After 140,000 hits on Youtube, subject matter ranging from Hip-Hop to Politics, I can say that America is Racist. It amazes me how much hate is out there, and how much these fools hate change. Not just the change that President Obama has been talking about, but the change that America has no choice but to except. In the coming years, the “WASP,” (White, Anglo-Saxon, Protestant) community will be the community that is in the minority. “White America,” will no longer have the numbers they have had since America has been a unified country.

It seems that since they (white America) is losing their power, they are doing all they can to keep the ideals of Jim Crowiology alive. It seems that hate groups are trying to blame the mortgage crisis on minorities, and everything else they can come up with. I thought that America was a place where all men are equal. Yet, I realize that this is not true, and may never be true. Until we are rid of the KKK, and Fox News, lol, this country will never be United.

No, we can not be all united under one liberal banner or republican banner either, but what we must become is a people united under being Americans. This country does not belong to one person or group of people. It does not even belong to  capitalism or socialism. It belongs to those who believe in a dream, and are willing to work hard at achieving there goals. Yet, we cry like little babies when the leaders of the country do not do as we desire, we do all we can to destroy the other man because he or she does not see things the way we do. This is childish, this is stupidity, we must reach beyond the ideals red and blue, we must become leaders of tomorrow and not leaders of yesterday.

We have spent so long in the country killing one another and not apologzing for the sins of our fathers, that we can not move forward. It seems that President Obama has opened up an unhealed wound, and if we do not try make these wrongs right, our nation will not be able to move on.

    Racism is a human characteristic–a learned characteristic, handed down generation-to-generation We can’t change our lineage but we do choose what to accept from it. Racism and hatred is learned, friend-to-friend. Choose good friends. There are plenty of open-minded, loving individuals in this world we can choose as mentors.

    If I could change anything in this world forever and ever, it would be to get rid of racism and bigotry. However, I expect bigotry is a human charatersitic that always has existed and always will. We can only make small steps in the right direction, one individual at a time.
