1) Just because you attend church and believe in God does not mean you’re not a racist.

2) Just because you cheer for players of other races whom may play for your favorite NBA, NFL, college sports, or fantasy football team, does not mean you are not a racist.

3) Just because you don’t mind eating at the same table with someone of another ethnicity does not mean you are not a racist.

4) Just because your favorite actor or television show host is someone of another ethnicity does not mean you are not a racist.

5) Just because you like music performed by individuals from other ethnic groups does not mean you are not a racist.

6) Just because you would have sexual relations with someone of another ethnicity does not mean you are not a racist.

7) Just because you find yourself feeling sorry for “those people” and may have donated money or food, does not mean you are not a racist.

The slave master went to church and praised god. Slave masters gambled each other while competing their slaves against one another. They often cheered for their slaves to win the competition. Every now and then the slave master would let his slave eat in the big house, and sometimes a slave was rewarded and allowed to eat at the table with the master. The slave master often enjoyed the entertainment of his slaves through musical performance, dancing and humorous skits. The slave master often had sex with the slave and sometimes would make sure that his slaves ate well and were clothed during the winter.

THE SLAVE MASTERS ALWAYS FELT SUPERIOR TO THE SLAVE NO MATTER HOW OFTEN THEY MAY HAVE BONDED (Peace, Love, Unity and Togetherness/ Stay 1up)
