Isn’t It Time?

I heard a man comment about Barak Obama today, he said that if the election of Obama would would finally put an end to the constant cries of racism he would vote for Obama himself.

It got me to thinking.

Americans of all ethnicities have risin to the top of their respective fields in every endeavor; sports, music, television, motion pictures, politics, science, literary, you name it.

Now Mr Obama is the odds on favorite to hold the highest elected office in this land. Have we not reached the point where opportunity is truly equal?

It is time to end segregation in this country, Why do we need black history month? As though no black person in history can stand on his/her own without segregating their accomplishments by race.

Why do we need a Miss Black America? Is she not pretty enough to be Miss America?

And what about the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People? Are all people not worthy of advancement?

Why do we need Affirmative Action anymore? Isn’t it about time we judged a person by the content of his character and not the color of his skin?

I’m just sayin….
