Civil & Human Rights vs State Suppression

Recently in the area commonly known as the south, it seems as
though there has been an upheaval of remorse and
indignation of past mistakes. However, if Justice would
be truly served, we'd all realize, that as a nation we
are in the same or worse condtition as we were in 1946.

I talked with an elderly blackman two days ago. And he
told me how he was mistreated in Jefferson Parish, Louisiana
(New Orleans, along with others as they were attempting to
register to vote. Why is it that in 2007 the Voting Rights
Act is to be considered again, as its legally binding tenets
will expire.

In 2005, you mean to tell me that the only way black folk
can vote legally is because of the Voting Rights Act. Where
are we, and why is, this?

Civil Rights & Human Rights vs State Persecution

A lot has happened in a very short period of time.
Here in this deep south, on a daily basis the rights
of us all are being violated. You would want to think
that in 2005, things would have by now settled down.

But, as the saying goes, what you see is what you get.
There is not a need to itemize the occurences, which
everyone is aware of. Society itself is about to
"regergitate" what it has consumed. There will be a
volatile backlash in the U. S., and subsequently
abroad as well. You see everyone expects America
the Beautiful to be just that. But the truth is our
expectations are grossly disappointed daily.

You just can't put 80 year old men in prison, for
a 40 year old crime and not expect, repercussions.

The Greatest Societal Need {GSN} End of Ages Persecution!

Some may wonder, why the constant subject matter. I've learned
over many years to please, "stay on point." The greatest societal
need is for everyone to treat each other right. But that ain't what's
happening. If everyone would just treat the next person right it
would be a much better place.
In September 2001, Yasser Arafat was in Durban, South Africa
for the World Conference on Racism. Rev. Jesse L. Jackson, Sr.
was there also. I remember one year Jesse went over there
in to a "troubled land" and got those American Hostages. This
time a black United States congressional delegation was also in
Durban. The United States Department of State only sent a
diplomatic delegation. No high-level American officials
attended the World Conference on Racism.
Ariel Sharon and President George W. Bush, Jr., are yet
dealing with the quagmire that is the Palestinian question in the
"promiseland". But, if everyone would just treat everyone right.

Every thing would turn out okay!

The Greatest Need-Part Two-"In the Land of Poverty"

If we ever get to the point of realizing the effects of impoverishment in all its facets we'll have a much better understanding of where things are headed. Take Sri Lanka and the other Indonesian Islands hit hard the "Day After Christmas Last Year". [note: the poor have a knack of giving up one thing for another] The people; of that heretofore majesticly sublime retreat for
the well to do, or should I say the "fare the well"; are still, drudging out a daily existence replete with tears never afore shed. Neglected then. No warning device in place. Yet now, global sustainable development fulled speed ahead. After the War. Thailand Revisited. An enormous deployment of energy from God Knows Where.

Hitting us by suprise. The land of outsourcing. Doing it cheaper and better. Deprived and neglected. Here and there. Punished and pimped. Still here, I can't leave the fact that while lawmakers are making laws that lawyering will indelibly leave their mark on. The purveyors of Democracy are making sure, A New Justice Shall Be Revisited. Tightening the ropes in the Homeland. Loosening the ties in the Promiseland. These that want the security of a nearly 6000 year relationship as they wait for Justice's Finality, juxtaposed against a 200 year history as it is related to a Third Day arrival of a Long Awaited Friend.

The Greatest Need

The greatest needs are often the common place things.

Too often we as Americans want to alleviate the worlds
woes and leave the other undone.
The Other? Our own. Here at home. You know, the homeland.
Yes, this is serious business being discussed here. Talking
about a nuclear option in the dear old Senate of the Congress
of the U. S. of A.

Everyone is depending on everyone else to come up with the
solution. We steadily climb ourselves into a stiffer and tighter
situation. And then we wait for some one else to get us out
of the mess we are in. We are taking about Justice
in its finality. Complete unmitigated justice. Found and not lost.
We continue in our continual denial of reality and refuse to accept the
consequences of our choices.

Of all the decisions to be made, both parties leadership leaving
the final option to those who are now concerned if leadership is
angered. Judges! Those who are charged with dispensing justice.
The lawmakers, whose laws the judges will interpret by a higher
standard; are afraid to compromise the opportunity to
stabilize justice in one favor or the other. We're headed for real
chaos when the structures of power are deadlocked.

Just to Let Us Know!

Down here in the deep southland, justice has been fleeting over the years. The only true program for pure justice, has yet to be embraced. We only now deal with what we have. Somewhere in the deep, dark future of our existence; the justice we so desperately need, shall appear. Until then? We have, what we have.
