It should surprise me,that there are so many articles every day about instances of racism, but somehow it doesn't. I'm blown away by what I read, but surprised I am not. In fact, that is the very reason I collect all these and put them here on this site. My premise is that there is so much bigotry left in the world that I'm amazed when people tell me racism is gone or that it is a non issue anymore. This is proof, its out there, and everyone has to do their part in ending it.
Jerry Falwell has been let off the hook for his racism this
article claims. "The vitriolic reverend blamed 9/11 on atheists, pro-choice advocates, gay and lesbian people, and the American Civil Liberties Union. He blamed AIDS on homosexuals and called the prophet Muhammad a terrorist."
N*W*C* or “N*gger Wetb*ck Ch*nk,” is a theater group battling racism. View this article " N*W*C* is a play supporting diversity, one intelligently crafted to use “shocking revelations.” not anger, to “de-power” some of the most derogatory words in the English language. Off-stage, its actors lead educational workshops on race at several local schools.
"The Anti-Defamation League released a report that said white supremacy is on the rise on the West Coast of North America and that Trail is the Canadian beachhead of the most active group, the violent and racist white supremacist organization Volksfront International."

Jerry Fallwell was just nasty. He was lauded for telling the truths behind the destruction of America, and the world: because people have abortions, are in same-sex relationships and more. He actually believes that because people choose their own happiness that the world is full of bomb-toting criminals who want to destroy all...
I wonder if he ever thought that maybe the reason there are so many problems in the world, is because folks like him limit people's ability to be true to their selves. When one cannot live up to their full potential, they feel trapped, angry, depressed, and the like. When we are all told to be pro-life, heterosexual, religious, and more, we are being forced to live under constriction...it only takes time before we blow our top.
Good riddance.
