If you afraid nigga say you afraid.

from Curtis Mayfield to Bob Marley to PE to Boots to ... living colour to bad brains... black people have always made problack music.

You see blues was nothing more than conscious problack music.
Gospel is nothing more than conscious problack music.
Jazz greats would explain that during their era of censorship, Jim Crow, and white supremecy, that Jazz was problack music speaking on the troubles of people of color.
In other words... black people have ALWAYS made problack music.
It's fairly sensible considering you would have to have an alternate view of your people or agenda to support or to make music that would counter your own neighborhoods, families, and support systems.

Jimi Hendrix has a wonderful piece called Black Gold...where he clearly explains that people of color are the fathers of this earth... and the barers of light, wonderfully creative people caught up in turmoil.

If you were a sucker for any movement and you weren’t sincere to it… then that’s your natural order.
You might be
The cat who had on timbs and a tissue up your nose when redman was hot..
That nigga with a gun and skullcap when NWA was out…
I maintain… anyone who was concered about consciousness that was serious in 89… will be serious in 09…
Anyone who shifted gears in 93 probably shifted gears in 03.
you might be that cat right now with a Blazer and a Fitted on...
thinking your fresh...

That was arguably the most potent period in hiphop as there was an agenda to the music. That climate during that period challenged younger writers and producers to not only think outside the box... but write music with content, substance, and demanding that you address the ills of our era. In a era that had no black leadership... it was hiphop that stepped up and played King, X,
In the words of the great Joe Strummer
“Today’s Revolution Music, is tomorrow’s pop”.

However… you have to have pop people to want pop music.
Nations of Millions to Hold Us Back and Fear of a Black Planet are two timeless gems that addressed the climate of this country during the late 80’s. I have always maintained that after the success of these albums there was a feverish attempt to counter it with work from Dre and Eazy. The fact that Eazy had the same lawyers as the lawyers who represented the cops who beat Rodney King, the fact that Eazy was in the Source defending the cops “if you look at the tape they were telling him to stay down, but the nigga wouldn’t listen”. The fact that Eazy was invited to the White House to have dinner with the Seth Lord himself… George Bush Sr. even taking a pic with him.
You see Jerry Heller who was the owner of Ruthless Records had a huge history in music.
He’s the man responsible for bringing Pink Floyd to the US for the very first time and as well as Elton John.
He was Marvin Gaye’s Manager from 1967-1972.
several things about Heller you don't know...

Is a teacher at UCLA for Entertainment Studies and Performing Arts. . . .

He is the first non-lawyer ever admitted to lecture at the Practicing Law Institute. . .???

Was manager to Ike and Tina Turner.

He was invited to the White House by two different presidents… Nixon and George Bush Sr.

Read that part again... Nixon and Bush... both worked closely with Kissinger. Now if you know anything about neutralizing and the operations of the CIA, then you know what this means.
I invite you to review the Heroine drug case of Jimi Hendrix in Toronto Canada...

Both of whom viewed popular music, rock music, and black music in general as national security threats.
Was this the downfall of ProBlack music? Who knows. Eazy was friends with Freeway Rick, the most notorious drug dealer out of Compton in the late 80’s and notably the man responsible for bringing CRACK to the black community thru the CIA.
Freeway Rick has explained how this work on many occasions.
Let’s discuss.

Assassination Politics of the Vietnam War period.

Former CIA Richard Ober, director of OPERATION CHAOS...
the most expansive domestic surveillance and covert ops net-work in America'shistory.
The intelligence sectors response to the anti-war and civil rights movements, ran covert
assassinations programs as well.
The Nixon administration rose on a foundation of political murder.
The C.I.A.had assembled a thick concordia of lethal methods.
The project began with an anonymous , undated memo on assassination by "natural cause."
Knock off key people the heavily censored document specified, " how to knock off key guys,
natural causes, a declassified memo..
1 Bodies left with no hope if the cause of death being determined by the most complete
autopsy and chemical examinations,
2 Bodies left in such circumstances as to simulate accidental death
3 Bodies left in such circumstances as to simulate accidental suicide
4 Bodies left with residue that simulate those caused by natural diseases.

CHAPTER 1 A Killing Field For The Heat

In 1967 a subversive form of music melded with politics in San Francisco.Thus,
destabilization tactics were summarized in a leaked memo, excerpt:
"show them as depraved" call attention to their habits, and every possible
embarrassment. Send articles to the newspaper showing their depravity. Use misinformation
to confuse and corrupt. Provoke target groups into rivalries that might result in death."

For the first time since it's creation the warfare state erected by the Dulles brothers,
Hoover, MacArthur, Kissinger, Nixon, etc. was threatened by an increasingly militant
segment of society.The FBI rose to the challenge.
On July 30, 1994, Intelligence files on Leonard Bernstein reveal the bureau spent
countless hours examining his links with associations deemed communist to subversive.

FBI agent Jane Moore said the FBI saw the strength and power of the idea of socialism,
realized it represented a very real danger to our profit-motivated corporate state andhad
declared total covert war against not only the denim clad revolutionaries but all
progressive forces
The bureaus tactic was to cut them down or burn them out before they realized their
potential.

At the federal level, the CIA. was already pursuing similar objectives under code name
Operation Chaos.

Targets of Chaos
Blank Panther Movement (Geronimo Pratt, jailed for 27 yrs. for murders he did not
commit. He was also a target of COINTELPRO, the FBI "counter-surveillance program"
Politically active hippies were also targets.Many underground papers were put out of
business when they were abandoned by advertisers who had been pressured by the FBI From
1967 to 1972 the operation compiled 13,000 files, which concerned 300,000 individuals and
organizations. The CIA directorate of operations created an index of 7 million names.

CHAPTER 2 The Machine Cia And Mob Influences On The Rock Industry

The mafia was to be enlisted for the covert war against the counter-culture. In the
mid-60's CHAOS officials and the mob both eyed the rise of political rock music. The CIA
saw them as long haired communists screaming for revolution and the end to the Vietnam
War. The mafia wanted more constrictive financial control over the recording industry. Top
40, the reigning broadcast format in America owes its very existence to the CIA and mafia
combo. Drugs would enter the equation, plus youth and LSD with the politics of heroin and
LSD drugs wereonly onecontribution the agency has made to the American culture.
The National Security Council was patterned after Hitler's security council , and its
jurisdiction was to oversee the CIA by dictate of the NSA of 1947.

CHAPTER 3 Parapolitical Stars In The Dope Show

Books were burned, book stores closed down, offices and social centers were broken into,
artists, writers, musicians and countless hippies got dragged into court., to answer
trumped up charges of corruption, obscenity, drug-abuse, and anything that might silence
their voices.LSD appeared on the streets, as if on cue to destroy student descent. More
potent drugs used in federally sponsored behavior modification studies (translates
mind-control) also found their way to society at large. STP created by Dow-Chemical Co. in
1964 was considered incapacitating agent by the CIA Emergency wards was choked in San
Francisco with freaking bohemians. PCP an animal tranquilizer, also fed to the hippies by
the CIA. The Mob opened mass production labs and a meticulously organized network of
traffickers to move black marketdrugs.
A CIA agent who claims to have infiltrated the covert LSD network, provided a clue when
he referred to Height-Asbury as a human guinea pig farm.A dozen years earlier in the same
city, George Hunter White and hisCIA colleagues had set up a "safe house" and began
testing hallucinogenic drugs on unwitting citizens. Now suddenly there was a neighborhood
packed with young people who were ready and willing to gobble experimental
chemicals.Charles Manson and Timothy Leary arrived in San Francisco and each had a keen
interest in mind-control.

Dulles mentioned in his memo that the agency was testing drugs on groups of people. CIA
personnel mingled with the drug dealers.. Monitoring stations were set up, among them was
Louis J West, Jack Ruby's shrink, West oversawDr Jose Delgado, author of Physical Control
of the Mind and Ross Addey, a veteran of operation Paperclip (Nazi's entry into CIA and
NASA and else where), Dr. Margaret Singer of the CIA created False Memory Syndrome. All
participated in the study of LSD as a politically destabilizing weapon. One CIA memo named
the drug as a potential new agent for unconscious warfare. In 1967 as CHAOS was launched
by CIA White House. Timothy Leary, tossed out of the army for erratic behavior, left
experimenting with LSD on prisoners in N.Y. for the CIA, and donned the robes of the
designated LSD media prelate. He later admitted to knowing at the time that some powerful
people in Washington have sponsored this drug research. Leary was constantly surrounded by
ops of intelligent agents.

CHAPTER 4 The death of Cass Elliot (of the Mamas and the Papas)and other restless youth

According to Mae Brussell, researcher, in 1968 orders went out to proceed to neutralize
segments of society. including those restless youth. By 1969 the SSS (Special Services
Section of the FBI), combined with the Justice department and with the CIA operation
Chaos.
Thus. Manson Murders, etc. Manson joined the Process church, a Satanist church, who also
worshipped Lucifer and Jehovah. It was (is) big in Hollywood at the time.(Manson clearly a
mind-controlled dupe).

One FBI report on Cass Elliot marked urgent states she attended a fund raiser in
Hollywood , for Peace and Justice. Cass had political ambitions and wanted to be a
senator, maybe, in 20 yrs or so. An underground paper called The Realist suggested Cass
was the target of political foul play. The editorPaul Krassner said, "I believe she might
have been killed. She knew a lot about the incredible criminal links between Hollywood and
Washington and Las Vegas.

CHAPTER 5 The Murder In The House Of Pooh, Brian Jones Of The Rolling Stones

. The fusion of music and politics made the stones an enemy of the state.There were
infiltrators and drug set-ups and busts thus, Jagger said " This is a protest against the
system, war stems from power-mad politicians and patriots, we must end all these mindless
men from seats of power, and replace them with real people, people of compassion." The
stones were stalked harassed and getting paranoid.
An odd construction crew came to restore the house of Brian Jones, the former cottage of
AA Milne, author of Pooh books. They muscled their way into hisprivate life, and had a
weird hold over Brian. One worker, Thorogood, made a death bed confession, that he had
drowned Wilson The tell-tale signs of cover-up by authorities are unmistakable. He was
off drugs at the time. his death was not caused by a life of abuse as was claimed, he was
murdered.

CHAPTER 6 The End Of Rock Festivals

Five Months later, a music festival happened near San Francisco, and became murderous.
The band would be forever tainted by the surreal violence..
Editor of Rolling Stone, Jan Wenner, put the Rolling Stones Band in touch with Melvin
Belli, attorney of California well-heeled conservative base, whose eulogy at his funeral
was, "a man of law against the CHAOS of life, a man ofCHAOS against the law of life." He
was one of CIA's most trusted court room wonders.Belli chose the Altamount for the Stones
concert. It had all the charm of a grave yard, and not fitto draw 300,000 people.! Ralph
Sonny Barger of the Hells Angels was hired to keep the peace, (an informant hit-man, who
was hired by feds to kill labor activist Cesar Chavez, but was arrested instead on an old
charge.)Hells Angels are represented in 18 countries now, largest crime family export. Who
in 1969 suspected the Hells Angels was a death squad in employ of the political agencies?
(a refreshing break from the status quo?)

At the Stone's concert the Hells Angels beat up on the youth to excited to seeJagger and
Leary arrive, an 18 year old girl was stabbed to death for allegedly having a gun, by the
Hells Angels. There ended up 3 dead and many wounded.. A Cancer Was Planted And Growing In
The Counter-Culture

CHAPTER 7 Jimi Hendrix Political Harassment And Murder

He didn't die from a drug overdose, he was not an out of control dope fiend. He was not
a junkie.
FBI COUNTELPRO was out to do more than prevent a communist menace, from overtaking the
U.S.! (or to control black power movement). It was out to obliterate its opposition and
ruin the representatives of the people involved in the anti-war movement, Civil Rights
Movement, and the rock revolution.

Hendrix manager, Mike Jeffery, by his own admission was an intelligence agent. He
frequently boasted he had powerful underworld connections.There were many mafia managed
"acts". The CIA/Mafia connection had exercised considerable influence in the music
industry for decades.Hendrix wanted out of the contract. He felt he was under surveillance
and felt more and more unsafe in New York, his former safe haven. His manager, thus, might
have created a Toronto arrest, to silence Jimi. He preferred him to be isolated. He had
always been a trusting and open person before, and now he didn't know who to trust.

He was getting 10 grand for a 50 grand concert.Hendrix friends said Jeffrey's would get
more money from a dead Hendrix than a living one. There was also a possiblemillion dollar
insurance policy in Jeffrey's name.

Was Hendrix murdered? The official cause of death was asphyxiation caused by vomit? The
pathologist report left the cause of death open. Monica Danneman (investigator), had long
insisted Hendrix was murdered. At the time of her own death, she had brought media
attention to the case in a letter and highly publicized court battle.Monica's body was
found in a fume-filled car near her home, in south England. It was called a suicide.

She had a lot of death threats, and people who knew her said "she didn't believe in the
concept of suicide"

CHAPTER 8 Death Of Jim Morrison, Lead Singer Of The Doors

Two years after the death of Brian Jones, Jim Morrison's body was found in a bath-tub in
his flat in Paris. Death was attributed to natural causes, possibly heart failure.Morrison
's political outbursts attractedthe FBI. He had said, " I like the idea about the breaking
away or over-throw of the established order." In another interview Manzerek (of the Doors)
considered possible motives for the elimination of the AnarchisticLizard King " they were
going to stop all rock and roll by stopping the Doors. He was considered the most
dangerous because he was saying . "We want the world and we want it NOW."
FBI harassment rendered Morrison so anxiety ridden that he had an ulcer by mid-twenties.
Paranoia struck deep and it was thought he was a marked man.Bob Seymore wrote a book re:
Jim called The End and conceded" you could say the CIA and the other intelligence agencies
may have had a hand in the deaths of Hendrix, Joplin and Morrison etc., simply because
they were the leaders of the generation of the 60's.

A book " The Bank of America in Louisiana" appeared in 1975, after his death, supposedly
written by Morrison. Some say he survived Paris and lived a life free from celebrity and
the FBI.A James Douglas Morrison, claimed to beoperating as an intelligence agent for a
number of groups including the CIA and Interpol, and also had connections with various
occult groups.ThisJM2 also claims to be the dead rock star. There are stacks of official
looking document, and letters between the agencies, CNN, NBC, and JM2. This claim was made
by researcher Thomas Lyttle who claims to have seen what looks like authentic documents.
There seems to be hundredsif not thousands of miscellaneous files under the name.No
autopsy was performed after his death, a probable violationof French law.Pamela Courson,
who was with him at the time, died later of an overdose that some said was a "Hot Shot" or
poisoned opiate.

CHAPTER 9 Joan Baez Phil Ochs

Joan Baez survived the Operation Chaos backlash, she fully understood that political assassination
could be her reward for openly castigating military-industrial masters of war. Her close
friend Martin Luther King Jr., the worlds most honored civil rights leader told her and a
group of activists before delivering his famed speech how the police had dumped him in the
hole and it was black and he couldn't see. They shoved food in the room but he wouldn't eat
it for fear it was poisoned , hungry and afraid he got on his knees and prayed and when he
got up he said it didn't matter anymore.
Kings entourage hid their pain when they knew what he meant." We knew he was going to
die, and he was ready to die, and he was ready to make a commitment to Vietnam etc"
He said, "I have been to the mountaintop and I have seen the Promised Land and it doesn't matter anymore."

Joan Baez wrote a memoir," And a Voice to Sing With", (1987) of her childhood and her
father as a bright young Stanford scientist "Albert Baez recognized the danger of the
unleashed atom even in the early days" He took a job at Cornell University in Ithica, New
York (Cornell is the base of CIA Mind Control experiments and Joan is a survivor of ritual
abuse and mind control experimentation, according to letters she has written to
researchers and other survivors) Many universities are common cover for trauma-based-mind-control programmi She has a song about it:.........

"I am paying for protection, Smoking out the truth...chasing recollections...nailing
down the roof"

Baez entertained no illusions about the CIA, and promoted State of Siege, film she saw
as exposing the corrupt element of AID (Agency for International Development, overseas),
which funded the teaching of techniques of torture tactics in Latin America. We solicited
signatures against the use of torture. Torture was made more prevalent than it had been
since the Middle Ages, thus the danger was its common use as government policy. The hands
of the US government were far from clean.

Joan did years of intensive therapy to confront her inner demons ,fears, insomnia, panic
attacks, phobias, anxieties, etc. Therapists kept Joan glued together, "to get me to the
next gig", she said.

Joan's father was invited to become the head of Operations at Cornell, which would bring
him in contact with CIA Human Ecology Foundation, (re: Academic Mind Control Studies)
that are behind the fences of the Ivy League campuses across the country. Joan said it was classified.. She was not buried by Chaos, but she lived under its intolerant eye and
it could silence her. An example is a mistranslation in Japanese re: her comments on Vietnam and Nagasaki.
The interpreter was threatened and complied....A year later sale of her records
were banned from all Army PXs and when she denounced the draft on the Smother's Brothers Hour,she was censored by CBS, her comments cut, and CBS cancelled the Brothers soon after.
The same year, her then husband, David Harris ,was sentenced to three years for draft evasion.

Civil rights activists were falsely linked to Communist organizations. A common smear
tactic.


Joan Baez And Bob Dylan Mimi Farina And Richard Farina.....................................

In 1961 Joan Baez met Bob Dylan. Whose songs had such stark political flavor. Bob
nearly died in 1966 after a motorcycle accident. Joan's brother-in-law Richard Farina did
die few months later in a motorcycle accident. It was suspicious and happened on his wife Mimi Farina's birthday He was on his way back from a promotional party for his book :
"Been Down So Long It Looks Like Up". Before his death he had been producing an album to be performed by Joan, it got shelved.


(Mimi Farina, sister of Joan, is an equally talented singer and politically active woman
who sings in prisons and goes out" hands on "to the poor people, last I heard, and I
think Joan's heart is also with the poor folk. Ms.Farina has organized groups to carry out these endeavours..).. (My Note)

After Dylan's accident he went thru a political change . He dropped the broadside lyrics
grating on the nerves of the establishment. Mark Edmundson wrote: "He wasn't ruined by
drugs. His work combines art and politics and the harshest truth about the world. He is a
visionary skeptic ,he loves the promise of America and yet is disgusted by much of its
reality."

His songs tell about the cane murder of black servant Hattie Carroll, the death of boxer
Davie Moore, the unbroken chains of injustice. They go to the heart of the decades most
recurring preoccupation ,that in a time of irreversible technical progress , moral
civilization has pathetically faltered, that no matter how much international attention is
focused on the macro-cosmic affairs, the plight of the individual must be considered.

Five years after the accident he wrote "George Jackson", a fiercely driven ballad about
the Black Panther leader " "George Jackson" who was murdered by a prison
guard.

Phil Ochs (The Out Law And His Brain) Mind Contro And MPD

"U.S. agents were able to destroy any persons reputation by inducing hysteria or
excessive emotional responses, temporary or permanent insanity, suggest or encourage
suicide , erase memory , invent double or triple personalities, inside ones
mind." ---quote by the late Mae Brussells, Operation Chaos investigator etc.
Ochs was a close chum of Bob Dylan, and thought Bob was the greatest poet ever.
Together with others they dragged folk music away from the migration camps and union halls and
into direct confrontation with the Eisenhower's looming military-industrial complex. Ochs
denounced the American politics in the "Cops of the world". song

" and when we've butchered your sons boys, have a stick of gum boys, we own half the
world...."OH CAN YOU SEE"? AND THE NAME OF OUR PROFITS IS DEMOCRACY.
He was the ultimate dissident song

" the comic and the beauty queen are dancing on the stage .The raw recruits are lining
up like coffins in a cage. Oh we are fighting in a war we lost before the war began"
Not long before he died, one night after too many drinks, he drew down the CIA Director
Wm. Colby, director of the murderous Phoenix Project in Vietnam. He claimed he put a
contract out on his life for 100,000 dollars. "I told Colby he's got a half of year to
live or get out of Vietnam or he is dead. They can kill me but he is dead" he said.( He as
well was certain that Gloria Steinem, editor of Ms. magazine and famous feminist is a CIA
agent) Ochs was founder of the Yippee party, sang with protesters, and appeared as a
witness for the trail of the Chicago Seven. His lyrics were considered so inflammatory
that he was banned from the air-waves. The FBI did not refrain form amassing a huge file
on him, and the feeling that he was never alone unnerved him. He wrote " take everything I
own, take the tap from my phone, and leave my life alone, My life alone! He was tarred as
a communist and a threat to national security. His friends said Ochs was convinced he
would be assassinated. He was driven to drink by the radio black-listing his music and the
ongoing surveillance and harassments and his nerve gave out. He lived in a perpetual state
of paranoia His vocal cords were crushed by thugs.

He developed a right wing pseudo personality called John Train who he wrote about

( Beth's note: Who created John Train? Was he like his good friend Joan Baez, a
mind-controlled MPD(DID), from abuse and experimentation? On the first day of summer
,1975," Phil Ochs "was murdered in the Chelsea Hotel by John Train, Ochs said in a taped
interview. "for the good of societies public and "secret," he needed to be gotten rid of."
He also made reference to his Pseudo personality in song fragments in an album never
recorded re: "Phil Ochs checked into the Chelse a Hotel, there was blood on his clothes,
Train Train Train, the outlaw and his brain. (my note: I have read accounts of cloning
since the 50's. Lots of hi-tech knowledge kept secret, including in Jim Keith's book
"Secret and Suppressed").

Ochs actually now believed he was working for the CIA., writes biographer Marc
Elliot.( Ochs also referred to N.Y. Cornell Hospital in mysterious lists) "Train hinted
that if Ochs had been a commercial success "they"(CIA) would have killed his host
personality.. " Colby and Co. would have been more than happy to put a slug thru his head
at that point, "said Train, the alternate personality. Ochs committed suicide on April 9,
1976, by hanging. This was the same year of the book " the Control of Candy Jones" by
Donald Bain., ( a study of CIA mind control experimentation, Candy was also an MPD,
created personalities, who carried out covert assignments , a marionette with an inner
Nazi personality. She worked without her knowledge as a CIA op. for 12 years. Her final
post-hypnotic command was suicide, which was intervened by her husband, talk show host
John Nebel. ( the book is out of print, I have a copy) It is very probable that "John
Train" was programmed to kill Philip Ochs the host personality.

Another musician with repressed memory of child-hood trauma was Peter Townsend ("Who"
guitarist). In 1999 it occurred to him that certain phrases from rock opera "TOMMY" were
not fiction but his life. He filled in the blanks from his childhood amnesia.

CHAPTER 10 Who Killed The Kennedys And Sal Mineo (Rebel Without A Cause)

Actor Sal Mineo was stabbed to death in a parking lot after signing on to play Sirhan
Sirhan in an upcoming movie regarding JFK. (CIA assassination and post-hypnotic
programming were the major themes of the movie.) Elliot Mintz talk show host for ABC,
later Bob Dylan and the Lennon's publicist was buried in research with Mineo, regarding
JFK killing. They became convinced Sirhan was innocent. The movie production disagreed and
Mineo pulled out of the picture. After he was killed the media revealed in his secret life
of bi-sexuality, and the murder was taken as homophobia. Gay Bars were closing in fear,
and Hollywood stars took refuge behind locked doors.
Michael Ruppert a former LAPD officer left the department to expose his CIA trained
colleagues. He claims "Sirhan was hypno-programmed using hypnosis, drugs and torture by
Rev. Jerry Owen and CIA Mind-Control Specialist Wm. Bryan at the stable where he worked
months before the shooting. The LAPD concealed evidence implicating the CIA in shooting.
The channels of the intelligence world swarmed with crooks and killers.

Conservative Evangelist Billy Graham was Presidents Nixon's celebrated "spiritual
advisor". Then there was LA's gangster corrupt public servant and wealthy gambling czar
Mickey Cohen.(who "claimed "to be a friend of Sal Mineo) The former hit-man Cohen
contacted the press after Mineos death t o boost that he was his pal. Cohen was also
chummy with Nixon, and his entourage. In 1968, Cohen was coined the godfather of the West
Coast Mafia gambling ops. When Cohen was close to death he opened up to investigative
reporter Chuck Ashman, and he said, "Mickey Cohen told me the tale of his being paid off
to fake a conversion and dose of Christianity for Billy Grahams N.Y. crusade. Two of
Graham's staff had passed more than 10,000 dollars to Mickey and his family." We found the
dates and the amounts and even the checks" Cashmon said.

Cohen was the first bridge linking the killers of Robert Kennedy and Sal Mineo. He was
on friendly terms with Carlos Marcellos, mob boss, who ran with David Ferrie, CIA corrupt
ops., who was investigated by Jim Garrison in the connection of killing of JFK. Cohen was
also a chum with Jack Ruby. Cohen was also a friend of Melvin Belli, Jack Ruby's defense
attorney. He also controlled the Santa Anita race-track where Sirhan was employed. Mickey
Cohen's circle of friends and his appearance in the limelight after the Mineo killing begs
question on Hollywood power brokers. Sirhan and Cohen were close to Desi Arnez, (Producer)
of I Love Lucy .Arnez was an anti Castro Cuban exile leader. In 1966 Sirhan wrote in his
notebook that he landed a job at the stables Corona Breeding Farm co-owned by Desi Arnez,
Buddy Ebsen, Dale Robertson, ultra conservatives, and TV personalities were well
acquainted with Sirhan. Sirhan was known as a fervent anti-communist. Attorney, Russell
Parsons, Sirhan's attorney, showed no effort to make known that Sirhan was in the wrong
position to kill senator Kennedy, he was shot from behind and Sirhan stood in front of
Kennedy.

CHAPTER 11 Project Walrus: John Lennon

Mark-David Chapman chose to plead not guilty due to following the direction of his
voices.. His attorney J. .Marks, punctuated the plea "by reason of insanity". Chapman
testified "I can hear their thoughts, I can hear them talking, but not from the outside,
from the inside" Not one of the three psychiatrists at the trial explored the possibility
of Mind-Control. In 1977 Chapman lost his fundamentalist religion and became a Satanist..
At 19, 1n 1975,Chapman signed onto the YMCA,(international camp counselor program) and
was sent to Beirut where he allegedly received instructions in lethal arts at the CIA
training camp school of terror. (there was a known "experiment in Mind Control unit" for
the army in Lebanon.). In 1980 he surfaced in New York, and mailed a letter to an Italian
address. The Dakota (residence of the Lennon's) was given as a return address. There was a
reference to his" mission " in N.Y.. It was returned to New York, the address not found in
Italy, where it sat for three years in the dead letter bin, and finally delivered to the
Dakota. Yoko Ono glanced at the letter and dropped it in her deranged file. In 1983, head
of security, Mahoney, found the letter. This was evidence of premeditated murder and
conspiracy. The letter vanished and reappeared slightly altered, the post-date now was
1981. The "mission" statement was missing...

Elliot Mintz, friend of Sal Mineo ,was instrumental in exposing "Project Walrus" as a
conspiracy regarding Lennon. He had been Lennon's chum too and publicist since 1971 Mintz
recalls that some of Yoko body guards were at the time New York Police officers.. It is
very difficult for a private citizen to legally possess a weapon in New York. The people
who can are off duty officers. It is thus, a common celebrity arrangement. There were many
files with missing contents at Yoko's apt. after Lennon was killed. Listening devices were
planted at the Dakota and once swept clean would reappear. There had been numerous
attempts on Yoko's life. One man was arrested at airport who had made a call that he was
coming to finish the job and kill Yoko and Sean. There were also calls made to tell her
body guards were going to kill her. Sean Lennon said, "I grew up afraid my mother and I
were going to be killed".

After John's murder the first promoting of Project Walrus was the ruining of his
reputation. John had known he was wire-tapped and was paranoid. After Watergate he filed a
lawsuit for wiretap and surveillance and made some progress. Justice Dept. never would
admit it actually carried out the wiretap and blamed it on other possibilities. After he
got his green card he gave up the litigation. Lennon overcame his fear of federal
harassment and gave public statements that were anti-republican.

Killing Lennon was only the first step. All that he signified must be defaced. That was
the principle objective of Walrus. His diaries were stolen and returned later with extra
entries and some entries altered. Fred Seaman wrote a defamatory book on Lennon. Seaman
was to be executive of Lennon's archives, and much was feigned regarding their bond. He
told friends he was going to discredit Ono at all costs. The goal was to drive her to a
nervous breakdown and discredit her attempt to set straight the public record. The walrus
crew anticipated immense profits. Dead Lennon's money's The events at the Dakota began to
sound like the Movie "Gaslight"..( in which a husband tries to drive his wife crazy by
reality distortion) Yoko began sleeping badly. One of Yoko's assistants, wracked by stress
began packing a gun at all times. He said " you do not know how big this is. The people
doing this are too big to fight." To discredit Lennon and Yoko and the Peace movement was
a major part of Operation Walrus. (but it didn't and IT WILL NOT)

CHAPTER 12 What Cha Gonna Do? The Deaths Of Marley And Tosh

"Vampires do not come out to bite your neck anymore, instead they cause something
destructive to happen that will spill blood., and those invisible vampires will get their
meal " Peter Tosh.
Peter Tosh , like Marley was a widely influential civil rights agitator, and like other
black activists before him he was gunned down. He died in 1987 at age 43. He was upset
with the treatment of his people. Tosh went to Trench Town to live with an uncle after the
aunt he was living with died. It was there he met the young Bob Marley, and taught him to
play guitar. They got together with Bunny Wailer and the trio called themselves the Wailin
Wailers. They were drastically underpaid. Record producers are notorious for pocketing
money. (dem pirates and dem thieves). Peter Tosh always let his feelings be known. He
cared more about principles and morals than popularity and fame. He said "they know I do
not support POLITRICKS and games, my duty is to unify the people." He and Marlew had some
wrangling and he left the group, and went on his own. Destabalsation tactics were
employed, and political violence and sabotage etc. from the CIA with pernicious attempts
to wreck the economy of their country.. The new weapon and the new menace was
destabilization..

Bob Marley held onto the Wailer name and took on new members. The peoples National Party
asked them to play at Smile Jamaica concert. He agreed.

In Nov. a death squad came to Marley's home and started shooting. They shot bullets into
his manager, and one in his wife's' Rita's head , as she tried to get their 5 children out
of the house. They survived. The last bullet creased Marley's breast below his heart and
drilled deep into his arm. Marley would sing "Ambush in the night, all guns aiming at me."
This did not stop them performing at the Smile Jamaica concert.. ("War") "Until the
ignoble and unhappy regimes that now hold our brothers, in Angola, in Mozambique, in
subhuman bondage, have been toppled utterly destroyed...everywhere is war.

Carl Colby, son of CIA head Wm. Colby, came to the concert and posed as crew and got
back stage where he gave a gift to Marley, a pair of boots. Former black Panther Lee
Lew-Lee was close to Marley and he thinks Marley's cancer started with the boots He claims
there was a link of copper wire attached to the boots, which hurt his foot when he tried
them on and had to be removed..(it might have been treated chemically with a carcinogenic
toxin. Marley later broke his toe and found out it was cancerous, it spread. He did not
trust main-stream medicine and continued to perform. He knew by 1977 he was dying and
compressed a lifetime of music into a few years

Something of a Caribbean CIA POGROM was underway via Kissinger and Co. There was
emphasis on psychological Ops. which became arson, banking assassination disruption of the
now Manley's democratic socialist rule. Political violence was stoked and arsenal of
weapons supplied. This was all mostly financed by Hard Drugs, which disrupted the Rasta
movement and marijuana. They wanted it legalized. Their chosen weapon in the Rasta
Movement was free expression and they were crucified for it. Tosh was busted and beaten
almost to death and it made his music more vengeful.. Secret Police and the CIA tailed him
thru it all. Grotesque human rights violations were commonplace. Marley found out he had a
brain tumor. He sang " these songs of freedom is all I ever had, emancipate yourself from
MENTAL SLAVERY. "He was observed rubbing his forehead and grimacing while performing. One
woman explained "Hidden lasers were fixed to spotlights above the stage and burned out his
brain" Fellow
Rasta's heard about an alternative doctor in Jamaica, who advised Marley to talk to a
Doctor Josef Issels, a holistic immuno therapist in a Bavarian village. He went. The Dr.
said "I hear you are one of the most dangerous black men in the world." Issels medical
career did not hold up under scrutiny, during WW2 he had worked hand in hand with Dr.
Mengele (angel of death) in research in Poland, at the Auschwitz camp. The Wailers found
this out after his death.

Issels told Bob he could cure him and did sadistic procedures that left him in agony.
After visits the Wailor's said "he is killing Bob" He also cut off his dreadlocks. He was
in the hands of the doctor who had been the accomplice of Mengele in horrific Medical
experiments against what they considered "sub humans". His mother said " he was starving
and wasting away , and he would fall into fits of shaking, etc" Marley weighed 82 pounds
on the day of his death. May 11, 1980.(HIS MUSIC LIVES ON)

Peter Tosh found the bloodshed and hypocrisy of death squad justice in the Third World
unbearable He was obsessed with the hidden evil. By 1987 the year of Tosh murder Jamaica
musicians were censored by the prevailing politics. Witnesses and friends insist his
murder was a political hit. They were convinced Tosh was killed for his statements on
Human Rights , Black liberation and the legalization of Marijuana. Tosh was throwing a
small party at home when Mike Robertson, a local radio host answered the door. Leppo
Leppan, an old buddy from Trenchtown days stepped in. Behind him were two clean-cut
looking strangers, professional hit-men, they insisted on talking to Tosh at gun-point.
Shots were fired and three people were dead.

Shortly afterward the N.Y. City apartment of Tosh was entered and burglarized, (such as
the aftermath of Hendrix death). Two out of three of the Tosh killers remain at large.
One hit-man was said to be a policeman, (of course Leppan was convicted.)

CHAPTER 13 Gang War Sons Of Chaos

Rap artist Tupac Shakur was gunned down at a stop-light in Las Vegas in 1996. It will be
evident re: the police strategy of disinformation, ignoring of witnesses, and the presence
of undercover agents from L.A. and N.Y at the murder of rapper Notorious B.I.G.
This suggests that both rappers were murdered by hit squads under the sanction of
federal officers. Tupac's father said "It was clear to me form day one that the Las Vegas
police never had any interest in solving the case of my sons murder," it was said " we
dealt extensively with COINTELPRO (FBI) issues. We worked around a lot of political
prisoners and the black liberation movement over the years. This shaped Tupac into the
person he was. The family operated the "Center for Black Survival." They had a youth group
called "The New African Panthers" and Tupac became the chairperson for it."

The agony of the Rap industry was exacerbated in March 1997 by killing 24 yr. old
Brooklyn rap artist Notorious B.I.G. in L.A. This happened after he had attended the
annual 'Soul Train' Music awards, by an unidentified gun-man. Tupac's father said in a
letter excerpt:

"we do know that Brother Biggie was a part of an industry that has been under attack
from the highest form of government officials. They have targeted Tupac, Sister Souljah,
IceT, and Ice Cube, just to name a few. This is reportedly due to the content of the
lyrics. "IF" this was the case why would devil-worshippers (music-artists) not be hounded
out also? (They openly worship the devil in a so-called God fearing country.) Their lyrics
preach mayhem, destruction. death to parents, and even government; whereas our rapper
love-ones wanted to explain their pain and identify from where they came, with hopes for a
better tomorrow; if all things were fair.
We believe that history has demonstrated that the murders of black people(young and
old) who can have a profound impact, those who refuse to bow down, have been targeted by
government at its highest level.

What we must understand is that our warriors are needed when it has been proven beyond
contradiction that the C.I.A. were principal importers of Crack Cocaine and Cocaine into
the 'HOOD', with blatantly racist drug laws, to set into motion tactics of genocide to
destroy or lock away our brothers and sisters or the rest of their lives.

Pay attention to the game that is being played on/against us! Search for TRUTH! Don't
look at who shot them, but why? Don't be fooled by the media, that has never shown real
concern for our welfare." Dr. Mutulu Shakur

Mutulu Shakur's conviction that SECRET POLICE killed his stepson and Notorious B.I.G.
proves to be increasingly feasible.

CHAPTER 14 False God Syndrome

Death Of Michael Hutchene
1997, M. Hutchence was found tethered by his neck to a door frame. He too was an
activist, who willed the lion share of his fortune to Amnesty International and the Green
Party. He was found at the Ritz-Carleton in Sydney Australia. The media concocted scenes
of SM but he was found with a broken hand and lacerations and had taken a bad beaten. His
friends said he was not depressed and he was against suicide. There were rumors of the
"MOB" involved in his investments possibly unknown to him. He died penniless due to
investments and trusts and his family had to fight for his money.

He knew Gianni Versace, famous designer who was gunned down, and was also said to be
possibly mafia involved, although he denied it angrily (A dead mourning bird was found by
the Versace body, a symbol of a hit-man).

The funeral of Versace was attended by Diana Spencer, the Princess of Wales, and a month
before her own death. As it happened another friend of Hutchence was Dodi Fayed , someone
said to have mob links. Dodi's uncle was arms dealer Adnan Khashoggi of the Iran-Contra
Fame.

Dodi and Diana were killed in a car accident four months before Hutchence died.

The Deep Politiics Of Music

Roger Bunn director of the Music Industry, Human Rights Association (MIHRA), in the U.K.
lives in the eye of the corporate music beast. These are excerpts from letters form Bunn:

"Re: M.Hutchene "so that's it, huh? Death due to hanging? Sort of unusual that, even for
the music industry. Those wonderful featured artist really light up the sky every now and
then. Maybe we should consider making the poor darlings an endangered species? When they
reach their peak it probably means worth more to the conglomerates dead than live. Think
about that next time you go out to by your conglomerate primitive/folk music, or a
well-known movie. Yyou add strength to the cartel Monopoly. The music industry turns over
120 billion dollars a year. In the music industry there is no such thing as "Real
Competition".

"Music Industry Is The Richest Industry On The Planet, by providing the public with a
marketing of False God Syndrome

When an artists "usefulness" to a conglomerate is over things can get a little sticky."

COINTEL PRO AND RAP MUSIC
Last week we raised the possibility that an organized attempt had been and still is being made to destabilize the Hip-Hop industry and thus the community. We briefly looked at the murder of the Notorious B.I.G. and raised some unanswered questions surrounding his death; introduced some important background information regarding the FBI’s COINTELPRO which was dedicated to destabilizing Black and progressive organizations, especially in the 1960s and 70s; and posed a challenge to Black intellectuals to apply their knowledge of the tactics used by the U.S. government to oppose Black leaders, to Biggie’s murder in particular, and to the Hip-Hop Industry/Community in general. We also pointed you to a Brill’s Content article that shows how the L.A. Times has been involved in disseminating false information regarding Biggie’s murder. We also took pains to mention that it was this story and one prior to it that brought Suge Knight’s name into the mix as allegedly involved in Biggie’s death. We openly questioned that if the L.A. Times article is misinformation wouldn’t that point to Mr. Knight’s innocence and we asked who was the original source in the FBI/LAPD that fingered Suge Knight? What was their motive for doing this, through the media? I hope that some of you, in your study of COINTELPRO and other programs, are familiar with the manner in which the FBI and CIA used reporters and media outlets, print and TV, to plant stories, have articles written and spread malicious lies – much of which was directed at getting groups that otherwise could have worked together to fight one another.

Last week, I also openly stated that it was my opinion that the image and rumors of an East Coast – West Coast Hip-Hop “war” were a fabrication of the media and perpetuated by local and federal police departments prior to and during the investigations into Tupac and Biggie’s murders, in large part via information fed to reporters in various media outlets. We will conclude this series next week on this crucial point of the role of the media, in particular its role in COINTELPRO of yesterday and its possible continuation today. This week we take a very brief look at a more recent situation in Hip-Hop that again raises the possibility that the Federal Government has ill- intentions for the Hip-Hop Community.

A few weeks ago, the Village Voice published an article alleging that over the last year a white government informant was in some capacity representing members of the multi-platinum group, Wu-Tang Clan, while the group was under criminal investigation. After reading the article, it is readily apparent that it was a sensationalized story designed to reflect negatively upon Wu-Tang. The story also appeared to be crafted in great part because while the headlines emphasized the supposed connection between this white individual and Wu-Tang, the article deals more substantively with the individual’s alleged real connection to white organized crime figures in New York and Miami. The individual is reportedly a government informant in a case involving Mob figures in New York and Miami. So while real evidence allegedly links the individual to Mob figures, the Village Voice cover and headlines and subtitles focused on a very unclear connection between the “informant’ and the Hip-Hop group. Most of the information on that front is anecdotal in nature that informs the reader of little.

The real story is this individual’s relationship with white underworld figures and the feds yet the Village Voice markets the piece, which was picked up by news services all over the world, as quality reporting that somehow connects this individual’s relationship with the U.S. Government with his relationship with Wu-Tang. The piece doesn’t live up to that billing. It never connects the dots but to an unsuspecting and innocent reader, it does open the Clan up to suspicion not only in terms of a link to the feds but also in terms of criminal activity. I found that to be peculiar and yes, the deliberate intention of the Village Voice. In the weeks that have followed the piece, many people have spread more rumors, gossip and innuendo regarding the Clan over the Internet and many people seem to have only read the sensational headlines but have not analyzed the story or the motive behind it with a critical mind.

To me, the aim of the Village Voice and/or whoever may have helped them craft the story, was to discredit the Clan inside of the unforgiving world of the New York Hip-Hop community and to discredit them among their core group of fans. It also attempted to portray the group as unintelligent but it definitely did not seek to prove that the individual was really working on behalf of the government specifically against the Clan, though the article and headlines imply otherwise. This is one of the factors that makes me believe that someone bigger than just the Village Voice may have been behind the story – how else could the government come off clean and the Clan looking rather uncomplimentary. Remember, the story is supposed to be about feds, Wu and this informant but it ends up really only being about the informant and Wu. What happened to the feds?

The reason why I stress that point is because I believe the writer(s) could have proved or disproved whether the informant was working against the Clan if they so desired and from reading the piece, I believe that the writer(s) has discussed the government’s surveillance of Wu-Tang with enough people in the know, to be able to determine whether or not this government informant is directly working against Wu-Tang or if he is only with the group strictly for business purposes as he gives evidence on the alleged Miami/New York crime figures. The writer(s) simply asks why the informant was working with Wu-Tang in any capacity and spends the majority of the article lampooning and mocking the group. And again, he leaves the feds unscathed.

The Village Voice sought to harm the group’s reputation by negative implication and innuendo. The story, to me, seemed designed to destroy the Clan’s street credibility not prove any thing about this informant working for the feds against the Clan. If they had done that (proved the informant was working against the Clan) the Village Voice would have proved the existence of COINTELPRO. No, the informant angle is the hook that draws you in to read garbage about the Clan. And I found it very interesting that no one in the community that prides itself on its “consciousness” came to the defense of the Clan, even to intelligently alert the public to the possibility that the Village Voice article may point to something bigger than Wu-Tang.

This could have helped others even those who I know do not like Wu-Tang personally or what they represent in music or ideology. If you are in the Hip-Hop community, personal dislike of the Clan won’t cut it on this one. The Hip-Hop community owes it to itself to defend itself from what many people, more than just myself, know to be a deliberate attempt to destabilize and destroy the real and potential cultural, economic and political impact of Hip-Hop. From my limited vantage point, everyone seemed caught up in the sensational aspects of the story and not the potential threat it posed to the entire community. This is another aspect of the indolence of the Hip-Hop community that I referred to last week.

I personally served as management to Wu-Tang a couple of years ago. I no longer do so. To the best of my knowledge, which I think is pretty good, the Clan was never involved in any of the criminal activities that they were or are currently under investigation for. I do not and never have, for one moment believed that they are guilty. Of course, I did not see everything that everyone was doing but I am confident that I was certainly in a position to know whether or not a gun-running operation was being organized and ran by the group. I am not afraid to go on public record in defense of the group or the truth of what I know.

But the Federal Government wants to pin these charges on the Clan. What I can tell you that the Village Voice did not tell you, is that several individuals who have been arrested and/or charged with crimes in New York City and who have never had any affiliation with the group, have been offered reduced sentences or no time at all in exchange for either saying that they were connected with Wu-Tang when they committed their alleged crimes or in exchange for directly infiltrating the music group. This is a fact. A fact that the Village Voice should know about with all of its connections in the entertainment community and law-enforcement. And these individuals being approached are young Black males not an alleged white informant who is linked to some white mobsters in New York or Miami. That is the real story if the Village Voice is so interested.

The goal of the Federal Government, the FBI included, is to lie and link Wu-Tang and others to a supposed Hip-Hop industry- wide crime network. I know that as early as 1995, several young Black music executives, other than Wu-Tang, and their actual places of business were under surveillance and “investigation” by the Federal Government allegedly for committing various crimes. Not only have individuals under the supervision of the criminal justice system been approached in an effort to make cases against high-profile individuals in the industry but so have white lawyers and white music executives who deal with these individuals. This is common knowledge inside of a few circles in the music industry; even marketing plans of certain artists have been taken by federal investigators. We also know that the IRS has been and is unfairly targeting several Hip-Hop artists and their business enterprises for audits. One day, this will all come out.

For those who persist in wanting to see all crime-fighting efforts as above reproach and legitimate, I can tell you that for whatever illegal activities that may or may not have been perpetrated by various individuals in the music business, the Federal Government has gone above and beyond what is fair in their investigation of the Clan. Asking individuals to straight up lie and say that they are connected to crimes that never occurred and to make up affiliations and even to ask suspects to infiltrate Wu-Tang is not legitimate crime fighting. I also do not see it as simply a case of a “few bad cops”. I see it as a deliberate attempt to destabilize and discredit not only an influential group but also an entire industry and cultural force. To me, it is certainly reminiscent of COINTELPRO where the goal was not to arrest guilty individuals but to arrest a cultural and political movement. For those who have studied COINTELPRO, it is interesting to learn of all of the Black celebrities and entertainers who have/had government files. I hope everyone in the Hip-Hop community will become much more alert and those who have first-hand knowledge of what I am talking about will begin to compare notes with one another. This isn’t a game or fantasy although some will persist in doubting to the very end. Next week at http://blackelectorate.com/ we will look at some historical evidence that shows that the FBI and CIA used reporters to spread pieces of misinformation to the public and actually helped journalists write false stories. Could this be happening today?
