RACISM?!

I lived in a small farm-town in Ohio until 2nd grade. I was bullied by one black kid and white country boys.

My parents moved me to Dallas Texas through the early 80’s. I lived in Dallas from 2nd grade until 5th grade.

For those years I was a minority in poor Mexican neighborhoods. I was attacked daily by Mexicans who didn’t want me in their neighborhood.

I was called “gringo” regularly. I was identified by my skin color.

I was bullied relentlessly by some of the other kids. I always found another outcast to hang with. I made a friend in the mix and survived.

My parents then moved me to the suburbs of Washington DC after my 5th grade year.

I then started being bullied by big black kids. Kids who had already failed a few times so they were giants in our classroom.

I was in the learning disabled classes. I was being abused at home as well. School was something to be survived. I could only do the classwork at school. Homework was impossible.

In the meantime I was watching a lot of western movies. My dad liked westerns. The native Americans were basically saying how the white man oppressed them in most of these movies.

I also saw movies at school that the teachers showed that had slavery and cruel white slave masters that would mercilessly abuse these black people.

I was attacked for being white time and time again because of the lies from those shows.

‘Roots’ was the series that fueled a lot of hatred towards me.

Apartheid was also going on in the 80’s and most of my teachers would dress in their native African attire as to show support for South Africa.

I felt bad for the native Americans and the oppressed black people. I hated for anyone to feel bad.

I was oppressed by the backlash from racism.

Well… the backlash usually means more racism. I was mercilessly attacked regularly for being a white male.

The “White man bad” ideology was intrenched and fierce. I was treated well by many wonderful black teachers but I was also targeted by teachers and staff because I was white.

I had a wonderful Black female teacher, Ms Francina Beech. She was fair and kind.

What I find prevalent in the culture today is an attempt to battle racism with racism.

The communist and socialist ideologies look to take advantage of the minorities bitterness and cause division.

The left is guilty of trying to use racism to end racism. DEI is an attempt to hire minorities and punish the white male persons.

I was regularly called a “gringo” in Texas and I was referred to as a “white mother f’er” in Washington DC suburbs.

I was dealing with violence from home and outside the home.

I never saw blacks as the problem or Mexicans because I was experiencing violence at home, in my neighborhood, and at school.

As I went higher in grades the racism was less and less. I believe it’s because my high school had a decent blend of all races.

I also fought my way onto the football team despite the racism in the beginning.

I grew up with the “White man bad” ideology in the movies, shows on television, at school, etc. This racist ideology had bullied me for many years.

I see the left and many well-meaning guilt-ridden whites supporting racism against white males.

I see what’s happening and I won’t tolerate it.

I have no apologies for being a white male. I am proud of my Irish heritage the same as those black teachers were proud of being from Africa. I celebrate being white and my heritage.

Every race has experienced slavery. I am not tolerating being bullied by those that want to hold, blacks being enslaved by white people, over my head.

I did nothing wrong.

If you do the research you will see that every race has been enslaved at one time or another.

In my experience the problem is revenge not racism. Revenge is shared by all of the races.

I am part Irish, Dutch, and Welsh. I celebrate my heritage.

Don’t let the leftist ideologies divide us so they can come to power.

Trump has his problems but he is NOT racist. I do not believe Trump is a Christian and I hope he chooses Jesus Christ as his Lord and Savior.

I voted Trump because the other party was pushing racism against white men. Some use racism to divide and conquer.

We won’t defeat racism with racism.

Christs love is our only hope. All races should turn to the solution that is Jesus Christ. He died for all of humanity so we could be reunited in love to our creator.

I have found a home in Jesus Christ.

I personally experienced white racism in the liberal public schools. That makes me a victim of racism.

The new face of racism is white men. I did nothing wrong. It’s a lie. I won’t tolerate it. No apologies.

I have great empathy for anyone who suffers injustice and you are safe with me.

1 Corinthians 11:1 “Follow my example as I follow the example of Christ.”
