Who Really Has Power in Gary Indiana? An All Black City Council and Mayor Ineffective at Getting Electricity Restored for Nearly 3 Weeks in 80% Black City Controlled by Elite Whites

[MORE] BLACKS NOT VOTING HARD ENOUGH? Sleeping Toms may hallucinate that cities like Gary, Memphis, Baltimore, Atlanta and DC are not actually run by white liberals but are in fact run by Black elected officials. In reality however, Black people function as “the powerless class” and generally speaking are in charge of nothing independently of elite white liberals. Neely Fuller observes that ‘in spite of all statements black people may make about themselves having economic and/or political independence and the like, in the final analysis, they are all victims of the white supremacy process.’

According to Neely Fuller in a White Supremacy System the most accurate way to describe what "class" people are in is to describe their power relationship to each other. In their relationship with whites, Blacks cannot be be "upper" or "middle" - but only under whites in a white over Black operating system of vast unequal power. Fuller accurately explains, "in a socio-material system dominated by elite whites, all major decisions involving non-white people are made by elite whites. In general, elite whites are their bosses, their masters, and their major decision-makers. Whatever a Black person gets, and/or is allowed to keep, is the result of decisions made by elite whites. This is the functional meaning of White Supremacy (Racism) that many people — particularly Black people — prefer not to acknowledge. Dr. Bobby Wright explains, 'everywhere one finds Whites and Blacks living in close proximity to each other, whether it is Chicago or Zimbabwe, the whites are in control. Yet Blacks rarely question this extraordinary universal phenomenon which defies every known statistical law of probability.' In liberal jurisdictions, such as Gary Indiana, elite white liberals control and own all major resources (such as banks, local mainstream media, real estate, utilities and large corporate resources etc), anything of material value and generally make all the meaningful decisions in regards to Black residents. As such, elite whites are the direct or indirect masters of Black people in all areas of people activity. This necessarily includes controlling and directing the power of the local government, funding its elected officials campaign coffers and controlling “choices” presented to the votary.

There are no local governments in existence run by Black politicians on behalf of powerful Black elites, powerful Black corporations, powerful Black mainstream media or a powerful Black votary. It is fantasy for blacks to imagine that a black puppetician such as Muriel Bowser, the mayor of DC, is controlling D.C. on behalf of powerful Black interests who pull the strings behind the scenes or that powerful Black voters have concentrated their power into the white Mayor of Memphis and are really the ones calling the shots– especially when it is undisputed that those who own or control major real estate, industry, corporate businesses, banks, wealth and material resources are overwhelmingly elite whites.
