Because of the events that lead me to my father grave, on June 18th., 2005. I stated looking into things more and more about the time of his death because he was in fact still a young man and it seemed strange to me his untimely death. And more important, at the time there were major investigation launched out of the FBI seeking information on blacks who were moving ahead too quickly.
So were people within the Black Islamic movement whereby there were people sent in you looked Black but they were indeed included in on the watch against their own people.
Many are still around and many ended up heading many of these groups as a cover for a government control operation.
Indeed I was aware of this, made aware by my father and mother, and then later my those who were inside and knew that there telephone lines were being tapped and they were being watched and placed in things that caused them later to be controlled by the government. This was the way of those within the FBI, that felt that Blacks were moving up and needed to be stopped, as I had started within other areas of my website, they watched and made it clear that we were not going anywhere.
those within the Black Nation of Islam headed up this list because they were too unvolved with the movement and pose a threat to this mentality.
A hatred of minorities coming right out of the government.
Designed to keep them in there place.
The reason why the so-called cases came up with McCarty was due I felt to the fact that many Blacks including my father and others in NYC and other areas were now moving in circles with wealthly whites and those within the entertainment industry.
It became apparent this was what was to be called "Communist Movement, you see people like Lucy Ball, Tutullah Bankhead, Martha Raye, Eddie Cantor, Milton Berle, ORson Wells, Walter Winchell, Jack Benny, The Orginal Rat Pack, which included Humphery Bogart, Lauren McCall, Kathleen Hepburn, and Lloyd Bridges others stepped over the race lines.
It was a area where the talented then, included all but it was within the backdoors and Harlem.
Indeed Blacks had to go in and out of back kitchens to perform, and were not being paid well, nor were allowed to sit in many of the night clubs as today.
They were allowed in but at the same thing not allowed the right of the basic freedoms which we take so lightly today here in the United States.
Out of this racism coming out of those who controlled the political flow. Many tied to their states and the KKK others not knowing anything else other than what travel through their vains as their rights and freedom to oppress others,
This was America, then.
The Blacks in the Military was far worse, and to think many brave men who were black had to fight within a war to make sure our nation and those of others were protected but again within its own base, the branches of the military racism was alive.
Black soldiers were not allowed to eat, speak to, and or sleep in any area mear blacks,they were off limits, this racism is hardlly spoken of, but I had a chance to talk to some of them and it was indeed outrageous what happen to them inside our military, and much of the same at a lower level is still going on within today. But we are told to fight within a country which is not giving us all are rights and freedoms.
As we are not given the same right to this day within the court system . This is the way and unless we see are evil ways and fix them America is just a paper giant without any real truths just myths that have now caught up with us.

The McCormick Place Fired
Six-year-old McCormick Place was thoroughly damaged in a fire that started during the National Housewares Manufacturers Association 46th Semi-Annual Exhibit. One security guard was killed.
A janitor noticed smoke coming from the back of a booth about 2:05 a.m. Within 5 minutes the entire booth was involved and the fire department called at 2:11 a.m. The fire department responded rapidly, entering the building and ordering a second alarm at 2:16 a.m. Nine alarms were struck, bringing 500 persons and 94 pieces of fire equipment. Initial attempts to fight the fire were frustrated by an almost immediate failure of the water supply. By 2:53 a.m. firefighters were able to establish a relay from hydrants 1/4 mile away and the first fire boat arrived, but by then the whole building was involved in the fire and the roof had started collapsing. The fire was struck out at 9:46 a.m. with only parts of the lower level and the theater undamaged.
A number of factors contributed to the catastrophe. Most of these would have been sufficient by themselves to cause great destruction. The 1,250 exhibits were constructed of highly flammable wood, paper and plastic. The temporary wiring used to rig exhibits was often not up to the building code. 92% of the building, including the exhibition hall, did not have sprinklers. The water supply failed almost immediately upon the firefighters' arrival. McCormick Place's private hydrants were closed and never reopened after construction on the Stevenson Expressway, and the private pumping system was defective and inadequate. The fire spread was very rapid due to the lack of compartmentalization, the large amount of fuel, and lack of means of suppression. The unprotected steel roof trusses failed early on in the fire due to the same factors.
The new McCormick Place was completed in January 1971. It was built on the old foundations and had sprinklers throughout.
