"Do
racist think that because they are white, they are superior? " One
does not have to be white to be a racist. Racism can be identified
anywhere in the world. it is when one group appears different from
the other in skin color, culture, class or national origin,
discrimination often occurs against the other group, most often
based in myth and misinformation. Without
intervention this prejudice turns hateful, each group no longer
relates to each other as human beings, but something sub-human. The
trappings of Greed promises money and power over something not human.
Again attempting to justify themselves to benefit from the labor or
possessions of others because it is a crime against humanity. But the “self-righteous”claim
their actions are based in the benevolence of their faith, for
Christians the biblical Jesus himself. From
my view point, religions who in the name of Faith and God fail to see
or understand ALL individuals born to Earth are the children of God,
deserving respect of all humanity, and are born with His gift given of free
will, The tools for individual learning, self discipline, decision
making, and love for the human family. No human man or woman has the
authority to usurp the Spiritual authority of God and of Jesus.
However, I digress – whites believing themselves to have superior
intelligence over all unlike themselves. The
challenge for whites to recognize their racial obsession is vested
years of denial, mistakenly believing racism does not affect them.
However present day scientific data show it
the white racist who appear to be more fixated
on Racism than others. This
psychological race-skin color fixation is grounded in how the white male
self identifies. Please do understand the problem is much deeper
than the simple example I've given here. Where
did this idea of Superiority come from? The Puritans in1630, "The
Divine Right to Occupy The Land." These Christians from Europe,
believed themselves Agents of God, and therefore it was God's will
that they should inhabit all the World. This
Superiority over all others came from their European education and
experience of the time: the flat earth society, Inquisitions, Witch
trials and "bleeding" for what ails you. While parts of
Africa, medical men were using fine surgical steel implements to perform cataract
surgery on the eye,while Europe was in the dark ages. Getting
closer to the issue, several weeks ago - a noted politician being
interviewed with his self-styled white superiority mindset and body language, pumped
with prejudice and bigotry, Pat Buchanan confirmed his bias, "whites
are superior in intelligence". But the example he referenced to
highlight that superior intelligence, creators of the U.S.
Constitution. Perhaps Mr Buchanan had a 'Betsy Ross' moment. The U.S.
Constitution is a product of the League of Iroquois' The Great Law Of
Peace, except our Constitution framers did not include total equality for women, women were excluded until the 1920 Voting rights. Racism is Prejudice and Bigotry turned hate.
Prejudice is an unquestioned emotional belief in a falsehood believed
to be truth. In other words, Prejudice is an emotional commitment to
Ignorance. Bigotry is swelled up pride, with feelings of Superiority. What a
Statesmen and advocate Buchanan would be speaking the whole truth for
all humanity . While I strongly disagree with most of Buchanan's
ideology, his honesty is appreciated and respected. This
white racist fixation is controlled by the disease of Racism, it is as
addictive as any drug like Heroin or Cocaine, where the addicted
behaviors is liken to a drug addict on the prowl, unpredictable
behavior, thoughtless and selfish no matter the cost. (sounds like
the 2012 Congress to me.) Hope
