Imagine there's no Heaven
It's easy if you try
No hell below us
Above us only sky
Imagine all the people
Living for today
Imagine there's no countries
It isn't hard to do
Nothing to kill or die for
And no religion too
Imagine all the people
Living life in peace
You may say that I'm a dreamer
But I'm not the only one
I hope someday you'll join us
And the world will be as one
Imagine no possessions
I wonder if you can
No need for greed or hunger
A brotherhood of man
Imagine all the people
Sharing all the world
It's easy if you try
No hell below us
Above us only sky
Imagine all the people
Living for today
Imagine there's no countries
It isn't hard to do
Nothing to kill or die for
And no religion too
Imagine all the people
Living life in peace
You may say that I'm a dreamer
But I'm not the only one
I hope someday you'll join us
And the world will be as one
Imagine no possessions
I wonder if you can
No need for greed or hunger
A brotherhood of man
Imagine all the people
Sharing all the world

"The Jews are undoubtedly a race, but not human. They cannot be human in the sense of being an image of God..." --Adolf Hitler (May 1923 speech, Munich)
Why and how did racism and discrimination derive? It is true that the human species is more alike to each other than any other animal species. It is true that our genetic code is 99.999% the same. It is true that we share all these characteristics, yet we treat each other so differently. It is true that we are the most violent animal species. It is true that our species kills its own species more than any other animal. It is true that the only differences we have is our appearance, which was inherited through history and geography. It is true that our only differences are so minute and miniscule that the colour of our skin is nothing compared to the content of our character. It is true that for centuries, many different people have influenced youth and adults to believe racism is right and racism is wrong. It is true that racism should not exist in a world where we all need to work together to love and make peace. Therefore, it is true that Adolf Hitler was indeed the second anti-christ and that he rewrote the commandments so they could suit how he saw the world, (in his own way). Therefore, it is true that if the people of Germany opened their eyes to the violence and stood up to the German army, the holocaust may have been avoided. Adolf Hitler.. May he rest in peace and find clarity in his resting place..

If someone calls themselves a child of God,
yet still have the indecency to say something so hateful,
they do not know the meaning of brother or sister.
We are all together, serving as God's children.
To go against any one of His children,
based on the colour of the skin God gave him,
is to directly disrespect the work God has created.
To go against any one of His children,
based on the colour of the skin God gave him,
is to show your cowardice and the way you see society.
To go against any one of His children,
based on the colour of the skin God gave him,
is to confess that your morals are weak, and you are unable to stand.
Martin Luther King Jr., I and so many others...
We all have the same dream, and expect others to open their eyes,
and succumb to the truth of the tragedy caused in the past,
and the truth of the tragedy that still continues to this day...
Dream Variations by Langston Hughes
To fling my arms wide
In some place of the sun,
To whirl and to dance
Till the white day is done.
Then rest at cool evening
Beneath a tall tree
While night comes on gently,
Dark like me-
That is my dream!
To fling my arms wide
In the face of the sun,
Dance! Whirl! Whirl!
Till the quick day is done.
Rest at pale evening...
A tall, slim tree...
Night coming tenderly
Black like me.
In some place of the sun,
To whirl and to dance
Till the white day is done.
Then rest at cool evening
Beneath a tall tree
While night comes on gently,
Dark like me-
That is my dream!
To fling my arms wide
In the face of the sun,
Dance! Whirl! Whirl!
Till the quick day is done.
Rest at pale evening...
A tall, slim tree...
Night coming tenderly
Black like me.

This is the ending of a very beautiful movie, "La Vie est Belle."
This movie, despite its title, is tragic, but warms ones heart,
because of the innocence and purity the characters in the movie reveal.
Only so many fathers would go to those lengths to savour the innocence in his son...
Only so many fathers would pretend war is just a game, where prizes and points are given...
Only so many fathers would smile and laugh, while they sacrifice their life for their family...

Here is a Georgia State Trooper in riot gear at a KKK protest in a north Georgia city back in the 80s. The Trooper is black. Standing in front of him and touching his shield is a curious little boy dressed in a Klan hood and robe. I have stared at this picture and wondered what must have been going through that Trooper’s mind. Before the Trooper is an innocent child who is being taught to hate him because of the color of his skin. The child doesn’t understand what he is being taught, and at this point he doesn’t seem to care. Like any other child his curiosity takes hold and he wants to explore this new thing that this man is holding probably because he can see his reflection in it and that’s a neat thing and he wants to check it out. In this picture I see innocence mixed with hate, the irony of a black man protecting the right of white people to assemble in protest against him, temperance in the face of ignorance, and hope that racism can be broken because this young boy may remember that a black man smiled at him once and he didn’t seem so bad after all.

This portion of the Death Camps tour looks at the history of holocaust. By comparing Germany's Nazi holocaust and America's abortion holocaust you'll see there is practically no difference between the mindset of holocaust then and now. As with slavery in early America, killing Jews in Nazi Germany, or killing babies in America today -- just because something is legal does not make it right. So how do you get a country to allow humans to be treated worse than animals? You use euphemisms to convince people that these actions are justifiable, or even beneficial.
Abortion advocates and America's largest Death Camp operator, Planned Parenthood, have elevated the dehumanization of holocaust victims to an art form with their 'pro-choice' rhetoric. But those who side with the pro-choice crowd may be shocked by the racial slurs and elitist ideals of Planned Parenthood's celebrated founder, Margaret Sanger. As you'll see, her words and goals bear an eerie similarity to the words and ideas of the Nazis. Let's begin by looking at the famous Nazi Death Camp doctor who graduated from killing Jews to killing babies.
Dr. Josef Mengele was the most active of the SS doctors at Auschwitz, the infamous Nazi concentration camp. Present at the arrival of all the transports, Mengele oversaw the selection and cremation of thousands of murder victims at Auschwitz. His name was known and feared throughout the camp. Several accounts of camp survivors depict Mengele as killing in a dispassionate, medical way "as though he were performing regular surgery without showing any emotion at all."
Mengele routinely conducted experiments on humans, the most famous of which were conducted on twins selected on the unloading platforms of Auschwitz. At the end of the experiments, Mengele simply injected chloroform directly into the hearts of many of these twins. After the war, Josef Mengele practiced medicine in Buenos Aires in the 1950's. He "had a reputation as a specialist in abortions," which were illegal at the time. Mengele was arrested after he killed a girl in his abortion clinic, but an Argentine judge released him. Mengele was never extradited and presumably died in Chile in 1979.
But Mengele wasn't the only one. Vilis Kruze was a former SS officer who after the war worked as an abortionist for Kaiser Permenente in Ohio and Hawaii. It seems you can take the doctor out of the killing camp, but you can't take the killing camp out of the doctor.
Today, abortion is justified by claiming the killing of babies is "safe and legal." Dr. Michael Jackson, an abortionist and clinic owner said, "I just go by what the courts say. I only do what's legal." These were the same justifications used by doctors who participated in the massacre of millions at Auschwitz. Zyklon-B, the poison gas used to kill the Jews, was seen as helping to alleviate suffering and permit "humane killing".
At Nuremberg, numerous Nazi doctors and killers said they were innocent because they had broken no law. "The jurists in Berlin told us this was a legal matter," testified Walter Schmidt, "quite legal." According to an expert on Auschwitz, "The Nazis committed no crime at Auschwitz since no law or political order protected those who were condemned."
In fact, the legality itself helped to distance the killers from the killing - if it was legally ordered or at least permitted, then the killing was someone else's fault. At the trial held for nurses who injected infants and children with lethal substances, the heart of their defense of was that the killing was carried out in conformity of the existing laws. The defense claimed that "these people were only carrying out the laws of the land" and "the accused did not act wrongly because they were covered by law."

A couple of days ago, my geography teacher showed us a short documentary/film about Corporations and I decided to feature a short clip from the film in this blog, just to open some eyes and raise awareness about the blind eye of society. A major company was associated with the worst genocide record in the history of the world; The Holocaust. How does a large company remain a large company with a giant elephant in the room, not to mention the millions dead partially on their behalf? Please watch this six minute clip and sympathize for the millions and sympathize for the future because these are the types of companies and corporations that run our every day lives...

In many ways, history is marked as 'before' and 'after' Rosa Parks. She sat down in order that we all might stand up, and the walls of segregation came down. --Jesse Jackson
Racism is the hateful act of believing one race is nothing to your own. It is the process in which one thinks that they are greater, more powerful, and that a certain race or culture has no value. In which Bible did God say to show disrespect to a person based on their colour, race, religion, age or sex? On what planet is there no discrimination, no segregation, no racism? One day, I hope to say that Earth knows not of discrimination, segregation, or racism, but follows the acts of equality and peace. When is it right to mock someone? Didn't God create all of us in his own image? Didn't God send Jesus to teach us to value all human life? Didn't Jesus die for all of us? If this was so, then we are all the same species; humans. What was the reason for the start of mankind's struggle to unite? Were these acts destined to happen so it could help us evolve? Or was it that these acts are here to help us understand that these labels given to us steal their way into our lives? The acts of Adolf Hitler express this hatred, this shame; it shows of its malice and evil; the slaying of 6 million because of their culture.. To me, this is where the line runs jagged because it was crossed too many times.
