IS BLACK FOREVER?
SARA was disturbed as she contemplated recent interviews with Sen. Obama, Sec. Rice, Sec. Powell and the taped segments of the left Rev. Wright sermons. The most distressing conclusion was.. that a color blind American Society is unrealistic, and probably not possible. The gang and I discussed this:
HANNA THE WISE: These 4 accomplished , super-famous black people were a source of great comfort to the large non- black population of America..They had risen to the top !!A plethora of acievements..including every academic, social, military, and governmental success imaginable. They seemed blessed to the onlookers eyes.. ably reaching heights that Americans believed could be reached by any American with ability , determination , and hard work. One of us. Now, we hear Obama, in his own voice, reading his own words on his book tape..echoing sayings of the Rev. J Wright , but more importantly the ideas. And these ideas are the ideas of the Black Liberation Theolog: , a loyalty pledge to Africa, the overthrow of the white man, etc. The ideas have been practiced only by countries that have shown no respect for either black men or white. So why? The Trinity church's web site uses one word more than any other . The word : BLACK.
LYNN THE DEVIOUS: well, since there is a religious stage for this reverend's doctrines..can one say that GOD created the color scheme of man.? Was it a system to differentiate men? Our laws see all men as equal under the law, but has GOD made other differences in the psyche of races that ultimately repudiate the hope of oneness?
In this country..the laws , first allowing slavery, then separatism were sources of great sorrow and degradation in our earlier times. We hopefully moved from segregation to integration ....BUT.. then in the 60's , the integrated eagerly and voluntarily embraced segregation in every aspect , as the opportunites , education, and advancements proliferated. ...But ..the successful new college blacks became the Black union, blacks elected to congress, even from white districts became The Black Caucus. And thus it went. THE BLACK PROPENSITY is TO CLOAK ITSELF IN A BLACK BARBED WIRE PRISON, where every movement of body and soul brings hurt.This is what bled out of remarks by our beloved Condi Rice,(america has a birth defect) and the hugely respected Colin Powell, as they responded with comments on the Rev. Wright role as Sen. obamas chosen pastor, friend, church.. his louis farrakan association, the newer friendship with William Ayres, weather underground hero. Very depressing. Their ultimate explanation :BLACK.
JERRY THE MATHEMATICIAN: The non-black melting pot that is the rest of America is puzzled.The vast majority of the swelling population ,( huge immigration numbers,) indicate.. people enter this country because there is more opportunity than anywhere else in the world. Certainly, NO ONE IS BEATING DOWN THE DOORS OF AFRICA TO EMIGRATE THERE.., OR CUBA, OR THE REPRESSIVE MUSLIM COUNTRIES. Blacks born in America are also not emigrating...!Yet.. society seems to accept bad behaviour, poor academic standards, unhealthy social behaviours, and as in the OJ trial ,shocking jury decisions. The reason is: BLACK.
MELINDA THE SIMPLE: Sen Obama has a white mother, he says..but from his own book in his own words he describes his long journey to achieve his blackness, not his whiteness.
PORTIA THE PHD:(she was in school with hillary) ..I have a very good friend who is white.
