JESUS loves all….we should also. America, Stop the hate, love like JESUS!
To much hate coming out of Washington D.C. that is a shame.
Whoever does not love does not know God, because God is love. 1 John 4:8
God looks at all of us as His people, He does not divide us into groups.
Sometimes I am awe struck by the bad language coming out of ‘so called Christians’ mouths and their postings on Facebook.
Here is a report from WalletHub:
With Martin Luther King Jr. Day around the corner and 58 percent of Americans saying increased diversity makes the U.S. a better place while only 9 percent say it makes the U.S. worse – the personal-finance website WalletHub today released its report on 2019’s States with the Most Racial Progress as well as accompanying videos.
To measure America’s progress in harmonizing racial groups, WalletHub measured the gaps between blacks and whites across 22 key indicators of equality and integration in each of the 50 states and the District of Columbia. The data set ranges from median annual income to standardized-test scores to voter turnout.
This report examines the differences between only blacks and whites in light of the high-profile police-brutality incidents that sparked the Black Lives Matter movement and the holiday honoring Dr. Martin Luther King Jr., who played a prominent role in the Civil Rights Movement to end segregation and discrimination against blacks.
