Rev. Wright is old enough to recall where the first Mayor of color was elected and who nominated him, financed his campaign and made Mayor Thatcher a really good mayor. The city was Gary, Indiana, the names of the Jewish people involved in his
campaign are today irrelevant. The NAACP in this city was lead by a wonderful man, Mr. Andrew Means, a builder of afforable housing during the WW11 years and after for people of color coming North to work in the steel mills. His financing started
with a family bank owned by a Jewish family and was one of the biggest contributor to the NAACP. It was back in 60′s here in L A, at a NAACP Conv. that the Means Family saw that this long time very close friend & member of the family was honored.
After all these years does any just thinking person of any pigmentation want what was, I truly do not and doubt that the majority does either.
What we must face is that those enemies of our way of life look at us and say,
” we need not attack “, they are destroying themselves with the promotion of Hatred and political unrest. If the Parties continue at the pace they are moving we will not have to worry about any of what we need to solve on the street’s across our Nation. Let us all wakeup and start working to repair the damage of yesterday and those who say no, walk around them and continue to mend.
