If you really want the answer, then let’s do this.  No bull, no taking sides, no politics, just Americans. Three ugly eruptions over race are hanging in the air like a stink bomb. One involved a black street activist calling for the killing of white babies, another was the NAACP labeling Tea Party patriots as racists and the other is an unconscionable and a vile “satire” from a Tea Party Express spokesman who reportedly blogged a mock letter about Abraham Lincoln’s emancipation of black slaves.

First, regarding the black street activist calling for the killing of whites and their babies. Though the man clearly spoke to the hatred of some, the vast majority of black Americans were appalled, embarrassed and disassociated themselves from the sick and inflammatory rhetoric. The street activist appears to base his hatred solely on skin color. Clearly, that is the most insidious and base form of racism. Sick minds come in all races as this black man demonstrates that racism is not the purview of whites, Hispanics, Asians, Arabs, etc.

Regarding the NAACP labeling of a group of  patriotic Americans as racists. Doing so presents an obvious political ploy for votes for Obama mixed with a strain of racism within the NAACP that is founded on past and present wrongs. To dismiss racism that exists within the NAACP based on whites and the racism of other peoples of color against blacks, is kin to dismissing this country’s slavery past because Arab/Muslim nations chained and enslaved more Africans than America. The book, “Darwin’s Racists” (http://www.DarwinsRacists.com), reveals that blacks captured and held blacks as slaves and sold thousands into the slave trade. The ugly truth is, many blacks are carriers of the disease of racism that they so strongly and righteously condemn. Two wrongs do not make a right. As an example, please view the following video (provided by Andrew Breitbart and posted on the Internet) of a member of the Obama administration speaking to the NAACP:

Regarding the now former spokesperson for the Tea Party Express, Mark Williams, who reportedly blogged in a mock letter that slavery was a “great gig” and that slaves "did not cotton to emancipation” because it meant they would have to do “real work” - makes me recoil at the vileness of the misrepresentation of my fellow Americans and the plight of their ancestors. Williams has been tossed out and is no longer associated with the Tea Party Federation  Mr. Williams may call his mocking blog “satire,” but I call it racism. The Tea Party consists of patriotic Americans of all colors. Just as with the NAACP,  rotten eggs may slip through. Then, just as the Tea Party does, the NAACP should expunge the racists in their midst.

On radio, a young black woman was greatly distressed that Hispanics and illegals were taking over her neighborhood, a Hispanic was critical of a black president reshaping his American dream and a black man having witnessed extreme Muslim violence and oppression concluded that it isn’t the “white man” that is the devil. Multi-colored distrust and dislike is being heightened by those fearing differences from one another.

Where racism is least found in America today and where people from all backgrounds join together as one, is in houses of worship. Using the Christian faith as an example.  For true Christians – not Christians in name only – but true Christians who follow the example of their Savior Jesus Christ, racism is blasphemy against their Lord. True Christian churches see all people the same as being created by God and equal in His eyes. It is there you can witness a black ask a white to pray with her because she has just been diagnosed with cancer, an Hispanic being aided by hands of many colors helping him move his wheelchair-bound daughter, a black helping a white senior into a pew, the Christian Arab and Christian Jew enjoying fellowship together, or the bowed heads of people from every background praying to accept all others as they have been accepted by God. For the full story, read “Darwin’s Racists” (http://www.DarwinsRacists.com) a book I co-wrote that answers the question – who is the racist?
