Hi,
Christine,
I am the co-founder of Work It, Mom! and just wanted to say welcome. If you have any questions about using the site, please let me know. (And you've got one of my top 5 favorite movies up there:) |
I am an Native NYer and lost a close friend in 911 (a police officer). And so, I stand divided on this issue.
I still believe people who have not visited a black church do not understand the context of what Rev. Wright was saying.
He wasn't speaking to people who aren't racist, but to those Americans who are and have left a trail of racist activity abroad and home - that has made us all a target for others who lump all together and see us as a collective foreign enemy.
You're right that's not fair to any American (who isn't racist) b/c when that happens a bullet or a missile disguised as an airplane doesn't see color and hurts us all.
Please see Obama's comments on http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_7piGy0u43c.
I think the sound bites were taken out of context and don't give an honest reflection of who and what this man has done for many underserved Americans in Chicago or why Obama aligned himself with him over the years.
See who Rev. Wright really is on http://www.tucc.org/pastor.htm
