Ola my fellow Americans welcome to the Journal and of course my name is Michael Jae.

In Deerfield this past week, 19 year old black woman Alicia Harden was arrested for writing hate letters to minority students saying that she was going to kill them and other great stuff. She did this all in the name of getting out of Trinity University. I thought maybe doing too many drugs, crashing a car through the building, or just the normal sitting down and talking to your parents about your feelings would do, but hey, what do I know? By passing these letters around, she could tell her parents that she was scared because her peers were being targeted, and they would take her out of the school. Apparently during an interrogation, Harden confessed and there really was no stink about it except concern and worry. Yet, imagine if Harden was white. Do you think the outcome would be the same?

If Harden were white, we would see everyone’s favorite media ho Jesse Jackson run to Deerfield and demand that swift justice would be passed down. We would see the media make a circus out of this event, and then we would see so many people who work at Trinity making a special case to be nice to minorities. Well I say screw that shit. Minorities should be treated as equals to white. By the way, why are they even called minorities? By saying that, are we labeling them a “minor cause to help build a major society?”

Many people want to talk about the differences between blacks and whites on a daily basis, and people say racism still exists. Especially black people. However, I think that black people feel racism still exists not because people are saying the N word here and there. I think they feel like many white people coddle them in order to say “everything is OK. We are your friends. We are here to help.” The truth of the matter is there are some white people out there that are racist, but at the same time there are black people who are racist as well.

Racism is a fact of life we must deal with. But the heart of racism lies in the minds of bitter, ignorant, men and women who do not want to see past the lines and truly wish to treat people equally. Although there are many problems with this, I believe the media plays one of the biggest parts in dividing black and white. This became clear to me during the O.J. trial. The news was constantly talking about how this trial was cracking the relations between blacks and whites, and I thought that was bullshit. I am sure for every black man who wanted to see O.J. go free, there were three to four white people who agreed and vice versa. The media was bored so they wanted to create a story that wasn’t there. They wanted to raise questions that did not need to be answered at the time. The only important thing was O.J. Simpson, guilty or innocent. When the verdict was announced, the cameras went to South Central L.A. to show a black community center celebrating it, while we saw downtown the whites were disturbed. This was a case of a man standing trial for murder, no matter what color his skin was. A man who was accused of murdering his wife. Yeah, she was white, but that has nothing to do with it because guess what? When she was killed, she bled red. A color that blacks and whites squirt out of their skin if they get stabbed. Many times in the news, you will see black people get blamed for crimes that turn out white people commit. You want to call me a black lover, go ahead. I am not standing up for black people; I am just telling it like it is. I am proud to be a white Italian, Irish, American. I am grateful to be a white male because I do not have to fight the fights that women and minorities have to fight.
