Respect for each other, not appreciation, is what will change the world. Appreciation cannot come before respect. Respect is the foundation that prevents history’s chains from being reforged. Without it, grievance becomes endless sparring; with it, progress is possible. You too take care.

That's all I was trying to get you to understand. There is no victory for me, because there's still work to be done. Take Care and Good Luck in all that you do.

You were done before you started Playboy. You just wanted to me to validate you and your father's effort in the Civil Rights Movement and that's it. You weren't committed to repair. So you won't be cutting me off nor shutting me up. You can leave just as you came.

I'm a Black Man born in the early 70's who's had to face, and fight racism every since I was 4 years old. I do appreciate the White People who stood against evil but didn't finish the job, because they refused to fight for racial equity to undo the damage that European Americans inflicted upon AA's

US CHATTEL SLAVERY was an institution that European Americans made for their own diabolically greedy purpose and now you want me to praise the 2% who fought it? What?! They were supposed 2 fight it, it's what WA made. You sound like a person who started a fire & expects praise 4 putting it out.

You perspectives sounds narcissistic. On one hand you acknowledge the horrors committed by racist White Americans and on the other hand you want AA's like me to be grateful for White people like you and your father for getting into a fight that your people started Against mine. Do you hear yourself?

Stop Right there. We had no true allies then as we don't have true allies now. Most European Americans got ghost when the Fire Bombing, assassinations, torturing, murders and false imprisonments came. So African Americans reserve the right to decide who is or who is not our ally.
