-JZ Knight, June 12, 2020"WHITE GUILT..
I was, just a moment ago answering a lovely woman’s question... so I thought I would address this Race issue, which, I never had....
Some of this story is in my autobiography A STATE OF MIND..but this is a bit of expansion of that time 1948, Rockwall, Texas...
My mother had 9 children and I was next to last. We lived in a 2 1/2 room shack with a plank porch. She was a field worker, along with African Americans, & Mexicans. Every morning at dawn we all walked to the cotton
field . I was 2 yrs old.
All these beautiful people worked, sang and chattered while picking the cotton and putting into their sacks. All the children, different ages played around the seed wagon, ran up & down the cotton isles, while being scolded, by their families...
The lunch break, which was called ‘ dinner’ all gathered beneath the cool shade of the cotton wagons, pulled out all their wash tubs full of prepared food. Each group always brought their own fair, Southern food, Mexican food...laughter, sweat wiping, chatter.... the sweetest luncheons I ever had... strong in my memory till this day...
No one had their own vehicle, so a relative who had an old hauling truck. would come on Saturday morning and load us all in the back open to the sky, and drive into Rockwell. Mind you it was all of us families...
We unloaded on Main Street by the courthouse square park...
Sneers, and name calling always meet us... NI**ERS, WHITE TRASH, WET B**KS... I did not know why all the big folks stared at us with such smears, the older kids would get a quick tap on their heads with a scolding remark.. ‘keep your eyes down’, don’t stare...
I was WHITE TRASH,... too young to understand,.. I just loved all my little friends who took care of me being the youngest.
When the season was over, someone came, loaded up the mattresses & utensils, modest ole trunk and we left to New Mexico.... I cried all the way,.. feeling completely lost...
For the rest of my life, my closest friends would come from all walks of life as well belief systems... I have never had a racists bone in my Soul, therefore I have NO WHITE GUILT ...
This tragic clash today are those Evil people who have lived lavishly on the word RACISTS... they need you to be divided,... it’s how they survive... if we were just folks, they would loose their positions in power & prestige!!! And if I have no guilt, they can’t get me to donate to corrupt charities so I will feel better about myself.
I just love al folks... GOD MADE US ALL OUT OF LOVE ... when you come to love God,... you love others.... someone needs to remember that...."
Really, now?
"For the rest of my life, my closest friends would come from all walks of life as well belief systems... I have never had a racists bone in my Soul, therefore I have NO WHITE GUILT ..."
Not a racist bone in her soul, yet she got caught making racist remarks against Hispanics and Jews (and has done so in other events that didn't make it to the internet apparently). Oh, wait, that was Ramtha, so Ramtha is the racist, then? JZ never denounced Ramtha's racist remarks. How interesting.
