Anyone thinking that no African American would be a part of the Republican Party needs only to look at who is on the payroll. Any African American willing to speak out against his or her people can quickly turn their moral compromise into cash. The Rev. Jesse Lee Peterson is one such sell out. Recently in a WorldNetDaily column he earns his keep by blaming his community for America’s original sin: racism.
He begins with scripture and a few examples to prove his point:
The Lord shall send upon thee cursing, vexation, and rebuke, in all thou settest thine hand unto for to do, until thou be destroyed, and until thou perish quickly; because of the wickedness of thy doings, whereby thou hast forsaken me. …
– Deuteronomy 28:20
Derion Albert, 16, of Chicago was recently savagely beaten to death by a group of black thugs in Chicago, providing a national spotlight to a rapidly deteriorating urban jungle.
In Detroit, 65,000 hopeless individuals lined up outside of Cobo Hall in an attempt to get their share of $15.2 million in federal stimulus money. A number wound up being assaulted and even trampled. The unemployment rate in Detroit is a shameful 30 percent.
These are just two recent examples of the utter moral and physical breakdown plaguing America's inner cities. Ominously, they appear to be merely a shadow of things to come.
The Bible speaks of blessings and curses, for following or refusing to follow God's laws. During a recent Sunday service, I asked my congregation if they could see the manifestation of curses around them. Many answered that they could not. Yet one only need look at America's inner cities to see plain evidence that curses are everywhere.
His funders direct him to blame the community’s leaders using the twisted logic that those opposing oppression are the oppressors:
Black politicians (oppressors) have been running major cities like Detroit, Atlanta, Gary, Ind., and Newark for years with disastrous results, but black Americans have become so corrupt that they keep re-electing them! The people of Washington, D.C., re-elected Marion Barry after he was caught using cocaine; and Ray Nagin was re-elected as mayor of New Orleans after his incompetence greatly worsened the human suffering caused by Hurricane Katrina.
This moral vacuum allowed corrupt black preachers and politicians to swoop in and exploit the community. With the man out of the picture, the women and children were unable to stop the onset of the hell we see today.
He does assign some blame to white Americans who he believes should have told African Americans to wake up:
White Americans are not to blame for the current sorry state of black America – at least not in the way that whites are typically accused (slavery, discrimination, etc.). But whites do deserve blame in this way: Whites have empowered wicked black leaders by allowing themselves to be silenced by false accusations of racism. White guilt and the fear of speaking up concerning issues of race and morality is costing this nation greatly.
Note the last presidential election, when white Americans voted in as president a far-left black with the hopes of better race relations and change – many of them have now had a change of heart.
It is the responsibility of men and women of God to tell the truth. White Americans must tell the truth to angry black Americans to help them wake up to reality.
