Follow on Google News | President Obama delivers a personal opinion, “Gay people should be able to get married.""We do not need this personal opinion in further separation of families in our communities. Although I support President Barack Obama, I do not support any personal opinion that destroys the institution of the Black Woman or the Black Church.”
By: Art Rocker Rocker continues, “We know the church does not need us, but we need the church. We also note, black women have survived and prevailed throughout all of the challenges they have had with black men and families. However, now we do not need this personal opinion in further separation of families in our communities and our culture.” “We have won all of our uprising on prayer, faithfulness and grace day by day for this industry; the Black church and the Black woman. But for this issue to be placed at a time of lack of jobs, lack of hope, lack of a prevailing education system, is creating another issue in the black family; all combined killing the aspirations of Black Children. The churches of our community that were built with nickels, dimes, and quarters, now are having the most difficult time sustaining financially after incurring multiple challenges including the alarming rate of black men incarcerated and away from the home. Additionally, minorities hold the highest rate for unemployment and the highest rate of broken homes.” “Is there a need for the President to discuss his personal belief that two men should be able to get married? I honestly believe Mr. President could make a better assessment of a personal opinion reflecting on how Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. and Mahatma Gandhi walked and protested peacefully concerning injustice that was not based on personal opinion but fact dealing with true human rights and civil rights. Although I still support President Barack Obama, I do not support any personal opinion that destroys the institution and sustainability of the Black Woman or the Black Church.” Art Rocker For additional information on Florida SCLC, please visit www.SCLCFL.org or contact Jessica Donahue, P: 404-840-6764 End
