Colin Powell is a Racist.

Colin Powell endorsed Obama instead of McCain so now the Conservatives are blaming it on race.

White Power vs. Black Empowerment

There has been a lot of talk in the media lately about Trinity United Church, Pastor Wright's church and the church that Barack Obama has attended for many years. In much of the media it is being labeled a "black separatist" church. I have looked all through their website, watched videos on Youtube of church events. Hmmm, no real inclination of separatism. Just because a lot of white folks are scared to go to places that have a predominately black presence does not mean that they are separatists it means that thewhite folks that choose not to patronize are the separatists.

The church, as goes their motto, is unapologetically black. Although white folks want to pretend that because blacks now have equal rights under the law that racism is officially over and does not exist in any shape or form any more and that centuries of past institutionalized racism has had no lasting affect on American society. In fact, any black person who dares to speak on racism themselves are the true racists. We are not allowed to be pro-black because in the white man's mind black pride is equated to white pride. And we all know what white pride leads to. However, there is a significant difference between a historically dominant group showing pride as opposed to an oppressed group. The oppressed group is playing catch up and showing pride in themselves despite the fact that they are led to believe that they are less than nothing. It's mostly an inward thing, to uplift the individual and the community as a whole. When the dominant group promotes their pride it has more to do with the group(s) they are oppressing and has nothing to do with bettering themselves.

Any group that espouse white power or pride are undoubtedly racist & separatist. I challenge any reader to find a self-professed white power group that allows members of other ethnicities or even willingly works with them on any level. Now, let us look at some of the most racialist of black groups. Let's take the Nation of God's and Earths for example. Now, this group believes that the black man is god and that the white man is a devilish creature bred by an evil black scientist. This group of all groups actually has bonafide white members. They have worked with white people that they consider friends. Their motto is that they are "...not pro-black or anti-white but pro-righteousness and anti-devilishment." With all that said, this group has some of the most racist ideology of any black group I have ever heard yet somehow they still remain non-hate and non-separatist. That's the difference between black power and white power.

Random Thoughts on Obama, Wright & Race

Sorry for the non-linear manner of this post...like the title states these are random thoughts...

First of all people have to realize there is a difference between racial and racist. When someone is being racial they notice color but the racist not only notices color but makes judgments based on it. Mr. Wright is a racialist, most Americans are, but is he a racist? Perhaps but not because of anything in the speeches being looped around the clock. Neither does his physical actions indicate so.

Anything that blacks do for social advancement that does not fit the conservatives ideal of how we should do it is considered racist.

I do not consider Obama a sell out for distancing himself from Mr. Wright's controversial statements. I understand the position that the ever sensitive white America has put him in.

I have resisted for a long time from calling conservatives racist but when they constantly throw our shortcomings as black folks in our face and then turn around and get "huffy" when we point out the flaws of their community.

Like I said...random.

Black pups face doggie discrimination

Dark-coated pooches tend to linger in shelters the longest. Big, black dogs are often the last to be adopted from animal shelters — a phenomenon known in pet rescue circles as "black dog syndrome." Read complete article here.

Although this article says NOTHING about racism how much do you want to bet that the conservative talk radio shows will pick this up and complain how the liberal media is now trying to make issue of white racism against all things black including dogs? haha you know it...

Christiane Amanpour; Radical Muslim

Reporter Christiane Amanpour worked on a three-part documentary series last year titled "God's Warriors". The program was basically about extremism within the three major Abrahamic religions, i.e. Judaism, Christianity and Islam.

Well, of course after this program aired all the racist, prejudiced and xenophobic bloggers came out of the woodwork to condemn her work. Mrs. Amanpour and CNN (the station that aired the program) were criticized for having an Arabic Muslim, who by ethnicity and religion must be biased and why did they not have a Jew report on Jewish extremism and a Christian report on Christian extremism (although they believe there is no such thing and is only inherent in the Muslim religion!)

The funny thing here is, and this is where the prejudice comes in, i.e. to PRE-JUDGE, in this case based on skin color (racism) and geographic origin (xenophobia). Christiane Amanpour is neither Arabic nor Muslim, she is PERSIAN by ethnicity and a CHRISTIAN by faith. In fact being among the Christian minority in Iran she knows first-hand about Islamic extremism from the victims' side of the fence. And she undoubtedly knows now all too well about Christian prejudice, ignorance and intolerance!

These people will claim that they are not racist, xenophobic or in any other way prejudice, however, their ignorant assumptions shows them as otherwise. Don't get me wrong! We are all human and prone to make mistakes and assumptions about others based on past experience or when there is insufficient evidence to the contrary. BUT! In this case there are plenty of clues to her real ethnicity and her true religion.

Let us look at a few of these clues, shall we?

1. Her first name is not Arabic/Islamic it is FRENCH and IN FACT is a variation of CHRISTIAN, as in CHRIST!

2. Her last name is not Arabic or Islamic, it is PERSIAN!

3. She attended the CHRISTIAN schools Holy Cross Covenant & New Hall which is a Roman CATHOLIC school.

4. Her family was forced to flee Iran when it BECAME AN ISLAMIC STATE.

5. If she was Muslim, as a woman she would only be allowed to marry a Muslim man, HOWEVER, she is married to a man who has a decidedly UNISLAMIC name.

6. Her child has a curiously UNISLAMIC name.

7. Her sister has a curiously UNISLAMIC name.

8. Her mother is a CHRISTIAN.

I mean, nothing about her says "I am a Muslim" other than the fact that her father is a Muslim, who was evidently such an extremist radical that he married a Christian woman and allowed his children to be raised Christian. Those damn Muslims won't stop until we've all converted to Christianity!
