Problems in The Plantation Educational System in Omaha
M,A, Yah Talks about the Black Leaders in Omaha NE and their Uncle Tom behaviors.
Suzanne responds to a series of questions about the transgender issues in Omaha, NE, and the providential mentality that ignores the reality of individuals' lives. We also cover the level of racism in the transgender community and its unwillingness to embrace others in the African American community. The participants raised questions and topics for future consideration.
African women from various countries talk about patriarchal and sexist culture in their circles.
Merapelo Letebele, Selalelo Program Coordinator, interviews African women who have unfiltered conversations about their treatment in various countries. They also challenge male chauvinism in the 21st century in African nations. They also make the argument that the treatment of women is akin to the enslavement of Blacks. As they discuss such roles, they aim to help women achieve parity and equity in these societies and communities and stop the oppression of women by misogynist men.
Kamau N'Namdi talk about the racism in Omaha Nebraska dealing with his private property lots.
Mr. Kamau N'Namdi traveled to Omaha to expose the racist personalities of the local government. We have Kangaroo Courts, but Nebraska's property protest dances will shame other cities. The board of equalization conducted 60 protest hearings in 90 minutes and did not decide in favor of any of the city's residents. What a waste of time dealing with public functionaries and friends of the system. These clowns like playing the role of reverse Robin Hood and working in our hood.

Conversations with Cheryl Weston Featuring A’Jamal Byndon
We invite you to watch the program dealing with challenges in the community on the nonprofit industrial complex. We have too many agencies with incompetent executive directors and racist CEOs who have rarely engaged African American families. Many of these great white saviors have no interest in the elimination of poverty because they consider it their cash cow. We only need to stand outside of the doors of these nearly boarded-up community agencies. If one looks at the end of their year report, there is not much occurring in these poverty-pimping organizations.
We might disagree on the merits of our arguments, but can the Omaha Plantation School demonstrate empirical data that the educational and achievement gaps between African Americans and whites have narrowed in recent years? Most national reports illustrate that COVID-19 illustrated the digital divide, and many students' achievement levels fell. Can the racist research Omaha Plantation Schools department, with its white supremacy mentality, demonstrate any report or data that illustrates that they care?
The same goes for the high or disproportionate number of youth of color in the juvenile justice system in Douglas County, YRTC, and the child welfare system. We have a Nebraska Children Commission that is just another bureaucrat state government organization with no meaningful outcome or involvement of African Americans and the Chicano Community. We waste more public funds on functionaries who spend excessive time discussing contrived issues but have yet to bust a grape on the enormous issue that affects People of Color, particularly African Americans.
The University of Nebraska administration recently cut thousands of dollars from its Diversity, Equity, and Inclusive Program (DEI). We won’t miss anything from them because they are packed full of Daughters of the Confederacy, White Supremacy personalities, and apologist collaborators type folks who have no social capital to speak truth to power against their fiends of the system.

THE STATUS OF HISTORICALLY UNDERREPRESENTED STUDENTS OF COLOR AT THE UNIVERSITY OF NEBRASKA, OMAHA: INDICATORS OF RACIAL INEQUITY

MORE STATEMENT OF PURPOSE
We are working on a report on the effectiveness of these civil rights organizations, such as the city’s Omaha Human Rights and Relations Department, in addressing their mission. It’s come to our attention that they have little to no empirical data on the success of addressing racism, and historical discrimination and, most of all, engaging communities of Color with the transformation of the problems into reasonable solutions. When a public fund organization does work have little or any social capital with oppressed African Americans and other People of Color, it is time to ask for change. What good are third-string quarterbacks who can’t play in the Superbowl of anti-racism? Can we point to one success story and whom they helped in the valley of the struggle that can offer testimonials to outcomes?
Got any questions regarding anti-racism, race equity, or community advocacy but have never seemed to be able to get any answers? Or incidents handled by Nebraska Equal Opportunity Commission , Nebraska Urban League, or any government funded organizations. -
