"Not God Bless America, God Damn America.
That's in the Bible, for killing innocent people.
God Damn America for treating her citizens as less than human.
God Damn America for as long as she acts like
she is God and she is supreme.
The United States government has failed the vast
majority of her citizens of African descent.
Think about this, think about this."


to deny this, is to deny US history.
the US Constitution is full of noble purpose and intent, but the
government fails to impose in their decisions, the very Spirit of the
same document when creating Law.
This is as true for blacks as for ANY race.
on the issue of blacks- anger and hatred does not go away easy.
civil rights were only accorded to blacks some forty years ago, and
there is still some tensions felt from that.
It is a shame that the Rev. Wright could not address this issue, using
his Church not to incite hatred, but to inspire tolerance.
how different his message is from that of Dr. Martin Luther King.


Dr. King said the same thing, not in so many words (people had better
vocabularies 40 years ago...)
