Re: Three rules for Black Republicans
I grew up in a town that was 80% African-american. I have experienced racism my whole life but not just from whites against blacks but the other way around.
I have known racist white folks but just as many racist black folks, if not more.
We cannot change ignorant people.
My child's doctor back in Mississippi was a black man from Zimbabwe. He came to our town as a missionary of sorts to help the poor in the "african-american" community. He told me he was so let down because they weren't the victims that he thought they were. He didn't see the racism that he had been taught existed in Mississippi from his liberal friends in New York. He said they have free healthcare, food, shelter, and education and will not do anything to better their lives.
My point of sharing this is that, while there is racism and backwoods people it is not racism that hold anybody down in society. If you work hard and prove yourself no one can stop you.
