A white elephant is a possession which its owner cannot dispose of and whose cost, particularly that of maintenance, is out of proportion to its usefulness. The term derives from the story that the kings of Siam, now Thailand, were accustomed to make a present of one of a white elephant to courtiers who had rendered themselves obnoxious, in order to ruin the recipient by the cost of its maintenance. In modern usage, it is an object, scheme, business venture, facility, etc., considered without use or value

So the "white elephant" is a war tactic, to passively destabilize and weaken a target.

Amen Ankh Urban Farm is an Indigo Native American initiative. We as well as many other Black farmers were fostered- (like Green acres Urban Farm and Research project) to work with Cultivate KC. We Submitted applications for Grants, through Missouri Agricultural agencies... and participated with the disadvantaged Farmers conferences... All of Our grant applications were spuriously rejected and we were promptly removed from their directory list of Urban Farmers... Yet our ideas were used and implemented by gentrifiers...
We know that gentrifiers want to move our (Afro-American) families out of the metro midtown areas and into their abandoned suburbs as renters-not owners. They want to relegate Black people as "consumers" and never owners... Gentrifiers don't want to promote the growth of Black economics within the metro Kansas City areas, ergo-They don't want to share power... We are blocked from building our own subdivisions or intentional communities, by caucasian owned banks, investors, and creditors. We are corralled to follow behind the gentrifiers from the old guard, of JC Nichols, Halls, Truman, etc... Yes, Caucasians, who seek to re-segregate the midtown areas surrounding the Power and "Light" district. Monies have been siphoned from the Jazz district and even the repairs of Freedom Fountain- (east of the plaza fountains,) to economically enrich the crossroads and downtown areas.

The White Elephant concept creates "The Big fish in the small pond" concept, where one "token" suffices for many... All they will have to do to control this fish, is to attack their reputation- etc, or withhold money and access- (like they did with ACECC, in Kansas City, or what they still do with "Oprah Winfrey"- They will latch on to their small successes to coral money to their own private pipelines, while the patrons pay- and exhaust their resources to expand and multiply their objectives...
As Black businesses, we must work cooperatively and not competitively... Economics is a Family-based system. We must formulate our own Gnome family systems. These independent Business owners and multi-level marketing scams create Isolation, division and competition among the economic relationships that are built...
Gentrifiers, have created their own Intended sustainable communities, around a mecca of services and access, with the decline and destruction of the environment for fossil fuels, instead of living in the outskirts of towns in their white flight areas. super cities are now being planned.
