White Fear (threat of being labeled “racist” causes whites to cower to the wishes of blacks)

White Fear

For the last twelve years, we at the Brotherhood Organization of a New Destiny have been fighting against the demoralization of blacks in this country by the likes of Jesse Jackson, Maxine Waters, Louis Farrakhan, Al Sharpton, the Black Caucus, the liberal elite Democratic Party, and others. But we must realize that this is not the only form of demoralization at work. While demoralizing blacks, these racist demagogues have also succeeded in demoralizing whites.

One word—“racist”—has been elevated to a sacred status, to the point now where even the threat of being labeled “racist” causes whites to cower to the wishes of blacks. The fact is that the civil rights “leaders” and elite liberal Democrats are at fault for the poor condition of the black community, not white racism. But, having largely given in to their lies, the white culture is suffering not only because blacks are free to be immoral without complaint, but also because many whites now lack character as a result of giving in to this fear.

If this lack of character continues to go unchecked, the white culture is doomed to the same pitiful state that we now find in the largely immoral black community. If no one speaks up about this, then all will suffer. Blacks will continue to fall at an even faster rate because whites will be too weak not to give in to reparations for slavery, expansion of affirmative action, and the ongoing bombardment of other governmental programs. For the sake of all cultures, we must begin to bring about a change.

In order to change, we must first realize how we came to the problem we find ourselves in today. The civil rights “leaders” of today and the elite liberal Democratic Party all understand one thing very well: the power of fear. For the last forty years, these demagogues have implanted fear in the white community—fear of being branded “racist.” As this fear escalated in the beginning of this movement, whites of the time became afraid and refused to speak against the civil rights movement as it veered from it’s original just intent to a self-serving and racist agenda shortly after the death of Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. This fear spread, allowing the legitimate black leadership to lose control, which caused the black community to become increasingly immoral. And most whites have kept silent. And thus blind blacks, following blind leaders, suffered.

Now enter today. The black community is worse off than they have ever been in the history of the United States. Ninety-two percent of blacks supported Bill Clinton, knowing he committed adultery, lied to the American people, and lied under oath. Seventy percent of black babies are born out of wedlock! There was a time when blacks would have been ashamed of these numbers. But now they don’t care. As long as the welfare check is there, the “diversity” programs are in play, and no one is speaking against them, all is well. And let me tell you, very few are speaking against them.

The sins of the parents are passed down through the generations, and as a result of whites of the past not standing up, that same weakness and lack of character has been passed to whites of the new generation. The idea of being called “racist” is as horrific as ever, and whites of the new generation have been demoralized by their parent’s lack of character and the out-of-control modern civil rights movement.

Now we have this whole nonsense of “multiculturalism” at work on college campuses. “Celebrate diversity!” is the chant, no matter how many babies these “diverse” individuals have out of wedlock, no matter how immoral they are, no matter what perverse causes they stand for. Now homosexuals are simply another group that needs to be celebrated. Now sexual perversion and amorality of all kinds are labeled “diverse” and equal to all other choices of behavior.

I’m often asked to speak on college campuses where white kids are afraid to stand up to immoral blacks for fear of being labeled a bigot, and are afraid to express their Christianity for fear of being labeled a “homophobe.” As a result of this fear, college graduates go into the world demoralized and disillusioned, depressed and beaten down. Their hearts are filled with fear and helplessness, perpetrated on them by the “celebrate diversity” crowd. And unless this changes, this will pass on to the next generation, and the next…and we will all suffer. These days most whites believe that being labeled a racist is the worst form of suffering. The dark days lurking ahead will make that suffering look like nothing. But it does not—and I repeat, does not!—have to be this way.

We at BOND realize the suffering that our nation is going through is a warfare. What we all have to realize though is that this is a spiritual warfare, not a racial warfare. It is not a fight of blacks versus whites, as the civil rights movement will tell you, but of good versus evil. The evil civil rights movement attacks good Americans who speak out against what they are doing. But the civil rights movement has no real power. All they can do is create fear through name-calling. And, amazingly, most whites have given in to this. They have adopted a false guilt for the ills of the black community.

No, the civil rights “leaders” and elite liberal Democratic Party are truly to blame, holding blacks down by keeping them angry at white America and dependent on the government. God, family, country, morality, and discipline used to be paramount in black culture, which is why blacks such as Booker T. Washington flourished long ago even though laws were against blacks. Now diversity, multiculturalism, and governmental programs are paramount, and look where blacks are because of it. We now have a society where blacks can say and do anything they want about and to whites, but whites can’t even speak up and disagree with blacks.

As soon as we realize that we are fighting a spiritual warfare, we can overcome. At BOND, we have been fighting for years. We recently held our Third Annual “National Day of Repudiation of Jesse Jackson” on Dr. King’s birthday to show the contrast between Dr. King’s dream that blacks be judged on the content of their character and Jackson’s nightmare that blacks be judged on their color. We have a BOND Home for Boys that works to restore self-sufficiency and independence that is lost in today’s anti-family black culture. We have an After School Character Building program to teach kids to love what is right and love this country.

Having stood for what is right has put as at odds with the civil rights establishment and the elite, liberal Democratic Party. We have endured all sorts of name-calling and intimidation tactics. I have personally been called “nigger,” “sellout,” “Uncle Tom,” and many other names. But I understand that I am fighting against evil. These names mean nothing to me. They are the pitiful words of cowards who do not have right on their side. By letting them pass, I am able to continue standing up for what is right: the emancipation of black America and the disbandment of the current black leadership.

It is now time for white America to realize that they are part of this same battle. The words “racist,” “bigot,” and “hatemonger,” coming from embittered followers of demagogues, mean nothing. The real strength is in those who give these words no mind and continue to stand against racism and for what is right. Enduring these attacks is a part of a blessed life. Christ said that whenever you stand up for right you will go through such attacks. If Christ had to endure, why shouldn’t we? After all, in enduring as Christ did, we come closer to God.

If Americans of all races can lay aside their fear to stand up for truth, we will all be blessed. If they do not lay aside this fear, then destruction will be widespread.

I think you give "JimRob" FAR less credit for intellectual Honesty than he has earned!

The "Board" is, however, the "arbiter" of a LOT of discussions of "racism" FAR BEYOND the "Level" @ which you post!

Watch & Learn!!

""AMERICA" has--so far--proven to be Greater Than the "Sum of it's Parts." "

Doc, but is the "sum of its parts" still operative. That is the question. And we must return to God or there will be no sum.

I guess that membership was short-lived.

well, maybe. The silly thing is that it is ludicrous to think of me as a xenophobe or racist, I don't care what a person's skin tone, pedigree, or accent of speech, or even RELIGION might be as long as they do not seek to use that as an excuse to justify violence or attacking me or my kind, or anyone else for that matter, or thinking they are above the law or deserve special privileges...

No post ever by me criticizing any actual RELIGION, only a certain conspiracy of evil to seize world domination, that is POSING as a religion.

I stand for Freedom of individual thought. I seek truth and only that. I do not fear the thought police for they want to enslave me with myths so that they eventually own my soul. I seek the strength of the Lord. And He is watching all that is taking place on Earth.

There is largely no difference between the two races now. This is all in the name of diversity.

There never was as there is no such thing as a seperate race of people. The race is homosapien.

I have that original record and it was a great song live. Sly was one of the best in concert. Back then 69? It was the double edge song hit both blacks and whites in the double standard, as did his song Stand.

They ended up in a situation where they had two mouths to feed, one black and one white. Sly didn't fit the whites all way through, simply because he was black, and the blacks were accusing him for selling out to please the whites. Sly reacted; "Don't call me nigger, whitey. Don't call me whitey, nigger" (from Don't Call Me Nigger, Whitey). These demands were disturbing and Sly retreated through some of his songs.

After another, popular on-the-air stint at KDIA, Sly recruited siblings Freddie and Rosie, cousin Graham, white high school buddy Jerry Martini and his cousin Greg Errico, and former high school horn player Cynthia Robinson to form the Family Stone. After paying dues in the suburbs and showcasing a knack for making a record sound like its appealing live shows with "Dance to the Music", the group finally struck a chord with the Flower Children on "Everyday People". All the while the group's outlandish live performances featured choreographed onstage movements and fantastic hairdos and costumes which appealed to a rock audience despite the grab bag of musical sources.

Sly's successful melt-down of formerly segregated genres and audiences with the above tunes and such positive power cuts as "Stand", "Everybody Is A Star" and "I Want to Take You Higher" helped pave the way for the funk, glam and disco of future decades. For the time being, the body-bending, sing-along impact of his hits got him booked at the Woodstock and Monterey festivals and at Bill Graham's Fillmores East and West.
