I AM AMUSED AT WHITE FOLKS AND BLACK FOLKS WHO TALK ABOUT "HEALING AND RECONCILIATION," YET DO NOT WANT TO TALK ABOUT THE WHITE AMERICAN RACISM AS THE SOURCE OF THE HEALING AND THE RECONCILIATION "PROBLEM."
I refer them to this quote from Malcolm X--"If you stick a knife in my back 9 inches and pull it out 6 inches, that's not progress. Progress is healing the wound that the knife blade made. They haven't even pulled the knife out much less heal the wound. They won't even admit that the knife is there or how the knife got there." -Malcolm X. HOW CAN YOU WORK TO ELIMINATE RACISM WHEN YOU WILL NOT ADMIT RACISM IS THERE?
