A new revelation of anti-American sentiment laid to the charge of "the Black church" by mainstream media has shocked many newscasters and politicians as well as many average Americans alike, throwing their whole universe out of orbit. But let it be known, this sentiment comes not only from the Black church, but from all over the country and world. Surprise!

However, doing what they do best - applying racism to the topic - the elite white media will ignore all the anti-American sentiment streaming from white America and many other ethnic groups around the world, and point directly to Black America as being white-folk-hating reverse racist, which amplify their typical practices of racism they claim does not exist. They have even gone as far as blame Jesse Jackson for the racism in the country. How can white America blame a black man for America's racism? Easy, they are hypocrites.

It is understandable that self-evaluation can be an extremely hard thing because no one wants to see themselves as some kind of possible psychotic, and many psychologists will charge you a hundred bucks for that information. But denial, duplicity, and disillusionment run rampant among white America, especially the elitist in the media because they describe themselves every time they ascribe wickedness to leaders of foreign countries, terrorist, or domestic criminals.

For example, when describing a terrorist organization they will say, "Rebel groups want to control government not allowing Democracy to spread and the people to have freedom like here in America." However, if this sentence is analyzed thoroughly enough, it can easily be applied to America itself, such as, "American leaders want to control society through government by not allowing the people to make decisions through voting and to restrict freedoms by acts of congress such as "the Patriot Act."

When describing the restraint of civil liberties in other countries, American pundits will claim, "Third world countries limit women's rights by confining them to home while the men go out and vote, work, and get educated." Again, if this concept were applied to American society it could be read as, "American business limit the working poor's wages to a certain amount and oppress their ability to recourse by gaining protection from liability through government laws that protect businesses over the consumer and worker."

More Examples:

1. America represses Blacks and women by limiting their earning ability and paying white males more, according to yearly statistics.
2. People are starving in Africa and other parts of the world but people are starving in America also.
3. Americans have the best of everything yet have the highest individual debt to income they will never be able to payoff in a lifetime.
4. Americans have plenty of food yet are among the most wasteful people in the world and the unhealthiest.
5. Americans have the right to vote but the government has the last say.
6. America has the most powerful military in the world but has destroyed millions of people's lives, city infrastructures and daily societies throughout the world just to maintain that power.
7. There is plenty of opportunity in America, but the best opportunities can only be afforded by the wealthy.
8. There is corruption in many world governments, like there is corruption here in American government.
9. Dictators torture their people, yet America incarcerates more of its people (even its children) than any other country in the world.
10. Terrorist groups are heartless killers out to kill Americans in the name of their God, yet America has killed over a million (estimate 1,191,000) Iraqis rebel and civilians in 5 years in the name of Democracy, but that makes it OK.

The point is, each time a media reporter or pundit makes a negative statement about someone or nation in the world, listen closely and surely those same words can be applied to any situation headed by an American leader or entity.

To expect Blacks to not harbor some anti-America sentiment is almost ludicrous. And to think they are wrong for having any is even more foolish. There may be some who appear untouched, but guaranteed, once they reach a certain age, they will have been, or have at least perfected a serious pretention.

No doubt, America have added much to the advancement of the civilized world, but whites cannot take all the credit, yet they have and have all but discredited anyone other culture or race of people who helped develop this society. The irony is, when things begin to turn on a sour note, they find a way to blame those they once discounted. This is hypocrisy.

The day will come when the harvest will come forth and the steward will reap of the fruit of the fields; like all other countries, America will have to answer for its deeds, whether good or bad, and the leaders cannot escape this inevitable day, nor can the people. There is nothing wrong with praising the good of America or believing in and supporting its mission, but when critics come forth from within its gates, the leaders have to listen or else they will be guilty of oppressing the very people they claim to have given freedom.
