He will get his library, and photos with the other skull and bones nutjobs... but come the revolution, will his library still be standing ??? they have gone to far with this spying shyte ...funny it took an african american to destroy civil liberties and freedom , and go bow down to china for money ...

Despite the hype, Obama's presence in office is one of the only reasons this country hasn't exploded into revolution yet.

He's African-American to the extent that his father was African (maybe) and he has lived in America for most of his life. He shares the experience of having darker skin in this country which informs his race-based sensitivities. He does not share the multi-generational history and genetic trauma of the bulk of Black Americans.

From the revolutionary war to the civil war to vietnam, to the Civil Rights and Decolonization Freedom movements, Blacks in America and abroad have fought and died for freedom.

Because he has been in office, Black Americans have not been in the streets. Because they have not been in the streets, despite the fact that they, we, are worse of materially now than at any point of time in modern American history, the day to day illusion that everything is alright has been preserved. But things are bad and getting worse for every demographic. And there is no resolution in sight. Things will not get better with a Democratic or a Republican come next election cycle. And Blacks in America will not sit still much longer.

When you have nothing to lose, you have everything to gain.

Credo Mutwah's poem is a paen to the divine kingship on a par meaning-wise with Shakespeare's work, tragic and transcendent. He is evoking much more than mere words can convey. The beauty and tragedy of this period, the pride and the sorrow of situation, of powers moving ponderously and inevitably toward a foreshadowed conclusion that is not the end, but a new beginning. If Obama is martyred in the next two years as Credo implies?

Our nation will change that day.

An update on this thread after all these years. A few weeks ago I was contacted by David Icke's filmmaker Christianne van Wijk to ask if I had any archive video of Credo Mutwa that I'd not published myself — scenes of his house and the small local village, our journey there, conversations between myself and David, and so on. David had asked Christianne to start working on a new documentary about Credo's life.

Via a friend of mine who was traveling to Europe last month, I was able to send her a disk containing some 680 Gb of raw video. She's just replied, having just received the disk:

From what I've seen so far, you've filmed some incredible stuff. I'm so pleased we can start putting the doco together.
