Unity to be real must stand the severest strain without breaking.
--Mahatma Gandhi
Indeed, this horrible atrocity has occurred in our beloved community. Let us not succumb to the tension that this occurrence has caused and break the ties of unity, of friendship, of love, and of a sound-judgment. I was mortified when I sat down to watch Fox 2 this morning and listen while Shawn Lindsey read a racist blog on air. I had my 15-month daughter in my arms and my heart dropped. Is this the community where I am going to be raising my child. Who would stereo-type a race of people because of the insensitive remarks of a few black people. The comment said that maybe black people should be viewed as amoral animals. If that be the case an “amoral animal” changed the face of history by rallying for civil rights and speaking out about non-violence. To the individual that made that racist blog…I will pray for you because it is obvious that you have no FAITH or education. I say this as I turn the other cheek and offer you the other to cheek to slap if you will
Kindest Regards,
