We must learn to live together as brothers ore perish together as fools.

Here Is some information about the history of christianity and its role in racism and slavery. This page gives quotes from the Bible and shows how the text have been interpreted to justify hate and racism. "Maybe that means that using the Bible isn't a valid defense of an idea? Could be..."

This is a piece from the BBC about child slavery in Haiti. I want make the point that in the US Cuban's are permitted to come into the US as political prisoners of Communism. Right next door in the country of Haiti, the poorest country in the western hemisphere, Haitians are literally prisoners to a nearly non existent lawless government. Haiti has been plagued with ruthless dictators and bands of gangs and some of the most serious poverty the world has seen. The one Democratically elected president they had was removed by the US military when a conflict between him and bands of guerilla armies arose. Rather than give military support to the president the US removed him and let Haiti pick up the pieces. I make this point because in general the US policy for dealing with Haiti is not to deal with Haiti. Haitians are sent back from the US upon arriving and Cubans are welcomed with open arms practically. Many claim this to be a racist decision of the United States government because haitians are black and cubans generally are not. Whle the conditions are not great in Cuba (especially for the once rich upper class in Cuba) by comparison to Haiti, Cuba is like a five star resort. Either the US wants to see Haiti fail or it has serious blinders on.

Every day for the next few days I'm going to put up another part of several part series of Jordan Maxwell's called "Who Controls the World?" Here is part three.
