All societies have a period of birth, development, decline, regression back into the society that produced it,
then death and rebirth in the next higher form of society. The present United States of America went through at least
13 stages of development to reach its present level of maturity. Africans in the Americas developed within the context
of this general societal process. In 1441 European feudalism was in a stage of decay during its initial period
of mass intercontinental invasion, pillage, ad conquest. This agrarian system had gone through its natural process of
birth, development, decline, decay, and regression back into slavery. Starting in 1492, invading whites destroyed indigenous
Chechimecan societies. In the process the lands were cleared of their indigenous populations via massacres, wars, genocide,
diseases, being worked to death, and mass herding onto reservations. White populations were then mass transported and
transplanted onto North American soil. It was during the time of 1441 to 1619 that enslavement by Europeans
of nonwhites was exported around the world and particularly in what became the United States. Europeans transported/transplanted
their society, culture, and race. They set up settlements, then colonies, states, united confederations of states, and
then national federation of states called the United States of America. African populations were seized, captured,
kidnapped, mass transported, and enslaved for the purpose of being worked to death draining swamps, building bridges and roads,
cutting trees and bushes, planting and harvesting food and fiber, clearing debris, building houses, making clothes, cutting
weeds, washing, tending cattle, cooking, cleaning, digging, pulling plows, mining mineral resources, sex concubines, shoveling
manure, tending to white children, breeding, plowing, etc. All of this was done for the benefit of white society as
a whole and white capitalist and slave owners in particular. Over 600,000,000 lived and died as causalities of
this 500 year period of death and destruction caused by Arabs, whites and collaborating African ruling classes. The Holocaust
of African enslavement caused at least 42 million Africans to live and die enslaved in what became North America (1619-1866). Between 1619 and 1700 the US had two economic systems operating on one continental land mass: (slavery) agricultural
manual production in the south based on enslaved African labor, and (capitalism) industrial mechanical production in the north
based on white wage labor. Both shiped what the African produced to the white mother/settler countries in Europe. This
was their economy: stealing land, working to death Africans, trading what the African produced. This formula worked from Cuba,
Peru, Brazil, Mexico, Jamacia to the 13 colonies of the soon to be United States. From 1700 to 1750 there was minimal
reciprocal economic exchange between the southern plantation economy and the European industrial economy; more raw materials
were extracted in the south by enslaved African labor and very few refined products produced in Europe were transported
back to the south. What was transported went back to the slave master. There was no southern homemarket.
However this exchange increased over time, thereby forging a strong political bond that endured even after breaking ties
with England in 1776. By 1791, there was a supreme law of the land governing north America; a slave constitution,
a bill of rights for whites (mainly property owners), two economies (north-capitalism, south-slavery), one nation-United States
of America, English values/language/dress, Greco-Roman cultural legacy/foundation, complete white male rule, hegemony of slave
ruling class in congress/courts/legislature. Blacks were to slave and be enslaved from crib to grave. They had
no rights to life, liberty or the pursuit of happiness. Chechimecans, (Indian/ Native Americans) were to be robbed of
their land, exterminated or herded onto reservations (target: the worst possible land to live on).
It was during
the timeframe 1820-1860 that these two antithetical economic systems grew, developed, geographically interpenetrated, clashed,
tried to compromise their differences, but eventually ended up in Civil War. By 1866, The North and capitalist form
of society defeated the South and the slave form of society.
From 1866 to 1985 the entire country went
through a period of industrialized reconstruction along capitalist lines continentally implementing significant advances in
large scale machine production (mechanical, semi-automated, automated, computer automated) until reaching a period when computers
replace humans in the societal production equation. That process is reflected in the growth, development, maturation,
and emerging degeneration of the US capitalist form of society.
African populations in the Americas emerged
within these social, cultural, political, and economic conditions.
Development of the U.S. Capitalist Form of Society (F-SL-C) FEUDALISM - 1492
Intense Invasion of Northern
Hemisphere by Columbus: The European feudalist societies were in crises; had gone throughout the process of birth, growth,
development, decline, and were in the process of dying and regressing back into the society that produced feudalism and
slavery. Slavery was imposed on whites by whites in the form of indentured slavery, then on Africans and non-whites after
the period of invasion and conquest. Mass transportation of white conquests from conquistadors searching for gold to seize
was expedited. The Arawak Indians welcomed Christopher Columbus while he took them prisoner and attempted to enslave them.
A massive process of genocide began with butchery, burning at the stake, looting, rape, and pillage as a primary means of
exterminating the people from the land. This opened the door for Portuguese, French, Dutch, Jewish, Arab, Russian, Prussians,
Scottish, Swedish, Danish, and English invasions around the world. Genocide of Indians continued.
English Invasion
In Jamestown, Invasion of North America Follows:
1492-1607 - Indentured servants produced
labor. Settlers attempted to enslave Indians, but this failed because they died due to exposure to European diseases and inhumane
conditions.
1619 - 1700 - System of Economic development based on African labor and
stolen Chechimecan lands brought massive enslavement of Africans to produce goods in the southern economy. The indentured
slaves failed because slave labor was more profitable. The servants teamed with landowners to steal land from the Indians.
CAPITALISM: 1700-1750The formation of
Transitional Capitalist\Slave Government Structure: The goods were transferred to the northern colonies and then exported
to England. Wealth from exports was concentrated in the North. Capitalism developed in the North. The northern economy grew
and the southern economy began to shrink without the wealth from the exports.
CAPITALISM: 1750-1775
Transplanted White British American Colonies
Broke From Brittan And The Revolutionary War Was Fought Over Stolen Land, Enslaved Africans, And Representative Government:
War was organized, class war, over stolen land, kidnapped/enslaved Black labor, taxation
on commodities Blacks produced for free and class representation. Declaration of Independence
was written against Feudalist England and the King George; Millions of Africans and Chechimecans
are forced into slavery and are being worked to death each day. Land theft (millions of square miles stolen). Democracy
for slave owning white men rich from the profits accumulated breeding and selling children, among other thing. Justice and equality meant: white, capitalist/slave owners, male. Weapons
were bought from other white allies. in Europe. War was planned/conducted by capitalist
central committee headed by George Washington. Global conditions were favorable for victory.
British American colonies seized the opportunity; win, prepare self government documents. Continental Congress, constitution, articles of confederation, federal government, executive, legislative,
and judicial, courts. Africans are enslaved by the millions; bred, brutalized, raped, mutilated,
jailed, lynched, mass murdered---all sanctioned, defended, and often carried out by the state. Slavery
written into the constitution. Africans have no life, liberty or the pursuit happiness.

CAPITALISM: 1776 to 1790
U.S.
Capitalist Form of Government is Established: The Constitution was written by capitalist white men who enslaved African
women, men and children. The nation was built on the constitutionally defined inferiority of Africans, Chechimecans, and women.
Agreement between the two economies (slavery in the South and capitalism in the North) was established. The Federal Constitutions
served as models of state constitutions.
Slave Labor Brings Great Wealth To The Colonies:
1791-1820. The two economies N/S grow wealthy under one agreed upon political structure with
African enslavement being the primary means for white economic wealth, while theft of Chechimecan lands was the basis for
everything else. Bred children, sell children, work them to death when they are old enough. Millions of Africans were worked
to death each year pulling plows, digging mines, draining swamps, building bridges, and roads, planting and harvesting, cutting
weeds, building homes, cooking, cleaning, tending cattle and other things. Africans literally built the economic infrastructure
of the United States in its infancy.
Economic Relations Became Antagonized As The Northern
Economy Grew While Southern Economy Shrank: 1820 -1855. The wealth stopped in the North and it became less dependant
on the southern economy. Without its own home market the southern economy began to suffer. The industrial revolution began
in the North; wage labor, white men, organized in textile mills, with mechanized tools and simple water moved machines. Africans
erupt in rebellion. White decadence increases. Millions of Africans are bred, replacing the mass shippings from Africa
and the Caribbean.
The Southern Economy Ended When Lincoln Abolished Slavery. As A Political
Move To Save The Union: 1859 - 1866. The modern capitalist system began to emerge based on the industrial revolution.
Maturation of the industrial revolution was concentrated in the North. A crises arose between the northern wage labor and
southern enslaved labor economies with the battle over western farmland taking center stage. The south broke from the union
and the Civil War ensued. North had the numbers, guns, cannons, balloons, size, mountain regions. Time was also on their
side. Africans fought on both sides. The northern Africans (having left the south) were the deciding factor.
North won, lied to the Blacks, put them back on farms in semi-slavery (share-cropping) under capitalism.
Reconstruction Period: 1866 - 1929. The south was reorganized as a Capitalist economy under
the industrial lines. After reconstruction of the white country, the Klan was turned loose on Blacks by the government.
Blacks are terrorized, lynched, and mass murdered for half a century. Industrialization created a migration from rural
areas to urban centers, farms to factories, south to north, plantations to ghettos. Semi-automation, glut, economic depression,
collapse of production, distribution, and consumption spheres.
The Slave Economy Disappeared
and The Capitalist Economy Survived WWI and WW2: 1929 - 1954. The economy emerged into mechanical industrial production
after World War 1 and then to semi-automated production after World War 2. The economic boom after World War 2 created a demand
for more labor. This is the basis of the Civil Rights Movement, desegregation, integration, and black capitalism.
Social Advancement For Minorities and Women As The Economy Continued To Grow: 1955 - 1977.Black
labor needed; their wages had to be spent some where: white businesses, schools, houses, churches, restaurants, malls, buses,
food, clothing, etc. Period of economic expansion reaches high point, then the economy began to contract in the 1980's.
Civil Rights Act gives voting rights; white women benefit most. Blacks graduate to obsolete semi-automated factory production;
whites graduate to automated machine and office production and service. Blacks move into houses and leftover infrastructure whites
leave; whites move into new houses, schools, churches, offices, factories, etc financed by government grants, loans, and set-asides.
Over 19 trillion is made by capitalists. Blacks remain 3 times poorer than whites. By 1977, token quotas to chosen
Blacks, limited affirmative action, and small set asides become under attack.
Computer
Growth Automated Machine Production Began To Replace Unskilled Labor: 1980- Present. Economic growth ceased in the
1980's and constant wages have been stagnant through the 1990's although the economy expanded based on credit, robot
productivity, and computerized service labor. Computer automated machine production has replaced the demand for human labor.
The production process is interrupted before consumption. End of affirmative action. Desegregation to non-violent integration to
Black power to Afrocentrism to African Centered---the embryo of the emerging African Renaissance is unfolding.
Credit has become the medium of exchange as job insecurity has increased, so have neo-fascist political movements and hate
crimes. By 2007+, education, health care, housing, employment, retirement benefits, social services, recreation are
all cut. Foreclosures, car repossessions, stock-market crises, school mass layoffs, accelerated prison building,
repressive Patriot Act, reactionary supreme court decisions, emerging underground Nazi movement equal fascist dictatorship,
genocide, extermination, handing of state power to Nazis by conservatives.
