Canaan

It must still be okay.

Um, and what, uh, and then they also, they sometimes use the, the pro-slavery kind of racist people also use this, what's sometimes known as the curse of Ham or Noah's curse shown Noah's grandson, Ham's son, Canaan, very complicated.

You can get into it later if you want, but some people kind of misconstrued that as the first of all, justifying slavery, then also falsely claiming that Africans were kind of cursed by God.

But anyway, in this very early anti-slavery document from 1676 to 1777 by William Edmondson, the Quaker, he kind of refutes all those points.

It was decided already by the people who were focused on racism and white supremacy, and it's still alive because the deciding and the people who decide never stop deciding who goes on either side of those lines.

So what do we have on our agenda for this week? Well, first of all, we're going to have a quote from someone from the past, Hubert Harrison, someone you may not have heard of, but you really should know about him.

And hopefully, based upon this quote of the week this week, you'll delve more into some of the things that he had to say.

After that, we're going to unmask the news.

All right, welcome back.

And welcome to the quote of the week.

And as I said, our quote of the week is from Herbert Harrison.

Now, I'm going to give you a little bit of background information on him before we get started with the quote, because I just want to to frame this.

The wound did not stop with him.

After Noah's drunkenness, the curse falls on Canaan, a grandchild who did nothing, who was not even there.

That is the injustice that sits in the center of intergenerational trauma, and the Bible names it plainly without explaining it.

The harm lands on someone who never saw the flood.

Obviously the giants are back.

Uh, where do they see the giants? In the land of Canaan.

Goes back to the names, Canaan, son of Ham, son of Noah.

Like, I don't think it's, I don't think it's a coincidence that they see giants in the land of Canaan, 'cause I think this is the Rephaim.

This is the resurgence of the giants after the flood.

They come back somehow through the line of Canaan, and it just so happens to be this kid who goes out and finds this tablet that Jubal is talking about.

Disclaimer, to the Pharisees and Karens out there.

How dare you?

Therefore they had nothing to do with them, praying to their own God only and looking to him for support.

They were the chosen people of Jehovah, just as the Babylonians were the chosen people of Baal, the Canaanites the chosen people of Ishitar, the Moabites the chosen people of Chemos, the Ammonites the chosen people of Rimmon.

Now Joseph was the favorite son of Jacob, and his brethren were naturally jealous of him.

So one day out on the range they sold him into slavery to a passing caravan, and went home and told their father the boy was dead, having been killed by a wild beast.

In the Book of Jubilee...

It talks about Canaan, Noah's grandson.

And the sun grew and he went to seek for himself a city.

He found a writing which former generations had carved on the rock.
