Dembele
I am not unfamiliar with the reasoning that the bible is the story of black people and black people alone. I am aware of the tribalism that Bible God especially of the Old Testament displayed and Gods clear preference for Israel. Yes. Jah people vs gentiles, yes.
Even if you see the gentile as an enemy you are licensed to shit on and do whatever with one must also remember the EXAMPLE of Haile Selassie. Recall his treatment of his enemies, in time of war he slaughtered them, after the war he spared them their life and sent many Italians unharmed back to their home. His Majesty example, which is HIGHER than any bible reference because it doesn’t have to go back thousands on years for it to be referenced, shows HUMILITY. Selassie I the Almighty I was a HUMBLE LION.
Lastly, one must never forget Africa. If you have found comfort in Tenerife I will argue it is still Babylon. Africa, the Horn of Africa, central Africa and so on, is and will always remain the cradle of civilisation and home place of Jah people. This can’t be replaced by an offshoot inbetween North Africa and Spain. We will remember that Ethiopianism, to the core, fueled everything from Garvey to Howell.
With everything else, mind how you go.
