A colleague of mine, fellow author Donna Hill has echoed the sentiments of an entire race of people who was appalled and dismayed that a major newspaper would stoop so low to further enshrine racism at the core. It gives me great pleasure to reprint her letter to the NY Post, and for good reason. I applaud her action as she beat ME to the punch! This unforgettable act goes to show you that blatant racism is still part of the Amerikkkan train of thought in keeping people of color from ascending to equal parity. President Barak Obama, notwithstanding, clearly will be a target that they will want to discredit.
But you know what? Our time is NOW! God has already ordained us to finally have opportunities to balance the scales. My hope is for Black America to wake up and move in unison to a different beat! Now back to my sister, Donna Hill. You will want to read what she had to say about such a despicable act. To wit:
"Your obscene, offensive, incendiary cartoon in the NY Post is below the lowest standards that the NY Post already hold themselves to. Not only should Black America be appalled, but the world should be appalled at this blatant, racist cartoon. I never made it a practice to buy our bigoted newspaper that continues to promote divisiveness and narrow-mindedness that does no more than incite the bigots of American. Now, I will not only buy it, but will encourage any and everyone I know to do the same through all of the outlets available to me, which are many!
Rupert Murdock and his ilk are the cancer that continues to eat away at this country form the inside out. A disease that would prefer to see itself replicated...hurting and damaging everything in its wake rather than allowing societ to heal from the ravages of your diseased self!"
