IMPORTANT FACTS

1. All psychiatric and psychological racist influence —in our courts, police departments, prisons, schools and universities—must be eradicated so that it can never again be used to oppress and degrade individuals.

2. A proper, non-psychiatric, medical examination must be conducted to determine if an undiagnosed physical problem is causing any person’s unwanted behavior.

3. The psychiatric profession has a profit interest in ensuring that racist ideas continue to influence our society. The way to ensure freedom from their consequences is to continue to identify and limit the influence of the exact source of this social poison—psychiatrists and psychologists.

CHAPTER FOUR Creating a Better Future

South African President Nelson R. Mandela, in his autobiography Long Walk to Freedom, states, “Out of the expe- rience of an extraordinary human disaster that lasted too long, must be born a society of which all humanity will be proud. … Never, never, and never again shall it be that this beautiful land will again experience the oppression of one by another. … The sun shall never set on so glorious a human achievement.”

To achieve this desired society, the psychiatric sources of apartheid and similar “extraordinary human disasters” must be clearly identified.

Isaac Hayes says: “Children are the hope of our culture, whether Black, Hispanic, Native American, or any race. Do innercity youth, antagonized by poverty, substandard inner-city education, unemployment and broken families, need labels and drugs that will turn them violent? This battle is about mental slavery.”

In 2003, in response to this “mental slavery”— psychiatric labels and drugs—the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People (NAACP) in the United States unanimously passed a resolution supporting federal legislation that would protect children from being forced onto psychiatric drugs in schools. A proper examination must be performed to determine if an undiagnosed physical problem is causing any child’s unwanted behavior.

The numerous factors that fit the “ADHD” criteria, but which can be accurately diagnosed as allergic reactions or vitamin/nutritional deficiencies, include: High levels of lead from the environ- ment, which can place children at risk of both school failure and delinquent behavior.

High mercury levels in the body also may cause agitation.

Insect killing agents which can create nervousness, poor concentration, irritability, memory problems, and depression.

Too much sugar can make a person “too active” or “hyper.” Our modern-day fast food, which often lacks nutritional value, can dramatically affect a person’s behavior.

Bad food or poor nutrition can create anxiety and other behavioral or mental problems.
