The Only Thing Left For Barack Obama

Bring It On. Dissent Is Central To Any Democracy.

I Think Being Born In America And Growing Up Exclusively Within The American Boundaries Of Race And Race Oppression Is A Very Different Experience For Those Of Us Who Grew Up Under The Boundaries Of Race And Race Experience In The Caribbean Or For Those Who Grew Up In Africa.

I Am A Man Who Perceives Life In A Certain Way, A Man Who Rejects Things That Defecate On Humankind, Who Rejects Anything That Will Not Give People Room For Dissent.

When I Was Born, I Was Colored. I Soon Became A Negro. Not Long After That I Was Black. Most Recently I Was African-american. It Seems We're On A Roll Here. But I Am Still First And Foremost In Search Of Freedom.

I Don't Know What America Has Really Learned. We Are Too Quick To Do What's Expedient On Behalf Of Our Culture Of Greed And Hedonism. We're Quite Prepared To Go To Conditions Of Tyranny In Order To Sustain That Culture, And We Do It In The Name Of Democracy, When Nothing Could Be More Undemocratic. We Do It In The Name Of Saving The Values Of Our Society, When The Way We Behave Corrupts Those Values. We Do It In The Name Of God In Whom We Believe, When In Fact We Have Corrupted Our Own Vision Of The Christian Journey.
