My friend and I were talking about Obama’s speech on race. The very thing that he was trying to transcend in this campaign, to prove that Americans in general had changed, that a man was not judged by the color of his skin but by the content of this character. Even though I knew RACE is always the front runner, I had HOPE this time, it would not!
For me (52) and my mother (75) this political year has been the most important one in our life time. To have the chance to vote for a woman or a black man for the president of the United States, oh well a glorious time in America’s ugly history.
What I would like to know how anyone got a tape of Rev. Wright from seven (7) years ago? My friend says the news media has people looking for “the dirt” on different topics and ultimately came across this “dirt”. Most black churches tape the service for purchase or to be used by the shut-ins. I think they were looking at his church because it was reported that the church gave Minister Farrakhan an award. And there are a lot of people who HATE Minister Farrakhan! I’m not one of them. I don’t agree with everything he says but most of what he says is true. I know what the Nation of Islam has done for Blacks in America. Blacks that don’t agree with that statement are lying to themselves and you.
All this madness about Rev. Wright makes me wonder:
Are we voting for Rev. Wright or Senator Barack Obama?
The racists of the campaigns, the major political parties, the news media had to move on to people he associated with BECAUSE they couldn’t get shit on him. I can get some shit on Hillary and John.
My friend and I had this discussion about churches and the differences. NO ONE confronts the pastor of their church. Look at the cases of little boys that have been molested by the priest, you know the Catholic priests. Some never stop going to the church and look at the length of time it took most of them to come forward. I went to a mixed church with my parents for years and part of my adult life. There were things that I didn’t agree with, I didn’t leave, I didn’t tell the minister I didn’t like what he said! THE DOCTRINE OVERRULED THOSE FEWS SERMONS I DID NOT AGREE WITH!!
America is a contradiction.
How is it that individuals in America have to pay for their crimes (courts, lawyers, judges, juries, prisons)? Why is it different for America? THE GOVERNMENT OF AMERICA HAS COMMITTED CRIMES against other countries and men !!!! Once someone says that, ok correction when a black person says it, they hate America. I don't hate America. I believe you pay for what you do, what goes around comes around. I believe there are spiritual laws, when you break them there is a penalty attached even if you repent. When a black person states that there were Jews involved with the slave trade, they become anti-Semitic. No one denies the Holocaust including Germany. When a black person speaks about self reliance, self love, self help they become hate filled or even racist.
Why do some people get mad when you tell the truth? Then they try and turn it around you.
They pick out some small portion of what Barack says like “typical white person” and get offended. When the truth is when a white person sees one black man or a group of black young men, THEY BECOME FRIGHTEN, OR SCARED. There have been studies done on it. The only way a white person would say that’s not true is if they have never been around black men and had that experience. The truth is if I see a group of white young men, I’m scared too of what they might do.
Here are some truths:
Eugenics
Sterilization program (Blacks) in North Carolina
Tuskegee experiment
Unfair sentencing laws
In America you never pay for your crime, it follows you and stops
you from getting a job and voting.
Scientist created the first reported case of AIDS in Africa
from the polo vaccine
I could go on, some of you will get my point but most of you will not.
