Oh, boy, I just started reading that Moyers’ transcript.
Wright saying, “You can’t be what you ain’t seen.” Referring to his desire to help young people realize their dreams of being doctors or lawyers.
He doesn’t realize it’s not his job to do that. He – and Obama – can offer all the opportunity to blacks that they want: to have as much of the “world” as they (foolishly) dream of.
But what they fail to understand is those things are worthless if one’s heart isn’t in the right place.
And those kids “ain’t seen” that from that pulpit.
We don’t have far to look to see the foolishness of having a tremendous education with economic security rather than a loving, forgiving and grateful heart:
