Delusions

Many people today suffer from the delusion that we are “post racial”. With the bombing during the Boston Marathon a person of interest was held…simply because he was Arab and was running away from the scene…please…everyone was running away from the scene. There is a flip side to this coin. My daughter’s fiance, who happens to be Hispanic and they share two racially mixed children, does not speak Spanish, but everywhere he goes here in Orlando, people speak to him in Spanish because he “looks” Spanish. We have to stop this. Until we are one people, speaking one language with one spiritual consciousness and no poverty…lines will continue to be drawn in the sand. We teach our children to draw lines through our own words and behaviors without intending to, but they learn racism. They are not born with it. What can we do as a united people to stop this?
