[Vision2020] Neo-Nazi Plans North Idaho Event

[keely emerinemix]

Sensing as I do that the Spokesman Review post -- thank you, Tom -- will 
spark a discussion of "whites only" vs., say, an Italian Heritage Picnic, 
Juneteenth Festival, or Erin Go Bragh Party on St. Paddy's Day, I think now 
might be a good time to remind us all of this fact:

"White" power, "white" pride, "white heritage," etc., means nothing more 
than "to the exclusion and denigration of Jews, blacks, Asians, Latinos, 
Native Americans and other non-Anglo peoples -- the Other."  Celebrating 
one's Scottish, Mexican, Polish or African-American heritage is a beautiful 
expression of our God-given diversity; celebrating "white" celebrates the 
bigotry, racism, and violence of oppression that elevates hate to an ideal 
and the hater to icon status, even if it claims a century or so later that 
the oppressed enjoyed a harmonic, affectionate relationship with the 
oppressor.

Which, of course, would be something I know my Christian brothers and 
sisters throughout Moscow would never do.

PS to Doug Wilson -  How's my bumper sticker coming?

We could learn a lot from crayons: some are sharp, some are pretty, some are
dull, some have weird names, and all are different colors....but they all
exist very nicely in the same box.
