Brothers and Sisters, if it was not for people like you unafraid to be moved to ACTION not just mere thought or internal prayers, NO SOCIAL CHANGES would have ever happened to right the wrongs of injustice that have always been a part of our history, although it is not taught in schools.
The mere idea , for example, that black people were somehow freed from bondage through prayer is a slap in the face to all of those bloodied, whipped and killed who urgently HOPED AND PRAYED daily for RELIEF and a capitulation to their and their babies subjugation to the pernicious economic political and social policy.
Blood and Moral indignation followed up with courageous action IS THE ONLY THING that literally changed that cruel system and it still took many, many years.
Anyone who professes this fact of history to be false, practices the worst kind
of moral cowardice, cloaked in prayerful “magical thinking,” that precludes
them from performing any material acts proving their zealotry to past social leaders like
Jesus of Nazareth, Joan of Arc, Harriet Tubman, Mahatma Gandhi, Mother Jones, Nelson Mandela, Martin Luther King Jr., Malcolm X and John Brown.
Raising doubt as to their spirituality being nothing more than a mere canard.
Floating on the wings of fantasy.
Hard work, prayer, and positive thinking have their place.
Life is like a concrete border wall Standing alone Against the Winds of Time Paying not a hint of attention To the squall Nor the federal workers call For pay checks The only thing that matters Is thine Celebrity And political status The symbolism of the Superior Structure Practically shouts to all Bring not your poor Destitute Freedom searching souls Unto my shore Our hearts are as hard as steel And concrete joined Empathy toucheth me not at all
