Internalization and Empathy

When a duffel bag full of racism is thrown in my path, I internalize it wherein in many case, my white counterparts empathize with my dilemma. My internalizations raises red flags, bothers my nervous system and somehow or ‘nother, messes with my DNA.

When whites empathize with my reactions to the duffel bag of racism thrown in my path, they put a time table on their empathizing. “Get over it!” they say. “Move on!” they urge. “Look to the future!” they intone. They say these things as they drag Oliver North who was accused of putting drugs on the streets of Washington, D.C. and giving him a television show. This they told us of Nancy Grace who destroyed Michael Jackson, one of our most precious icon as they continue her television show. This they are doing with Sarah Palin who espoused subliminal attempts to destroy the character of President-Elect Obama.

And now the empathizers are calling time on the reprehensible behavior of Hillary Clinton during the primaries. Again they are asking me to get over my internalizing incident after internalizing incident Hillary and her husband Bill threw in my emotional path. Not only would such a feat be difficult for me but it would also put me into a character most deceitful fostering a self-hatred agenda. I refuse to be so manipulated; always have and always will be for the foreseeable future.

There is no way in hell I can conjure up respect for a person who, seeking a political position, would sacrifices her own personal fortune anticipating the assignation of her opponent. In my opinion, that’s evil and there were many in various white communities empathizing with my feelings regarding her remarks but again, those same empathizers are presently, and so soon after the primaries, asking me to “get over it” and wish her highly suspect ambitions to become Secretary of State be the flavor of the day to which I reply KMA!

And speaking of Secretary of State, I like the originality of the enclosed diary. Sen. Biden having the duel role as Vice President and Secretary of State makes sense to me. Extending the originality, Madame Albright could then become Vice President or Sen. Biden could also remain Vice President and his Chief of Staff, Ron Klain, could conduct sing-a-longs in the Senate until Sen. Biden returns from a country to cast his tie breaking vote. The man said "Change!" (Smile)
Fighting for the dignity of my Ancestors,
God bless Bill Gates, WPFW, C-Span and the spirits of the unborn for the help,

P.S. I do not see either Hilary or Charlie Rangel getting the Black vote in N.Y. for their re-elections. This puts Hilary in an awkward position at this time. The whole world saw her shameful conduct on television and should also wonder why she is being considered fo Secretary of State.


A bold decision: Joe Biden for Secretary of State

Excerpt:
Think about it. Everyone on both sides of the aisle has respect for Joe Biden's abundant foreign policy experience and tremendous skills. He is widely admired and respected overseas. He is as clean as they come: there will be no funny business, no skeletons in closets. He is a straight shooter. He is earnest. He is an honest broker. he is trustworthy. Most importantly, he has the trust of his boss, Barack Obama. Who better to entrust the execution of vital foreign policy issues to than the second-in-command? That way, he would really be ready to step in at a moment's notice, should anything happen to the President
