I didn't have time to listen to 22 minutes of youtube. This where I see the problem. You all say you support the troops, but not the Government, YES the Democrats too, they had control of both House and Senate for over 2 years now. This is the kind of talk that people will in turn, turn on our Troops. I look at these blogs and people from Detroit are in a time warp. Detroiters can't get past the past.
There's differences from the 60's and 2000's. One thing is that it's an all volunteer military, meaning if you don't want to join-DON'T. Can't get any easier than that. If a Soldier was already serving after 9/11 and re-enlisted than they knew what they were getting into.
Bottom line is that people can't move on. Look at Detroit, even their own counsel members realized that they are stuck in the past. For any of you who have left the State of Michigan and seen other cities, you know what I'm talking about. You don't see burned down houses from the freeway and rotted out buildings, DAMN Detroit is an eyesore, if you don't like it, tough, it's true.
I want to know who the NEXT Civil Rights Leader is going to be? Because Sharpton and Jackson, do keep the hate alive. Don't believe me, look at the States Obama won and the population and race and age that voted for him. Young to middle age Whites. I mentioned this before, the older you are (White or Black) the more racist you are, that is a FACT.

I did listen to the entire 22:49 of MLK. If your trying to say the is the 60's rev wright, then i have to disagree. He did speak out against the nation and government, but no where did he ask god to damn america,nor did he go on to attack and spread racial hate.

the other difference i find with the times and places and people is that in Vietnam those we fought did not attack our nation no just once but for over 20 years they attacked our nation and people.These same people we fight today want to cut your head off, they want to kill your kids, force your wife into submission,and they vow to distroy this nation.

Yes Vietnam did not have the ways nor the means to directly attack us,however the enemy we fight daily is looking for ways to attack us here. I will say that if that is their cause, which we know it is as they keep telling us it is, then this war we now fight is a just war to protect our freedoms. No different than protecting them in the 1940's.

When in the name of a religion they kill thousands around the world, attak people for speaking out and threaten to dominate the world the fight is a JUST fight.

If your so blinded by your hate of one man that you cannot see this then you are a fool who will only beg for mercy when the sword is upon your neck like nick berg and yet like nick berg you will not receive mercy,but a horrific death that by your own inability to see the truth you and the others like you have allowed grow will be your own demise.

I wonder what MLK would say about dufar, sudan and somlia if he were here today. Where in the name of their God they place Africans into slavery, rape and murder the women and young girls, lock and burn churches filled with Black people.

Tell me SeeDub what would MLK have to say about that? Better yet why not tell us what SeeDub says about that.

Slavery Persists In Mauritania Despite Laws
By Monisha Bansal

March 06, 2008

(CNSNews.com) - Four months after taking office, the newly elected Mauritanian government criminalized slavery in August 2007. Human rights advocates, however, are concerned at the lack of progress on prosecution.

Slavery has been illegal in Mauritania since 1981, but the law has not been enforced. The military dictatorship that ruled the country for more than 20 years denied that slavery existed in Mauritania. The country is listed on the Tier Two Watch List for the U.S. State Department for its inaction in eradicating slavery.

In August, the democratically elected President Sidi Mohamed Ould Cheikh Abdellahi introduced legislation that required mandatory time in prison for slavery.

According to Romana Cacchioli, Africa program officer at Anti-Slavery International, "Slavery is deeply embedded in Mauritanian society and exists across the country, both in rural and urban areas." She noted that about 40 percent of the country's population is slaves.

"Virtually all cases of slavery documented in Mauritania concern individuals whose ancestors were enslaved many generations ago," she said during a briefing sponsored by the Woodrow Wilson International Center for Scholars and George Soros' Open Society Institute, in Washington, D.C., on Tuesday.

"Under Mauritania's caste-based society, slaves are at the bottom rung of the social hierarchy," said Cacchioli. "Slaves have no rights and no choices in life."

Boubacar Messaoud, president of SOS Slaves, M

Boubacar Messaoud, president of SOS Slaves, Mauritania's primary anti-slavery organization, called it an "inherited state."

"Slaves are subjugated. They are dominated by their masters. They know nothing else but their masters. In fact, they know nothing but this system," he said.

Ibrahima Dia, Mauritanian ambassador to the United States, however, said: "A large number of slaves in Mauritania are free. They are free, but they still enjoy their status of being slaves, especially in the urban areas."

Messaoud countered, "They are free to move about, but they are intrinsically linked to the master's family."

"Slaves are told that under Islam, their paradise is bound to their master, so if they do what the master tells them, they will go to heaven," explained Cacchioli.

"If, however, they disobey or run away, slaves are told they will be forsaken by God and live outside of Islam. In an Islamic country, this is a powerful means of control. The slaves are victims of obscurantism, and their outlook is fatalistic, with many living in the belief that it is Allah's wish for them to be slaves," she added.

"In reality, however, Islam dictates that a Muslim cannot enslave a fellow Muslim," she said.

Messaoud said this has led to a violation of civil, political, economic, and labor rights, as well as high illiteracy due to limited access to education and training and high infant mortality.

He added that they are marginalized and discriminated against even if they are free, and the slave owner can appropriate their belongings at any time.

Dia said many former sl

I'll make this valid point-Had MLK not been assasinated, today's society would have been raised with alot less hatred and alot more knowledge of their culture & what it really takes to be a success in America. MLK was ahead of his time and certain factions didn't want his message to be spread properly, that all people should be judged not by the color of their skin but by their content of character. Just imagine had MLK lived, would there have been a need for one sided groups and racist activists? Highly unlikely.

It's not the vitriolic words and the violent actions of the evil people that threaten us as a nation. It's the appalling silence and inaction of the good people.

Just because your ignorant to the treatment of American black people in the past, and obviously the present, doesn’t make Racism less real to people who have to deal with it. Do you honestly believe that Black and white people have the same opportunities at the American Dream. And it not just be a little bit harder for a minority to get ahead?

How is Dr. Wright spreading racial hate? Be cause he said that America is run by rich white people? Does the truth hurt? White America hates to have it’s dirty laundry aired. How was Slavery, and Jim crow “fixed.” When has America ever Talk about the atrocities of the treatment of black people in America? It’s Obvious that race issues are as bad as the were in the 60’s. what has really been done to change things?

Sounds like America, from the late 1850-1960’s foolish, foolish man.
HYPOCRIT!!!!! That’s the whole point! We are going around trying to “FIX” every oil rich country in the world, when our own home is falling apart.
MLK probably would say the same things that Jesse, Al, and Dr. Wright would say about it, it‘s wrong and someone needs to do something about it, like the people over there.

Look at this truth Seedub, look at the faces and look at the color of their skin and yet you turn a blind eye.

THE TRUTH!! You mean your twisted version of the truth. Are you trying to say America is in Iraq fighting to stop the Genocide in Darfur, Sudan, and Somalia, are you fukcing kidding me! We have children not having enough to eat, right hear in America! But you want the Average Black American to feel sorry for people in Iraq, Darfur, Sudan, and Somalia when there are catching hell here in America Ourselves? Do you even think about the chit you spew out here on the blogs? If it’s so bad over their why don’t we send more Help? OH that’s right we are Bogged down in a war that didn’t needed to be waged.

For some reason I believe that If MLK where alive today He, Al, Jesse, and Dr. Wright, would have more in common than what you think. And this proves my point When Dr. King Spoke the truth about the war. Here comes the attacks of how KING is such a bad man, bye couldn’t even stand to listen to it. LMMFAO!!!
King didn’t become this great man to whites until he was dead. It’s seems that a lot of white folks love black people as long as they don’t speak out for civil rights or equality, but you know what fukc that! I will keep beating it into your thick skulls that America has to Address the issue of racial equality, before we can move forward as a country.

How can you claim whites didn't care for MLK until he was dead? You sound like some type of authority on the subject of how whites supposedly think, Seedub. America HAS addressed the issues of racial equality in many ways, along with groups that support people of color more than veer before in our history. The country wants to move forward but it is people with your mindset that hold back their own culture with dillusional thinking that Jim Crow laws still exist and people of color are still slaves to today's society. If there is so much racial inequality TODAY'S America, why are there so many prominenet African-American Governors, Lawyers, Congressmen, Senators, Actors/Actresses, and the list goes on. It seems the better times get for some African-Americans, the more the same broken record is remixed. Welcome to the 21st Century Seedub-Don't rely or blame any other culture for your inequities-Get off your duffs, educate yourselves, and work hard just like Americans have been doing for centuries. Ironic that claim there is no equality are the first ones to promote the hatred and racial division-i.e. Wright. Sharpton, Sheffield, You. Don';t use the past and twist it, use the past to learn and grow, The scar of slavery is now a festering open wound that is never given the chance to heal.

I think almost all people will find that the opportunities are there for them, but only if they posess the basic qualities of American life. Respect for others, manners, and an awareness of our legal system and laws and the understanding of how important it is to live within them.

Instead it looks to me that many of our minorities are instructed by their parents that they were delt a bad hand and the establishment is out to get them and no matter what they do they will be held down. In so many words, you don't need to obide by the law you will be jailed anyway. And don't bother getting an education, you won't be hired even with an education.

You will always be judged by the color of your skin therefore let you character go. No one will look at that anyway.

This is of course not how all minorities think but the percentage is high enough to make a big impact on how they are percieved by the rest of America.

amazing see i really thought you were smarter than you appear here. My post was to show what we are fighting, it was to show what the islmoterrorist are doing the world over and to people of your color and you make excuses.

I never before thought you a fool, but not only are you a fool you are willing to be a blind fool.

BTW, people like you that don't really see the big picture in the war in Iraq seem to attempt to divert others attention away with political spew. The war in Iraq IS indeed based on oil because if that power were to fall into the hands of terrorists and Angti-American factions, the balance of power AND our status as a world superpower would both be in serious jeopardy. At the very least, I can understand a person slamming the President & others for the war, but people should ALWAYS support our fighting men & women, for whatever reasons they are there. Today's "Patriotism" is completely different than in the World War days when all Americans backed their country & their troops not only in spirit, but by actually contributing to the war effort. People made warm clothing, children collected bottles & scrap, and flags were flown from virtually every household showing support for America. It's a shame that so many take for granted the lives lost and the sacrifices America has made just to insure our Freedom and keep our country strong. The biggest problem today is that so many want to act different than most Americans have for centuries and make our country more diverse than ever before, instead of working together for our country's common good. One can bet that if our country is ever attacked, they won't be racial profiling their victims-They will be killing Americans of all races & creeds.

The scar of slavery is now a festering open wound that is never given the chance to heal.

It seems as-if you just want to ignore the wound of slavery, and it's effects on America.
We need to take care of the wound, put a little Neosporin, and bandage it. If you ignore the wound it MAY heal well on it’s own, but it could get infected, and kill you. If you make the wound, your top priority. IT WILL HEAL, and probably won’t leave a scar. It’s crystal clear that we still have race issues in America. Not talking about it won’t fix it. Why do you think black people get upset still to this day about someone hanging nooses from trees? Is it because everything is O.K. with race relations in America. The Family’s of the people who were lynched in the 60’s didn’t get any justice, what was made right by them?
How can America fix the wound of slavery, and Jim crow?
I don’t know but an apology would be a good start. Maybe acknowledge that Slavery and Jim crow laws did, and still does have an effect on black Americans.
How can a problem be solved if, the problem still exist?

There once was a bird who didn't fly south for the winter. One day when it got really cold the bird fell to the ground, and was well on his way to freezing to death. Then along came a cow, that crapped right on the bird warming him, therefore sparing his life. The bird got so happy he started to chirp. A cat over heard the chirping from the pile of dung, uncovered the bird, and promptly ate him. The moral of the story is that somebody who puts you in chit isn’t always your enemy, and a person who get's you out of chit isn't necessarily your friend.
