Blacks are More Deserving than Whites. Ask Them!

Michelle Obama spoke before the NAACP and so plainly stated that Blacks have it worse than Whites in America. She offered no solutions other than they should “not rest on their laurels…increase our intensity”. This organization which is by definition racist: the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People. They are not for the advancement of all people but just colored people. Why is it that racists get to charge others with racism as if they were somehow above it. It was White peoples guilt that allowed such organization to play these major roles in America. Sure we want equality and if this NAACP will help then so be it but that is not what they are about. America wake up! There are:
NAACP
United Negro College Fund
Black Business Council
Black Entertainment TV
Black Pride Month
Congressional Black Caucus
Black Greek Letter Organizations
Black Muslims
100 Black Men of America
African American Planning Commision
African American Speaker Bureau
National Association of Black Hotel Owners, Operators and Developers
National Association of Black Accountants
Be Someone Inc.
Blacks In Government
Black Culinarians Alliance
National Association of Market Developers
Black Wall Street Merchants Association
Black Women in Sisterhood for Action
National Black Child Development Institute
National Society of Black Engineers
Jack and Jill of America
National Urban League
Miss Black America
Rainbow Push Coalition
National Action Network

This is by no means an exhaustive look at organizations which only provide service to black people. The list is nearly endless. Some are led by Poverty Pimps and Race Hustlers like the “Reverends” Jesse and Al. They feed off the emotions of their followers leaving them with less money and more hatred for the conditions they find themselves in: trapped and enslaved by the system. Yes. They are enslaved by their own minds not believing that they can be anything but poor. Most of these organizations will foster that belief while they condemn the community and the government for not giving more. And what have they added, these organizations and others like them, what have they done to improve race relations? Yes. I thought so.

Obama was supposed to be our Post-Racial President. Instead he and Michelle have become dividers-in-chief. Yet you have to recognize that with the elections looming in the near future it is time for the haters and baiters to mobilize their base. They have to get them to the voting booths. You know that hate is a strong motivator.

Now here are the folks that Eric Holder’s DOJ let go free from charges of voter fraud. How much “ramping up” do you need?

Reflections upon Discrimination and Prejudice

One would have to pretty simplistic in their thinking to believe that America has not gone through great pains because of prejudice, racism, and discrimination. In fact, I dare say that anyone who is different in any way will be singled out and treated differently. It was true for the Irish, the Italians, and the Vietnamese. It has been true for every tribe or nation that has chosen to live in our great nation. Humans seem able to discriminate on any imaginable basis including race, gender, creed, national origin, and yes even Vietnam Veteran status.

As a child I wittnessed discrimination and even participated based upon the whomever seemed vulnerable at the time. Attacks were made on the poor, the homeless, the obese, and those who were just a little more different that others. Surveys and studies have shown that "pretty and handsome" people have better chances at good jobs and obtaining help in times of need such as when a car breaks down. People having a bad hair day or no hair are the brunt of jokes. Having bad teeth or a cleft palate will surely end your hopes for an acting carreer.

To be sure, many of the reasons why people are discriminated against can be helped. Sometimes surgery or new set of clothes, or learning to speak in a socially acceptable way or using the proper language at the proper time would be of help. Some could loose weight, put on weight or get a tan. Others might try practicing casual or business communications to help aleviate some of the pressure. Many may they have little they can do, however I suspect that everyone can do a little something to lessen their plight.

It seems unlikely that individual efforts will ever make a permanent and lasting change. People are just different and no sooner that you think you have seen it all and you will see something new. Someone will find that new thing something they can discriminate against. For those people it will be as if they are an alien race setting foot on the planet for the first time. Even those who have been discriminated will line up to discriminate against these. It would appear hopeless.

Today President Obama spoke to the NAACP. Part of what he said follows:

"But make no mistake: the pain of discrimination is still felt in America. By African-American women paid less for doing the same work as colleagues of a different color and gender. By Latinos made to feel unwelcome in their own country. By Muslim Americans viewed with suspicion for simply kneeling down to pray. By our gay brothers and sisters, still taunted, still attacked, still denied their rights.

"On the 45th anniversary of the Civil Rights Act, discrimination must not stand. Not on account of color or gender; how you worship or who you love. Prejudice has no place in the United States of America."

President Obama's words call for an end to pejudice and discrimination and while he cannot mention everyone, leaving out anyone is regrettable, particularly if you are that one. You cannot help but notice that he mentioned today only the minorities he hopes to favor. If you are one he has ignored, the middle ager who has lost their job because their age, or if you are a Jehovah's Wittness and people find you offensive to work around. For every people there are differences. You can make laws and circulate petitions. We have these things now yet another speech.

Some will make speeches or write blogs and some will do nothing. Still others will continue to discriminate using none of the above, but using their place and power in life to deprive others of their freedoms. Some, because of the lofty stations can minimize and even ignore the "dull and ignorant" masses, feeling superior in intellect and therfore worthy to control our destinies. In truth all of these forms of discrimination originate in the minds of people. It is those minds that discriminate and since we all have a mind it is possible to imagine that we all discrimate and are discriminated against.

To single out a race or a religion, a people or a concept and point the finger of blame is to discriminate. Declaring your neigbor a racist, is that not discriminatory?
So who then has the right to accuse, to chose what is right, fair and just. Who can say? Whatever you choose to say or not, write or not, do or not do, nothing will happen until the heart and conscience of the hater stops hating. The solution lies within the spiritual side of man. To date there is no law that can correct that.
