Letter To America

Dear America and  your illusion of greatness.  Your wealth and prosperity and honor and democracy. Has not been built upon these principals and ideals, that you wish others to believe that this country was built upon.

It was built upon a theft of a nation, the blood and sweat of a nation and human degradation. Not on the moral grounds of humanity, yet it was built on the dehumanization of the people you have violently snatched it from.

On the whipped backs of slaves, and on the trail of tears that you have created. What civilization have you given those that you have colonized. What pride have you given your children to be proud of.
 
What moral code have you left to be guided by. Less they take pride in being barbaric, without morals.
 
This is your contribution to their greatness.  You want to strip the history of slavery from your classrooms, as it would strip you of your shame.
Strip you of your hypocritical claim of freedom justice and liberty of all.

Your American missionaries go around the world to convert those you have colonized to your religion. The very book that  you profess to serve, contradicts your actions.

 You say forget about the past, it was the past, yet the face of that past still exists today.
 
Yet it wears a different face. All those that you have oppress can see it. Yet you cannot face the mirror, afraid to see your own reflection.  Oh God bless America from sea to shining sea.

Yet you have murdered and committed theft from sea to shining sea. Have murder and oppressed from sea to shining sea.

Your meaning of liberty is the liberty to commit crimes against humanity. Your justice means just us. Your freedom is to dumb down the masses.

With your propaganda, to create the illusion of a civilization.  That rob and killed and destroyed  great civilizations.
When the the only contributions you have made to those you have oppressed, is misery and death.
 What can you claim in truth that is rightfully yours.

All of your wealth is tainted with blood. And your nation hands is painted in the blood of all you have dehumanized.
My letter to America is for you to wipe your hands clean with atonement. And this will be the only thing you have done great for humanity..

Yet it would be recognize. And honored as the most difficult and greatest thing you ever done.
