Black Spirituality Religion : THE ROOT CAUSE OF COMMUNITY BREAKDOWN

Whatever we have happening today multiply it by 1,000 to see how often it happened back in the holier years.

you seem to think that black people getting equal legal rights with whites came about from black people not going to church , but the reason why black people were able to make the civil rights movement effective is because of the church with helped to organize and mobolize black people in the movement.

it happens alot more often than "a few dozen" Racism is illegal today because of a black christian minister(MLK) was able to make that final push to put civil rights legislation in motion.

MLK did not have to be a Christian to achieve what he did.

His christian beliefs is what allowed him to be so successful in getting civil rights bills passed.

Perhaps, but Muslims were also influential with Civil Rights, and they are not Christian. The religion doesn't matter as much as an individual's tenacity and spirit. Most Civil Rights groups came from a Christian background because our country is Christian. If our country was Buddhist, then perhaps Civil Rights leaders would've been Buddhist.

Muslims by and large really didnt try to to help race relations but rather taught that the best solution was seperation between black and white people.
If it werent for christianity white would still be able to legally keep us second class citizens because there wouldnt be any moral reason to respect our rights .
