One of the main problems with race relations is not racist whites but 'liberal' whites that are ignorant of and underestimate how ingrained racism is among their people.
The presidential race and victory of President Elect Barack Obama has brought the sickness of white supremacy to the forefront. From conservative white radio host to white elected officials to their own FAUX News network; the hatred, fear and ignorance of white America is once again rearing it's ugly head.
Question is, do whites have the desire to face their demons and the fortitude to destroy them or, in this age of economic hard-times, give into their demons and bringing about the worst event in American history - Race War.
If the history of the white man is any indication to the future of race relations, Black people, brace yourself for the worst.
While many would like to hide their head in the sand and ignore the very real issue of what happens when the water hole sinks and survival of the fittest begins. I would gather face the challenge head on.
Scapegoating and placing the blame on the minority and weak occures when those in power and control don't want to face their own sins and shortcomings. Combine that with the shrinking of resources, jobs and necessities of life and you are looking at a powder keg ready to explode.
Now facts have surfaced that whites where killing Blacks in the after math of Hurricane Katrina. But the manifest hatred toward Blacks did start with the residents of Algiers Point, the mainstream media labeled Black refugees, Blacks were abandoned by their own government for weeks without water or food. They were rescued only to find themselves in toxic mobile homes and the story goes on and on.
That was only a sign of white America's disdain for Black Americans. We saw it in the first OJ trial and Jena 6. We see it when it comes to reporting missing Black children and white corporate crime (ie Madoff) compared to Black street crime.
The real evidence of the sickness of white supremacy came out during PE Obama's run for President and continues till this very hour. None of the darker races are immune form the sickness, as seen with the genocide in Palestine (illegally called Israel), the unjust embargoes toward Cuba, the neglect in Haiti and Africa, the war in Afghanistan and Iraq, the militant posture toward North Korea and Iran and the story goes on.
If we can not get alone together in peace, the Honorable Elijah Muhammad said, Separation is The Answer. It may not seem sensible or feasible now (nor did the Exodus to the Children of Israel) but give it time, if 'liberal' whites don't make a firm stand against the hate speech on conservative radio and TV America is headed toward a deep, dark pit.
Take it or let it alone.
