I wondered where he'd got to.
Louis Farrakhan has crawled out of the woodwork to make comments about the aftermath of hurricane katrina.
First, we have this little pearl of wisdom:
"New Orleans is the first of the cities going to tumble down... unless America changes its course. It is the wickedness of the people of America and the government of America that is bringing the wrath of God down." -- Louis Farrakhan explains what happened in New Orleans was divine punishment for America.
Then, we have this gem of a quote:
"FEMA is too white to represent us and so is the Red Cross, so we're going to demand our place at the table." -- Louis Farrakhan*the following is a rant*
First of sall, if a white person has said that there would be much rage and fury, shouts and complaints of racism and prejudice.
What, exactly, does he want? What does he want to happen? Does he want qualified white people to be passed over for positions at FEMA and the Red Cross so that a less qualified black person can have a job there? Has the recent clusterfuck by underqualified people in positions of authority not shown him ANYTHING????? Does he want those organizations to create jobs specifially for black people?
If he wants "his people" to be represented, then he should encourage "his people" to apply for the jobs that are available, not 'demand' that jobs be created so that they can 'represent'.
*rant ends. Thank you for listening.*
