There has been an "alarming rise" in the number of racially motivated attacks in Ukraine, according to a new Amnesty International study.The group says more than 60 people were targeted in racial attacks last year. Four people have died this year alone.The government, it says, fails to recognise the gravity of the problem, frequently registering the attacks only as acts of "hooliganism".No comment

I've taken my time since last Tuesday's Obama press conference in which he disowned his former pastor, Reverend Jeremiah Wright, to stand back and gather my thoughts about the entire episode because the issues involved are more complex than they've been presented in the media (and because I've had a tough week health-wise - which makes it that much harder to think).The conclusion I've reached is that no one is blameless in this affair: not Obama, not Wright, and not the media. Further, none of those involved has completely accepted responsibility for their part in what happened. And that guarantees that the situation is not over.Let me start off by saying that I agree with much of what Glen Ford wrote at Black Agenda Report and some of what Bill Moyers had to say after Obama's latest proc

In Slovakia there is a lot of gypsies, but completely no negroes.When a Polish woman marries a negro, she looses many friends, nobody want to be connected with her. A girl who had a negro boyfriend can't find any Polish boy. Nobody here wants a girl who was with negro.In Slavonic countries racism is probably the strongest in Europe.Blacks are not common thing in Poland. It's still quite exotic there.

Galatians 3:38What does God say about racism? Like in all matters of life, when we need the Truth, the real answers, we have to go to our final authority in all matters, the Bible. One of the greatest weapons of satan is division. The enemy has figured out every way imaginable to divide men. Since virtually the beginning of the human experience, man has fallen into satan's trap of division based on the color of a person's skin or their ethnic origin. While racism has always been an issue in this country, the fact is it is an issue in every country. This divisive mindset is not unique to the United States. Sadly, in some f

Here for text.
It's easy to judge Obama's speeches, but it's hard to assess their impact. On the one hand, they're all about dressing up socialist wolves in moderate, practical clothing and the elevation of selfishness (free _____) to magnanimity. But, nobody would use disguises if they never worked.
The speech ambiguously condemns Wright while apologizing for him and making anybody who brings it up feel "divisive," the worst thing you can be in an Obama world-except when he himself is talking about corporations or "special interests."
It talks about his background which I find neither heroic nor interesting (I don't denigrate it, either- I just don't care more about his accomplishments than his circumstances.) and offers some middling America-loving talk, inaccurate history (No char

Barack Obama recently tried to distance himself from his pastor because of his pastor's views about America and white people.Obama has been a member of his church for 20 odd years, was married by the man, had his kids baptized by the man and just now finds out that the man is crazy? Seems a bit pat to me no? Obama has to believe in what the man does if he stays there; it's not like you'll keep going to the same hate-monger if you aren't a hate-monger yourself.I've read quite a few good posts at various blogs about this and at almost all of them, some moonbat will be in the comments basically giving Obama a pass because he 'denounced' the preacher man.

The week after the so-called “truce” between Hillary Clinton and Barack Obama was full of more implicitly racist language by both Hillary and Bill Clinton. It is shocking that even after the Obama camp and media personalities called the Clintons on their implicit racist rhetoric that they actually stepped up their racist attacks while campaigning in South Carolina – a state with a large black voting population. The tactics backfired in South Carolina, where more than half of the voters in Saturday’s Democratic primary were black, and three-quarters of those black voters supported Obama. The result: the largest landslide in any nominating contest this year for Obama. But the results might obfuscate the reality of what appears to be the Clintons’ strategy – to make

A new national poll of over 1,100 African-Americans, Hispanics, and Asians shows that almost half of the Hispanics and Asians said they are "generally afraid of Blacks because they [Black people] are responsible for most of the crime" Forty-four percent of Hispanics and 47% of Asians agreed with that statement!That's not really shocking. We know that Blacks have historically been played as the villains and criminals of American society. This includes historic stereotyping through a variety of media formats, as well as through word-of-mouth stereotyping and racism that is passed on through many American families—including recent immigrant families. It is commonplace for Blacks to be portrayed as criminals. We've even seen Black criminals used in presidential campaigns (Willie Horton anyone?).With this poll we see proof (through admission) that historic racism against Blacks has crossed over to other minority groups. What's troubling is that we're talking about groups of pe

THE Queensland Government will review all criminal sentences in Cape York communities from the past two years after nine teenagers who gang-raped a girl escaped jail time.

Racism at the GMC was discussed here. The BMA's antics were described here. Evidence of NHS racism kept secret [Hospital Doctor]2007 Dec 5, Kathy OxtobyAn official report condemning institutional racism in the NHS has remained unpublished for more than five years.Race Equality in Medicine, produced for England's Chief Medical Officer in May 2002, listed discrimination and a lack of self-confidence or role models as the career barriers faced by black and minority ethnic (BME) doctors.The report, leaked to Hospital Doctor magazine, said that BME doctors had identified an 'old boys' network' of 'personal patronage' as an obstacle to career advancement, while 'club culture' created a 'tribal atmosphere where white, middle-class male doctors predominate'. The report's findings 'illustrated the extent of racial discrimination in the NHS in its varied and subtle forms' and confirmed 'there is still much work to be done to tackle institutional racism and prejudice'.It also feat
Something tells me that philosophers and religious leaders have thought of this idea thousands of years ago, but it struck me again today while driving in my car. In the past, I held the belief that if everyone learned to communicate on a higher level then wars and violence could be eradicated. After all, if we have a deep understanding of each other’s needs and wants we would be in a much better position to compromise and work together for a greater good.
Today I see that communication is not the answer, but merely the number one tool to accomplish this admirable goal. As with everything, the simplest answer is usually the best answer. Today, I have put my finger on the fundamental (the core idea) of stopping racism, prejudice, and violence.
Part of the way I choose to live my life, and what makes it so exciting for me, is that I often do experiments by altering my paradigm (the lens through which I see life). Such experiments are the key to living life by design. While driving
