To the Editor:

Don’t promote segregation for profit

Posted

I would not mind CRT (Critical Race Theory) or racial justice being addressed in school if the subjects also included food stamps, welfare checks, Medicaid, free school lunches and grants for segregated colleges.

One day I, a lady with a medium beige skin color, was working with a younger lady with a light brown skin color. The young lady told me she was going to have to quit her job because she was making too much money and if she did not quit work, she would lose her welfare checks. I had to continue working and felt as if I were the one being treated unjustly.

Since everyone living today is a descendant of Noah, we are one race ranging in skin colors from light beige to dark brown. No one is black, and only albinos are white. “Only Noah and those who were with him in the Ark remained alive,” according to the Bible (Genesis 7:23). Martin Luther King Jr.’s dream was for ALL Americans to be united. Martin Luther King Jr. would probably turn over in his grave if he knew someone was using his dream to divide Americans and put coins in their pockets. Everyone knows the more one stirs dung, the more it stinks, and the more one stirs hate, the more coins go into their pockets.

Maybe it’s time to cut the purse strings on entitlement programs and those promoting segregation for profit.
