Joe truly has the power; the power of the microphone.He obviously controls his agenda which is OK with me since the show is his.But what you may not realize is that he sometimes twists the truth.Case in point, just recently while attempting to debate an issue I misspoke and in error (subconsciously) added Christian to conservative when referencing a statement made earlier by Joe.Joe quickly killed the feed from my call and proceeded to chastise me for my error.After a long winded response he then led you to believe I was still on the air when in reality he had (with the power of the microphone) silenced me and disconnected my call.Joe then said I guess he hung up.I attempted to call back since he seemed willing to want to talk to me but I was hung up on a second time.True power, Joe truly has the power.As I have come to learn Joe makes his living capitalizing on the emotions of others.I have also learned that Joe does not like being challenged by conservatives nor does he tolerate African Americans who are not willing to shout his song of hate and discontent.I am beginning to recognize that for people like Joe, racism is their key to success.For without racism, they cant make a living.Joe loves to stir hate and discontent against folks like me without ever being willing to look at the content of my heart as I and others like me work daily to fight stereotypes that undermine the fabric of race relations.If Joe really cared about defeating racism, he would be willing to give credit to those who may be different but are sincerely working against racism.I am finally following the advice of friends and family as I as of this posting will cease to be involved with the Black Eagle.What was a sincere attempt to be open to the view of others has concluded in a reality of understanding.I now understand why I, a white conservative Christian, have faced road blocks trying to work with the African American community.You would think that one who has donated more than 1500 hours helping mostly needy African Americans might not face road blocks.But heres the sad reality.People like Joe are against the African American community partnering with folks like me.If they do, they are labeled Uncle Toms; a label that nobody wants.
One last word of advice for those who seem to worship the ground that Joe walks on, be careful for those in sheep skin who are in reality a wolf.Ironically, Joe makes a mockery of the honorable Dr. Martin Luther King.Joe loves to stir hate and discontent against folks like me without ever being willing to look at the content of my heart as I and others like me work daily to fight stereotypes that undermine the fabric of race relations. One last thought for you Joe; irregardless of your hate for folks like me and you desire to label us as evil, I will continue to serve my Lord and Savior Jesus Christ and His heavenly Father and honor Their command for me to help all in need irrespective of the color of their skin.
