piece of the pie. The rich of America are
hogging the whole pie.       '• j     ■N.
Your solution to this problem is very-
simple "... to succeed ybuVe got to put
In the effort." That's an extremely my¬
opic way of thinking In order to solve
major problems such as racism, clas-
sism, sexism, and other forms of dis¬
crimination which mainly stem from In¬
equitable distribution of wealth and
wage exploitation.
For years people of color and poor
Whites have worked extremely hard,
putting in every "effort* In working just
to survive. In fa ct. the working class of
America are the backbone of this coun¬
try. How do you think that lemon, or¬
ange, grape, or head of lettuce got in
your refrigerator? They dldn'tjust grow
in there or roll in.
And I know you didn't get your hands
dirty picking them like the Chlcanos.
How do you think that leather back¬
pack, those penny loafers, argyie socks,
or designer Jeans got on your unappre-
ciative body? I hope you don't believe
Santa's elves made them. And you can't
tell me no "effort" went Into making
those little necessities. "
Truth is, no matter how much faster
a Chicano picks' an orange, or how
much harder a Native American prunes
ajree. or how much quicker an African
American or Asian American sews a
pair of Jeans, or how much harder a
poor White worksatlaylng bricks, more
"effort" is not going to make things
better for the poor.
Moreover, the working class are
constantly being exposed to extreme
temperature variations due to lack of
heating or air conditioning, deadly
-chemicals, physically deteriorating
labor, and factory machines that chop
off their fingers.. The harder the poor
people of color and poor Whites work,
the .more they're taken advantage of,
and the shorter their life span.
In your concluding statement you
say "Do something that will benefit
humanity. Then maybe people will look
up to you." And yes, Anna Daza, I agree
with you. again. If you do something
that will benefit "jjie power* (your
humanity), the owners of production,
exploiters, racists, and power elites will
look up to you. But. unlike you, I want
to do something that will benefit the real
humanity of this country, the working
class, i don't want to help make the rich
richer. v
I want the poor people of this country
to have economic, political, and social
equality and that's why I spend my time
and energy fighting for the poor. Unlike
you, I'm not trying to win a popularity
contest with Bush or Trump. So, Anna
Daza, goabout your business. Continue*
to let people of color and poor Whites be^
exploited, oppressed, and denied .free¬
doms. Turn a deaf ear to the poor that
are crying In the streets. Just^walk
around them, better yet, why dont to
you walk on them so the rich (the power)
will accept you and respect you even
more.
P.S. Fight "the power."
"What is the answer to
the ultimate question of
life, the universe, and
everything?"
