Hi Julia,

You are of help! Please do not leave on my accord.

I am truly sorry that my truth, in your eyes ,makes me prejudiced. Think
about those 8 million slaves that didn't make it. across the water. Think
about those 2 million that did.

I think that those Black Americans that are on skid row are hurting also.
They need your help in finding their dignity, morality, and pride back.

Perhaps you prefer that riots would service instead of talk. I hurt every
time I read about abused, harassed, maimed, beaten, and degraded people but
I don't stop helping because one of my ancestors was cruel.

If you sympathies with those cruel ancestors, then by all means rope out.

If you are ashamed for them, do what you can to make a wrong thing right.

Joseph M. Linzy Sr.
Chief Master Sergeant, (E-9),
