“People in POWER are so ALLERGIC TO PEACE.” – Chris Brown

“Why can’t our leaders just sit down, talk like adults, and come to a decision for the sake of humanity?

Deep down, ordinary people don’t want these wars. Families don’t want to bury their children. Parents don’t want to watch their homes turn into rubble. No one wakes up hoping their country will be bombed or their future destroyed.

Yet somehow, the people who hold the most power seem to be the most allergic to peace.

Instead of diplomacy, we see escalation.
Instead of dialogue, we see threats.
Instead of compromise, we see destruction.

It’s heartbreaking to watch leaders choose pride, politics, and power games over human lives.

Millions suffer while powerful people sit in rooms drawing lines on maps and deciding the fate of entire nations.

And at the end of the day, it’s not them who bleed.

It’s ordinary people.

Children lose their childhoods.
Families lose their homes.
Communities lose entire generations.

All while the world keeps asking the same simple question:

Why is peace always the hardest option for those in power?

Chris Brown recently vented his frustrations about the ongoing wars and global conflicts, echoing what many people around the world feel — that humanity deserves better than endless cycles of violence and destruction.

Sometimes the loudest truth is also the simplest one:

Peace should never be harder than war.” 🌍

. The "African" Era in the USA (Late 1700s – Early 1800s)
During the period of enslavement, free Black communities in the North used "African" as a term of pride and heritage. They saw themselves as a distinct people in exile. Key organizations include:
• Free African Society (1787): The first Black mutual aid society in Philadelphia.
• African Methodist Episcopal (AME) Church (1816): Founded by Richard Allen, it remains one of the largest Black institutions in the world.
• African Grove Theatre (1821): The first Black theater company in the U.S.
• **Abyssinian Baptist Church (1808): Named after "Abyssinia" (Ethiopia), honoring African roots.
2. The Post-Slavery Shift (1865 – 1900s)
After 1865, there was a strategic shift in naming. As newly freed people sought full citizenship and legal rights within the United States, the term "African" was often replaced by terms that emphasized their status as Americans.
Common naming conventions after slavery included:
• "Colored": Seen in the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People (NAACP), founded in 1909.
• "Negro": Used by Marcus Garvey’s Universal Negro Improvement Association (UNIA) in 1914 and the United Negro College Fund (UNCF).
• "Afro-American": Gained some traction in the late 19th century, notably with the National Afro-American League (1890).
3. Why did the name "African" decline for a century?
There were three primary reasons why fewer new organizations chose the name "African" immediately after 1865:
1. Claiming Citizenship: To combat the "Back to Africa" movements (which sought to deport Black people), many leaders felt that calling themselves "African" might undermine their claim to American constitutional rights.
2. The "American" Additive: Organizations began adding "American" to their titles to signal they were a permanent part of the U.S. fabric.
3. Societal Pressure: In the Jim Crow era, "Colored" became the standard legal and social designation used in both Black and white spaces.
4. The 20th Century Resurgence
The term "African" didn't make a major comeback in organizational naming until the Black Power Movement and the Pan-African movements of the 1960s and 70s (e.g., the African Heritage Studies Association).

What Trump and United States are doing in Venezuela to destabilize and overthrow President Nicolás Maduro is not new. It's part of a centuries-old, white supremacist playbook which includes a long, bipartisan pattern of destabilization targeting independent nations around the world. Democrats and Republicans alike have supported coups, assassinations, regime change, sanctions, and political imprisonment. The driving force behind these actions is not democracy. It is white supremacy operating through empire.

This pattern spans the globe. The record is documented. This is not conspiracy. It is policy.

Here is a basic list of Black, Caribbean, and African leaders removed or neutralized with U.S. involvement:

Africa
• Patrice Lumumba (DR Congo) assassinated after CIA backed destabilization
• Kwame Nkrumah (Ghana) overthrown in a CIA supported military coup
• Thomas Sankara (Burkina Faso) assassinated in a coup backed by foreign interests aligned with the U.S. and France
• Amílcar Cabral (Guinea Bissau) assassinated amid intelligence interference during the liberation struggle
• Samora Machel (Mozambique) died in a suspicious plane crash during Cold War destabilization
• Muammar Gaddafi (Libya) overthrown and killed following U.S. led NATO intervention
• Nelson Mandela (South Africa) imprisoned with assistance of U.S. intelligence providing information to apartheid authorities

Caribbean
• Maurice Bishop (Grenada) executed during a coup immediately preceding U.S. invasion
• Michael Manley (Jamaica) politically neutralized through U.S. backed economic warfare and covert operations
• Fidel Castro (Cuba) targeted by numerous CIA assassination and overthrow attempts
• Jean Bertrand Aristide (Haiti) democratically elected and removed twice with U.S. involvement

Black America
• Malcolm X assassinated under intense FBI and CIA surveillance
• Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. assassinated while targeted by COINTELPRO
• Fred Hampton killed in an FBI coordinated police raid
• Huey P. Newton systematically neutralized through COINTELPRO
• Assata Shakur targeted through imprisonment, exile, and permanent state repression

Today, those same white supremacist forces are actively working to undermine the sovereignty of Burkina Faso, Mali, and Niger. These nations are being targeted through sanctions, diplomatic isolation, proxy pressure, and media warfare for rejecting Western domination and asserting control over their resources and futures.

White supremacy is not confined to one political party and it is not confined to one race. It is a global system of power. Many Black and Brown elites have defended or benefited from this violence for money, access, and prestige. That truth must be confronted.

Understand this clearly.
The same white supremacist forces destabilizing Venezuela are destabilizing Africa.
The same forces destabilizing Africa are the same forces destabilizing Black communities inside the United States.

Economic sabotage, political repression, surveillance, propaganda, and militarization are connected.
This is one system.
This is one struggle.
And it is all connected.

Their tactics never change. Why is it that the global majority (85% Black and Brown people) struggles to counter a global minority of less than 15% who wreak disproportionate chaos and destruction throughout the entire world? Will 2026 be any different?
