Hello Greg,
Ok, racist.
You think calling me names of something I am not bothers me?
No.
We are all racists and bigots. What we do to overcome our own
racism and bigotry, as individuals and a society, is up to us.
I am not the first to say this. Others have also said the same
thing. In basically the same words, or words to that effect.
Andrew Young, who grew up in New Orleans, went on to become
US ambassador to the United Nations, and served as mayor of Atlanta,
Georgia. As a child, he was told he could no longer play with his
neighbor, who was white. For no other reason than his neighbor was
white.
He was right about what he said about racism and bigotry. And so
is everybody else who are saying the same thing.
The owner of the Washington Redskins has finally come to his
senses, deciding to change the name of his football team.
The owner of the New Orleans Saints and New Orleans Pelicans
has also come to her senses, deciding to change the name of her
beloved Dixie Beer.
We should all kneel and pray that others do the same. The owner
of the Cleveland Indians needs to make a name change. The owner of
the Atlanta Braves needs to make a name change. The owner of the
Kansas City Chiefs needs to make a name change. They all know the
drill.
Singing the Black National Anthem at football games is not enough.
Liberty and Justice belong to all, not just for a select few.
Black Lives Really Do Matter.
