In the spirit, should you donate to a civil rights group? Of course not, and this is why:
There are those who are asking the devotees of civil rights, "When will you be satisfied?" We can never be satisfied as long as the Negro is the victim of the unspeakable horrors of police brutality. We can never be satisfied as long as our bodies, heavy with the fatigue of travel, cannot gain lodging in the motels of the highways and the hotels of the cities. We cannot be satisfied as long as the negro's basic mobility is from a smaller ghetto to a larger one. We can never be satisfied as long as our children are stripped of their self-hood and robbed of their dignity by signs stating: "For Whites Only." We cannot be satisfied as long as a Negro in Mississippi cannot vote and a Negro in New York believes he has nothing for which to vote. No, no, we are not satisfied, and we will not be satisfied until "justice rolls down like waters, and righteousness like a mighty stream."
-- MLK's dream speech
Those were the injustices:
- Racist policemen
- Racist hotels
- Poor black people
- Racist water fountains and bathrooms
- Racist polls
Hmm, how many of those really still exist in America? Only number 3, and that isn't a problem caused by racism. Trust me, when the civil rights people say "his work isn't finished" they lie so they can keep their jobs.
Why not just donate to an antipoverty group instead? After all, we are free at last to do so.
Thank God Almighty!
