We have been solely focused on race for 50 years now that we have nothing else to offer. We have lost our culture and have become only skin deep. It is sad that Race is all we identity ourselves with. Race has become our only power.

“We have been solely focused on race for 50 years now that we have nothing else to offer.”

The greatest missed opportunities of American history and our worst moments all pertain to slavery.

1) The Dutch slave ship that started it all at Jamestown in the early 1600’s. If only the colonists had sent the ship and its cargo away.
2) The failure of the founding fathers to eliminate slavery in the original Constitution.
3) The Civil War.
4) The assassination of Abraham Lincoln. Lincoln was the only politician who might have brought the union together and facilitated the integration of former slaves into society. His assassination resulted in Reconstruction which created the bitterness of southern whites leading to Jim Crow laws and segregation.
5. The assassination of Martin Luther King. Had King lived the Civil Rights movement would have been led by a man who wanted a color blind society instead of affirmative action race hustlers such as Jackson and Sharpton.
6. The election of Barack Obama as the first black President. Obama could have been a historical figure working to bring the nation together in a vision of a color blind society. Instead he and his underlings have deliberately worked to exacerbate racial tensions and preferences.
