SUBJECT: Affirmative Action

America always had an Affirmative Action Program and Set-Asides for the
white privileged and their children. There was an invisible sign,
which read “Blacks need not apply.” This practice went on into the sunset,
and met at the O.K. Corral of economic prosperity.

Even the bathrooms, restaurants, theaters, armed forces, water
fountains, churches etc., were all set-asides for privileged whites and their
children. They benefited tremendously and were able to send their
children to Technical Schools, Colleges and Universities. While blacks were
relegated to discrimination, inferior schools denied their civil and
human rights. This was no myth of the imagination---this is American
history. In addition, many White Christians gave their approval by silent
consent decree.

Today, we hear! “I had nothing to do with what my ancestors did,”
which may be true! However, Jesus had nothing to do with Adam and Eve
committing sin in the Garden. Yet, he dedicated his life to eliminate the
inequities in society without oppressing others directly or indirectly
for self-gain. Jesus said, “Love your neighbor as you love yourself,”
this is an easy undertaking when God’s love exists within the human
heart.

Our conscious is what distinguishes us from other animals. Therefore,
until Americans desire for their neighbor, the same things that they
themselves and their children enjoys. Then they will continue to lose
their humanity--on the world stage of respectability. Peace!
