To me "blackness" was synonymous with righteousness from my long study of ancient African philosophy, history and African civilizations. These giants were extolled by Greeks like Diodorus Siculus, Homer, Plato, Aristotle; and are apotheosized in marble, granite, geometry, writing, religion, mystery.
Therefore , given recent events in the 20th and 21st century, involving black people, who have become leaders and criminals without values, knowledge or understanding, I now reject the notion of "blackness" as righteousness .
"Whiteness" never was righteous to me because I know their "white" history, much of which is and was stolen and plagiarized from the blacks, most of whom, sadly, are ignorant of their own history, anthropology, legacy!! And the ongoing evils inflicted on us!
Righteousness is divine conduct; that is personal, official, secular, religious, conduct in accordance with truth, justice, order, balance, love, nature. Righteousness is God-like, perfect, accurate, rigorous, generous, scrupulous as credo, as code, as conduct.
