REPENTANCE FROM RACISM

Repentance from racism:

It is not a general apology. ‘I’m sorry for your struggle!’

It is not just confessing your dirty little racist secret: ‘I clutched my purse that time I got on the elevator with a Black guy with a suit - and he was my interviewer!Lol.’

It’s also not being ‘non-racist’ or ‘anti-racist’ to make yourself feel better. It’ll only leave you attacking all those racists over there.

And it’s certainly not saying, FIRE ALL OF THE WHITE COPS FROM ELSEWHERES!

While it’s appreciated that you were persuaded, if my page disappeared tomorrow, someone else would persuade you otherwise with ‘NOT ALL’ and the like 

and you would lack the spiritual and moral conviction to stand against their racist reasoning.

And repentance is certainly not a hat tip or salute in my direction while you continue to go about your racist merry way.

Repentance is taking a 180 degree turn from where you were going.

If that seems easy, it only solidifies the deep state of denial that you are in.

Alcoholics have a secular group called AA where they must acknowledge a HIGHER POWER. Think about. Just breathe in and out and think about it.

A worldwide non religious group that admits that they are POWERLESS to deal with this addiction without some form of spiritual/ outside the flesh help.

And the addiction of racism is far, far worse. I have yet to see one racist admit that they are POWERLESS over their addiction.

Not one has taken a fearless moral inventory. Not one continually strives to make amends. You’re all just like dogs barking at one another: ‘racist, racist, racist’.

It’s painful to watch and painful to participate when you call us to give our input, not realizing that ANY correction to your progressive worldview can lead to us getting

fired, demoted, ostracized, targeted and killed.

I’m a christian and I’ve never fasted or prayed all night about my ingrained misogyny.

Because deep down, I’ve deemed it something that needs to change but not something that is abhorrently unacceptable in my life and in my thoughts and in my being.

If you are not spiritual, you are conditioned to hold back on the problem until a solution presents itself. 

And if no solution is forthcoming, your makeup will deny that the problem exists at all.

What’s worse is that the more you deny, the better your job opportunities become. That’s called negative reinforcement. And since society is racist, society protects you and nurtures and cocoons you.

Even when you’re spiritually inclined, you’re surrounded by other spiritual people who suffer from the same malady.

No one cries out to the Almighty because everyone is blind and sight becomes a stigma.

If you could even begin to grasp the vastness of the denial that is within you and all around you, then it might humble you enough to the point where you at least stand a chance!

Scripture is useful, but without spiritual guidance, it’s just words on a page.

Pray about it. Just pray about it. And I will continually pray for you.

THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN PERSUASION AND CONVICTION

THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN PERSUASION AND CONVICTION Decades ago, in my teens, my oldest brother and I had a talk where I said, “Can you believe that they’re having another gay pride parade?” He told me that he participated in a gay pride parade. Then we just stared at one another - and because many don’t know how to communicate without language, I will translate: Me: (But you’re not gay) Him: (True, but our struggle is their struggle and theirs is ours) Me: (Hmmm. Now I have to rethink everything because this is my brother whom I love challenging my core beliefs). I was persuaded that day. Today, my brother is long dead but I’m still reposting. That’s called CONVICTION.

SO WHERE’S THE UPROAR…?

 So where is the uproar when not one but two Black women world champions bow out from their sport because of the racist media for health reasons?  Their media of course focuses in on the “health reasons“ but we all know the truth!  Did Michael Jordan put a black tape over his mouth to stop speaking to the racist press for health reasons? Did Eddie Murphy only give interviews with Bryant Gumbel because of the racist press for health reasons? When we look at the interviews at the races press conducted with Mohammed Ally, they’re all about how he’s slowing down. No one mentions how our government took three years from him while he was in his boxing Prime! White people, boy! Can’t wait ‘til we have our own media. Everything changes.

WE DEAL WITH RACISM ON ALL FRONTS

WE DEAL WITH RACISM ON ALL FRONTS We deal with systemic racism on all fronts. We mentor; we start programs to protect our kids; we fire ALL of the white cops from elsewheres patrolling and brutalizing Black spaces who funnel in the drugs and the guns with impunity then lock up our kids for having (or using) them. And where do kids get guns for drive-bys? (Rhetorical) And do an inordinate amount of crimes occur in Black spaces in Baltimore and Detroit and L.A. as opposed to NY because Black folk in our city have more character and higher morals? (Also rhetorical) It’s because cops are not allowed to pump these things in here! We do have CHILD rape rings here which rival Florida, Texas and possibly even California (California is a dense, big state). We need to fire ALL of the white cops from elsewheres patrolling and brutalizing Black spaces! And regarding the white people and the Black folk who worship them who aid systemic racism through complicity, ignorance and arrog...
