I ENVY THE REAL SISTERHOOD THESE WOMEN HAVE

because the white women--Christians, sure as hell don't have it,

not any fault of their own, NO, the fault of the ANDRO-CENTRIC WHITE RACIST MALE MISOGYNIST PATRIARCHY -DOMINION SUPER APOSTLE GARBAGE...THAT HAS POISONED BOTH THE WORLD

AND ENSLAVED THOUSANDS OF WOMEN, HALF OF THE BODY OF CHRIST, ENSLAVED TO

ONE WHITE MAN. [THE god HUSBAND, THAT IS]

SAD.

really, really sad,

meanwhile, GOD IS MOVING MOUNTAINS IN THE CHRISTIAN AFRICAN AMERICAN CHURCHES--AND HE'S MOVING THROUGH WOMEN!!!

TALK ABOUT SOME POWER,

BLOW THE TRUMPET IS RIGHT WOMEN...

ever heard of the Ethiopia Movement? It is my FIRM BELIEVE,

that the GOSPEL, THE SALVATION OF MANY, AND THE GATHERING OF THE SCATTERED SHEEP

WILL NOT COME ABOUT THROUGH THE FALSE 'WHITE' CHURCH OR

THROUGH THE MEGA CHURCHES...

BUT THROUGH THE PRAYERS AND LIVES OF WOMEN...WOMEN OF COLOR,

WHO STRONG, FIERCE, AND FAITHFUL...

KNOW WHAT OPPRESSION IS, KNOW WHAT THE HYPOCRISY IS,

IF ANY WHITE CHRISTIAN WOMAN IS SMART,

SHE'LL SIT, AT THEIR FEET,

AND LEARN.

that is Exactly, what I intend to do....

note: God lead me to this site, after reading Patricia Raybon's book, "My First White Friend"...

since the majority of white Christians, that I have met during my life have all but a few, been extremely hurtful, and well, flat out rejecting when realizing one of my daughters is Native Indian and very dark skinned [I have lived with racism all her life, not towards me, towards her, but it hurts just as much] but even worse,

the just 'shock' when I tell anyone about my mother's abuse to my brother and me, esp the sexual, its like, this oh my gosh it just blows that whole white madonna image right out of the water,

it shakes things up, well,

I can't live life 'pretending' it never happened or that our lives weren't in a huge way destroyed because of it, or my kid's lives, having been negatively effected because of...

then to top it off, my son is half Jewish, so I get to deal with the antisemitism as does he, and to be frank,

there are NO WORDS, TO DESCRIBE, WHAT A MOTHER FEELS TO HEAR HER EIGHT YEAR OLD BOY, ASK HER,

"MOM, why do they want to throw me into an oven?"

IT CHANGES EVERYTHING,

AND I DO MEAN EVERYTHING....

I simply dont' relate well to the majority of white people, maybe because as a child, I was treated like the dirty Jew by a very sick mother, and my first and only two best friends in the world,

I was five years old, were two African American girls, in Maryland. They lived next door...needless to say, that was in the era of hate riots, spawned by whites,

I was taught a 'lesson', at five years old, by a group of white boys, teens, I don't remember anything, about the attack

but I do remember, my hateful mother, telling those girls, when they came to see if I could play, that no, I could never see them again...

and I remember, sitting on that stairway, in Silver Spring Maryland, crying my eyes out, my hateful mother, tearing away from me the ONLY LOVE, I had,

and I remember, looking at them, begging my mother, and I will never forget their faces,

and one of the girls said, "Yes maam, we understand" and they turned, the door slammed,

and I

died.

The few friends I had, growing up, minus two white girls, were African American or Latina...mostly Latina because I grew up in the poor side of town which was a few white families and pretty much Latino, and so, I know the culture...

also I'm half Italian, and since also Catholic [then], our cultures were very much the same, different on some things but very much the same on so many others and I just felt more comfortable,

still do. I have had white friends, just not that many...and even now, late in my adult years, I find, that I offend many white folks,

for speaking of things, things that are true, but things, they get enraged about, like, privilege and our nation's policies, etc....

within the church that is....and I do notice, the wide gap, the wide segregation within the Christian community,

it is so there....and its not just on the white side, the tension, but I will say,

its the root, of the white refusal, to address, the root problem, of the construct of whiteness and the privilege, injustice, that goes all the way back to Europe,

in all fairness however, and based on historical and current still, fact, it wasn't just Europeans guilty of the crimes,

people need to also look into the study of the Arab slave market--oh yea, and who sold slaves, to the Americans and Europeans...because, that slavery,

is Still going on today and is still justified, by another type of 'race supremacy' and religious imperialism...I dont' have any qualms in saying it either,

Sudan, is just one huge example.

Anyway...Patricia's book, I highly recommend all to read, and why God lead me to read it, it was the ONE BOOK,

THAT HELPED ME, TO HEAL FROM A LOT OF IDENTITY HATE...FROM MY MOTHER'S ABUSE,

because they know, what it is, to grow up, learning self-hate, being told all the time, vocally and in the society, how evil they are, etc., are sub human, so forth...and it was in her book, that God started working in me,

on just how deep the hurt goes and about forgiveness...

though, I am not all the way there yet.

Peace,

Jane
