United We Stand, Divided We Fall
Half a century ago a very long line of human beings of
many colors marched on the United States Capital hand in hand, non-violent
to end racism and today a half century later we are divide because of pro-choice,
religion, our invasion into another country and the notion that non-violence
is half a century old.
Non-violence is not very useful in this political climate
of sending planes over countries and dropping bombs or driving mobile bombs
into crowded markets and checkpoints.
The Martin Luther King speech is old news, a historical
speech that belongs in a shrine like the Virgin Mary. You know a place
where you can be forgiven for invading a nation or blowing up human beings
with an automobile.
Today we have a leader that smirks at human rights and
places a lawyer legal fence between free speech and his enclave of believers.
Our home is divided.
