We are all immigrants here in the United States, excepting indigenous Americans. If your ancestry doesn't date back before the late 1400's then you and your ancestors are immigrants. So when I see the privileged white folks who are backers of outlaw ice agents I begin a slow boil toward anger. They choose to think of themselves as advantaged who have impunity from reality. Their arrogance along with their prejudice is enough to enrage my inner peace. I contain my rage but it does manifest itself in other ways outside violence. I channel that rage into any and all determined opportunities to confront their mental deficiencies with argument and dismissal from my sphere.
Reality is that most all of us come from somewhere else to reside in America. We have no claim to being strictly American more than anyone else. Even those of us born on these shores are no more special than those who seek to come to America to live where their dreams and aspirations may come true. Of course we need some kind of immigration indoctrination but not wholesale removal of those who have historically worked and traveled our nation from before its inception. We may still have a system that recognizes the benefit of all that come here while also recognizing any harm that may also exist. Always remembering that the melting pot ideal is crucial to peace and prosperity.
What we have now with the current political administration is one where bias and prejudice outweigh equality. Where the fear of skin color shades their mindset. I will call the white pride group out for existing to eliminate those who are not white. Fear based upon race is childish and shows an immaturity risen from closed minds and hearts. We all are human and for me that is what America represents. The best human traits in any one of us. That is America, not this subset of corruptible minds and hearts. I feel lately that the era of this anti melting pot regime is breaking apart as the rest of us not in that subset are getting a horrified real up and close look at their agenda of fear based hatred.
This blog will be an advocate for compassion, curiosity and human survival. When these elements of human nature are being denied, wholly, severally or individually, less than positive human traits are the outcome. It is my wish and hope that my reasonings on a variety of subjects will provide the readers of this blog with personal and public insights. My only motive is to provide a forum for advancing enlightenment. Carl Clark.
