It's 2016 right?
My family reunion was this past weekend, I was not able
to attend so I ask my cousin about the highlights of the weekend. As he told me
about the festivities, he went on to say the children were having fun in the
hotel pool and one of children came up to an adult family member explaining
that he overheard an elderly white man say "there are too many niggers in
the pool."
It took me back to a movie I watched dated in the 1960's,
a famous black singer went swimming in a hotel pool and all the white people
got out of the pool and refuse to get back in. The next morning she went down
to the pool area for a morning swim, they had drained the pool and had hotel
maintenance cleaning the pool.
That was in the 60's, this incident happened in the
summer of 2016!
How do you harbor that type of ignorance and hatred in
your spirit generation after generation?
It just amazes me....
