There
is absolutely nothing hated and feared by the Liberal establishment
as much as a Black conservative.
Remember
Clarence Thomas? The Left attacked him like a bunch of crazed
dogs during his 1991 confirmation hearings. Even if everything
their star witness, Anita Hill, had said were true, Thomas'
worst crime was telling her a dirty joke!!
The
reasons for this fear and loathing are pretty clear. A true
conservative believes in less government, more self-reliance,
and has a strong sense of morality. If these characteristics
were to be represented in enough Blacks--the number one "Victim"
group--a stake would be driven through the heart of essentially
every plank of current Liberalism.
Remove
victimhood, increase personal responsibility, and encourage
traditional morality--such as families staying intact--and it
would be "Game Over" for Liberals, the Democratic Party, much
of the news media, and most of the so-called Black leadership.
That's where B.O.N.D. comes in.
The
Brotherhood Organization of a New Destiny, founded by Rev. Jesse
Lee Peterson--a Black conservative--is a Los Angeles based group
that has as its primary goal: "Rebuilding the Family by Rebuilding
the Man."
B.O.N.D.
believes that the door to a new destiny is open to individuals
who live by the principles of morality, forgiveness and self-reliance,
and who strive to uphold family values.
As
soon as you log onto B.O.N.D.'s
website, you'll discover that Jesse Peterson is no shrinking
violet. Check out these remarks:
"I
have often heard Blacks say that they are the most forgiving
race of people, that they forgave slavery, etc. Let me be plain
- Blacks are not forgiving. They would not have spent the last
forty years complaining, whimpering, whining and begging if
they were forgiving. They would not be accusing whites of being
racists and trying to hold them back if they were forgiving."
"A
forgiving people have clarity of vision. A forgiving people
would see that their so-called Black leaders are their enemies,
not their friends. They would see that Bill Clinton is using
them by throwing them bones (welfare, affirmative action) for
his own personal gain. The President has carefully cultivated
Black favor as he knows they form the backbone of his support.
To show Blacks how much he 'cares', Clinton formed a 'Race Panel',
apologized to Africa for American slavery and welcomed leftist
Nelson Mandela to the U.S. as a hero, among other phony gestures.
Bill Clinton knows that Black support is the only thing standing
between his Presidency and the unemployment line, so he is now
cultivating this support with more diligence than ever. Black
leaders, of course, are only too happy to play along."
Peterson
has little use for Jesse Jackson. In fact, he is calling for
January 17, 2000 (Dr. Martin Luther King. Jr.'s birthday) to
be a "National Day of Repudiation of Jesse Jackson."
"Jesse
Jackson is nothing more than a racist demagogue," said Rev.
Peterson. "The Decatur, Illinois football riot incident is just
the latest example. He doesn't care at all about the thugs he
is protecting, the other students at MacArthur High School,
or the people of America -- black or white. We are calling on
all Americans of goodwill to stand against racist demagogues
of every color. If David Duke was saying and doing exactly what
Jesse Jackson is saying and doing, America would be up in arms.
Jesse Jackson is David Duke in black skin."
Here
are some of B.O.N.D.'s services to the community:
Youth
Meetings: Youngsters come together on a regular basis in a open
forum to frankly discuss the various challenges in their lives.
Their feelings, experiences and deepest fears are shared at
these meetings.
Surrogate
Brother's Work Ethic Program: Youngsters learn useful working
skills, such as construction trades, while working on home building
and remodeling projects under the supervision of professional
contractors.
Entrepreneur
Program: Weekly meetings are held for boys and girls which teach
them step-by-step, how to start and run a business. These workshops
feature different speakers, field trips to businesses, and one-on-one
interviews with business owners themselves.
Unafraid
to speak his mind, and unafraid to stand up to the Liberal elite,
and all its fellow travelers, Rev. Peterson is a man after my
own heart. More importantly, he's a man after God's own heart.
How
good it is to know that there are still a few real leaders out
there!!
