I was assisted in writing this post by a bottle of Marchesi de’ Cordano – Trinita’ Montepulciano d’Abruzzo Riserva 2018. This Italian Red (Abruzzo, Italy) is among the top 1% of all wines in the world. But reachable at a reasonable price of $22.00. Slightly bold. Tight structure. Moderate tannins. High acidity. Leading with oak, plums, and raspberries. A sustain of vanilla, dark fruits, and sweet cherries. Ending in tobacco, raisins, and blackberries. Long, smoky finish.

“At no time have governments been moralists. They never imprisoned people and executed them for having done something. They imprisoned and executed them to keep them from doing something. They imprisoned all those POW’s, of course, not for treason to the motherland, because it was absolutely clear even to a fool that only the Vlasov men could be accused of treason. They imprisoned all of them to keep them from telling their fellow villagers about Europe. What the eye doesn’t see, the heart doesn’t grieve for…”

OH SHIT!!! An everyday Freedman citizen taking her power back.
I am extremely proud to post this email. Of course I got permission from the originator. The originator? Sister soldier Doris Lewis of Chicago. She is a staunch supporter of lineage-based Reparations. She continues to be in the vanguard when it comes to rights and tangibles for those that are Black descendants of American chattel slavery. Born in Jackson, Mississippi into the arms of her activist parents.
A retired educator. She is all of 80 years old and continues to be in robust health.
The main recipients of this email were Chicago Aldermen Desmond Yancy (5th Ward) and Lamont Robinson (4th Ward). This email was also CC’d to 100 other people including myself, local city officials and administrators, local reparations activists like Marlon Watson and Mama Dee Love. Local Black activists like Mark Carter, Denise Heatherington, Cata Truss, and Karen Hicks. CC’d to activist pastors like Victoria Brady. And even CC’d to Pan African reparations treasonists Kamm Howard and Mansong Kulubally. The glaring omission was a CC to Mayor Brandon Johnson himself. But!!! The Mayor has shut down public access to his email queue. So I forwarded the email to his Chief of Staff – Richard Guidice.
This is a snapshot of how fed-up the citizens of Chicago are with the Democratic Party. The Mayor’s office is being run like a North Korean dictatorship. I will never again vote Democratic unless guarantees are on the table and agreed on.
The Complete Text of the Email:
DEPLORABLE SERVANTS OF THEMSELVES
Dear Family: This email is being addressed to Chicago Aldermen Desmond Yancy (of the 5th Ward) and Lamont Robinson (of the 4th Ward). I do not intend to be kind to them in any way. My language is extremely harsh and vulgar at times, and I ask for your understanding. And if you don’t understand my passion and emotional pain, so be it. I only have to answer to the CREATOR.
To Alderman Yancy and Alderman Robinson,
I am writing this email based on an alarming and unfortunate observation I witnessed on Saturday, December 30, 2023. A neighbor of mine was in desperate need of medication and did not have anyone or a way to get it. Knowing her condition and the importance of her needing the medicine, I volunteered to walk to 47th Street and Lake Park to Walgreens to pick up the prescription. On my way there – under the viaduct at 47th Street, I noticed three homeless people. Two were in dirty ragged sleeping bags, and one was in a tent of some kind. Immediately, I became nauseated and emotionally pained and saddened. Nevertheless, I proceeded to carry out my mission of getting medical help for my friend.
On my way back home, going along the same route and viaduct, I noticed a face showing from under a sleeping bag. I thought it was a child’s face. But as I got closer, I could see that it was a woman. I stopped and asked her name, and she provided it. I then asked her how long she had been there. And she said, “two weeks.” Before then, she informed me that she had been living with her mother. My assessment and thoughts were regardless of what had happened to her and the others there – no one should have to sleep on a filthy, piss infested, feces infested, rat infested, cold sidewalk street in Chicago, and in the richest country in the world that these people’s ancestors built. NOT ONE BLACK PERSON IN AMERICA SHOULD ENDURE THIS!
Then my mind went to You – Alderman Yancy. You – Alderman Robinson. Two despicable bitches who got where you are from the struggles of our ancestors who survived the Middle Passage, 240 years of slavery, 14 years of Reconstruction, and 88 years of Jim Crow going on until this present day. You stand on their shoulders! I know the ancestors are crying from their graves. Our ancestors are asking the question: “How did we allow niggers like you to occupy such an important space?” Not one of you bitches faced fire hoses, lynchings, nor any of the degrading things that Black men, women, and children have experienced and then continue to experience in this hell hole called America today. You are beneficiaries of the struggle. But you lowlife niggers have not done one thing to advance your people.
Alderman Yancy, you contemptible piece of shit. These brothers and sister are on the border of your Ward, the 5th, where for a block North of your border – you voted to spend forty million dollars a month to support illegal economic immigrants at the Lake Shore Hotel, located at 4900B South Lake Shore Drive – in Hyde Park Chicago. Illegal economic immigrants whom are thugs, prostitutes, and drug runners for the Mexican Cartels. Alderman Robinson – you card carrying fucking minister. A pimp bitch in the church, robber of your people, they are in your Ward, the 4th. You voted to spend forty million dollars a month of Chicago taxpayers’ money to do the same, while Black people lay in filth on your watch. Have you gone to the border of the 4th Ward to look into their eyes Alderman Robinson (after you went to the Southern border to look into the eyes of illegal migrants)? You two ignoble, rabid vultures need to be tarred and feathered!
It is the Black politicians, Black elitists, Black religious professionals, and Black social whores like you who have contributed to us losing so much because all of you don’t have the vision, the intelligence, or the courage to fight for, maintain for, and build for your people. You follow the plans of racist white men. Particularly the so-called White Zionist Jews. We have Black people in key positions at the municipal, county, and state levels in Illinois. But look at our condition.
Alderman Yancy – my sister and I met with you and discussed the “Contract with Black Chicago 2023” when you ran for Alderman of the 5th Ward. You agreed to it. In return, we gave you our support. I walked all over Hyde Park passing out your literature. And what did you do on your first City Council vote? You repulsive, lowlife motherfucker – voted against the interests of YOUR PEOPLE in support of those that speak Spanish. I told you that if you deceived or crossed my people, I would be your constant nightmare. Well – you have earned that nightmare.
To allow you fucking sell-out rats to stay in office will be to the detriment of our born and unborn children. We will not allow you to remain in your position as Alderman. But, in the meantime, take your repugnant asses over to 47th Street and Lake Park and move our sister and brothers to the Lake Shore Hotel – 4900B in Hyde Park. The same place where the illegal, economic immigrants are being housed, clothed, and fed at the expense of these brothers and sisters’ tax dollars and other legal taxpayers of Chicago.
I AM DONE WITH YOU VILLAINOUS NIGGERS!!!
An angry conscious Black mother and grandmother.
END OF EMAIL
My understanding as of now is that both Aldermanic offices have taken action to assist those people. That’s just one small situation. We need massive help with all of the Black homeless in this City. Family – we are working right now to shut down all of this Sanctuary City bullshit. We are working to flip the City Red.
