Invisible Children
Just saw the documentary yesterday, and it depressed the hell out of me. It's amazing how thoroughly racist the country still is. I'm just apalled that we haven't done something. Joseph Kony is kidnapping children, desensitizing them with mindless violence, and then using them to go out and kidnap more children. All this to overthrow the government. Children sleep anywhere, under verandas, in basements of hospitals, packed together like sardines, because they're afraid they'll be abducted if they sleep at their homes. And the US just sits here, because we have no financial interest in Uganda. That, and because they're black.
Sometimes, I'm ashamed to be human. |
Re: Invisible Children
WHAT?!
You're suggesting that the entire United States is racist just because we won't devote countless resources to a country so screwed up that it would take the combined efforts of the entire world to possibly do some good that would likely be undone within hours? This is CT. Try to say smart things here. --Guido http://andy.mikee385.com |
Re: Invisible Children
Does it really matter? We are not the world police. It is not our job to undo all "evil" in the world because we are the United States.
Racism is biasness based on ethnicity, it's not just something that you call out because skin color pops up in an issue. How are we in anyway acting discriminatory towards anyone in this situation? We aren't doing anything at all. That is not what racism is. Racism is taking negative action towards or negatively undercutting a person, or people, because of their ethnicity. Right and wrong are concepts that exist only in your mind. It's all about how you're conditioned to think based on cultural and social influences. Nature is a cruel mother and what happens simply happens. |
