White Fear

Exclusive Commentary by Rev. Jesse Lee Peterson President BOND

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.

I've read these articles by Jesse Peterson before, and the fact is this "white fear" applies more to some white liberals than it does to conservatives.
Liberals are the ones who believe this nonsense that blacks cannot be racists, only whites can be racists yada yada yada.

Conservatives in general believe in treating all men as equals, and don't suscribe to the racist patronizing attitude Jesse is addressing.
That is why Jesse is so popular among conservatives (and resented by the left).They agree with him on that this white fear nonsense is wrong. They reject it like he does.

By the way, I lived a great deal of my adult life with more blacks than whites, shared apts with several black friends,and more than once lived in almost completely black neighborhoods.

I didn't have one bit of a problem stating my opinion of Jesse Jackson, or speaking my mind when somebody black said something I considered racist against whites or jews or whoever.
I didn't worry about being politically correct, or patronizing and certainly wasn't inhibited by this so-called "white fear" which you are so obsessed with.
I just treated people like people and did fine.
