"How to Recover From the Addiction to White Supremacy"

In this work, Marvin X lays down the blueprint for freedom from internalized racism and uses the twelve steps. He debunks the chief component of powerlessness and correctly states "we are not powerless over anything… nothing has power over you except when you allow it to have such."

Much like Dr. Carter G. Woodson's "Miseducation of the Negro" Marvin begins by defining white supremacy in that recovery groups miss-educate blacks to accept injustice as part of the process but as Marvin details here:

"For it is one thing to detox and recover, We have found in drug recovery that many persons will recover, but go no further in their consciousness. Thus, they have a new addiction called recovery; one could say it is their religion since it now consumes their entire lives, which consist of attending meetings. They are most often negative and see no need to become social activist, even though Dr. Fanon and Dr. Hare tell us the only way to regain their mental equilibrium is by joining the movement of their people.”

Chapter five has a very frank, compelling Truth and Reconciliation admission that tempts one to rush to judgment. Purchase the book just to read that one chapter, it's well worth it!

  1. How ironic; Since I was 10 yrs old I've cleansed my face with Black and White Soap made by a company in Tennessee. My grandmother who died at tha young age of 102 yrs started using this soap in her 50's. That is how I started using tha soap and ointment.

    Recently I went to Walgreens 2 replenish my stock 2 find that the only product they carry is tha bleaching cream also manufactured by tha company. I contacted tha manufacturer to find that tha buyer of Walgreens discontinue tha soap and only wanted tha bleaching cream. I am placing an order with tha manufacturer just to continue my skin care treatment.

    The bleaching cream if used improperly causes cancer. It purpose is cosmetic. The face has 3 skin tones and for ppl who are concerned with appearances this product was produced. If U use tha soap regularly it blends Ur skin tone withou bleaching tha discoloured areas.
