“Occupied Wall Street” Los Angeles

A Proposal:

Operation Wall Street To Skid Row, LA The Homeless Capital of America

To Complete The Unfinished Business of the Declaration of Independence Concerning the Descendants of the Nations’ Slaves

(by Ted Hayes – Americas’ Black Shield and Justiceville)

A Cohesive Element To Unite Us All

Of all the varying ideas, agendas, issues and factions being brought before “Wall Street” to give account of, all of them can now agree that the homeless and descendants of slaves should be the number one concern of our movement.

Such strategy grants us the high moral ground, in that we are more concerned about the moral rectitude of our nation than squabbling over money.

The Narrative

In the first year of the US Civil War, 150 years ago, demoralized young Americans were trying to decide whether or not the great bloodshed and expenditure of national treasure was about politics, economics (money), and government protocol of States 10th Amendments Rights verse Federal Oversight – Jurisdiction or the freeing of fellow human beings and this New Nation from the scourge of slavery.

Thank GOD these young American chose the later, thereby President Abraham Lincoln set the New Nation on a course of imperative, moral rectitude as long as it endures.

Of the United States, Lincoln says that a “a new nation, conceived in Liberty, and dedicated to the proposition that all men are created equal.”, and “Now we are engaged in a great civil war, testing whether that nation, or any nation so conceived and so dedicated, can long endure.”

Indeed, America is a New Nation of willing immigrants, built by and for immigrants, but cruelly and wickedly done so on the back of unwilling slaves from West Africa.

“Wall Street” i.e. Corporate-rich America, the monetary system of the world, the object of our rebuke, was built by European immigrants on the back of the peculiar institution of chattel slavery as was the United States, its host country.

In an attempt to honor the sacred Business Contract made by the Founding Fathers with GOD in the Declaration of Independence, this New Nation began a moral work that remains unfinished to this day as it relates to the sons and daughters of slaves.

Lincoln says, “It is for us the living, rather, to be dedicated here to the unfinished work…the great task remaining before us -- that this nation, under God, shall have a new birth of freedom -- and that government of the people, by the people, for the people, shall not perish from the earth.”

The reason for this financial upheaval and general civil unrest in America is due to the unfinished business that we as a nation of immigrants and slaves have not yet in sight of GOD, finished.

According to the Declaration of Independence, enforced by US Constitution, as long as the slaves are hurting, the immigrants likewise will suffer even more so, because as the late Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. says, that the fate of our two peoples are as one conjoined twin.

“…as evidenced by their (Whites) presence here today, have come to realize that their destiny is tied up with our destiny and their freedom is inextricably bound to our freedom.”

Concomitantly, a generation ago, in light of the abuse of the sons and daughters of the peoples on whom America is built, Dr. King prophesied before 250,000 peoples and the world, that if the nation doesn’t complete it business concerning them, that it would someday experience “a rude awakening”

He prophesies, “Those who hope that the Negro needed to blow off steam and will now be content will have a rude awakening if the nation returns to business as usual.

There will be neither rest nor tranquility in America until the Negro is granted his citizenship rights.

The whirlwinds of revolt will continue to shake the foundations of our nation until the bright day of justice emerges.”

Well, here we are!  The fate of this New Nation is suddenly placed in the hands of young Americans in Los Angeles.  The Rude Awakening could either be that emerging “bright day of justice”, or nation destroying “dark night” of greed to doom.

Today, young Americans have the wonderful and unexpected opportunity to be the catalyst to finish what those young men and women under the inspiring leadership of Abraham Lincoln started 150 years ago by marching on behalf of the sons and daughters of slaves.

Los Angeles: The Capital of Homeless In America

As “Wall Street” is the direct polar opposite and primary cause of homelessness, it poetic justice that young people has laid siege to the Los Angeles City Hall.

Ironically, Los Angeles is considered the homelessness capital of America and where being only 11% in general population, the descendants of the slaves upon whose back Wall Street and this New Nation is constructed, comprise over 60% of the homelessness population of the United States.

Shamefully, in this homeless capital, Black men, sons of the slaves are 85% of the population, while their sisters are next in numbers to be on the streets in downtown, Skid Row, Los Angeles.

Ironically, while people willingly left their homeland for America and the Dream thereof, many participated in and benefited from slavery and racial legislation against the descendants of the slaves forced from theirs homes be a unwilling homeless peoples in the United States of immigrant.

Since their liberation from chattel slavery on April 9,1865, the descendents of the slaves, disproportionately and too often numerically, have led this New Nation of willing immigrants in nearly every negative social statistics.

Today, the children of the slaves are between 17 and 18 % of the unemployment rate and climbing.

Is such data concerning the descendants of American slaves reveal them as shiftless and lazy, or is there a connection with their experience of unwilling enslavement?

The “Occupy Wall Street” movement is now challenged to address the most significant issue of the United States from it inception and foundation which clearly is its continued unfinished business concerning slavery.

Occupy “Wall Street” Los Angels is now poised to dramatically set to return this exceptional New Nation to finally manifest the American Creed by making the plight of the homeless, particularly as it relates to the descendants of slaves the number one agenda.

The “Wall Street” brokers, the politicians and government officials are not expecting such an agenda from young White peoples, which is not about money and governmental protocol, right or left wing political competition, but rather moral priority under GOD to do justly.

Homeless and Slave Descendants and The Indigenous People To The Front of the “Bus”

GOD Willing, in the event, that “Wall Street” should repent as is asking of it, according to the Constitution of the United States, of all the pains and frustrating situations of all Americans, triage must begin with those who are at gravest risk of loosing life, liberty and pursuit of happiness.

From 1865 to the present, the freed slave class have been racially excluded from the freedoms of the “White citizens” of immigrants of the New Nation, and literally relegated to the “back of the bus”.

It is now in the hand of immigrant children to live out the American Creed and finally fulfill that Promissory Note by figuratively bringing the slave descendants from the back to the front of the bus; from following the procession of justice to leading it.

The Moral Inspiration To Win

 In conclusion, there will come a time when the “occupiers” will become weary and disillusioned, as is the way of people, due to the daunting power of “Wall Street” and its’ governmental arm that they will soon encounter in its full and angry strength.

However, in taking on the polar opposite and ultimate manifestation of corrupt Wall Street”, the youths of America will become as inspired as those of 150 years who spent their lives fighting, dying and winning-won the sacred struggle for another peoples who were suffering immeasurably beyond what they as the children of willing immigrants were.

Money verses Morality

As long as the primary dispute is about money, and personal loss of gainful employment for material happiness, our struggle with Wall Street is weakened because have wealth is a temporal relative issue, whereas, fighting for the homeless and descendants of slaves provides us the cloak of moral authority.

Soldiers of the Poor and Slaves Everywhere

This sudden evolution in thought by the “occupiers” will throw Wall Street et al, back on their heals with no defense, because of the moral climate that our struggle now takes even catching the notice of the world, majority of which is destitute and homeless.

As temporal money (who has it and who has it not and how they got it and lost it) is no longer is the primary focus of our struggles, but rather justice for all – the 99% of the world, we then own the high moral ground.

The billions of poor and oppressed peoples world are watching and waiting for us Americans, with all of our lofty ideals and inspirational words of “life, liberty and pursuit of happiness” to lead them to the Promised Land of Justice!
