Obama Haters Hide Behind a Faceless Avatar: The Continuous Path of Hate in America
The "Clash of Titans" would better describe how America has evolved into a greater and better nation pertaining to race relations. But, the reality of the African-American plight continues to move on through light and dark matter pertaining to race relations, and equality.
It would seem that the end to misery of "Jim Crow" would have been buried with the ills and plight of the civil rights movement. The movement for equality for the average working class African-American men and women continues to be a bittersweet one, despite how far African-American people have evolved in American society.
The playing field - as far as employment and other opportunities are concerned, for many African-Americans in today's time; the status quo has become overshadowed in light of how many African-Americans still struggle to keep their head above water. There is a stark difference in comparrison to how well off the majority of White-Americans are, in contrast to the majority of most African-Americans.
The Obama haters who hide behind faceless avatars are not true patriotic Americans, 99% of these people are the ones that continue to preach hate and spread that evil thing that divides a country instead of uniting and mending the broken pieces of an unfinished puzzle.
In reference to President Obama's job approval, in my personal opinion I firmly believe that his actions have help improve the quality of life for all Americans. Unfortunately, there are many White-Americans who feel that the president is less than half of a real man, and many of these people spread the vile seed of hatred throughout the web, and in the course of their private conversations.
There is not much else to say in reference to how far we are still off from that perfect relationship, pertaining to white and black. Hopefully, one day, many of these people that hide behind faceless avatars will be moved within their heart to move and work in the right direction for the better good of America, and become the America that Reverend Dr. King spoke of.

Post a CommentAlyce, it is quite disturbing that our country is still dealing with prejudice, bigotry, and hatred pertaining to African-Americans - and how this will always be a thing that keeps our nation divided as one less union, races separated by the privileged few.
I am hopeful, however, that younger generations, may grow up less bigoted than their parents (of course, I thought by now, we would have seen the results of lessened bigotry, due to the Civil Rights movement of the 1950s/60s), having seen a brown skinned man and granddaughter of slaves sitting in the White House. That is, they would not think it unusual. Yet it seems the situation has gathered together the haters and as things change, they remain the same.
President Obama has done some things of which I disagree; but I am so tired of discussions, anywhere on the net, where the majority of those who comment, talk about his skin color or ethnic background, nary a word about issues. Sadder, as Bernadette points out, is elected officials, wanna be presidents, news commentators, radio and TV talk show hosts whose bigotry is thinly disguised. Yet call them on it, and they whine, that they are being unfairly called what they are: racists.
It's sad [especially] as Americans we have not yet overcome seeing past ones race. Racism has to be carefully taught. Children do not come into the world hating people of different races. It takes years of reinforcement by parents and friends. I taught my children and granddaughter when they were very young you are not allowed to hate someone for something they can never change, the color of their skin! Thank you for writing this article.
Thank you Bernadette and Woodgate for leaving your comment on this article, your post are greatly appreciated. I would also like to thank Lodie for being a loyal friend of mine.
Thanks for a great article.
I suppose there will always be some form of bigotry in the human experience. If not racial bigotry, then economic or religious bigotry. We all have a tendency to find fault with others and use that as an explanation for any suffering that we endure, real or perceived. Education is the key here that will diminish the bigotry in our society but let there be no mistake; there will always be those few troglodytes that refuse to move out of their dark caves into the light. Their ability to survive over time and through succeeding generations coincides with poor overall economic conditions and when, as Edmund Burke once said "... good men do nothing."
It really is sad to watch so many well-dressed people sitting in high places pretending to care for the masses, acting as if no one sees through the charade. It reminds me of the old joke punchline, "Are you going to believe me, or your lying eyes?" When they speak on camera they do it so fast you wonder if they breathe; are they human. No matter what facts are presented to them they overlook them and talk as fast as they can, disregarding truth no matter how obvious. The next time an officer pulls you over, try that tactic and see how it plays for you. It makes me wonder where are America's psychiatrists when we need them. Oh, I forgot . . . the funding for mental health facilities was cut.
