oh God! what am I to do if I love nothing but fame and men's esteem?

Aylmer had long laid aside in unwilling recognition of the truth—against which all seekers sooner or later stumble—that our great creative Mother, while she amuses us with apparently working in the broadest sunshine, is yet severely careful to keep her own secrets, and, in spite of her pretended openness, shows us nothing but results.
Nathaniel Hawthorne (Mosses from an Old Manse)
Ronald Fisher was a genius who almost single-handedly created the foundations for modern statistical science.

Lady Catherine quoting Lizzie Bennet: She had the impudence to reply that, whilst these would be heavy misfortunes, your wife must have such extraordinary sources of happiness necessarily attached to her situation, that she could, upon the whole, have no cause to repine.

You have no business to be an unbeliever. You ought to stand for all the things these stupid people call superstitions. Come now, don't you think there's a lot in those old wives' tales about luck and charms and so on, silver bullets included? What do you say about them as a Catholic?' 'I say I'm an agnostic,' replied Father Brown, smiling. 'Nonsense,' said Aylmer impatiently. 'It's your business to believe things.' 'Well, I do believe some things, of course,' conceded Father Brown; 'and therefore, of course, I don't believe other things.

Aylmer's sombre imagination was not long in rendering the birthmark a frightful object, causing him more trouble and horror than ever Georgiana's beauty, whether of soul or sense, had given him delight.
Jack London (The Best Short Stories of All Time - Volume 1)
During his second reign, however, he appears to have had a change of heart (or at least his numismatists did) as Jesus Christ was depicted as a Black man with curly hair. Obviously they must have had enough evidence that proved Jesus Christ was a Black man. Indeed, a lot of evidence still remained in fallen Rome itself that strongly indicated Jesus Christ was a Black man and that the early Jews and Christians were Blacks.

MICHELANGELO (1475-1564)   One of the major reasons the image of Jesus Christ was changed from black to white was due to some of Michelangelo's paintings. He was given a contract on 10th May 1508 by Pope Julius II to paint the ceiling of the Sistine Chapel. He used members of his family as models. For instance, his cousin was the model for Jesus Christ. The paintings were carried out between 1508 and 1512.

I am not at all expirenced in the ways of the world, as you are. But it seems to me that people are of good breeding if they behave in a genteel manner; are thoughtful and considerate, and not because of who they are, or because they are always proud of how much money or consequence they possess. - Georgiana Darcy
Janet Aylmer (New Illustrated Darcy's Story)
disciples call the true prophet...he was a man of simple appearance, mature age, black-skinned, short growth, three cubits tall, hunchbacked, prognathous, with a long nose, eyebrows meeting above the nose...with scanty curly hair, but having a line in the middle of the head after the fashion of the Nazaraeans, with an undeveloped beard.

THE CURIOUS CASE OF THE LEMBA       One of the most outstanding cases of  Black diaspora Jewry is the case of the Lemba of southern Africa. The Lemba have long claimed that they are Jews or Israelites who migrated to Yemen and from there to Africa as traders. Amazingly, DNA evidence has backed the Lemba claim of Jewish ancestry.   Today, the Lemba can be found in southern Africa countries like Malawi, South Africa and Zimbabwe. Many of their customs are similar to Jews such as the wearing of  yarmulke-like skull cups and observing kosher laws such as the requirement not to eat pork. Interestingly they also avoid eating rabbits, scaleless fish, hares and carrion. In short, the Lemba follow the requirements in the Torah, which is the first five books of the Old Testament.     The Lemba claim that about 2500 years ago, their ancestors left Judea for Yemen. Only males are said to have sailed to Africa by boat. The migrants took local wives for themselves. They built a city in Yemen called Sena. From Sena they traveled to Africa where they dispersed. Some remained in East Africa and others traveled to southern Africa. Lemba women do not have 'Semitic' admixture, and this is in line with their oral history.     Professor Tudor Vernon Parfitt, a professor of Jewish Studies then at the University of London, spent several months among the Lemba. He later travelled to Yemen and to his

*              *              *     One of the major reasons why the image of Jesus Christ was changed from Black to White was because of the rise of White supremacy in Europe and across the world, and the demise of the Black race.

civilizations. Why then, they asked themselves did they need to portray many ancient heroes and heroines as Blacks? That, they reckoned, was self-defeating. And so when White people finally adopted Christianity, they gradually but effectively changed the images and other artifacts of Jesus Christ and other Biblical characters from Black to White.     Whites themselves were not the original Christians as as already pointed out. Most of us know how they severely persecuted the early Christians. They brutally executed them and threw them to lions and other wild animals to devor in their arenas for their viewing pleasure. Yes, many of the early Christians left behind frescos and other images in the catacombs of Rome that indicated that the historical Christ was Black.. Many Hebrews/Jews lived in Rome

noted earlier, the original Arabs were Blacks descended from Ishmael. The Blacks in the South of the Arabian Peninsula therefore referred to themselves as Ishmaelites or Shiites. The great Abbasid Empire was created out of this movement. The Shiites viewed with disgust the appointment of Abu Bekr as Caliph since they believed that any successor of Mohammed should come from his lineage. They believed that Mohammed’s cousin, Ali Talib, deserved the title, an idea opposed by the northern Arabs, as they were not connected by blood to the Prophet. The confusion led to the creation of the Sunni Muslim who wanted the Caliph to be elected. The Abbasid Empire

These harsh laws were meant to cement the status of Blacks as chattel with little or no rights and freedom, while the slave masters had complete control over their Black slaves. Some of the laws restricted the right of slaves to learn how to read and write, to own firearms, resisting a White person whether or not in self-defense, or leaving the owner's plantation without seeking permission.     An

After the American civil war when one would have expected that Blacks in America would be set free and even compensated for all the wrong they had suffered in the country, they were rather slapped with evil laws known as the Black Codes.

Roman documents also indicated the presence of several Blacks among the Berbers known as Gaetuli and Asphodelodes. It is therefore clear that the word Berber as well as Arab can be misleading. It refers more to culture than to race.

The true Moors (Blacks) were later called blackamoors to distinguish them from the lightcomplexioned inhabitants of North Africa. The ancestors of the ‘true Moors’ were probably the formidable Garamantes who occupied parts of North Africa and the Sahara. Tacitus called these courageous Blacks invincible, and Romans found them to be formidable adversaries.

Fifteenth Amendment ensured that all Americans could vote irrespective of their race. However, the earlier willingness to pass laws that would see Blacks as equal citizens began to erode. In the 1873 Slaughterhouse cases, the State of Louisiana gave the slaughtering business to one company, which resulted in some limited monopoly.

The First Blast. Entitled A Harbour for Faithful and True Subjects, it was published anonymously in Strasbourg in April 1559. It was certainly not intended as a defence of women. In Aylmer’s opinion, although ‘some women be wiser, better learned, discreeter, constanter than a number of men’, most were ‘fond, foolish, wanton, flibbertigibbets, tattlers, trifling, wavering witless, without counsel, feeble, careless, rash, proud, dainty, nice [meaning pernickety], tale-bearers, eaves-droppers, rumour-raisers, evil tongued, worse-minded and in every way doltified with the dregs of the devil’s dunghill’.

Graham of Claverhouse, you know, who persecuted the Covenanters and had a black horse that could ride straight up a precipice. Don’t you know he could only be shot with a silver bullet, because he had sold himself to the Devil? That’s one comfort about you; at least you know enough to believe in the Devil.’ ‘Oh, yes,’ replied Father Brown, ‘I believe in the Devil. What I don’t believe in is the Dundee. I mean the Dundee of Covenanting legends, with his nightmare of a horse. John Graham was simply a seventeenth-century professional soldier, rather better than most. If he dragooned them it was because he was a dragoon, but not a dragon. Now my experience is that it’s not that sort of swaggering blade who sells himself to the Devil. The devil-worshippers I’ve known were quite different. Not to mention names, which might cause a social flutter, I’ll take a man in Dundee’s own day. Have you ever heard of Dalrymple of Stair?’ ‘No,’ replied the other gruffly. ‘You’ve heard of what he did,’ said Father Brown, ‘and it was worse than anything Dundee ever did; yet he escapes the infamy by oblivion. He was the man who made the Massacre of Glencoe. He was a very learned man and lucid lawyer, a statesman with very serious and enlarged ideas of statesmanship, a quiet man with a very refined and intellectual face. That’s the sort of man who sells himself to the Devil.’ Aylmer

According to Lerone Bennett Jr., the author of the book Forced Into Glory: Abraham Lincoln's White Dream, Lincoln even made many racist jokes and used racist language. Many Lincoln admirers have claimed that he no longer concerned himself with repatriating Blacks out of America after the Civil War. However, Phillip Maggess and Sebastian Page, the authors of the book Colonization After Emancipation: Lincoln and the Movement For Black Resettlement, have used documents from the British and U.S. National archives to prove that until the last moments of his life,

Abraham Lincoln has been foisted on the world as the Savior of Blacks in America, that he fought the Civil War in order to free Black slaves, but is this true?  Media propaganda like the movie Abraham Lincoln: Vampire Hunter and Stephen Spielberg's Lincoln movie have sought to rewrite history. The paradox that was Lincoln lies in the fact that he made statements that depict his sympathy for the suffering of Black slaves; on the other hand he also made statements that can clearly be construed to be deeply racist and offensive. The irony, however, is that the Emancipation Proclamation did not free the slaves and neither was the American Civil War fought in order to emancipate slaves. As we shall see, the war was fought mainly because of economic reasons.

president during the American Civil War and is widely credited with abolishing slavery and keeping the Union intact. The American Civil War was not fought to free Blacks. Whites have never fought to free Blacks. On the contrary they have fought wars to subjugate and enslave Blacks. Even countries like Britain abolished slavery not because of any deep-seated morality but because, among other things, their society had entered a phase of  industrialization and the manufacture of machines that required less slaves.
Aylmer Von Fleischer (The Abraham Lincoln Deception: The President Who Never Set Slaves Free And Did Not Want Blacks in America)
made slavery legal. They called their nation the Confederate States. A major reason the Southern States decided to secede from the Union was because they felt they were being economically taken advantage of by the Northern States. The Southerners were mostly agricultural planters while the Northerners came from a more industrialized society. The Southerners wanted to sell their goods (such as cotton,rice, tobacco and sugar) directly to the Europeans and thereby hold on to a bigger share of the profit. But the Northerners served as the middlemen; the biggest banks were located in the Northern States and thus the Northerners were able to provide the loans and investments. Economic independence of the Southern States would have impoverished the North, just as the abolition of slavery would have impoverished the Southern States. Lincoln therefore wanted to preserve the Union among other things. The Southerners, avowed racists, moreover wanted to massively expand the slave territory by including all the territory located to the south of the Rio Grande and including Cuba as well. J.A. Rogers

Senator Douglas said during his debates with Old Abe that America “ …was built by White men, for the benefit of White men and to their posterity forever,” and that “… citizenship should only be conferred upon White people and to people of European descent, and not upon Negroes, Indians and other inferior races.” Lincoln said when he was accused of trying to bring about the equality of the White and Black races: I will say then that I am not, nor ever have been, in favor of bringing about in any way the social and political equality of the white and black races—that I am not, nor ever have been, in favor of making voters or jurors of Negroes, nor of qualifying them to hold office, nor to intermarry with white people; and I will say in addition to this that there is a physical difference between the white and black races which I believe will forever forbid the races living together on terms of social and political equality. And inasmuch as they cannot so live, while they do remain together there must be the position of superior and inferior, and I, as much as any other man, am in favor of having the superior position assigned to the white race (Speech at Charleston, Illinois, 1858).
