“Some people say racism in this country is a thing of the past. They say that ‘all men are created equal’ and that the signing of bills and the passing of laws 50 years ago has kept it that way.”
“Others say that racism is alive and well. They say that
blacks are still looked down upon by whites and that things will never change. They say the recent events in NYC (let alone the rest of the country) speak for themselves; those events being (but not limited to) a white officer killing a black man by choke hold during what appeared to be a non-threatening situation, and two officers being assassinated by another black man as revenge for the first incident.”“I try to
hide my eyes from stories such as these. I try to pretend that it’s simply a ‘cops vs the bad guys’ scenario and keep to myself. I try to remember what it was like growing up as a mixed-race kid, being accepted by everyone I knew because although I was a different skin color, I was still a pleasant human being. The only problem is that doesn’t work because I wasn’t raised in the United States of America...”“Things are different here.”
“They are obviously not how they were in years past, but they are still nowhere near as good as they could be. I still hear stories of black on white / white on black
crime, initiated simply because someone was black or white. I still feel uneasy feelings during certain instances in my life…instances caused simply by me being ‘not white’.”“I still find newly-carved
swastikas every now and then, such as this one that popped up overnight on the same bench I sit on every day waiting for my 6 train ride home.”
“Perhaps one day things will be different…REALLY different. Perhaps one day black and white, Jew and Gentile, male and female will all be considered equal…TRULY equal.”
“And perhaps I’ll still be alive to see it…”

There is no “perhaps,” one day things will be different; one day things “will” be different, and I believe that day will be soon. God has set aside a day in which all will see the changes that will take place, not only in the U. S., but in every nation under the sun. He [The Lord, Jesus] will show his approval and disapproval on that day, of things that has occurred, by separating the sheep from the goats, the righteous from the unrighteous, and the good from the evil. That is a promise from the Creator, and you can be assured it [that day] will come, as have been pronounced.
