Good topic sir @papa-pepper
And glad you are speaking up about it.

Also glad you pointed out that THERE IS ONLY ONE RACE. To have any heart felt idea of the worthiness or goodness of one color above another shows a deep ignorance to the reality of the world we live in.

It also shows an ignorance to the reality of sin in this world. The Christian Bible teaches that ALL are conceived and born with the cancerous effects of sin affecting their lives and souls. And this bears true in reality when you can trace history and find evil and dumb and destructive people of every nation and skin color. Racism is really rooted in a denial of sin. If one people group can be born naturally better than all others apparently sin didn't affect them(or not as strongly).

No, we are all a broken people that depend on each other for support and 'building up one another.'

Racism is real. But it is built on lies. And every person can fall victim to these lies. Those that think they are better or less bad than any others are, at least minutely, affected by racist ideology.

And what is more, this current rise in racism, I believe, is orchestrated by those that would keep the majority of the people subjegated. I had seen, over my 35+ years, racism as a reality and contagion on the decline until the last 5 years. Now it is back....and back more strongly than I ever could have imagined. It is so sad and depressing!!

I hope that neighborhoods and organizations and communities (like STEEMIT) can rise to the occasion in harmony and self-sacrifice to show that we are one people. We are one people that can love each other and help one another. I have seen it here already. And I hope that more can rise to the occasion. (And Christians, be an example to your neighbors!)

Peace Papa Pepper and all the Steemit community!!
Peace!
