It is with deep sadness that I watch many wrap themselves in either the American flag or Christian Political Correctness in their attempts to deny Moslem Americans a basic right that we all cherish. I must admit that I am a bit ashamed at my Christian brothers and sisters who would act so callously to defame, ridicule, and reject another’s religious freedoms. As an American Christian –I hold such freedom more than mere words, but hard fought, blood bought, and time honored rig
I think in order to discuss Wole Soyinka’s speech, (whether I am really qualified andintellectual enough to do this is another question, but I will trynevertheless) as above, it is necessary to understand what Cultural Relativismimplies. The first use of the term, “Cultural Relativism” was around 1924 whenAlan Locke described Robert Lowe’s “extreme cultural relativism”, and sincethen there have been numerous debates between cultural relativism and universalhuman rights.

I am amazed that the controversy surrounding the proposed Muslim mosque and community center in New York City at ground zero is still going strong. America has turned into a country where if you don’t agree with someone, you are painted as a bad person. This is exactly what is going on in New York City.
Those who oppose the project have lost the legal battle, but now they are attempting to turn it into a political battle. I find those in opposition full of hypocrisy,

Even though not all black Americans refer to themselves as the pejorative n-word, an alarming proportion of the Black community uses and/or supports use of the term. For instance, ministers invoke the word from their pulpits, and the NAACP, with the wink of the eye, looks the other way when prominent blacks publicly embrace the word. Many black college professors support their students' use of the word. Minister Louis Farrakhan has glowingly utilized the word in some of his

Paul Scott:
A broken, elderly black man limped into his doctor's office last Tuesday afternoon. His neck bore the scars of numerous lynching attempts and his back the whelps of years of severe beatings. Reflected in his eyes was the pain of seeing his mother and sister raped and being powerless to do anything about it. As he described in vivid detail his many thoughts of committing suicide, the physician just sat emotionless in her chair. Finally, she scribbled on her prescription pad, "take two

Rangel has maintained his innocence and has been demanding a trial.

Dr.Nathan Hare once said North American Africans have been going to Egyptor Kemit for years digging but haven't found a bone of their ancestors.Such activity is a form of escapism or as Dr. Hare calls it,"otherworldism," essentially an escape from the trauma and grief of lifein America, a refusal to dig up and collect the dry bones in the hoodsof America where they languish in poverty, ignorance and disease.

Stan Moore,
Since 2007 I have been unrelentingly engaged in the dissemination of information asserting that as a means of maintaining its white dominance and control, the US government has been using perception management techniques against its Black population. It is
The US government’s intelligence divisions have developed advances in the studies of behavioral psychology that have given them much more control over its population. It initially used these advancements to develop psychological warfare programs used to manipulate foreign populations, but it was eventually decided that this same method of psychological warfare could be used domestically as a tool to manipulate public opinion.
