I know many people of all colours, races and religions. Most of them would deny being racist, and be somewhat offended if they were described as racist....
However, If you pressed them about Gypsies, or Catholics, or Turkish Cypriots or white South Africans ..... or whatever.... you would find some group that they would be totally biased against, simply for belonging to some group or other.
Is it possible for _anyone_ to be totally non-racist?

Dear Friends, Send This Appeal For Truth To The World!!!
By Fax, Phone, Letters, Internet, And Mass Rally!
Contact us: http://peopleoflove.kickme.to/ or at peopleoflove@yahoo.com
THE PEOPLE OF LOVE FOUNDATION
IS ASKING YOU TO COME AND BE APART OF OUR SPIRITUAL WARFARE AGAINST OPPRESSION
WILL YOU JOIN US?

1. Unity
We call first, for the unity among the People of Love Foundation, meaning people and organizations who are a part of us. We call for unity among all people of love desent, worldwide. We call for unity among all those who desire to live in a world of Love and not Hate.

“The Power of Divine Love in unity of One” is the synthesis of men, women, youth and elders working in unity for our total liberation. The liberation of all poor and oppressed people of the World, starting first here @ home, and then spreading it to the rest of the world, we would like all that are of love divine to joint us in our warfare.

This Warfare is not with weapons of men, but with the spiritual powers that comes with Divine Love. With the characteristics of divine love in each and every human being who desire to live in total peace, without sickness, crying, hurting, est., est., est.
2. Spiritual Values
We call for Atonement, Reconciliation and Responsibility, of each member of the “POLF“. We organize and build this foundation in the name of our God (Divine Love) and on sound ethical, moral principles and values.
Our Movement affirms the rich legacy and diversity of our spiritual traditions and calls for unity and understanding among our religious faiths and spiritual organzations, as well as our leaders finding and looking for ways to become one with all of Love descent people of this world.

3. Education
We demand an end to substandard education in our communities of poor people here in America and also the rest of the world.
The People Of Love advocates, and will develop, a new, independent educational paradigm for our people the (POLF). We must have a knowledge of self, our history, and the best education in civilized society.
We will build a skills bank, the talent of which will be used in the development of our people (POLF), those of divine love.

4. Economic Development
We will establish a People of Love Economic Development Fund, with the support of millions, to aid in building an economic infrastructure. We will also offer housing ownership opportunities to check the adverse tide of gentrification.
The People Of Love will produce and distribute its own products and supports from “By and through the People of Love” from campaigns.

5. Political Power
The People Of Love is the political voice of the poor and disenfranchised.
We are resolved to take an independent political path in order to achieve political power. The People Of Love will be an organized political force of consequence in America and all over the world.

6. Reparations
We demand full and complete Reparations for the descendants of the oppress people in America that desire and want to live in a kingdom of Love, instead of hate.
We demand that America take the appropriate steps to help in the repair of the damage done from 600 years of slavery, 600 years of bad leadership, leaders of self-love and not divine love (For all those who come with the characterists of divine love they the self-loved ones kill and destroy)...
We demand to have Leaders of Divine Love to rule this nation according to the will of Love Descent People.
We will know them by their fruits, if their fruits do not think, speak and act in Love of all the people as a whole, those who desire to live a righteous life in this world, if they do not speak about others first, instead of themselves, then we do not want or desire them to be in office...
If they have a history of working for all the people that are oppress, and homeless, and without food, working for their daily needs, if these leaders have a history of always thinking and speaking of others and putting themselves last, if they believe that as long as one suffer in America, all suffer, if they belive that as long as anyone is suffering in this world, then we that are of love, divine love that is suffer with them...because we know that they are of us, as we are of them.

7. Prison Industrial Complex
We demand freedom for all political prisoners held in U.S. prisons and detention facilities, both foreign and domestic. We demand an end to police brutality, mob attacks, racial profiling, the herding of our young men and women into prisons and the biological and chemical warfare perpetrated against the people of poor descend.

8. Health
We demand an end to the lack of adequate health care in our community and we demand free health care for the descendants of the oppressed in this nation. The People of Love will present a Preventive Health Care Plan to our people that will begin with a campaign to educate our people on healthy dietary, eating and exercise habits.


9. Artistic/ Cultural Development
We demand a greater accountability and responsibility from our artists, entertainers, industry personnel and executives, for them to commit to the redevelopment and uplifting of our people.
We demand an end to the exploitation of our talent by outside forces. We will make strides in obtaining greater control over the means of production and distribution of our immense artistic talent and creative genius.
We advocate for cultural development, and for the knowledge of our original culture of love, being show in all we do, to be used as a model for future advancement.

10. Peace
We call for the establishment of peace in the world. We demand an end to wars of foreign aggression waged by the United States Government against other sovereign nations and peoples of Love Descended.
We demand an end to senseless violence, and advocate peace amongst street organizations (gangs) and youth. “They are going to label gangs as domestic terrorism in order to lock up and kill our children those of the oppress and disfranchised people of America. They have already passed laws that have taken away hideous corpus and most all of our civil rights away and will soon be shutting down borders and traveling under Marshall law…”
500 years of the misuse and abuse of governmental power is destroying the People of Love, their organizations and their Leaders are becoming lost in the ways of this World, which are the ways of self-love.
We plead with you as a brother or sister, you who desire to live in Love, Divine Love that is, you who would desire to live in a kingdom free from wrong, living among people who think of the whole (all), not themselves and their families only, but of all people that are in America, knowing that if we are doing good and our fellowmen and women are not, then we in reality are not... How can you live in riches while your children suffer or your brother or sister goes without that which they need? And we here in America are all to be of one another, we are all to be brothers and sisters of each other, we are to be ONE NATION UNDER DIVINE LOVE, FOR GOD IS LOVE, IS HE NOT?
How can we “COME TO UNITY” unless we live in the DIVINE LOVE of our heavenly Father‘s?
And we are all one of another, we are all brothers and sisters of each other, we are all of one blood, we are all to be of the blood of righteousness.
Well, in case you do not know, we are all one of another, even though we are different in color's, we are all one of each other, and we are to be one nation. But how can we be one nation, unless we live for the same things, walk by the same rule, have the same desires to live in true divine love?

“Thou shalt break them with a rod of iron (our iron is our divine love); thou shalt dash them (are the self-loved ones in this world) in pieces like a potter’s vessel.” (Ps 2:9 av)

Joh 15:5 I am the vine (the Love), ye are the branches (those who show His Divine Love to this world): He that abideth in Divine Love, and Divine Love in him, the same bringeth forth much fruit: for without Divine Love ye can do nothing.
If your finger hurts, does not your whole body feel it's suffering and pain?
If one of us who are of love hurt, then we that are of divine love, all, each and everyone who said they believe and live in divine love, should hurt also...

COME, BE APART OF OUR SPIRITUAL WARFARE AGAINST THE OPPRESSION OF THIS WORLD, NOT FOR YOURSELVES, BUT, FOR OTHER'S, OUR BROTHER'S AND SISTER'S, WHO ARE OUR HELPMATES, OUR CHILDREN WHO SHALL LIVE AFTER US, LET US THINK OF THEM, AS WE LIVE IN THIS WORLD...AND LET'S TURN IT INTO A KINGDOM OF DIVINE LOVE!

AMERICA TODAY, IS MANY NATIONS DIVIDED IN ONE NATION!

LET US BECOME A NATION WITH ONE AGENDA, THE AGENDA TO RELIEVE OPPRESSION HERE IN AMERICA AND THEN TO THE REST OF THE WORLD.
LET US START HERE AT HOME FIRST, FOR HOW CAN WE TEACH OTHERS IF WE CAN NOT RULE OUR OWN HOUSE (NATION)?
LET US BECOME ONE NATION UNDER DIVINE LOVE, WITH MANY DIFFERENT COLORS OF PEOPLE (BEINGS)...

LET US CHANGE THE NAME OF THE WHITE HOUSE, TO A NAME MORE SUITABLE FOR US AS A PEOPLE OF LOVE.
LET US CALL IT THE PEOPLE'S HOUSE OR THE HOUSE OF ONE NATION WITH MANY COLOR'S...
I DONT' CARE WHAT WE CALL IT, BUT LET IT RESENTS US AS ONE AND NOT AS DIVIDE...IT HAS NO RIGHT TO BE CALL IN THIS DAY OF TIME THE WHITE HOUSE.
AND UNTIL WE ACT ON CHANGING THE NAME, DO NOT THINK THAT ANY OTHER COLOR OF HUMAN BEINGS BESIDE THE SO CALLED WHITE (Caucasians people).

"The economic and cultural domination of people of Caucasian descent over people of color has infected the cultures of others all over the world. People of color of varying races and backgrounds must contend, in general, with fewer resources and more limited access to power over their environments than white people. They also must do battle with disrespectful and limiting stereotypes about them that are passed down from generation to generation among people of the dominant culture). Those who are truly in love with Divine Love has only two races people in this world, and they are the one of righteousness and the other of unrighteousness."

We are tried of this world ways and the way we live in this world, We are tried of the way this world lead our children to destruction (destruction of self and others). We our looking for other's who are tried also...

All we ask for is your awareness of that which is true, good and right.

Come now, you know what is right to do. Come, be apart of us and let us be apart of you, if that desire is in you for that is right and good, then we are here to help you we are to suffer with one another, to be there for one another, to know that no matter where we go or may-be, we have family....
We must think like family, and come together in UNITY. For the HOUSE (People) that is divided shall FALL! And America I must say; “Our house is divided, into many nations, instead of one nation under God (Divine Love).

Honestly I am not racist at all and I do have a lot of black friends. But I was wondering...why do you always bring up slavory? Honestly I think it was wrong...having slaves was just wrong and I agree with you but when I ask my friends they say I will never understand. I want to understand because I want to put some white friends of mine in place. Does it really affect you forever?? Please to report me I was really just trying to understand...

I was born and raised in Los Angeles, California. My family is Mexican and has been in CA since it was Alta California, Mexico. They were fortunate enough and were not thrown off their lands like most Mexican farmers and families were. So when my family hears the phrase "they are taking over" it's sickening to see how people really believe that they own the land that was stolen. If anything, Native Americans and Mexicans should be claiming that about you.

Can you, if you are a discriminator/racist, justify your views? Logically and rationally, relevant facts, and WITHOUT racist slurs? Since there are so many people who are discriminatory/racist, I figure there must be a very good reason. So tell it to me.

I have to admit I am a bit of a racist when it comes to black people. I don't like their hair texture, skin color or shape of their noses. However if I wanted someone to manage my investments for me I would for sure choose a black female manager.

The reason I would only choose a black female is because I think in order for her to get to that position of investment manager. She must have been at least three times more intelligent, more ambitions, hardworking, hardheaded, charming, competitive and results oriented. Affirmative action or not companies would still choose the best of the the best because their bottom line is to make MONEY.
If I'm being a racist I don't care as far as I'm concerned I'm just using common sense.
What do you guys think about my theory?

With all the crazy stuff going on like war, homeland surveliace, foreign survelliance, fear, global warming, and consumerism, how long do you think America will be America? The original concept of America is gone, with all the corruption and greed, but I believe that in at least 20 years there will be a revolution or if they get silenced a civil war. Part of me hopes for it because that would facilitate change, but the other is afraid of change. I want to know what you think and decide wether people are awake.

This issue has been on my mind lately and I wish it didn't exist but that's like wishing that Santa Claus or the Easter Bunny were REAL. I feel like a lot of different races do actually know how to get along and make a sincere effort to do this and also to learn about each others' cultures. But it's the ignorant, narrow minded people filled with intolerance and hatred that keep racism/discrimation going and going. Do you think we'll ever get to them ? Are there any previous "racists" out there who have had something in their lives change their views and feelings about other races ? Please share your experiences. Below are some of mine...
