Infuriating.
The movie "O Brother, Where Art Thou" really caught my interest and probed me to do some further research into a lot of the topics that came up in it. I'm not going to lie to you; I'm a curious person. Over the past few days, I've been doing a lot of research on the KKK and what they believe in. Again, the only reason I was looking at this is purely curiosity; I like to learn things. On their website, I came across an article titled "What Are YOU Watching On TV?" in their "Just for Kids" section. The article was written by a girl who looked to be about twelve or thirteen. The main idea of the article was about how many television shows on TV are promoting race-mixing, and how that's very bad. The article also talks about how there are so many television shows with African-American main characters and how appalling that is. What's appalling to me is how easily brainwashed children today are. Honestly, reading that article left me completely speechless. I have so many things to say to whoever that girl's parents are. I understand that the way we're raised by our parents has a huge influence on the people we'll become in the future, but how can you be so brainwashed into thinking that every race besides Caucasian and every religion besides Christianity is unacceptable? I know people who have racist parents or grandparents, and those people aren't racist at all. It's extremely possible to deviate from what your adults in your life tell you. Why are there so many children out there being talked into thinking that the complete hatred of everyone but your own kind is 100% right. I'm not going to get too into the religious aspect of the KKK. However, I will say that there are a plethora of Bible verses telling you to love thy neighbor as thyself. If the KKK is so Christianity-oriented, maybe they should listen to the most set-in-stone thing the Christian religion has.
