. Oh no, its not that bad. Its
a total disaster...read my lips. Now, saying that its better than it was
a thousand years ago, thats no good...that is not scientific. Thats not
the way to look at anything. If we looked at everything that way we could
say that there should be horses and buggies out there on the parking lot
rather than gas driven vehicles, and everybody should have come here this
morning by 40 miles of bad road...after hitching up a mule. And not going
to a coke machine, but, having to get out a wood stove. If we're going to
look at everything that way. Sure things are better, but, compared to what?
You always compare it to what it ought to be. I think, who was it, Robert
Kennedy who said that. Thats you're measure, you always measure against
things the way they ought to be. Not things the way they were fifteen minutes
ago. Always, without fail. And in a scientific establishment like this,
that definitely has to be the thinking. I had an old sergeant once and I
told him how hard I was working. He never looked up from his typewriter.
he said, Fuller, don't you ever come in here talking about how hard you've
been working, just show me the results. Thats all I want to see. Hard work
is nothing unique. So when it come to the race issue that should be the
basic position of everybody on this planet. Don't tell me how hard you've
been working, show me the results, don't tell me you're working on it, show
me the result. I'll be back later. This is not a football game, you don't
get paid for yardage. (pointing to phrase "Does White Supremacy Exist"
on viewgraph) That's one of the main things you want to know, does it exist.
No point in even having that discussion, no point in my even being here
if the answer to that, is not yes. And it exists in all areas of activity
24 hours a day. And that IS the problem. There isn't any other problem.
All other problems come from that problem. This is what the gentleman who
was at H.E.W. meant when he said I was just trying to get the people some
education, some housing, all of the nice things. But I couldn't do anything
cause somebody would come into the office and say, yeah, but we're going
to have make some type of arrangements an account of, what are you gonna
do with the black people? What are you going to do with the black people?
All over the world the question comes out. If you're gonna build a house,
if you're gonna get married, first thing you have to think about is color.
That the first thing you have to think about... what color is the person;
otherwise you're whole operation is in danger...if you don't get that straight
first. Thats what this means (white supremacy). Those two words. I say sure
it exists, it not only exists it dominates everything that happens. Every
move that everybody makes on this planet 24 hours a day. That includes non-white
people who've never even seen a white person. And white people who have
never seen a black person. It includes them too. Its a total operation.
But everything that I say, must be, should be questioned. If you disagree
with it, do so without fail. You shouldn't have anybody coming out here
taking up your time lying to you. I've already been accused of lying once
this week. Supposed to be going to a school and the white person in that
school notified the faculty last night...I don't want that racist in here.
I'm called a racist now - I said I'm a victim, I've never been a racist.
Its a false charge as far as I'm concerned, but, I was charged with it.
And he said, and I don't want him coming in here lying to these students.
I'd like to talk to that gentleman... in open court so that he can substantiate
his charges...cause I think I can handle it. Replace white supremacy with
justice, okay that goes without saying, takes care of itself. If its something
that should be replaced, you replace it with justice. What makes racism
so important a problem? I think I just covered that, it dominates everything,
you can't get anything done. Definition, (of racism) mistreatment of people
on the basis of color thats all. But I said its white supremacy, racism
is white supremacy, white supremacy is racism. The four stages, establishment,
when was it established? I don't know, I wasn't here. I like to keep everything
close to the vest. Now its a lot of debate, some people say its far back
as 6,000 years ago. Some people say 400 years. I say I don't know, like
Mark Twain was once asked, somebody raise some question about something
and he said, " was proud to be able to answer promptly, and I did...I
said I didn't know". But a lot of people nowadays will say I don't
know, but...and then talk for two hours about about what they don't know.
I don't know when it was established. Maintenance...once it was established
it kept going, now I know its been going on otherwise I wouldn't have been
on the back of that bus. Also, when I go somewhere, they have a little check
mark there that says "race". I never joined a race. But I have
to put something there. Don't you sometimes, some of you, feel nervous or
feel a little out of place when...you're ..you're intimidated by that. Somebody
tell you that you've got to fit in some category... I'm a member of some
race. How did you get to be a member? Wheres your card? When did you take
out membership? You don't know. Somebody told you this. And who was it did
the telling... white supremacist. They thought of the gem of an idea. That
everybody has to be in a nice neat little category, as far as color is concerned.
Sometimes instead of race, they'll put color in that little blank. When
a person looks at their actual color, what do you really put down? It might
be, light tan, black, black-black, dark brown... I saw an article in the
Washington Post where some white person is tired of the confusion and they
say instead of white people being called white, lets call them pink. It
was in the Washington Post the other day, you may have seen it. I mean its
getting crazier and crazier. And you have black people running around talking
about "I'm Bi-Racial", my mother is white and my father is black,
so I want a special category.......FOR WHAT? (laughter) The racists produce
this confusion, and they're feeding it right now. You'll even have silly
talk like a white person saying I'm part Indian. How can you be white and
non-white at the same time...but, they can get away with it. I can't stand
up here and say I'm part anything. Neeeeeegar is what you are....A to Z.
I'm making it kinda comical, but, this stuff hurts. Its caused all kinds
of problems. Its total poison. But, like I said, it gets things done. Now
white supremacy is efficient, its the most efficient system ever thought
up for handling people. Better than any so-called communism, socialism,
capitalism...white supremacy is the one thing that has stayed intact. Whoever
thought of it... cause everything stays in place. You just look at people
according to color. Say, you over here, you over there, you do this,...
you do that, you stop doing this and come over here and do this. When you
can do it according to color it just like stop lights...red, green, according
to color. Its very efficient. But when you're dealing with people on that
basis, you hurt a lot of people. Got to put it out of business. Expansion
means you take in more and more people over time. There are more people
on earth now presumably than there were say ten thousand years ago. So as
the people come from the womb you just simply say, o.k. you're black, go
over here and you do this, you're white you go over here and you do that.
See. So its expanding all the time, the system keeps expanding, taking in
more people. Refinement is "don't call that black person a nigger any
more!" Don't use the "n" word as F. Lee Bailey would say.
Don't call them that. Call him Mr. Jones, Mrs. Brown, invite them over for
tea, pat them on the back and say that if all were like you, the world would
be a better place. Thats the technique of refinement. Now the white people
who are not getting into the refinement thing now are being, really harassed
and watched by the white people who are in refinement. Cause they're telling
them, "We don't do it the old way any more, too many of them, can't
bang them on the head, I mean you know, run them out in the fields, cause
then you have to watch them and its too many of them to watch". "So
you have to lie to them, on the job, everywhere else, lie to them. Promise
them anything, give them nothing". Thats the refinement stage. Does
this sound like an indictment of all white people? Well it isn't, but it
is an indictment of those who believe in white supremacy. How do you answer
the question, "are all white people racist?" Stick with it, "I
don't know, but those who are, are smarter and more powerful than those
who aren't. Why....going on evidence. If the white people who didn't believe
in racism were smarter and more powerful, there wouldn't be no such thing
as racism. Thats just what you call, just, space center, mathematical computation.
Wouldn't be any such thing as racism if that was true. It would go out of
business. Fall apart. Cause its something that you have to watch very carefully.
Like a smooth running machine, you have to make sure that its constantly
oiled, you can't walk off, you have to attend it. Give it lots of attention.
Lets see now, where was I? I want to run though this right quick, don't
want to take up too much time. Nine areas of people activity. Everybody
on earth, every minute of every day is engaging in one of these, one or
more of these major areas of activity. I categorized these myself. Economics,
Education, Entertainment, Labor, Law, Politics, Religion, Sex and War. Every
minute of every day you are engaging in one or more of those areas of activity.
Like right now we're supposed to be engaged in what? Number two, education,
if you can call it that. We're also engaging in politics, politics is nothing
but people relations. If you are talking to someone, you are political right
there. Cause you are exerting some type of influence. You might even throw
in all of the areas, uh, for the most part. Religion, Labor, you're at work,
so what we're talking about is Labor problems. Whatever goes on in the great
out there will effect what you do in here. And what you do in here will
effect what goes on out there. Which brings me to another point, people
say, fine, get rid of him, get him out of here! Don't you know when you
fire people you're doing nothing but producing your...a person who's maybe
going to produce a person who's gonna kill you! In a round about way. But
there is no such thing as a surplus population. Adolf Hitler understood
that, and he didn't fool around with it either. In other words, you don't
just put people out there and just forget them. The person that I fire...
means that person no longer has a job. I'm gonna take care of that person,
one way or the other. I'm gonna either have to take care of that person
and there offspring or I'm going to have to kill them. Hitler said, kill
them. I don't want any surplus people. I don't want any people milling around
here getting in my way...with the new order that I'm bring in. With the
new order that I'm bringing in we're going to have some surplus people,
what do you do, you put them on trains. Get rid of them. But in this area
of the world, people haven't caught up to that yet, they might. And I think
theres a lot of talk going in that direction too. Things like the Oklahoma
city bombing may be connected with it...that kinda thinking. Hey, we do
have a lot of black, brown and red people who are in the way. We don't have
any jobs for them, we don't want to give them jobs...at the same time we
don't want them to be on welfare. Where are they going to be? They're going
to be milling the streets. At least their offspring are going to milling
the streets with nine millimeter pistols in their pockets and you're not
gonna figure out how it all happened when you feel that cold steel behind
you're ear on the parking lot. See this is very real. And you say who was
it? It was that black fella you see running down the alley. He wasn't born
with that gun in his hand, it was a progress of things that happened a whole
series of things that happened. Father lost his job, mother got on crack
cocaine, he's in the street. They're out there ladies and gentlemen, by
the thousands, and growing in number. And now when you have you're nice
little suburban house set up here they come, again...in large numbers. Talking
about the nine areas of activity, they're all interrelated. This is getting
to be a smaller and smaller planet. People are going to have to like Rodney
King says..." get along". Now he might be delirious, he's definitely
a victim of it, you can tell by the way he acts and his record. The things
that he's done. But they weren't chasing him down that highway in a vacuum.
Thats a culmination of a whole bunch of things. But, even Rodney King could
make sense for a few minutes. Even after being hit on the head. I mean,
this whole world's going crazy and I'm crazy along with it. But I mean,
can't we get along? Somebody figure out something, some of you smart people
figure out something. But the smart people are all wrapped up in THINGS.
And just letting this race thing stay in place. Now you might say what has
this got to do with Goddard Space Center or any other center. Anywhere on
this planet where there are people the priority should be we got to do something
about the race problem and we want the smartest people on the case. We shouldn't
leave it to amateurs like Neely Fuller...cause thats what you're doing.
If anybody doesn't like what I'm saying, hey, what are you doing? What have
you done lately? You're smarter than I am, you've been to more schools than
I have, if you're white, most likely..but..you left it to an amateur. And
when you leave big important issues to amateurs you gonna get a amateurish
result. Cause I'm not what you call a "heavy thinker". I don't
know how the system of racism is put together. So when I start trying to
take it apart I might snatch the bricks in the wrong places. And if you
know anything about the way a building comes down, ...a building is supposed
to come down scientifically. The way it goes up. You let an amateur come
into an area and say he's on the destruction committee, and he's going to
bring a building down, XXXX you'll have bricks all over the street. Falling
on peoples car and all like that. But this is the type of contractors that
you've got to do it. The average white person will say "Well, I don't
have anything to do with racism ... I'm just going about my own business,
in my own way". Yea, that's exactly what people said, I mean it started
World War II. Roosevelt had to scream to the top of his voice to say wait
a minute, all of this stuff is going to wind up on your door step. But you
don't have to wait for a World War II, like I said that explosion behind
your ear from a nine millimeter, when somebody's car jacking you. Susan
Smith understood that, that's why she could say that it was a black fella
that did it. Cause when you say a street criminal, that means black. But
how were they produced, they weren't born like this, I know that. There's
this little toddler, looking innocently ... up at the older people for guidance.
The black people don't know to much because they are not taught too much
themselves. And the white people look at the situation and walk away. And
think that, that situation is not gonna catch up with them. You produce
a frankenstein monster that monster gonna catch up you. And that's what
the system of white supremacy does, it makes monsters out of people. They
stand back and laugh at the monsters at a distance, not knowing that the
monster gonna catch up with them when their sleeping. Crawl through your
bedroom at night when you don't have your gun handy. Now you can produce
justice or you can start backing up the train. And build death camps. Those
are your choices, not any other. Sick of it already. Well ... xxxxx Tragic
relationships between white people and non-white people. Black people and
white people interact with each other everywhere, it's been my observation.
And here again you have to question everything I'm saying cause I may be
lying like the man said. Tacky, it doesn't get any better than that. I said
this everywhere I go. See a white person talking to a black person, just
listening to the conversation, the conversation is tacky. It doesn't get
any better than that. There a nervousness there, there's a barrier there.
Even when it's not mentioned. If they try to improve on XXXX tacking it,
like they say, look, lets not be so stiff ... black people and white people
should get together, I mean, lets have a party. Now it's going to get trashy.
It's gonna go from tacky to trashy. That's why I told people ... stop all
the Christmas parties, lets get this race thing straight. In the office
place, XXX what because the black people are expected to be the entertainment
committee. You see that black person coming, here comes the entertainment
committee. Just one person that's the committee. Cause he's black or she's
black and so they become song and dance people. And when the whiskey passed
around the next thing you know the white men, the good ole boy, are feeling
all over the black lady and that's supposed to be fun. Then send them back
to the ghettoes, they all go different ways from the parking lot at the
end of the day after having all that so called fun. That's disgraceful.
It needs to be stooped. And it needs to be stopped immediately. We've got
to be honest, what I'm about, I hope, is telling it just like it is ...
warts and all. Tell the truth on myself and then duck when the bricks start
flying. Cause that's the only way to solve anything. You gonna be scientific,
look at it just the way that it is. Cut out the nonsense. Trashy. Now, from
trashy it becomes XXXX terroristic. O.J. Simpson case, biggest case in history,
so somebody said. Greatest murder case in history, I don't know what happened
to Adolf Hitler. Yea, OJ, you know. My goodness, there's some cases going
on right now in Washington, DC. It should make history. But who cares, they
don't even spell your name right, fifteen people dead in one house. And
even the dead, they don't spell their names right. But OJ Simpson connected
with the white woman, connected with a murder, ... Oh, boy. Everybody drop
what you're doing and pay attention, glued to the television set. Forget
about Lindburgh, this is it. King Kong... that's what it's all about there's
a sexually connotation there, when you start talking about black males,
white females, you talking about a recipe for dynamite. Particularly when
somebody comes up dead, always has been. It's the bug-a-boo, it goes with
the system of white supremacy. Tacky, going back to it, very important,
what we need ... and this is a word that you hear, here at the space center
I've heard, quality. Total Quality Management, you hear quality, that's
what you want instead of that. You want a quality relationship. For I mean
that about the Christmas parties and all the other parties that you have,
if it's not quality, if it's got to be tacky or trashy - don't have' em.
Have meetings, you can have a meeting, you can solve problems, you can interact
with people on a constructive basis. But the black people in the northwestern
hemisphere and in other places, and this is a valid criticism, out of habit
... this watermelon day on the plantation has got to stop. Set a side one
or two days, you've got a month now, called Black History Month. Where suppose
to be right in the middle of it. This is also the month that George Washington
was born, what about them apples. And old George was a slave owner, right
in the middle of Black History Month. I mean this is all just saying with
words, Black History Month, what is that. People ask me what is my history,
my history is everything that ever happened before the beginning of time
and since. That's my history. Speaking scientifically, that has to be my
history, every rock that ever turned over on the moon, is a part of my history
because the elements that go into that rock are part of me and I'm a part
of it. Now one might say ... that's true of anybody, so what, you asked
me a question. What's my history that's it, A to Z. It's not in some box,
I told you about those boxes, watch those boxes that they put you in. Put
you in one box, February, that's black people say on the plantation. That's
their black month after then you don't have no month. Tacky. I mentioned
this a few moments ago, deceit and violence, that's racist strategy. If
they can't deceive they'll hurt you physically. Every white person is taught
how to be deceitful whether they are or not. This is why even in the white
supremacist culture, the word mystery, is a very prominent word. This is
why into a book store, along with the books way back in the back, on how
to plant crops, how to fix the garage, how to paint, how to repair an automobile,
most of the books you see right up front are mysteries books, "Who
Done It" that are associated with violence. Associated with killing.
The stuff that is taught in school is associated with killing not making
something grow. But killing, this is a club, if you're going to have a system
of white supremacy, you've go to do a lot of killing. And got to know how
to do it, in fact, you have to brag about it. That's why the heroes, in
the white supremacist culture, are mostly soldiers, knights. Open the first
grade book and you see a person with a sword. Go in any public square and
there's a person on horse back with a sword. And then later with a gun or
muskets. All about death. Worshipping death. That's the violent part, direct
violence. Indirect violence is deception. If I am telling you a lie, to
your detriment, I committing violence against you. When I go up for the
promotion on the job and you say, any day now, we're working on it, and
you know that's not true. You have committed an act of violence cause you're
being deceitful. Come in I want to help you. You're not really trying to
help, you don't intend to help, that's being deceptive. Deceit is a private
entire culture because see, the, like the red people said, speak with forked
tongue. And now you can't buy a car without going through a whole lot of
hassle. It's built into the culture, it's just taken for granted that you're
going to get a lie. It's a requirement, you should be able to buy a car
with no hassle, no nothing, I mean right down to the last penny, everything
is computerized, this is the information highway age, there shouldn't be
any debates about what that car costs. But a house or a car, two of the
most important things that you need , it's got to be lies attached to it.
What because in the white supremacist system, you have to keep in the practice
of telling lies. I almost about to finish. Some of you might say I shouldn't
have started. I can understand that. I don't like doing what I'm doing.
I wish someone else would do this mess. Someone has got to be the garbage
man, I guess I'm it. These are just some words, actually you've got a lot
of them. Lilly white, crime: that mean black people, see they've got all
kinds of code words now. That's part of the refinement of racism. Bright
students, how do you know if a student is bright? People call the word bright
is associated with the word, white. So right from the first grade, a black
student begins to loose self esteem. I often say that when you have black
person and a white person, sitting in the same class, in the north western
hemisphere, getting what you call an education, the white person is being
systematically taught how to be a white supremacist. The black person is
being systematically taught how to be a victim. And this is why about time
the average black male gets to about the fifth or six grade, he begins to
back away. He begins to walk the halls and make trouble. He begins to sass
the teacher and nobody understands that. It's because it's all built right
into the books. All of the damages being done, pure poison. Like beautiful
people, can be black and be beautiful, not unless you look like you're white.
Every black person in here, who's about my age, knows something about straightening
combs and all that. Skin bleached, even in black magazines, the poison is
deep. It is deep, it is deep. It's horrifyingly deep, and it damages people's
physic because the whole thing is ... if you look white, if you're going
to be beautiful, the first requirement is that you're white. Beauty and
the Beast, King Kong and Faye Ray. Netherlands. Middle class non-white people.
Middle class black people, you hear that phrase, what is upper class? No
such thing, you've got three classes of people on this planet. Powerful
and powerless, if you are non-white, you are in the powerless class. Successful
black person. Somebody would say, well Colin Powell is successful. No way
can you have a system of white supremacy and have a successful black person,
it's impossible. Forget that. A successful black person by definition is
the black person who is not subject to the system of white supremacy. Unquote.
Lexus won't get it. Eight bedroom house won't cut it. Nice to have, get
it if you can, that don't get you any status at all. Ask some of the basketball
players, who are running around talking about their trying to do something
about the race problem. Football players, movie stars, OJ had a big house.
Person who have half his is totally confused being in the kind of mess he's
in. Totally confused. The system of racism produces confusion in the minds
of it's victims. Everybody knows, if you're black male, you're not a success
until you get a white woman. Isn't that correct. You better believe it's
correct. People don't go around talking about it but it's suppose to be
understood. It was practiced on black women, or warm your self up to get
a white one. Because that was the beautiful people. Such a non-white people
do, end racism. Stop snitching, that doesn't mean don't protect yourself.
But it means just running down the hall trying to tell the boss, and you
know who that is. Something so you can make yourself look good. At somebody
else's expense. Code of justice, say stop that cause that's not just. Stop
name calling, this refers basically to black people in the northwestern
hemisphere, most of these, all of these. Do a lot of name calling, particularly
black males. Stop that, don't call anybody any name except for that name
that person wants to be called. That's just pure decency. Don't name call
anyone. Suppose a person calls you a name, don't you even bat an eye. Get
out of the habit of being so childish. And you don't pass that on to the
offspring, who are now running around talking about somebody that's dis'en
them. Nobody can diss you. Talk about disrespect, that's short for disrespect.
The respect has one source ... self. You give it to yourself, you can not
get it from someone else. Anybody that can give you respect can take it
away from you. They'll have you hopping around like a little monkey. They'll
say, Oh I'm going to take his respect away from him today and make him feel
bad. If you have it yourself, people know it too. Couldn't have but one
source and that's you. Don't ask anybody to respect you, ever. If you all
ready have it, and you should, you don't have ask. Stop name calling, stop
cursing, even if you have been in the Army. I have. Cut down on that profanity.
XXX Agree with some of the politicians now. Cause now even some of the white
people are getting sick of some of them because it's getting to the children.
And the children are beginning to use these kind of words to them. GD this
or F that. Is that the way to talk? You can do better than that. Stop gossiping.
That's a hard one. Which means don't say anything about anybody that you
wouldn't say to the person if the person was standing there. That's how
you know when you're gossiping. You say anything about anybody, stifling,
stop and ask yourself ... If, would I say this if the person I'm saying
this about was standing right here. And if the answer if no, then don't
say it. Now I'm not talking about getting some descriptive information.
I'm talking about gossiping. There's a difference. Stop being discourteous,
on the job, anyplace else. Stop fighting, stop stealing. In fact someone
once said, I'm going to mention about stealing, ... I was working once for
someone and there was a retarded person, somebody they called retarded,
working there. And I was very young, and so I asked the person ... I said
why do you keep him around here. That's the person that everybody laughed
at. He was illiterate, what most people would call backward, toothless,
and the answer was ... he always comes to work, he's always on time, and
doesn't steal nothing. XXXX And I've never forgot that because I carry that
through doing minds for me, I was never late. It's just something I decided
not to do, be late. I was never late on the job in thirty years. Now you
might say, well boy I sure was a faithful old XXXX docket. No, it was a
duty I had to myself. I contracted to come to work, so I'm gonna be at work,
O.K.. And there was just a thing, that I had, get up early enough to be
there, all right. And I didn't steal. It stuck with me because the person
that told me that little story told me when I was young. You see, some things
stick with you like a rock when you're young, O.K.. Stop robbing, stop killing,
stop squabbling and expecting racists to settle a squabble. And that's black
people. XXXX Saw a big argument down in the section and then run down the
hall to tell the white person who's there, and the white person is busy
and doesn't want to be bothered with that nonsense but they take their time,
just straightening the children out. And sometimes after that XXXX bump
both their heads together. And put them in the streets. And I know some
of the things I've said, some of the things that I'm saying, would be embarrassing
but you can't have this business unless you tell the truth. You can't straighten
out none of this. And black people use an old time plantation formula when
they have a little excuse to run up to the big house. And then both of them
get a good whipping. Straighten it out yourself, learn to be mature and
if you can't get along, which most of the times you can't, minimize promptly
by minimizing contact. You say well look, it seems like we can't come to
any kind of reasoning, so the least you say to me, the better ... and the
least I say to you, the better, and just do it that way. Don't take up the
boss' time with those little petty squabbles, that's why black people are
usually referred to as being children but it's not a put down, even when
it's accurate. Because we've been made child like, I'm 66 years old and
I'm still a child. Cause I don't know the things that I ought to know and
I'm not in the position I outta be in. Never been a man. That's why among
black people themselves, they say here comes the man. Everybody knows what
that means. What white people can do to stop racism. Since I said racism
is based on deceit, never lie to a non-white person. Just stop that lying.
Stop lying, stop making promises you're not gonna keep. The red people where
some of the first people in the northwestern hemisphere to know what it
said. They said Urmm say one thing, mean another. Can't trust them five
minutes. Break every treaty that they ever made. Terrible people. Have to
watch all times. White people should try to get that stigma off of them.
Say I'm not gonna lie to these people, ya know. Its not gonna help them.
It's not gonna help me. It hurts me to have to. Just get in the process
of not doing it. And never withhold valuable information from a non-white
person. They're the people who need help the most, that's if you're going
to produce justice, if it's valuable information, if it's constructive information,
go to the person. Be proactive, just don't sit back, since they need information,
somebody said information is power. You have to have correct information
if you're going to get anything done in a sensible, just, and correct way.
Now I'm just about finished. In fact, with this last one, I am finished
and you can look at this and if anybody got any questions, you can ask them
now, anybody got any criticisms, you can voice them and don't bite your
tongue. Because like I said, I've already been called a liar and a racist
in the last 24 hours. So I can handle that I think. I said racism equals
white supremacy, that just a review. That's what it is. How many races are
on earth? One, the white race. Sometimes people say "human race",
you don't have any human beings yet. Not only that, why would you want a
human race. Racism isn't human, it isn't humane, who ever thought of the
idea should be given an excellent whipping. You should be talking about
maybe horses or something like that, but people? It's caused all kinds of
problems, just that category alone, saying, what race do you belong to.
Now you're getting ready to start some trouble. You can not say that, being
a member of a race does anything but start trouble. The minute you say I
am a race member, you mean you're a trouble maker. You're gonna hurt somebody,
you can't site any other reason for it's existence. And the only, one that
you have now, is the white race. This is why people who are call Asians
sometimes get a little perplexed and they are somewhat insulted when you
call them yellow people. And say that they are members of a yellow race.
They say I'm not yellow, they haven't thought of it, but somebody called
them that. And the somebody was the white supremacist. No body does that
but them. Running around all over the world slapping tags on people. You're
the Melanesian race for the next 20 years and then you'll be something else.
Depending on what I want to call you. Stop that! Stop it! Analogy of the
condition of black people, born in jail...thats correct. We went through
the four stages of white supremacy, we talked about deception and violence.
Words. Oh yes, Blacks and Jews. Never use that term! Its gotten a lot of
black people in a lot of trouble. Just using that term. Look at the three
words and ask yourself how much sense does that make. Its impossible to
have an intelligent conversation using those three words in that combination.
Totally impossible. You find Ph.D. people using the term. And I'm a long
ways from having anything like that...and I've been in total consternation
of that. And you should be too... Anybody got a question on it? Why is in
that wouldn't make sense? Yes sir? Unintelligible voice of questioner.
Fuller: I can hear him from here and I'll reiterate what he said, cause
it'll take up too much time maybe.
Q: Unintelligible
Fuller: You can say black people and white people. Or you can say Jews and
Christians. Or Muslims and Jews. Or Christians and Hindus...but, blacks
and Jews! What are you talking about? Black is a color! What color is Jew?
I'm dropping bombs now. But see if you're looking for the truth, you get
the words straight, thats why I have in up there. See words. Words are the
chief tools of the racists. When they put words together they have something
in mind. And what they're having in mind is confusion. And thats what you
get when you use that particular term. I stick by it...I haven't had any
rebuttals either...anywhere I've gone. Everybody just gone silent. Like
they do with most of the things that I say. That bothers me too. But, that
was the one that wasn't on the other list, thats why I picked that one out.
Does it make sense? Can't you say Jews and Christians? These are religions.
You're mixing color with a religion and you're implying that a black person
can't be a Jew. Okay, look at it this way...Christians and Blacks. Where
does that leave Martin Luther King? He's black and he said he was a Christian.
But, if you say Christians and Blacks, you're implying that a Christian
can't be black. Maybe they can I don't know, but at least approach it from
that way. So when you say blacks and Jews its the same thing, doesn't make
sense...but you have book titles like that and seminars. Causes all kinds
of problems. Sets off false waves. The strongest religion in the world is
white supremacy. You say, white supremacy isn't a religion... it isn't?
You say well a religion has a god. Who is the god of the white supremacist?
The white supremacists themselves...and that causes all kinds of problems.
They're getting to the place where now they want to replace god and will
not accept the image of a god unless it looks exactly like them. Talking
about white people now who believe in white supremacy. Thats why I said
while ago they won't even want to go to a church and they look in there,
unless they're just visiting, they're not going to join. They see a black
preacher up there and a black congregation...they'd say, thats an inferior
religion even though its the same bible, the same Christianity. They don't
want to have anything to do with those people in there. They're alien. Even
though they're supposed to be Christians. A Christian can go anywhere where
there are Christians I thought. But COLOR is the number one criteria for
everything. Christianity, Judaism, Hinduism, Islam all comes in second best.
Got to figure out what COLOR the person is first. Thats why the strongest
religion in the world is white supremacy. Is there a black community? Absolutely
not! Black community? Where is it? Black people don't communicate. They
claw and scratch at each other, around the clock. You have a white community
and it's called white supremacy. How can you have a black community in the
system of white supremacy. What you've got is a bunch of black prisoners.
A prison isn't a community. What is culture? Culture is "what you do".
Now this is black history month so you have a whole lot of black people
saying...you see them on television sometimes...saying, white people have
to learn our culture...FOR WHAT? Culture is what you do, what are you talking
about? A drive by shooting? (Laughter) That isn't worth two cents. I wouldn't
give thirty cents for what we call black people's culture...cause black
people never pinpoint what they're talking about. They just say "our
culture"...and that white people can't get along with us because they
don't understand our culture. Who would want to? When you look at what black
people DO. We have a victim culture. When I say we, I mean if you are black
in this universe you have the culture of a victim. A prison culture. Who
wants to a prisoner? Who wants to be the last is everything? Black people
sometimes, when people come from overseas, and they say that "they
don't like us"...why should they? Look at what we are doing. Its no
reason why anybody would like black people in the state that we are in...but
we've been put in that state. Its no reason for me to like myself. None,
if I'm being logical. I can like myself when I am no longer a victim of
a system that dictates that I not like myself. I'm just about finished now
because I think thats it. I think I've covered the rest of it. Oh yes, the
system of white supremacy produces monsters and monstrosities. I'm a monstrosity.
Fuller: Yes sir?
Q: My question to you is, how can black entertainment television be responsible
for the imaging that they portray on black people? Because thats a black
controlled situation...even though in entertainment theres a hierarchy that
dictates what images they're going to put on the screen and so forth. So
if the young kids are going to school, coming home and seeing those images
of youth doing the "coochy" and whatever else and seeing the "butterfly"
portrayed on television, where are we at?
Fuller: Theres nothing can be done about it except the people who are running
or participating in that and hopefully what you call black entertainment
or black politics or black whatever, while you function on this planet is
try to improve people as best you can. Now, this is difficult to do with
the opposition that you have...because the white supremacists say that if
you are black, you're supposed to be some type of whore, or a clown or something
that somebody can make fun of. You're certainly not something walking around
on this earth that anybody with any sense should take seriously. So when
the white supremacists are in charge and you go to them and say I want to
have a television station or a radio program or something like that...they
say... how much non-sense can you come up with. Can I get you on the morning
talkshows and make fun of you? Because if I can't do that, NO GO. But you
keep pleading with them. This is what seminars like this is for. So both
black people and white people hopefully can learn how to get beyond the
tacky, trashy, terroristic interactions that we have on this planet right
now. And have a total quality relationship. Did that answer your question...yeah
see...you just do the best you can. Yes sir.
Q: I have a question. Most of the agencies and most of the division within
the agencies have multi-cultural committees. Have cultural diversity committees.
Have put in place ostensibly organizations or formats for addressing some
of these question I assume, at least that the theoretical purpose behind
them. Could you readdress the question of "what is culture" and
the reason I'm asking that specifically is because that was one of the first
questions that came up in the...well I work in code 700, so that was one
of the first questions that came up in the code 700 cultural diversity meeting,
the first one we had. So could you address the multi-cultural issue, the
cultural diversity issue, and the format that...
Fuller: Okay, culture...you see, you have to put definitions on things.
And this is very important, anytime somebody throws a word at you "diversity"...the
first thing you do is jump back, don't grab the word, let the word hit the
floor and then point to the word while its on the floor and say "What
is that?" Someone walks in very polished and says what we need here
is more studies in "diversity". First thing that you should say
is, "wait a minute". Before we say anything else. What is this
diversity that you're talking about and what is it supposed to do, cause
if its not about helping we're just having an exercise in some little sand
lot, kindergarten playing. And the racists will do this. They come up with
all kinds of fancy words. Well what we need is some programs in multi-culturalism.
And then you say what is that, that is, if someone thinks to ask what is
it. They'll say, oh well, for the black people we need, uh, lets bring in
some Louis Armstrong records. When what you're talking about is a promotion!
See how they'll jump track on you? I got some records, I don't need them.
We don't have to discuss that. But they say, see the white supremacist culture
teaches them to produce black people who are childlike and keep them that
way. And have them always chasing little toys rather than taking care of
the world's business like they ought to be doing, as mature people. Keep
them childlike. Keep them thinking on a childlike level at all times. So
thats why according to my interpretation they come up with these words that
have no meaning. Like "diversity", "multi-culturalism",
"multi" this and "bi" this and "bi" that.
Bi-racialism. Bi-Sexism. They're throwing that into the mix now. Particularly
where non-white people are concerned. Thats why you see a lot of black males
dressed up in dresses now. And flaunting it on television, everybody thinks
it's cute. More confusion! Anytime you take a male and make a female out
of him...you should run that experiment on everybody that you know including
every member of your family first, and let is run for about a thousand years
and give a good test just like you would a test on a rocketship at Goddard
and if it works out to be the most glorious thing that ever happened then
we'll all jump in and have changes of some type, but, not one second before.
Like I said, when somebody comes and give you something, jump back from
it, and say wait a minute, what is it?...what is this supposed to do?...is
it an improvement?...if its not, what are you doing, running a game?...and
what is the end result or objective of that game? Anybody have a question?
Don't everybody scream at once.
Q: I've heard you say before Mr. Fuller that the white people are the smartest
of all people. Could you elaborate as to how that relates to white supremacy
and then white people who presumably are not white supremacists.
Fuller: Well you probably weren't in here, but, I said the white supremacist
have to be the smartest people in the world because if they weren't then
the white people who didn't believe in racism... you find a lot of white
people who say, I don't believe in racism...I don't believe in mistreating
anybody...I just believe in going to work, and trying to improve myself
and helping people when I can and not trying to hurt anybody. Many millions
of white people will say that. But, they're not the smartest people on this
planet. Because you have a system of white supremacy in place and the people
who believe in white supremacy are smarter than those who don't, otherwise,
like I said before, you would not have any such thing as white supremacy,
it would just die, from lack of support. It would. This is why white people
cannot get themselves off the hook by just saying I just mind my own business.
It doesn't work that way. You have to be proactive. You have to actually,
when you see it, or hear about it, or even think that it might be going
on you're supposed to take an active role in seeing to it that it doesn't
exist. Otherwise you're not doing your job of producing justice, which is
why everybody, what everybody on this planet is supposed to be doing. This
is no beauty contest. The reason for being on this planet, presumably, is
to produce a product called Justice, if Justice hasn't been produced. And
thats why I say that they're the smartest. They're the most powerful. Nobody
has been able to outsmart them yet. Because the system is still in place.
Everybody complains about it, but, nobody does anything about it. Its just
musical chairs, they just keep moving the problem from one place to another,
you might say, and really its all places at all times. Does that answer
you question? More or less, or did it? Anybody else have a question.
Q: Yes, uh, yes uh. One quick question, uh, I work at Goddard, I wanted
to know your feelings as far as we have so many black organizations, why
if NASA is a particular community, why is it that all the different black
organizations with limited participation in amounts of people, do not just
incorporate themselves into one organization?
Fuller: You said why they don't?
Q: Yeah. Or, or do...
Fuller: The people who are members of these organization should explain
that. Now I don't believe in it. I believe in assemblies, just like here.
And I believe that all the black people and all the white people should
be in the same assembly, we're in the same world...we have to deal with
each other. And be up front with every problem that there is. But, black
people usually hide in organizations, in order to get a little self esteem.
Thats not necessary, get your self esteem out here in the big arena.
Q: So you do agree that if all of the organizations pitted together to just
form one...
Fuller: No! If your going to have community, that community should have
one objective, thats to produce products that are not produced. What are
the organizations for? What are the Black organization for? What are the
white organizations for? See we get right back to that church thing. White
church, black church. What are you supposed to be doing? Well, we get together...
Get together and do what? In order to accomplish what?
Q: Thats not my point, my point is, why not have one organization that fulfill
all the different areas...
Fuller: Fine.
Q: And instead of having all these little groups, separate groups...
Fuller: Thats my suggestion...
Q: And waiting for a day like today for some of them to come together, why
not just have one and cover all the different scenarios? Then everybody
could group together, with the small numbers, it'll be a bigger number and
you could cover more issues and topics.
Fuller: I think we're saying the same thing, but, I think you might be missing
it see. The word "organization", throws people. People are People.
Now people have agendas. They either want something or they don't want something
and this is the only reason for joining a so-called organization. But if
you learn of the function, anywhere in the world,... and you're at a space
center!...I mean all of these ideas that we're talking about, they're going
to go into outer space eventually. Sooner or later people are going to be
on the moon, you gonna take all this garbage that we have on with us? We've
gotta get rid of this stuff before we make a move. And way to do that is
for everybody to come together and show warts and all. Everybody can say
whats on their mind and why and what they intend to do and why. Thats black
people and white people. See this thing about black organizations and white
organizations is what we're trying to do away with. Now some people might
say well we're talking about integration... I'm not! I'm talking about Justice!
What you don't have is Justice. So if have an organization thats supposed
to be producing a product, the name of that product is supposed to be Justice.
We got rocketships. What we don't have is anything that makes sense to put
in it to transport someplace else. When we finally get to the planet Krypton
what do you think the Kryptonians are gonna do when they say...look you
people come up here telling us what to do, and you're squabbling all the
way on the trip up here. About who's black and who's white. Get out of here.
All of you! And I wouldn't blame them.
Q: Thank you.
Q: I have a comment. My comment to that gentleman was, I think that... I'm
not from Goddard, I'm a visitor...I think the problem is you said, "little"...
I think it doesn't take a whole lot of people to be effective. I think uh,
there was one Martin Luther King that made it effective. There was one Malcolm
X that made it effective, so it doesn't matter whether there is one or two
people making anything effective. I'm in the entertainment industry and
its based on some of the most cut throat, wheeling and dealing you can ever
imagine and if you don't have a faith in whatever your cause is, or whatever
your belief is, you're not gonna survive in that sort of business. To me
its the same thing here at Goddard, its apparent that there is white supremacy
problems in the world, and black problems and everybody elses problems,
but until everybody gets together and decides that we all have a problem,
theres not going to be a solution.
Fuller: That's what I was saying. Thats what I was saying, you see the whole
world, the whole universe, is becoming an assembly now. Everybody tells
you this. And particularly here at a place like a space center, it should
be obvious. So that means that people are going to be interacting with each
other regardless of whether they want to or not. They're going to be bumping
into each other. I tried to give that illustration just by saying that no
matter...you could be a Harvard graduate, and you could be really on your
way to big time things, and some person who never read a book, but, who
knows how to use a nine millimeter can put you out of business on the parking
lot this evening. And you know that. And thats a reality. So you'd better
start interacting with everybody in such a way that this becomes a better
place so you won't have to look over your shoulder on the parking lot, like
I always do. Oh yeah, I mean this a real world, see, this is no fun. And
we all take this for granted. That this is the kind of world that we're
supposed to live in. Got bars on every window. Your alarm system cost more
than the house and we call ourselves intelligent. Something is seriously
in error. I mean it should be obvious to everybody in here, what I'm trying
to say. I'd like to get somebody else here. Does anybody else have a question?
Q: Unintelligible. Because of trying to stay ahead of the game.
Fuller: Your entitled to that opinion. I wouldn't think that the space shuttle
would be the best example. He made a comment about white people playing
god.
Q: Well, you had made a comment earlier about white supremacy playing god,
I was just making that as an example, of what you were talking about. Because
the weather was bad, and that is a part of nature which is god, and thats
why I made the comment, relating to the statement.
Fuller: Okay, and in line with that, okay taken in that view, but...in line
with that...see the danger there is...there are some people who might not
believe in god. Alright, there are some people called atheists, some of
them might be here in this room. They are entitled to think that or be atheists
if thats that they want to do. But uh, I don't want to get into a religious
thing as such, because you've got different types of religion that say who
god is and what god does, what god wants. I'm saying the white supremacists
show indications of wanting to replace whatever created the universe. And
they show signs of this because they've just about run out of other things
to do. They've got everybody else following them. So, its just a natural
tendency. If I rode into the woods you might say, and there are millions
of people in th woods and I have all of these people over a period of time
looking to me, its very easy for me to start thinking, everything centers
around me. All the planets, everything. Except when something goes awry,
then I'm reminded. But that is a normal tendency of anybody whether they're
black or white. Once you get in charge and it looks like everybody asks
you questions and you don't have to ask anybody anything, then you get what
they call a "godlike complex" and this is when whoever or whatever
created the universe usually kinda snatches you into reality. Sometimes
by using the very people that you're dictating to. Thats why I never,...and
I recommend this for everybody in the room...never look up to anybody. And
never look down on anybody. And never think that just because you're smart
that that gives you the right to mistreat someone. If you're smart, the
only thing that means is you've got more responsibility than anybody else.
Thats all that that means...reason being...using scientific analysis now...that
smartest person in the world will eventually become what? Ignorant again,
all you have to do is keep getting up in the morning and going to bed at
night. Just point to the smartest person, the greatest scientist, on this
installation. I will guarantee you based on evidence, that great scientist
on this installation will eventually be a babbling idiot. All he has to
do, or she, is go to bed at night and get up in the morning, go to be bed
at night and get up in the morning. And if that person does it long enough,
they would be able to find their way to the bathroom. So stop being arrogant.
If you happen to find yourself a genius, you really should cry, because
what that means is you've got to take care of all the people who are dumb.
If you're a correct thinking person. You've got all of their problems, they're
supposed to come to you. Thats in a family or anywhere else. The smartest
person in the family or anywhere else, the smartest person in the family
is supposed to answer all the questions. Naturally, because the person is
smart. Not misuse the family member. Protect the family member, thats why
you were given that knowledge-and its going to be taken away from you too.
Sooner or later, and then the person that you didn't teach is going to have
to take care of you. The last picture I saw of Douglas MacArthur, he was
being led down the hall by a black lady. I don't know where he was going.
Probably to the bathroom, but, he was very elderly. Now this person was
a military genius, feared and revered. They called him the "American
Caesar". People in the Philippines said he was god, in world war two.
But, in the last days, and I'm not making fun, I'm saying its going to happen
to all of us...think about that...he was being led step by feeble step at
Walter Reed Hospital I believe. Had a hat on his head like somebody just
put it up there any ole way. Don't laugh because its going to happen to
everybody in this room if you stay here long enough. So stop being so haughty,
talking down to people, just because you've got a big polished desk. That
doesn't mean anything. Everybody on this earth is very feeble. You were
going to ask a question?
Q: Yeah well, two questions, one that you just kind of brought up to mind
when you said don't look up to people, um, how do you tell a child that
when you have people in the community that they tend to look up to...their
father or their mother or great aunt or whatever. I think that its important
for children to have someone to look up to because it inspires them...
Fuller: Role models...
Q: To greater and greater things, so maybe you can clarify your definition
of how you....
Fuller: I will...
Q: And then secondly, you said something about the community, for me I felt
that I did have a black community, I mean from the African concept that
it takes a whole village to raise a child in my situation I felt that everyone
had a hand in raising me, and to helping me to achieve the successes I've
had, and I feel that I have had successes, but then that goes to your definition
of successful black people.
Fuller: Of community...
Q: So there are three different things here. One, the mentorship kinda thing,
two the black community and then your definition of successfulness. maybe
you can elaborate on that.
Fuller: Okay, the role model in this global village should be a code of
behavior. That won't let you down. Thats why sometimes people when they're
frustrated they go to the Torah, or the Bible or the Quran or the writings
of Confucius. Because they say the people are confused. The people are doing
things they shouldn't do. I can't use people as a role model because people
make mistakes. So what you have as a basic guide is a code of behavior.
Things that you do and things that you don't do. That last all down through
the millennia. Anytime you put your stock in a person, a person will make
mistakes. Not only that the person just might make the mistake of dying
on you, right in the middle of everything. And then you come down to, who
taught the first person what they ought to know. See when you say, passing
on things, you can't use people. Thats why I say, you don't look up to anybody,
you don't look down on anybody. A black lady once told me she thought her
father was everything. He seemed so strong, he seemed to have the answer
to everything. Until one day, when she was a little girl, she went on his
job...and she was the way that the boss, the white boss talked to him. He
talked to him like he was a puppy...and it killed her. She said she never
had confidence in him any more. It broke her. It broke her spirit completely
because she thought that he was invincible, but, there her was shuffling
and bucking and grinning and he had to do that to keep that job. But she
had never seen that, so he was hiding that from her, so...Have you ever
noticed. In fact my offspring, he stands over me. One day he told me...he's
in his thirties now, he said, you know "when did I get so much bigger
than you?" Cause I used to think you were huge. Alright. Now he looks
at me with my little scrawny self and he wonders how he could have ever
looked up at me in the first place. Don't use people as the criteria for
anything. Use doctrine. A code. Your religion and what-not, thats what its
for. Thats what its for, see...thats, thats solid, thats steady. A code
of behavior. Now what was the other thing that you were...
Q: About the black community.
Fuller: Black community...getting back to the global village again. You
don't need it...and its no such thing as that anyway. Thats a myth. Cause
black people really do not communicate with each other. Black males and
females are at an all time high in war. Never been so much conflict. More
conflict now than there was on the plantation between black males and females.
Confusion! So you can't call this mess any community. And its because of
racism. You do away with racism, you don't need a black community, you don't
need a white community. Now you do need to protect white peoples genes.
Which is something else I didn't cover, I didn't want to get to that. But,
white people are fearful of their offspring becoming black. They won't say
it. I went to some white people's house about two years ago. None of the
white people sitting in that house, cause this was the discussion, would
admit to that. The white men were completely silent, like they usually are
on race issues. The white women said it wasn't so. They said, I don't care
what color my children are. And I said, "I don't believe you're telling
the truth". I told them that, right in front of them. Cause the truth
is what you're got to start with. And this causes all kinds of problems.
But, old white grandmothers will ask, "Daughter, I know you like this
black fella, but you've got to think about the children". He's awfully
dark! That means that my grandchildren are not gonna look like nobody in
my family. Cause black will wipe out white genetically. It'll stomp it out
in a minute! Obliterate it. You won't know where the white went. It's not
talked about, but, I'll talk about it. Cause I'm old, I've got one foot
in the grave. Ain't too much you can do about it anyway. I can tell the
truth about everything. But, thats why I'm saying you don't need a black
community, but, white people and black people are gonna have to sit down
and figure out a comprehensive, logical way to see to it that white people
do not disappear from the earth. Because if we go Martin Luther King's route,
with black people all jumping in bed, on an unrestricted basis, you're not
gonna have any white people. I'll guarantee you that! Now you're in a scientific
community here, everybody knows that thats got any sense at all. Now white
people feel uneasy with that. You don't want to stomp on people's feelings,
not only that, white people apparently, have a purpose as white people.
So you preserve them. Just like you preserve any species walking the face
of this earth. They're correct about that. See, some of the people, most
of the white people, are running all over the world saying that there's
a certain type of fauna, or flora, that needs to be preserved. A certain
type of leaf in Brazil. Say, oh this is the last of its kind. You know...if
we destroy this, it'll be gone forever. And in that leaf, might be the cure
for cancer. See, so you don't take anything out of the universe, thats here,
cause you don't know how it got there. Any rock, any insect, any person,
any species. This is why in most of my talks I have invited the white people,
if they really don't want us on this planet, just kill us all. First speech
I made, University of Maryland, 1969. Thats what I said to a mostly white
audience. I said, if you're fed up with us, you keep saying nigger this
and nigger that, nigger under the bed, nigger gonna take my job...kill us
all, and have the whole universe to yourself. Then explain it to god. Cause
we won't be here. I didn't have no takers. Nobody had anything to say, just
like I said they usually don't. At seminars like this I usually want white
people to talk. They usually don't. But, I understand why. I throw too much
stuff out there at once. Did I answer your question? Whats the last one?
Q: You talked about successfulness, but back to the black community. You
talked about communication as if thats what links community together, is
that your feeling?
Fuller: Thats, thats it. Thats what makes... com-mun-nit-tee...com-mun-ni-cation.
Black people do not communicate with each other. The young black males walk
up and down the street, you can't look at them. If you look at them,...
you dissin me man! I'll kill you! I will kill you! Just for looking at me.
Alright! You think thats communication?
Q: I mean, I beg to differ because there are situations where its not like
that, so I mean, there are situations where I feel that the community is
working.
Fuller: Okay, well see...but this is taking the band aid approach. Black
people got serious problems. You don't look at the little things that are
happening, the SHOULD happen, and then say well we won't concern ourselves
with the thing that shouldn't be happening. Most of what is happening to
black people is awful. The schools, you name it, any area of activity. I've
got nine of them up there. Economics...its awful! Black people are crying
the blues about everything. Give me more welfare, give me this, give me
that. Education...forget that! I'm supposed to be going to a school in a
couple of days...where black people go to school, its a mess! M E S S! Capital
letters! Unless somebody here knows something different. This is why a lot
of black people are trying to take their children out of school and send
them where some white people are...so they can learn something. The schools
are a mess...education. Go right down the list. This is how you measure.
Scientifically. The entertainment field, you ought to turn that off. Most
of it. Look at the movies. Look at the TV shows. Monkey shows! Its a disgrace!
Every now and then you come up with something like "Nothing But A Man".
Something that has a decent message to it. But most of it is just pure trash.
Labor...couple with the rest of it, economic. Law...OJ Simpson's case blew
up in everybody's face. Thats just one example. Politics. They even wanted
Colin Powell to run for President. After all these years...why? Basically
because maybe he can straighten out this race mess. Thats what some white
people thought. But, Colin Powell said, no. You made the mess, you straighten
it out. I'm retiring. I'll sign a few books, and thats it, I'm outta here.
No you're not gonna use me to come in, because this is happening in politics
everywhere. They're bringing in black people to become mayors and congressmen
and all like that...Because everything is a complete shambles! Now I don't
wanna walk in on any situation and say I am now DE MAYOR...and I look around
and all the moneys gone. (Laughter) See what I'm saying...am I telling the
truth or am I? I've got to stick with the truth alright. Religion, forget
that! Churches are a mess. Posturing, faking, pretending. Sex. Black people
sex activity...white peoples sex activity with black people... the code
says, or compensatory logic says that black people should stop having sex
with white people period! Until the rest of this mess is straightened out.
We're the laughing stock of the world. Thats that trashy bit. I know gonna
stomp on some feeling then cause see sex is a great motivating force. So
if you don't clean that up, nothing else is gonna be clean. And all of it
is war. So wheres the community? What you have is a white community. And
its called white supremacy. You don't have any non-white community anywhere...even
when it looks like it is. See a prison is not a community! This is prison.
Just because I've got cell mates, that doesn't say I'm a community. I'm
where I don't want to be. I'm where I shouldn't be. And the black people
of this planet are prisoners of war...race war. You're restricted. Thats
what prison means. You can't go here. You can't go there without being stopped...and
say, wait a minute, hold it, hold it lady, hold it mister...where are you
going, what are you doing? Did I give you permission to come here? Well
then you go back there. Thats how you know you're not a community. Thats
why you know you don't have power. Powerless.
Q: So I guess that goes to your successful black people, you're talking
about power...
Fuller: Thats what I mean. In other words, you cannot be a successful black
person and be subject to racism at the same time, otherwise, why call yourself,
successful BLACK person.
Q: So are you saying that successful should not be linked with black or
you cannot be a successful person as a black person?
Fuller: You can't be and subject to racism. Thats a contradiction. If I
am subject to racism, I'm not successful. That should be the criteria. We
think of success as I got a new car.
Q: No, I wouldn't think of that.
Fuller: Alright, what is success?
Q: When I meet my personal goals then I think that I've had successes in
my life.
Fuller: Okay, lets take it...what would be the personal goal?
Q: Like my, my, uh, ulterior motive to receive my Ph.D.. So I've been successful
in that motive.
Fuller: A Ph.D. is what you call a degree of learning...right. Now learning...
I went to Georgetown Day School one time just as a visitor...and the lady
who was the director of Georgetown Day School said...told the young people
there, black and white...said...the reason you are going to school is to
make the world the kinda place it ought to be. Unquote. That hit me like
a bomb. Because, that IS the reason. But, see black people are expected
to have what you call niggling reasons, meaning small things. Thats what
the word niggling means, that why black people are sometimes called niggers.
See...small minded people. Impossible for them to think on an grand scale,
alright. So we come up and say, I'm successful because I'm able to sharpen
one pencil instead of two. I mean two pencils instead of one. Or... because
I have gotten my Ph.D... Or because the lady at Georgetown said the reason
for getting the Ph.D., or anything else is to make the world the type of
place that it ought to be...the entire world! That is your reason. And if
you're not doing that, you are thinking on a very tiny infantile scale.
That was the message that I got out of her presentation. I go with that
message. Because with the world expanding you might say...or contracting...based
on the interaction between people, this is what you have.
Q: But, attaining my Ph.D. was not just a personal thing, it was for the
betterment of my community. Cause I knew that once I did that, that it allowed
other people to have the inspiration necessary to see someone as myself
as a mentor to go ahead and follow in my footsteps. And then once I am in
my particular place, and this is where I believe in community, each one
teach one, I reach back and pull another person back in my place and move
on forward. So that I feel that I have made some successes in my life, and
hopefully will make more successes for other people. Do you know what I
mean.
Fuller: I understand completely what you mean, so its no problem there.
Q: Okay...
Fuller: Its no problem there. But, you know... and you have...you never
turn loose to your own definitions. I took these definitions...because I
say they are more expansive. They allow a person to soar rather than put
themselves in a box. Anybody else has a question, cause I might be towards
the end. Am I running out of time sir? Okay...
Q: You shared a group of role that would help us on a personal basis to
wash away the stains of racism, do you have recommendations for how we in
our towns, in our states, in our country, can make some kind of move as
a group...
Fuller: Do I have recommendations...?
Q: For things our country should be doing. The things that our states should
be doing to try and also combat the effects of racism...
Fuller: Okay, a State is a person. A country is made up of people. You are
a person. The recommendation always is you do the thing that need doing.
you say the things that need saying. And you try to be helpful in everything
that you do. This is all, this is the whole, whole bit. I started off this
talk, you probably wasn't here,...talking about royalism. You gotta get
out of the royal idea. Everybody, who has that idea. Its an old idea, its
run its course. That everybody is going to be a king and a queen, born royalty
over somebody else. And when people run around thinking like this you gonna
have automatic war, forever. Because, somebody is always trying to dethrone
the king. The Roman emperors used to debate this all the time. You ever
saw the TV series "I Claudius"? All they did was engage in palace
intrigue. One emperor trying to dethrone another. Even family members turning
against each other. You see a little bit of that even in the corporate world.
Family members...same members of what you call, a corporate family, and
they go to court and they cut each others throats. Its an old dying system.
It should be dead. But, when it was put on a color basis, it was made even
worse. So everywhere you go you're supposed to be trying to replace racism
with justice. And you have to do it as individuals. Thats the whole point
for being here in this assembly today. You have to do it as individuals.
Fred next door is not gonna do it. You can't depend on that. If you're black
or if you're white, you have to do it as individuals. And the main thing
you have to be is honest. Tell people the truth. But first ask them cause
they might not be ready for it. Say look, you want me to lie to you, or
you want me to tell you the truth? I saw that done once in a little television
program. The person asked that...every time he'd get ready to say something,
he said, do you want me to lie to you or do you want me to tell you the
truth? Said, okay, I hope you're ready for it, here it comes, boom! Right,
see. And thats the way you should do it, each and every day. In the work
place and everywhere else, do you want me to lie to you, do you want me
to tell you the truth? Cause the truth usually hurts in a society, a world
society thats been set up on lies! We take if for granted we're gonna be
lied to. Everybody's got into the habit of it. Deception! Does that answer
you're question? Just because I said it doesn't mean that I'm telling you
the truth, you gotta watch me too. Anybody else? One more question.
Q: Unintelligible...monsters and monstrosities?
Fuller: The system of white supremacy produces two types of black people.
Monsters and Monstrosities. This is according to me...I'm talking about
behaviors. I am a monstrosity. The fact that I'm taking up all of this time...considerable
time...I mean this is prime time. In the afternoon, in a space center. Electricity
burning, heat going. And we're here...and there are people here who could
be doing other things. I could be doing other things. I should be somewhere
tending a garden, growing cucumbers. I'm in here talking about racism! That
makes me a monstrosity! The very fact that I have to do that or feel compelled
to do that. I shouldn't be any such thing as a thing called racism. This
takes up a lot of time and causes a lot of agony. This makes me a monstrosity
just having to be here. Or feeling compelled to be here. Or just going around
doing this from time to time. When I could be doing something more constructive,
if it weren't for the existence of this dilemma. The monster thing is the
fella who's gonna put the nine millimeter behind your ear on the parking
lot. Like I said, white supremacy produces two types of black people, monsters
and monstrosities. Black people in the monstrosity stage are peculiar acting
people. I'm peculiar acting. We're weird acting people. The things that
we say are things that most people don't even want to hear. Cause most of
the time we don't make sense. Did you ever notice that white people don't
want to talk to black people? Yet, its the system of white supremacy that
produces the black people that they don't want to talk to. This is not by
accident. So they produce monstrosities. And the monstrosity when you take
it to the n-th degree, becomes a monster. Becomes something like a thief,
or a robber, or a killer, or a person who just goes off! Its the logical
conclusion. The white people of this planet cannot point to black people
and say now the black people which we took under our tutelage have improved.
Really, if you think of it scientifically, a black person who is running
around stark naked...with a spear...cause they sometimes say black people
are, you know, just ignorant spear chuckers. But a black person, running
around stark naked, with a spear...who's never seen a coca cola bottle or
a white person or anything except a bunch of mosquitoes and snakes...is
really, if you think about it objectively now, scientifically...if you can
follow that person around and watch that persons behavior its more civilized
than the black people you see walking around with the baggy pants on and
the nine millimeter in the belt, and the standing on the subway, looking
for a fight, if anybody wants to start one. Thats the product of white supremacy
you're looking at. He's just as black as the person who is in what you call
the jungle, but, you can sit down with that person in what you call the
jungle and make more sense out of that person than you can a product of
what we call modern society. Now you figure, how did that happen? Did I
answer the question? Okay.
Q: Mr. Fuller? Someone has a question?
Q: So would you say that white delinquents or white criminals are also products
of white supremacy? Or is it just the individual people being in adverse
circumstances and making bad decisions and looking for the wrong answers
to their problems like trying to get easy money quick or trying to hang
with the gang and be safe?
Fuller: Right, well I started off the talk talking about royalism. You see,
it used to be that white people persecuted white people. Just like you have
in what you call central Europe now. In Bosnia. Those are white people killing
white people, alright, kind of a hang over from the old days. But when the
white people of this planet began to explore and move about, they noticed
that most of the people on the planet were what you might call quote, unquote,
non-white. So the said, lets move the old royal system, where you used to
have serfs and slaves among our own and lets put it on a color basis. And
it took off on a grand scale and its been a booming enterprise for many
years. Now some white people as individuals, fall through the cracks. They
become what I call white sacrifices. In other words, they are a part of
the white supremacist system, but, they fall through the cracks. In other
words, like in any army you're gonna have some casualties. So the white
man that ends up on the park bench, broke, hungry, begging for dimes...that
wasn't supposed to happen. But in any big organization you have some people
who weren't supposed to get hurt, who get hurt. Thats why this is. But it
wasn't set up for that. If you are a white person it was set up to benefit
you at the expense of any person classified as non-white. Thats how its
set up. You didn't set it up, I didn't set it up, but, thats how it was
set up.
Q: Mr. Fuller, I have a question. I my experience in dealing with the topic
of racism in the workplace or otherwise when addressing the topic to white
people, and I take this back to your earlier, what you said earlier about
white people knowing how to dismantle the system or white supremacists knowing
how to dismantle the system, what I've found is that often white people
are reluctant or fearful of the exchange, the exchange, the verbal exchange
and I guess... the other thing is its taken about two years to set this
particular session up, because of various peoples fears...I guess their
perception about what would happen when the type of language that you're
using is used on an installation like this. I wonder if you could speak
to the fear thats involved there, and how would a non-white person who is
a victim of racism ask or coerce a white person who says they want to end
racism, to help, if they can't get past the language?
Fuller: They have to get past the language. If they want to do something
about the problem, rather than keep trying to sweep it up under the rug,
because they've run out of rugs! Theres no place to sweep it now. The world
is getting too small. Its... you see magazine covers saying the "browning"
of everything...the people coming across the borders. You see, when you
go and stir people up somewhere, and then go home and lay down and go to
sleep, the next thing you know, those same people are knocking on your door...saying,
Hey Daddy, you ran off and left me! You know, I didn't know who you were
or where you came from, but, you did come and then you set up a way of doing
things that made me dependent on you...so here I am! So now you have a world
welfare system, where the non-white people of the world are knocking on
the door of the white people saying wait a minute, you taught me to do everything
the way you want it done, which means now, I am dependent upon you! See,
the best way to talk to white people about it...and if I was a white person,
to get you off of my back, I would say now look, I'm gonna make you dependent
upon yourself. And I'm gonna give you everything it takes to make you...because
I am tired of you running to me , bothering me, you're getting to be a real
nuisance. Okay, but, white people won't make that decision, because they
continue to want to ego trip off of this royal concept. When all they have
to do is just dump it. Just go to all these different places, I don't care...Brazil,
Africa, and what not, and just say, look...you are no longer beholden to
me...I'm outta here! I'll just teach you how to do everything thats got
to be done, you don't have to call me any more to do the plumbing and the
electricity or none of the rest of this stuff. And I'm outta here. But they
won't be honest about it. See, they like to strut and thats what the problem
is and you're got to tell them that strutting is no longer paying off for
anybody. The queen, even today,...of England...likes to go around to places
like Jamaica and have everybody drop what they're doing while she rides
by in a coach. What is that! That doesn't produce anything! But this is
the kinda nonsense that racism spawns. Its nothing but royalism, if you
don't like the term racism just think of royalty cause thats all it is.
AND ITS DEAD...it should be dead! I mean as far as in principle.
Q: And one more question, I wanted to ask you about peoples practice of
religion, and you have on the bottom left hand corner...the strongest religion
in the world. Maybe you can go into the definition of religion.
Fuller: Religion is just a strong belief.
Q: Okay, and in terms of people practicing their religion and the amount
of time...like one of the questions I've heard you ask is can a Christian
be a racist, can a Muslim be a racist, and so on...
Fuller: No, a white supremacist is a racist. You cannot be a Christian and
be a white supremacist at the same time. Its impossible! A Muslim cannot
be a racist, a Jew cannot be a racist. You are either a white supremacist
or you're not. Either you believe that being white entitles you to be royal,
where you can mistreat people who are of color at will, or you don't believe
that. And if you believe in white supremacy you don't believe in any other
religion. Its impossible. Because you're religion will contradict...in other
words you'll be a hypocrite. Big time. Which is not unique for a racist
because being a racist calls for you to be a hypocrite. Cause you have to
lie. If you're just a professional liar you're a hypocrite, you got to lie
to everybody, you got to lie on the job, you got to tell people things that
are not so. You're hypocritical if you profess that you're something else.
Q: What would you call a person, then, who is a servant to white supremacy
and thereby supports the system of white supremacy and is non-white...as
far as...if they're not practicing...if they say that they're Christians
and they're not practicing Christianity because they're supporting white
supremacy, what do you call them then?
Fuller: Victims. Thats all. A person who is trying to practice something
and can't, because the racists will not allow the victims to do anything
except be beholden to them. If you have a religion where you call yourself
a Christian or a Jew, or a Hindu, or a Confucianist, and the white supremacist
come along and say, "I don't agree with that part of your religion,
take it out"...thats what you have to do...if you want to be employed
the next day. Thats the way it works. Thats why you know its the most powerful
religion. Cause they'll make you change your religion to suit them. They'll
do it in five minutes. It doesn't take long, they'll break your faith completely
by just simply saying, you can't do it. Even where you're gonna have your
church, they decide that. Does that answer your question?
Q: Yes it does.
Fuller: I'm exhausting people now, this is a subject that needs to be exhaustive.
You need to be groggy with it. So much so you can't stand anymore. And then
go back in and get some more. You ever saw the movie Twelve O'clock High?
Gregory Peck,...its about bombers over Germany, and he said we've got these
handful of planes, this handful of people, we gonna have to take these young
fellas and put them over Germany every day and every night until they are
groggy so much that they can't keep their eyes open and then when they come
back with their planes all shot to pieces and what-not we're gonna have
to patch them up, patch them up, patch their planes up, load them up with
bombs and send em right back up again! Say, we gotta find out what a maximum
effort is. When you're talking about the race issue thats exactly the approach
that everybody should take. You just keep going until you drop. And that
should be your priority in this existence. Cause its the biggest thing on
the burner. You can't claim theres nothing more important than this... whether
you're black or white. It dictates, it dictates everything. First thing
you have to think about. If a white person sitting in here decides that
he or she is gonna buy a house, before he or she even considers the mortgage
rate, he or she has to consider where the house is going to be. Cause you
go take a look and its right on the edge of what we call a black neighborhood,...
don't buy no house there! Property values gonna go through the floor. Not
only that somebody's gonna be crawling through your window about the night
that you move in. So you've gotta think about color. Whether you like it
or not. Any more questions, cause we got about two minutes.
Q: Mr. Fuller, its often said that people have tried to espouse whats call
to be integration as a solution to the problem of racism. Whats your opinion
on that suggested solution?
Fuller: Well, I don't like the word integration because I don't know what
it means. That why I started calling myself a "compensationalist"
meaning making up for whats missing...whats missing is Justice. See, so
you can throw racial segregation out, racial integration out, because you
can't define it. Where is an integrated black person? Is it any place I
can go and get a certificate that makes me a bonifide racially integrated
black person? Where everybody understands what its supposed to mean? Where
I can walk in and say, "oh, I'm an integrated black person"...and
then like magic, all the nice things are supposed to happen. You can't say
that integration means a black person standing next to a white person. Black
people go to bed with white people, but, has that solved the race problem?
You can't get any closer than that...sexual intercourse. Hasn't not solved
not one thing...got O.J. in trouble...Big time. Both black people and white
people are angry about it. You wanna make some white people mad, or some
black people, and get an argument started just mention...hey, what your
situation on O.J.? Particularly about one or two days after the verdict.
If you really push it the bricks might start flying. We've got a serious
race problem here. That what it is. Did I answer your question? Did I answer
your question? Okay. Well, thats about it folks and I hope that you got
some food for thought out of it, I'm sorry that you didn't...you mostly
just asked questions, you didn't get up and challenge me on anything, because
like one white person has said about me this week, what I do I spread a
bunch of lies. That could be true! Its up to you to decide. Thanks for coming.
