The last six words in the Pledge of Allegiance, With liberty and justice for all, continue to ring hollow for many Americans and will continue to do so until it becomes clear to all Americans that it is as difficult for the African American community to see justice in the continued murders of unarmed black men at the hands of men and women in blue as it was for white America to see justice in the acquittal of O. J. Simpson in the murder of Nicole Brown Simpson twenty-plus years ago.
Silent Terrorism, A Look at American Racism and Hypocrisy was written in hopes of opening and stimulating dialogue about race in America. I have been blessed to travel to many countries outside the United States of America, giving me a very good understanding and appreciation of the benefits of being born a citizen of the greatest country in the world. As great as this nation is as a whole, as honorable as its ideals are, the founding fathers left huge holes in its foundation related to race and racism which continues to divide our nation today. The tactics, techniques, and practices (TTPs) used by racist men in our society today differ from those of their forefathers. Their TTP’s continue to evolve, change and are embedded in every facet of our lives, our justice system, and our government, which from its inception has been a state sponsor of terrorism (racism) within its borders. One can argue that many of the atrocities committed by the founding fathers and other immigrants from Great Britain were necessary to establish and build this nation, that excuse cannot be used to explain the continued racism, voter disenfranchisement, repelling of the Voting Rights Act, many of today’s laws, and a grand jury system that continues to allow for the murders of unarmed black Americans. Supreme Court Justice Antonin Scalia, said most of the black scientists in this country do not come from the most advanced schools and black students do better in at slower tracked schools. Scalia continued to express his racist views from the bench when he said students of color are being pushed into schools that are too advanced for them due to race-conscious affirmative action policies.
