A Brief History of North American Slavery

A Brief History of North American Slavery

In the modern debate about United States history some have attempted to rewrite history and seemingly refocus it upon a culture of selective grievance study. Instead of a neutral assessment with context and substantial evidence these advocates have opted to employ ideology by promoting the censorship of opposing facts and scholars. There are huge periods of history absent from many supposedly insightful texts and reports in the media likely because they do not serve the narrative some want portrayed. Often such personalities mixing social justice with academics will assume they are eminent moral authorities but fail to make factually verifiable arguments that do not rely partially on ideology. We must now ask what have they left out of their historical narrative and is what they claim a full account of how the injustice of slavery began in America?

The Ghost of Speculations Future

The Ghost of Speculations Future

Enduring historical matters generate significant attention which often inspires certain people to declare improbable stories that cast them as pivotal to history. Claims of royal lineage, tales of secret magical knowledge, and supposed insider knowledge repeatedly are the basis for hucksters to manipulate the public. The assassination of President John F. Kennedy offers no shortage of dishonest official actors but these former leaders are not the only challenge to ascertaining facts. There are opportunists in the public with a great appetite for perceived authority, financial gain, and similar to prior mentioned leaders they assert nearly anything without facts because they also claim to possess some truth or insight unavailable to those who require evidence. Yet how can anyone expect most in the public to believe them without any demonstrable basis to do so?

Our Desire to Judge Others

Our Desire to Judge Others

Humans are ever assessing the physical characteristics and statements of others which can generate emotional responses when someone encountered rejects a different person’s appearance or behavior. Insults and hyperbolic words are generally employed to demonize many others inaccurately because a part of their appearance or ideology does not conform to that of the accuser. As history seemingly is repeating itself in this period of renewed tribalism via cultural battles some are intentionally misrepresenting opponents and practicing willful ignorance to bolster their ideological arguments. While new problems have manifest in the modern age, several are just evolved versions of prior dilemmas and that a unified society can overcome in time. However, unity is a rare modern commodity due to most influential groups maintaining position and status by dividing others and this negative strategy is a powerful one…

New Book Faces Human Violence and Aggression

New Book Faces Human Violence and Aggression

Violence has always been with us since the beginning of the human species because aggressive behavior is both a danger and defense that can allow humans to oppress their competitors or prevent such tyranny. With the growing hyperbole of national politics fueled by obsessive internet usage and the drastic reduction of human interaction, some are becoming emotionally detached and violently lashing out. Outrage dominates public discourse as factions demand censorship and some are too engrossed in unimportant conflict or entertainment to observe the ongoing calamity. Perhaps some just do not care anymore and that apathy is a dire problem for everyone. "Human Time Bomb: The Violence Within Our Nature" by C.A.A. Savastano poses important questions, offers substantial evidence, considers how violence has shaped the path of human history, and presents ideas about what might be done to reduce it ongoing effects.

Other Men in Mexico City II

Other Men in Mexico City II

According to United States officials just months before they accused Lee Harvey Oswald of assassinating President John F. Kennedy he went to Mexico during the end of September. Intelligence leaders would assume these purported visits were connected to later events, despite that Oswald did not yet work at the Texas Schoolbook Depository and they neglected to account for the parade route not being established until mid-November. Without that foreknowledge provided by another party Oswald cannot perceive the endgame of all these various actions occurring later. Taken by itself the incidents in Mexico City attributed to Lee Harvey Oswald are without direct connective evidence a possible occurrence unto themselves without links to subsequent events beyond Oswald’s alleged visits. The focus of US intelligence regarding Oswald reasonably dominates most inspections but the actions of Soviet and Cuba groups regarding this peculiar historical figure are often less reviewed…

Other Men In Mexico City

Other Men In Mexico City

Despite the extensive reviews of governments, legal experts, researchers, and members of the public some controversial topics of discussion still lay entangled within historical shadows. The scene and occurrence of the crime is of primary concern but in some cases the crucial related events span not just a given time and place but great distances that add further problems to discerning verifiable facts. A different nation, different cultures, and languages can provide almost insurmountable challenges to investigators who are unprepared for them. In some cases, it may be that certain groups and leaders counted on this fact to occlude a complete accounting and spare mistakes or deception from being revealed. While officials might currently discount and reproach members of the public for spurring on myths or rumors, these lies are within the very tools of the intelligence trade. Such means were repeatedly utilized by several intelligence groups and in Mexico City during the nineteen sixties and some of those deceptions persist…
