Inciting the Masses (Part One) - by Moses

      So I'm sitting at a Tim Horton's and I sit with a couple of guys that I consider my friends.  One of the guys (an Italian in his 60's) makes this comment;  'Jews hate 'Black' people.'  So I respond to him 'That's offensive.  I'm a Jew and I have 'Black' friends'.  

  This constant racial divide is perpetuated daily by bigots, and causes for the mis-education of what people really think.  Personally I have no use for racial stereotyping, and no use for a typecast based on race, colour, or creed.  Believe what you want to believe,  hang out with whoever you want to hang out with, and try to be kind are my words of wisdom.  What I don't understand is how in 2020 we still see racial divide.  How insincere are the U.S in their dealings with the NAACP?  When are the bigots going to be silenced? and when will a reparation for 'Blacks' in America surface.  Anything less than 20% of the Annual U.S GDP is lip service.  The problem with bigoted statements made in public is that people may not say anything, but silently agree and then the rumor mill starts and people become persecuted.  As a Jew when someone tries to give a Jewish stereotype I remind them that there is one G-d and 7 Billion different ideas of what is right or wrong.  Should the stereotype stand that Jews hate 'Blacks', this would incite people into desecrating Synagogues.  Wasn't Reggie White's Church burned down based on his ethnicity?  This plight has been endured by Jews since we came to North America, and we've suffered enough desecration (of the synagogues) and persecution of our people on this matter.  For the record there really isn't a stereotype that could be used to define a Jew, a 'Black', a 'White', a Muslim, a 'Native' man, and the list goes on and on...
