Today was a great day for America, as President Barack Obama took office. I had the immense displeasure of working during the inauguration speech (not that I don't love my job, I just couldn't enjoy the event while serving 3 hyper-needy tables).
As servers walked out of the area where the TV was plugged in, a customer noticed their server leaving after watching the inauguration speech. The woman, who looked quite homely, asked the server "Are you back there watching that n*gger?"
After hearing this, It took a lot for me not to say something to this poster child for white trash, but I began to think about her hatred and what that has done to our world. I stopped and thought about her immense ignorance and imagined what Earth would be like without that.
It was hatred that killed Jesus Christ.
It was hatred that enslaved blacks.
It is hatred that creates racism and discrimination against all minorities.
It is hatred that rapes innocent people.
It is hatred that fuels most of what is wrong with Earth.
So I wondered--does this woman have any concept of the ideals that she may be passing down to her grandchild she eats lunch with? What kind of a person could say such a thing?
I disagree with the "Hatred enslaved the blacks" Im pretty sure it was the triangle trade that enslaved black people.
ReplyDeleteI would say it was a mixture between hatred and greed. Love doesn't sell innocent between into slavery in exchange for sugarcane.
