I have a Hope

Back in the 1960's Martin Luther Kings gave a speech called I have a dream. And with this speech he stirred the whole country into taking a hard look at itself. And civil right and the crime of persecution  of one race of people over another just because we are different. We look different we act different we even think different. That is no reason to mistreat abuse or belittle another human being. Physically or economically  just because they are different. Now in the last fifty years this country has made great progress in the way we tolerate each other. But now we have another problem that is manifesting itself. Its an evil thing that is tearing the underbelly of this country apart. Its the same old disease as before but now it not your color or religion its your bank account. That is right money power wealth these are the dividing lines now. I was watching the actor Samuel Jackson in a interview one day and he said Its funny when I got rich and famous I was not a nigger anymore.I was Mister Jackson and everybody was like how can I help you sir. Not like before when he was  just another young black man get out of the way. So this man found an occupation in life and in doing his job well I might add magically transformed himself into a whole other person. That the world perceives in a whole new way. But the guy he went to school with that got a job as a worker and worked hard and is good at it.. (Is still a nigger.) Wait wait wait you can't say that. But its the truth. Is this fair is this right it this the way it should be. Or is there something wrong. Or is it like Jesus said when they were about to put the oil on his head and feet one came up and said should we not sell this oil and give the money to the poor. And Jesus said the poor will always be here..That is prophetic!!!! One of the best lines in the bible..I have a hope that someday a man planting rice in China will be payed the same as a Dr. in New York City Or a man fishing in Haiti or a woman waiting tables at your local cafe
Or the man who drives the trash truck. or plays the songs on the radio or scores the winning touchdown. Or the girl who sells herself on the street corner. Yes even her.....Everyone has there place in this world. There will always be the poor. But the man who will work should be rewarded for it and treated with respect and dignity. I have a hope that someday these things will come true. I have a hope ..One mans Opinion
