Letters: God will heal racial wounds
Wake-up my fellow African-Americans: There is a war being waged on American soil that is more insidious than anything we have experienced on foreign soil. It is time that we demolish the white good-ol’-boy system and tear down the strongholds of the enemy, exposing them for the clandestine cowards they really are. Let us respond in the spirit of unity and justice and not hate and revenge. Those are the weapons of the enemy. Our weapons are superior intellect and spiritual maturity honed by centuries of abuses, torture, hardships and sufferings at the hand of our oppressors. And our greatest weapon of all is our love for God.
Our weapons are the prayers prayed by the brokenhearted and those who are crushed in spirit. They are the righteous acts of those who champion the cause of justice and equality. They are the heart-wrenching sounds of a mother weeping over her son who was murdered by the police and children bitterly weeping for their father who was assassinated by racist law enforcement officers. They are the promises of God to those who love him and who keep his word.
