I was blogging on GretaWire Fox News this evening and this comment from OKNOW grabbed my attention. I want to share my response with all of my readers. Click here to read what other bloggers wrote in response to Greta's question regarding the Catholic Priest, Father Pfleger's racist sermon this past Sunday.
**********************************
OKNOW said "Of course, that woman is saying things like that woman in the magenta colored suit at 1:35 on Fox, because the part of the speech by Pfleger that has not been on tv goes like this (link above): “Get the sucker who’s been raping you and make them pay. America has been raping people of color and America has to pay for the rape.”"
***********************************
OKNOW if you could just stop and think and feel this rationally... this church and its pastors is subjectively keeping its congregation in a VICTIM mentality and poverity mentality. The Trinity Church of Jesus Christ in Chicago has replaced the very captures they abhor and kept their congregation in oppression!
Many races and not only the African Americans, have suffered throughout American history. The Native Americans, the Japanese, the Irish, the Chinese, the Mexicans, the list goes on and on. We ALL must move on in order to heal.
Imagine a woman being raped and all of her friends, family and church keep reminding her about that awful moment in her life which in turn will cause her to keep re-living that awful moment. Instead of helping her heal and helping her re-build her self-esteem and give her the strength and love that she needs to move on.... these people are keeping the WOUND wide open thus NEVER allowing her to heal and grow as a human being. She will REMAIN STUCK in that moment for as long as she allows these people in her life to perpetuate this violation of her personal growth. So in essence, they too are violating her!
The Oppressed have become the Oppressor!
The BEST way to get back at whomever has hurt you is to move on and ENJOY a successful and happy life EVEN after they have violated you. Thus, they become the LOSER and NOT YOU!
