โWe bombed Hiroshima, we bombed Nagasaki, and we nuked far more than the thousands in New York and the Pentagon, and we never batted an eye.โ
โWe have supported state terrorism against the Palestinians and black South Africans, and now we are indignant because the stuff we have done overseas is now brought right back to our own front yards. Americaโs chickens are coming home to roost.โ (Sep 2001)
โThe government gives them the drugs, builds bigger prisons, passes a three-strike law and then wants us to sing โGod Bless America.โ No, no, no, God damn America, thatโs in the Bible for killing innocent people. God damn America for treating our citizens as less than human. God damn America for as long as she acts like she is God and she is supreme.โ (2003)
โIn the 21st century, white America got a wake-up call after 9/11/01. White America and the western world came to realize that people of color had not gone away, faded into the woodwork or just โdisappearedโ as the Great White West kept on its merry way of ignoring black concerns.โ (magazine article)
โRacism is how this country was founded and how this country is still run!โฆWe [in the U.S.] believe in white supremacy and black inferiority and believe it more than we believe in God.โ (sermon)
โBarack knows what it means living in a country and a culture that is controlled by rich white people. Hillary would never know that. Hillary ainโt never been called a nigger. Hillary has never had a people defined as a non-person.โ
โHillary is married to Bill, and Bill has been good to us. No he ainโt! Bill did us, just like he did Monica Lewinsky. He was riding dirty.โ (sermon)
โThe Israelis have illegally occupied Palestinian territories for over 40 years now. Divestment has now hit the table again as a strategy to wake the business community and wake up Americans concerning the injustice and the racism under which the Palestinians have lived because of Zionism.โ

Iโve known Reverend Wright for almost 20 years. The person that I saw yesterday was not the person that I met 20 years ago. His comments were not only divisive and destructive, but I believe that they end up giving comfort to those who prey on hate, and I believe that they do not portray accurately the perspective of the black church.
