Suppose we all were responsible for the actions of our friends, relatives and associates. Do you stop loving family members just because they say something you don’t approve of? Do we disassociate ourselves with people we care about just because they have a different opinion? People usually speak from experiences including hurt and disappointment. Rev. Wright understood his language and so it is with many others that have struggled throughout the years. Does this mean that we hate because of those experiences, no of course not. We have learned throughout the years to accept and love each other in spite of our differences. If you listen to the core of the message of Rev. Wright, sad to say, he was only speaking the truth. Yes, the truth sometimes hurt. Therefore, let us move on and not fall into traps of indifferences based upon what we feel is not acceptable language when we have not had the expereinces that define this language. Besides, aren’t we all entitled to our opinion. The injustice that many Americans have recieved including African Americans and Caucasians, have not always been fair, and can never be justified as right. Yet we move on!
