Micah 6:8 – He has shown you, O mortal, what is good. And what does the Lord require of you? To act justly and to love mercy and to walk humbly with your God. (NASB)
Systemic: fundamental to a predominant social, economic, or political practice.
Race: The lineage of a family, or continued series of descendants from a parent who is called the stock. A race is the series of descendants indefinitely. Thus all mankind are called the race of Adam; the Israelites are of the race of Abraham and Jacob. Thus we speak of a race of kings, the race of Clovis or Charlemagne; a race of nobles, etc.
A generation; a family of descendants. A race of youthful and unhandled colts.
A particular breed; as a race of mules; a race of horses; a race of sheep. Of such a race no matter who is king.
The above definitions were obtained from the 1828 Webster’s Dictionary…the original American Dictionary of The English Language. Notice, the word “race” originally did not include connotations of ethnicity, color or nationality. It had to do with family lineages and classifications. If you look further back than Webster’s definition, the word “race” was used to classify individuals economically…not ethnically.
“Systemic Racism” does not exist…except for in the minds of many misled people. The notion that the United States of America is a racist nation, and that everyone and everything within it is racist is completely absurd and ludicrous. In matter of fact, many of the people making these claims are actually causing the division and separation across ethnic lines in this nation. (See attached link). So, systemic racism is the preconceived notion that the suppression of particular ethnic groups is fundamental to a predominant (white) social, economic or political practice. Nothing can be further from the truth.
Black on black crime is increasing. Black people are destroying their own communities and the black owned businesses within them. That is not brought on by systemic racism…this is a conscientious decision made by those who do such acts, and encouraged by those who wish to divide and conquer this nation. Any time that you have Congressional and/or Senatorial representatives threatening anyone who does not agree with their view; and your President and their staff are enforcing it…it is time for a major change.
Everyday people in this nation, who love it and care about it and everyone in it, are labeled as “racist” because they don’t believe that systemic racism exists. I most certainly will be called one because of my stand on this topic. But, I most certainly am not one; neither are many others who feel the same way. And it is unjust, unethical, unfair, disrespectful, misleading, diabolical, absurd, illogical, idiotic and demeaning to be labeled as such not only by individuals, but by Federal leaders of this nation. It is even more oppressive to be forced to declare that you and the nation that you live in are racist when you are not…just to satisfy their thirst and hunger for domination.
Truth is truth, and it hurts sometimes. But it requires to be carried at any cost. The Bible verse I listed at the top of this post says it all. This is what God requires of his people. The sooner that We The People take this country back to One Nation Under God, the sooner this nation can heal and progress.
TRUTH IS TRUTH
