The Overlooked Meaning of “This is America” by Childish Gambino

This is America clearly struck a chord with this generation. But is there more to the character played by Donald Glover than meets the eye? We’ll look at the symbolism of This is America and its significance in today’s social climate.

After over 100 million YouTube views in less than a week and intense media attention, it is safe to say that This is America has reached the enviable status of “cultural phenomenon”. Combining violent imagery with interpretative dance, the video conveys a message that is clear, yet ambiguous, obvious, yet enigmatic. It holds a mirror up to a popular culture that is in crisis and a new black pride movement rebirthing from an utterly toxic womb. This is my New Chronicle, Hopefully Will be finished the coming week. People the Black community is going through a little holocaust, destroy them or destroyed the old and create a NEW!! And this video is revealing how thew Elite is doing it. The so called Pawns and leaders of the world knows all about it but they will say nothing or they will be apart of this little holocaust and break down of the Black community … Those who sold their soul to Lucifer must keep silent and vow to keep Silent or lease they will be a sacrifice! So be Looking for My new chronicle titled

You’ll notice that  artists and actors will hold their finger to their mouth in the ‘Shhh’ motion, or even just cover their mouth at times when taking photos. These people in the entertainment industry also get tattoos along said finger in case your attention wasn’t drawn in enough on what they were gesturing. These gestures aren’t coincidental but rather symbolic of the world’s best kept secret; By the Powers that BE!!!

These artists know about the secret inner workings of this dark world and they use this as leverage to let others know that they are down with the inner sanctum. They are conveying the message that they know to keep quiet, as should you. The concept of MK ULTRA (a legitimate CIA brainwashing program) robotic mind programming goes down this rabbit hole as well. The MONARCH sub-program of MK ULTRA (not so legitimate- but rather something eyewitnesses have claimed to be a part of like Cathy O’Brien) is also evident with the plethora of Monarch butterflies found in similar photo shoots. These artists want others to know that they are involved with these mind control programs and they are quite okay with it.

The master occultist Aleister Crowley had an Illuminati vow of silence, as mentioned in this very in-depth article by HenryMakow:

According to the Beast, a small elite must rule over the masses: “You will observe that I am advocating an aristocratic revolution.  And so I am!” Most of Crowley’s evil doctrines have been kept secret in the past through initiation requirements in satanic lodges.  Crowley emphasized the doctrine of silence, as seen below in full magical garb making the stance and gesture of silence.

In fact, that same Makow article takes that infamous Crowley concept of ‘do what thou wilt’ further back to the Hellfire Club founded by Dashwood. If you look at the ‘Silent Watcher’ image of Crowley above you can see his right foot facing forward with his left facing to his left; this is supposed to represent a magical stance used in ceremonial magick ceremonies. In Crowley’s Liber O you can see the detail in which he recommends one follow these rituals:

All their life was regulated not by laws, statutes or rules, but according to their free will and pleasure. They rose from bed when they pleased, and drank, ate, worked and slept when the fancy seized them. Nobody woke them; nobody compelled them either to eat or to drink, or to do anything else whatever… In their rules there was only one clause: do what thou wilt. The doctrine of silence was emphasized at the Hellfire Club:  Dashwood definitely created an ancient Egyptian-Graeco-Roman theme for the club. The visitor to Medmenham was welcomed by a statue of Harpocrates, as well as of his female equivalent, the goddess Angerona. They seem to be there to remind the members that they are required to be silent about what goes on inside.

And if you want to take the vow of silence concept even further back, Makow points out that the Greek god Harpocrates (the Greek god of silence) derives from the Egyptian god Horus- said to be the god of secrecy and concealment (again, tying us into Crowley through his Aeon of Horus; the All Seeing Eye, see my Aleister Crowley and the Entertainment Industry post):

The Egyptians had their own God of Silence:  Haar-Poor-Kraat, a god-form of Horus.  This god-form has always been depicted with the right hand placed toward the mouth with one finger over the lips in a gesture of silence. The Greeks had their own God of Silence as well: Harpocrates, a version of the Egyptian God of Silence.  This god-form was similarly depicted as his Egyptian counterpart, with the right hand placed toward the mouth and one finger over the lips in a gesture of silence.

This concept of the Aeon of Horus that Crowley believed he was introducing in the early 20th century is pervasive in the entertainment industry, as is evident with the never ending symbolism found in photos of one eye, or the All Seeing Eye. I go into much more colorful detail in my highly acclaimed book A Grand Unified Conspiracy Theory: The Illuminati, Ancient Aliens, and Pop Culture (well, maybe not highly acclaimed, but so far I’ve got one 5-star review as of this writing and I promise that wasn’t from me):

And you know that this all ties into Freemasonry:

In fact, here is a shot of Johnny Depp doing the two fingers to the mouth:

And can also be found at Bohemian Grove, which supposedly has one Christian statue and that is of Saint John of Nepomuk, who was the King of Bohemia (and confessor to the Queen; hence his iconography showing him doing the same pose of silence):

Here’s a screenshot online of the supposed statue at Bohemian Grove:

Now that we have a working knowledge and undeniable proof that the Illuminati, Aleister Crowley, entertainment industry, Egyptian god Horus, et. al. are all into this concept of a vow of silence, let’s take a look around us and see what imagery we can find (and just to be transparent, I found a slew of images for this post on ExposingTheMatrix, which has several more worth looking at):
First up, let’s take a look at these ‘child-god’ figures (conceptual of the Aeon of Horus where we worship children) from Nickelodeon and Disney where they recruit young stars and brainwash them to unleash the Illuminati symbolism on the most impressionable children of the world.
Here’s Selena Gomez:

Beyond those young stars, we have some of the ‘usual suspects’ that we’ve seen Illuminati symbolism from the rest of the music industry. Lady Gaga giving the vow of silence, the ‘666’ hand gesture, and the All Seeing Eye of Horus:

Your boy Eminem has been vacillating between exposing the Illuminati and serving it for years:

Here’s another variation we see with the mouth covered up. This shot is presumably for censorship, but whatever:

Don’t forget Young Weezy Baby:

IlluminatiWatcherDotCom Lil Wayne vow of silence

Now let’s also be fair, and understand that the rap culture/artists seem to embrace the credo of ‘Stop Snitchin’ which basically is street code for not talking to the police about crimes committed (taken from the Mafia’s ‘Omerta’). Much of the fingers to the mouth stuff we see is in reference to lyrics about not speaking to the fuzz. Example:

But what do we make of images such as these where Lil Wayne points to his head as if to say that he’s a dead man if he speaks about the music industry?:

I’ll update this post as I find more of these symbolic images, which can be expected because that’s what the entertainment industry does; constant attacks on the subconscious.
