Good News: Division IS the Illusion

in #thealliance7 years ago

Today, I witnessed a young black man smash the driver's window out of old white man's car. Seconds earlier, this old white man had a seizure and was driving down the wrong lane of the hwy 174 when he almost hit the black man head-on and then plunged his car 40-50 ft off of an embankment and into a pine tree. The white man was unconscious, bleeding, and the car was smoking and locked. Without hesitation, the black guy grabbed the headlight that had been dislodged from the car and smashed the window to get in and check and see if he was breathing and needed CPR. We sat with the old man for a 30 minutes trying to comfort him until the ambulance got there. This man may have saved the old man's life. He didn't think twice about acting as his brother's keeper. Contrary to popular mass media propaganda, helping your fellow man is the true essence of human nature, in my opinion.

I always tell people that there are a lot of black criminals buth that they may not forget that there are just as many white criminals. Dont judge another race before looking to your own!
I could have said:"there are as many good black people as there are good white people" buth for some reason people dont seem to remember that as long as when i compare the amount of criminals.

I live in Alabama and there are prejudice that are exploited and dramatized from both sides all across our mass and social media platforms. I wrote this as a witness acount of the good humanity instinctively taking control of a dangerous situation. It was just an observation.

Sorry, while reading my comment over again, it did sound like i was occusing you of being a racist. That came out all wrong. I ment that i am glad that you are telling us this story because there are still a lot of people that live with prejudices buth it's hard to make them see the truth.

I Love reading things like this but it had to have been scary being there!!
