Is the dream over?

"I have a dream that one day this nation will rise up and live out the true meaning of its creed: 'We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal.'... I have a dream that my four children will one day live in a nation where they will not be judged by the color of their skin but by the content of their character... And if America is to be a great nation this must become true." -- Martin Luther King, Jr.

Across the United States today schools are dismissed, government offices are closed and rallies are being held in "honor" of the Rev. Martin Luther King, Jr. The great civil rights icon who was murdered on a Memphis hotel balcony 40 years ago this April is being recognized by many, while others use the celebration of his birth as a cheap excuse for a 3 day weekend.

When discussing King, one cannot but help to refer to his "I have a Dream" speech given in front of the Lincoln Memorial in Washington DC in 1963. It was in this speech that Rev. King presented his vision for America, one built on the equality of all men based on who they were and not what they look like. And it was in this speech that he also stated "We cannot turn back"; and i think those who have stolen the banner of Rev. King's legacy have done just that...turned back.

Over the recent years there have been a large number of black Americans who have risen to positions of prominence based on their merit and their skills...while those like Je$$e Jack$son and Al $harpton have attacked them for their alleged dissension from the liberal ranks that help support their lifestyle which amounts to nothing more than their own for of welfare (living off the success of others). This type of rhetoric sadly is then passed down to those who wrongly view these men as being for them when they are actually very much against them.

Names like Clarence Thomas, Condoleeza Rice, Colin Powell, Michael Steele, Alan Keyes and Star Parker are just a handful of great Americans who are labeled as "Uncle Toms" or "sell-outs" because they refuse to cower to the hate mongers who feel the need to control the thoughts of their minions to say in power over them. And although they are called "puppets" of the "evils" of conservative ideology, in truth they are the ones living out the dream of Martin Luther King, Jr.

Until we move beyond the rhetoric and the lies of the race bating machine that is deep seeded in the democrat party, i believe that the dream will amount to being nothing more than a dream...something that never actually happens. Personally, i believe in the dream that Rev. King spoke of, and it is a dream that i am working at seeing become a reality in my own life, my family and my church. And i pray that God will bring this dream into a reality in our great country, despite the work of those who have hijacked the dream for personal gain.

The picture of a double standard

The truth finally came out and those 3 INNOCENT Duke Lacrosse players were finally given the official title of "innocent" by the Attorney General for North Carolina. After over a year of having their names and reputations drug through the mud, being rapists and over privileged white frat boys who are finally getting their due; they are now free to carry on with their lives...or what is left of them.

Je$$e Jack$son found every TV camera he could in NC and beyond to stand up for this poor little stripper who had a record of making up stories like this (also called lying) and even offered to give her a college scholarship. All the while he did everything he could to beat up these three young men, as well as the rest of their team, the school and pretty much the white race, declaring that this white man abusing a black woman is nothing short of the same type of tyranny we saw in the US in days of slavery. Now tell me, is there not a better race bater in our country today?

Now for the double standard...Imus is being destroyed for saying "nappie headed hoes" and the Rutgers women's basketball team are being coddled; and the young men who were called violent over privileged rapists are still being questioned and Jack$son is saying that she should still get a free ride and still questions the innocence of these young men. Why are the civil rights "heroes" not standing up for these young men who present situation and possible future has been destroyed? Where is Je$$e Jack$son and Al $hartpon at for this one?

Don't hold your breathe, because after all...they are part of the white privileged section of society that doesn't deserve a fair shake. And that is nothing short of a double standard!
