Letter: "President Obama's decision is destroying our nation and world." Is it about race?
June 18, 2010, "WHO IS THE RACIST?
The Valdosta Daily Times editor published a letter to the editor on June 16, by “Grady Blankenship” with a heading; “WHO IS THE RACIST?”
Although, I never used the word racist nor called the Commander-In-Chief of our sons and daughter’s serving at Moody Air Force Base, Iraq or Afghanistan dumb, stupid, a clown, or any other derogatory names generated by American Patriots and Christians---that merits no response from me here. Moreover "NO PERSON" or "NEWS PAPER EDITOR" of average intelligence in truth can associate me with the words referenced in the Valdosta Daily Times headlines of this article.
[More to follow on the heading: "Its NOT about race!
Moreover the writer said that; “I am the only person with a “race” problem and if I could see past President Obama being Black I could see the destruction Obama is doing to our nation and world. First it must be understood that the word ‘race” which was created by whites, itself implies the prejudice that the White race is superior to all other races.”
The People’s Institute of New Orleans Louisiana views “racism” as an equation in which the formula reads, race prejudice + power = racism. The word “race” is too often confused with the word “culture.” However the two terms, though, are as different as politics is from nature.
So we must never forget that “racism” is used to indicate a negative relationship between one race and the remainder of humanity. My letter did not violate the laws of the founder of the Christian faith by speaking ill of anyone. But that a picture be placed in the Valdosta Northern Station Post Office to show respect to all who served our beloved nation including Blacks that respected the other 43 White Male Presidents even before they were considered human beings, received the right to vote or had a president that looked like them. God bless both the righteous and the not so righteous.
I suggest the writer read the book “Undoing Racism” A Philosophy of International Social Change second edition Ronald Chisom and Michael Washington Volume one. ISBN 09653305-1-1.

Grady Blankenship is a well known racist-sounding, anti-freedom sounding, woman hater- sounding, Hispanic hater-sounding writer to the Valdosta Times... NOTE- I am not accusing him of anything, I am saying he sounds (reads) like a hater.
ReplyDeleteTake a look at something called "Not In My Lifetime" Blankenship wrote in the August 8, 2010 Valdosta Times. It is a 1,000+ word letter in a newspaper that allows, according to the Letters Policy on the same page, 250 words per letter. Guess who agrees with the sound of his hate?
IMHO this man is spectacularly unpatriotic! And apparently he has the tacit approval of the community. This, again IMHO, is appalling, offensive, and stunningly devoid of humanity.
