My family goes back to the 1600’s. We have our soldiers fighting wars; my uncle went behind enemy lines incognito among the Nazis and Communists…and worked to decipher Russian and Chinese code during the Cold War. My family always upheld human dignity. War was nothing ever to brag about. We always upheld the poor and suffering. My neighbors were communist and the husband was one of those who instigated the Pennsylvania coal miner riots in the early 70’s. Yet my mother cared for his infant daughter, and my father would spend time talking to him because he was still a human being.
Blacks moved into our neighborhood and my father said we don’t move out because of people’s skin color. My son decided to go this inner city school. Since he was 14, he travelled 28 miles a day throughout high school and most of the kids were black. The Catholic school got them on track and only two were not going to college because they fooled around. Hope they eventually can go. My son loved the kids and they loved him.
And yet I meet young people who think the world’s problems are based on the American white businessman, the white Anglo Saxon male. That is a lie.
The problem in the world is sin. We all have it.
And where I come from, you bring up the Indians…well here they enslaved other Indians. Indians also did their share of inhumane acts of torture and abuse.
So you see, we are all equal.
When someone is suffering or has bad memories…you don’t shove some thing on a vulnerable peoples that was traumatized by most horrific event.
You don’t have to be an American to realize that. And most people in the world agree you don’t further abuse people’s memory and push your way on them.
I work in health care and to push yourself, your values, your ideas on a vulnerable person is considered unethical.
