NAACP Gives Black Churches a Manual for Dealing with the HIV Epidemic
About a year and a half ago, a group of pastors joined with the NAACP to write a manual designed to help church leaders talk to their congregations about the HIV epidemic in the African-American community. The manuals are now available online or in printed form.
About a year and a half ago, a group of pastors joined with the NAACP to write a manual designed to help church leaders talk to their congregations about the HIV epidemic in the African-American community. The manuals are now available online or in printed form. The efforts by the NAACP are necessary in response to the growing HIV crisis among African American women, and gay black men, two groups that are leaders in HIV infection. But heterosexual black males are also being affected, with a vast number of cultural influences convincing young black men to have more s****l partners than they should.
Shavon Arline-Bradley, the director of health programs for the NAACP, who helped in the creation creation of the manual said that this, too is a a civil rights issue.
“People look at us as just civil right rights, and what they’re missing is that health is one of the most pressing civil rights issues of our time,” Arline-Bradley said in an interview with the Associated Press. It has been established that African-Americans make up almost half of all new HIV infections, and are more likely to die of complications from AIDS than any other race. The NAACP says the black church can play a role in combatting the effect of HIV in the black community and offers this manual as a tool to begin the process.
The manual suggests that pastors talk about HIV in their sermons. It also encourages church leaders to promote safe s*x and access to condoms, and to organize HIV screening drives for their congregations. The manual also offers passages from the Bible to serve as starting points for teaching and conversation.
The manual can help the black church overcome the stigma that it’s done nothing to help in the fight against HIV/AIDS. By condemning the gay community and only addressing out-of-wedlock s*x as a sin, the church often runs into problems with behavior that occurs behind closed doors. What happens behind closed doors is not always good and it can often be quite dangerous.

Gay churches aren’t constantly bombarding their members with self esteem lowering statistics, that may or not be accurate. Neither is white churches. If this black govt truly cared about black citizens they would do some positives that give life, like:
jobs
education
crime free community
drug free community
police protection
help with mortgages
help with institutional rascism.
This govt can only use the word black and help in the same sentence when it comes to stigmatizing and demoralizing. Other groups have AIDS and lots of it, but they would raise holy h**l if someone tried to convince them that stigmatizing them is beneficial to their people.

Psychological warfare using mass-media is the most powerful and most efficient means of subdueing and controlling an enemy or “combatant” population. If they can control what people think of as “reality” then they don’t even need guns. Here is a quotation from a psychological warfare textbook published by John Hopkins University Press in the 1950’s:
“Psychological warfare is at best a cumbersome and pretentious label for an important modern political and military weapon, the use of mass-communication…and is one of the few completely legitimate weapons which can on occasion be directed against an entirely civilian and non-combatant target.”
And from Adolph Hitler:
“The art of propaganda lies in understanding the emotional basis of the great masses an finding, through a psychologically correct form, the way to the attention and thence to the heart of the broad masses. The receptivity of the great masses is very limited, their intelligence small, but their power of forgetting is enormous. In consequence of these facts, all effective propaganda must be limited to a very few points and must harp on these slogans until the last member of the public understands what you want him to understand or believe…”
KEEP ENCOURAGING AND ACCEPTING PROPAGANDA AGAINST YOUR COMMUNITY AND END UP LIKE THE JEWS.
once again here is the cure
How you can make your own Umlingo WamaNgcolosi for 1 day:
1. Soak 3 average sized non GE/GMO lemons for about 10 minutes in water with some vinegar or plenty of see salt added. Then scrub each lemon to rid it of whatever the growers have sprayed on it.
2. Cut the lemons with skin and pips in pieces and put them in a strong mixer blender
3. Add 3 tablespoons of Extra Virgin Olive oil and 3 cups of water
4. Add 3 tablespoons of non GE/GMO local garlic
5. Add 3 tablespoons of non GE/GMO local Ginger (Double this amount for people with Lung problems/ Asthma)
6. Add 3 teaspoons of cold pressed Hemp Seed Oil (Double for Epilepsy & nervous diseases)
7. Add 3 teaspoons of cold pressed Flax Seed Oil
8. Add 3 tablespoons of Aloe Vera extract (with no preservatives)
9. Add 1 teaspoon of tumeric
10. Add 3 tablespoons of a natural Multivitamin/ Multi Mineral supplement (Foodstate multi mineral & Vitamin)
11. Add ¼ teaspoon of Stevia powder.(or less)
12. Add 3 cups of ozon enriched filtered water (We recommend OASIS water 0861 762 747)
13. Blend for 35 minutes. (or less if its a very powefull mixer blender)
14. Drink 1/3 in the morning, 1/3 after lunch and 1/3 in the evening. Repeat this for 6 to 24 weeks non stop, depending on when you feel that you have fully recovered. Then you can maintain your health by eating organic and wholesome. You can also use Umlingo WamaNgcolosi for maintenance by having one bottle twice a month.
In addition on a daily basis the patient should eat 2 large Beetroots/day, 2 Brazil Nuts, 1 Tablespoon of Pumpkin Seeds, as much non GE/GMO organic Fruit and Veggies as possible, drink 2 liters of Filtered water, expose the body to sunshine in the mornings and late afternoons and breath deeply. If the patient feels like drinking Tea, it should only be natural herbal tea like green or Rooibos tea without sugar. (You can use Stevia powder to sweeten)
Incase of Asthma, Do the following breathing exercise a couple of times per day: Breath out, till all is out (bending even over). Breath in on the count of 8, hold your breath for the count of 8, and breath out again, bending over. Singing songs where you have to use up your air is also a good way to do this exercise
Avoid the following until you are free of Symptoms and beyond:
No “normal” tea, no coffee (instant or bean), no alcohol, no juices (even the “natural” ones or the no sugar added ones), no fizzy or gassy drinks, no diet drinks, no milk or yoghurt or any other animal products. No sugar, no refined foods, no bread, no wheat products, no pasta, no flour, no potatoes, obviously no cakes etc., no diet products. No red meat till you are healthy, and than you can eat occasionally “green” meat (from cattle raised organically). Stay away from all processed meats including sausages, and also meat from pork like bacon and ham etc. Do not use artificial sweetners, as they were designed to kill ants, so if you want to get rid of your ants in your garden or house, just sprinkle artificial sweetener powder and the ants will die. Heating oil and frying food make the food and the oil toxic. Avoid especially when sick. Later on you can use Palmflower or Coconut oil to fry occasionally.
NEVER stop your medication on your own (unless you have 100% faith in your own decisions based on real knowledge) – it can be dangerous. Have yourself monitored regularly by a doctor (or a registered nurse who is allowed to adjust your or terminate your medication) for insulin, high blood pressure medication and cholesterol medication should you have doubts. You will need less medication as you stay on Umlingo WamaNgcolosi untill all medication may be stopped. You can reduce medication like painkillers and anti-inflammatory drugs yourself, but for example cortisone or steroids (often prescribed for arthritis and asthma are drugs you have to be weaned of, depending how long you have been on it. Although you will not need your asthma pump anymore, keep it with you till you know for sure you will not need it anymore. Don’t just throw it out when you have not used it for a week or two.
Once you are well, you can reduce Umlingo WamaNgcolosi to twice per day. Keep on monitoring your ph so it stays in the normal range, and than you can reduce the Umlingo WamaNgcolosi to once per day. You will notice that when for example you have eaten many things you should normally avoid, like cakes, puddings and meat, your ph may drop and you may feel sluggish the next day. Just for one or two days take again 3 cups of Umlingo WamaNgcolosi, so you can get all the junk quickly out of your body. Do not see this as a diet but a lifestyle change. The saying “You are what you eat” is so true. You eat junk, you become diseased!
Umlingo WamaNgcolosi juice will bring your body back to balance. When you have eaten something that makes you feel nauseas, or causes you to vomit or have diarrhea just take 2 tablespoons of activated charcoal every 2 hours till it has stopped. You can also grind some burned wood or plain charcoal into a powder and take that. We advise on many other diseases like Lupus, cancers, autism, strokes, heart, emphysema, etc. The basic Umlingo WamaNgcolosi juice is than still used but with other things added.
