OBAMA, NOT THE 1ST BLACK(MULATTO) PREZ

I was childlike about the pervasive racism and the hatred of (le couleur de ma peau) my skin color that was in existence until I came to the United States. You see, I am from a country where my forefathers and mothers emencipated neg (negros) from slavery since 1804. Thus, I did not have to deal with that back home.

From a dog being let loosed after me; Fort Pierce, FL; police car almost ran me over
at a stop sign, New Jersey; to getting the look from both black and white folks for being with a white woman, Burmingham, AL. The latter was recently. And for the time that I have been in the U. S., I always hear people say that: If you have one drop of black blood in you, you are black. I have been here for over 17 years now and have been around people from different walk of life, shapes, and colors. Albeit I've used that drop of black blood phrase myself, I never trully made it part of my philosophy. For I knew better that an offspring of a black and white couple is a...Mulatto, except if you are Michael Jackson. If that drop of black blood is really what defines a person who is mixed in the United States as being black, allelujah...because we can proudly say that Mr. Obama is not our First Black President.
The first five can, effortlessly, pass for white which was common during colonization and still is nowadays.

When it comes to conversation about race and nationality, this country is ill educated on such issues. And I still believe that the majority of the whites will do what it takes to conserve their supremacy. So much that these days some are finally seing the brightness of the skin color. In reality, Mr. Obama is not black; he is a mulatto, and the First Black President that black America is looking for has already presided over this country.
While some are celebrating the winning of Mr. Obama, I think we all missed the true result of this passed election. An election that reminded us that-We are still a divisive over the race issue. A black, white, mulatto, Asian, or native American president should not represent an ethnic group, but America as a whole. Because this country is not just black and white.

HOLOCAUST, CHARADE OR GENUINE?









If Hitler did treat the Jews as declared by history; how could they execute such hostility toward the Palestinians? Antagonizing a nation that is standing up for its land and its people, is only making Hamas a lot more potent. Was the holocaust an excuse to establish the Jewish state? I don't think Black Folks could ever crusade the world and enslave the people of the crusaded lands.
