This is Holocaust Remembreance Day, 2021. We have had a reminder of how such a soul wrenching horror could ever have happened. Visible hatred has walked the US on social media because we are all now our own movie studios and movie theatres. It does shed a light. In the short term it can inflame, but truth needs to be witnessed, especially when it is ugly.

But we have a long way to go before we are at the level of wanton destruction seen in Germany in the first half of the last century. Unfortunately, the slippery slope into the rounding up and slaughtering of most of an entire ethnic group crept up rapidly after a prolonged black public relations campaign teaching mistrust, disrespect, and separation before it ever led to extreme hatred and then to complete dehumanization

The institution of slavery, after which came the Jim Crow laws which provided for the easy arrest and incarceration of African American men in the southern states so they could be used for free labor, again, is bad enough. We have used the social justice system for economic relief of whites by cheapening the human value of blacks. Don't look at Nazis and think it can't happen here.

I am white and female. I grew up just barely below the Mason Dixon Line. The only thing I had to fear from a traffic cop was the price of the ticket, or if my parents would find out. I have friends who had to fear degradation brutality or worse.

I apologize to those for whom the Holocaust is sacred. I hope everyone will read and apply the Universal Declaration of Human Rights. "Human rights must be made a reality, not an idealistic dream.",said L. Ron Hubbard. It takes all of us to make it so.
