Eagle Scouts, Prison Labor, and Stolen Legacy ~ Anything but the truth… Unknown Nigger…

13th Amendment to the U.S. Constitution suggests a legal notion of official slavery... for those less than human...

A modern day profit motive in Folsom, California, where inmates built Folsom Prison and will join people throughout Africa with a less than $1.00 wage for a proposed change of Unknown, Moved From Nigger Hill Cemetery, By U.S. Government in 1954… a quick fix... without dignity or cognition of the egregious violation brought to light.

Mother Africa and those early pioneers of African Descent will find dignity and respect this United Nations International Year for People of African Descent, one way or the other... patience is a virtue.

EL DORADO HILLS, Calif. - Thirty-six concrete gravestones along the Sacramento County and El Dorado “County border the 50+-year-old Mormon Island Relocation Cemetery in California's Gold Mining District, bear a blatant reminder of a more racist past, present and future if the current reality continues.

The dead were moved from a Gold Rush regional community, Negro Hill, California, todays El Dorado Hills, California, 25 miles east of Sacramento, in the 1950s to make way for Folsom Lake.

The problem is the way the markers continue to identify them almost 60 years later, and the values and beliefs that keep the unnecessary drama flowing… "Unknown. Moved from Nigger Hill Cemetery by U.S. Government - 1954."

For over a decade, regional leaders have filed written petition to replace the word “Nigger” to the authentic name of the town “Negro.”

The remaining trouble is getting someone to take responsibility for fixing an error committed during an era when the N-word was commonly used. The Army Corps of Engineers, which had the graves relocated, says it handed over control of the gravesite to El Dorado County. The county says it welcomes a solution from the Corps. Yet the original contract between the Secretary of the Army and El Dorado County Board of Supervisors is not being utilized to solve a simple challenge…

Are people of African Descent, Niggers? If not then we can review the contract and find a remedy that brings those injured to a place of becoming whole and healing.

It is a historical Civil War notion and early challenge of the U.S. Founding Fathers… suggested, "to form a more perfect union."

Several Eagle Scouts have embraced a cloked notion of East African age grade system of becoming a man through a hidden notion of ‘white supremacy’ this time via an adopted Asian boy, unable to locate the sole Asian child in the Mormon Island Relocation Cemetery.

Chuck Pattillo, general manager of the California Prison Industry Authority, said the inmates can finish the work in two days, free of charge. He just needs approval from El Dorado County officials who less than a month ago said they had no cogniton of the challenge.

Thus, a foul stench of basic, cheap, slave labor with a rushed notion of “Good Bye Uncle Tom” is not good to rush....

Maybe an open, calm, rational solution is on the horizon.

No date is set in El Dorado County, State, Federal or International wisdom may be necessary.

2011, United Nations International Year for People of African Descent.
