KINEO7's blog: "Ready for the truth!!"

The following scene took place on a British Airways flight between Johannesburg and London . This is a true story. A White woman, about 50 years old, was seated next to a Black man. Obviously disturbed by this, she called the air Hostess. 'Madam, what is the matter,' the Hostess asked. 'You obviously do not see it then?' she responded. 'You placed me next to a Black man. I do not agree to sit next to someone from such a repugnant group. Give me an alternative seat.' 'Be calm please, the Hostess replied. 'Almost all the seats on this flight are taken. I will go to see if another seat is available.' The Hostess went away and came back a few minutes later. 'Madam, just as I thought, there are no other available seats in Economy class. I spoke to the Captain and he informed me that there are also no seats in the Business class. All the same, we still have one seat in First class.' Before the woman could reply, the Hostess continued: 'It is unusual for our company to permit someone from Economy class to sit in First class. However, given the circumstances, the Captain feels that it would be scandalous to make someone sit next to someone so disgusting.' She turned to the Black man and said, 'Therefore, Sir, if you would like to, please collect your hand luggage, a seat awaits you in First class.' At that moment, the other passengers who were shocked by what they had just witnessed stood up and applauded. If you are against Racism, please send this message to all your friends.

Just Because He's Black A white man asked his black friend, 'Are you voting for Barack Obama just because he's black'? The black man responded by saying, "why not?" Hell, in this country men are pulled over everyday just because their black, passed over for promotions just cause their black, considered to be criminals just cause their black, and there are going to be thousands of you who wont be voting for him just cause he's black! However, you do not seem to have a problem with that! This country was built with the sweat and whip off the slaves black, and now a descendent of those same slaves has a chance to lead the same country, where we weren't even considered to be people, where we weren't allowed to be educated, drink from the same water fountains, eat in the same restaurants, or even vote, so yes, I'm going to vote for him! But it's not just because he's black, but because he is hope, he is change, and he now allows me to understand when my grandson says he wants to be president when he grows up, it is not a fairy tale but a short term goal. Because he sees, understands, and knows, he can achieve, withstand, and do anything just because he's black!
