Last week an open mind, @catstemplar2, raised a valid question/descussion on ethnicity I found very interesting and constantly avoided. These are just my views, my theory as to why we can't come together as one and where this mess is stemmign from. I commented on it and he/she asked me to share my views on this in which i was happily abliged to do so. Here is the topic and question at hand:
"since the dawn of time man has lived in groups or tribes. It was a way for people to survive in numbers. The more the more powerful the tribe. The world has advanced and we still in a way live within these borders or tribes to exist and to find our true identity as a race or group of people.
Do you think that one day these lines that divide us as a group of people, in this crazy world of ours, will one day be erased and then, the true scope of the United Nations will be realized?"
I won't go deep into the historical background of the world but I'll shed light from all angles. History of countries and its people show that racism wasn't as prominent then if not at all as it so much is now. As far as the division of the people within a country originated from governments in a country and its Politics and Religion; if you look at Rome and the Greeks, Mongols, China, Japan, Africa and etc. What echoed since the beginning of time in man and tribe was tyranny in which resulted in all the famous history of wars we've read about. What people fail to realize is that the whole term of "race" and this ethnic classification was created by the Federal Government in distinguishing a group of people.
Giving that said, something I don't think is easily spoken of is the fact that the tribe or group of people that became dominant very quickly were the Europeans. They've become powerful in government thus Politics, Religion and eventually - the financial system (banks) which began to spread all over the world. Yet we must also ask ourselves, was it the European people or was it the Power Structure (government) formed IN Europe that spawned the many ugly and evil ideology's that infested the minds of souls of people all over the world. As far as I see it there was always dominance of the people, the tribes and cultures in each country and turmoil (this tribe vs that tribe). It wasn't in till each country began adapting a Government and the subsidiaries under it (Democracy and Communism) where we started seeing the rise in Racism and Division amongst the people. This Power coming out of Europe altered the minds of the Europeans creating the ugliest ideology known to mankind where capitalism and tyranny became a force to be reckoned with on the expense of other people, other tribes. You'll be surprised back in those times how easily hate could have influence a group of people if it's instigated by a government. Europe's government hands of tyranny and slavery had spread to Israel , Africa, South America, the islands (ie. Haiti), the country of the Native Americans, all over the world and I can go on. This power structure had begun seeping to every corner of the earth.
I won't start spatting about the Illuminati this and that on here but i will say that a force was created a long time ago. A force that has found a way to USE one race to be superior to another race/s thus being the incubant for what we see today. In theory and in my opinion I truly believe that Europeans were used to implement this hatred. It could have been Asia as London and Russia as the United States and Russia having their own lynchings of Africans or what have you. Everywhere you go where there is some form of government you see this racism and division. I say that because it has become evident here and in Europe that not only Blacks and whites are in deep doo doo but every race is in trouble as you see how the governments are sucking us dry. It's the youth (such as myself) all over the world INCLUDING here in America catching wind to the origins of this mess and they're growing tired and frustrated of being jerked around and lied to by the governments. It's these old farts in and out of politics brewing this and passing this ideology down to their generation of childiren. Look at Rome, Greece, Syria, Egypt, England and other countries overseas tired of their governments and the jacked up financial systems. In the Middle East they have more balls to stand up for what is right and protest and when their protests are met with violence - then you see bloodshed. Also the governments there as far as the military are too close to civilians as far as technology is concerned. Yet the civilians outnumber the government hence the reason why they stand up and do it together. As for Americans and Europeans there is a far cry distance between the military and the people. Though as a people we outnumber the government and military, we do not outnumber the military's technology to "put us back in our place". The technology makes up for that. HENCE the reason why all you will see is protest in these two City States because they got us that under controlled. Now you got folks here in America who wanna start shit and wanna hurt American citizens due to their radical ideas and reasoning in taking a shot at the government and people like them deserve the serious beat down.
So answering your question from what the evidence are and the tracks left behind and being paved using the blue prints of yesterday. Government is the root of Racism, Division, hatred, finger pointing, and so forth. It's Symbolic off the break - in representing a divide; Republic, Democratic, liberals, leftists, whatever you name it. THEN you throw religion into the mix! smh...before this power there were people who were aware of a higher power, they respected the earth, they traded with foreigners from all over the world (Columbus has documented this), and didn't do things beyond there means. Of Course There was war among the tribes but yet it was definitely for a reason. You can see that in the history of Native Americans of North America, Central America and South America, Africa, Australia, All of Asia, Middle East and Europe. Not talking bad on religion (I'm a Christian myself) but I find it quite ironic that the moment government, religion and money was brought about Racism and division among the people in the world began and slowly but surely it became to the mess we see today. Because when you look at tribes all over the world including Native Americans they weren't affected in till a form of government a dictatorship as well as the influence of religion fell upon them. This isn't to say religion is bad at all either.
I believe in my heart that one day the lines that divide us will be broken down, that we will one day see a REAL United Nations and the people within them. But as long as there is a structure that influences this hate and division the more you'll have the constant tension between White and Blacks, Blacks and Latino's, Whites and Latino's, Japanese and Chinese, Irish and Italians, Sunni and Shia Muslims and I can go down the list of issues between groups all over the world. Like recently a small article was posted about the many places in America that STILL had racist names to them be those Mountains, Roads, Avenues, Hotels and other places and the white people in the government and citizens fight to keep these names alive! How do you expect to create peace, heal the wounds, when you want to keep that which symbolizes the pain of the past. There is a difference in keeping history in books and keeping physical history to remind those you've oppressed. Look up Wap Draw in Wyoming, Jewtown in Georgia, Wetback Tank in New Mexico, how about Texas Gov. Rick Perry's hunting ground "Niggerhead"...Check out the issues in South Africa...Shoot...WASHINGTON REDSKINS...really!?!? and folks fight to keep this mess going. We need to break down the structure...once we do that THEN we can learn as a collective and start this long process of breaking down the mindset this structure has created.
