Nomination 62M2Q – Regal White Star Archivist Review:

Title Line: “My Caucasian Friend, Regal White Star”
Salutation Greeting: Sincere Genuflection

• (Genuflect; to bend a knee to the ground out of respect and or homage to another.)

From: A Different Color Friend
Element #9, Introduction: "My Caucasian Friend, I want you to know;"
Quote: “What lies before us and what lies behind us are tiny matters compared to what lies within us.” –Ralph Waldo Emerson

• (Underneath our skin, we are all the same.)
• (Interesting point, Mr. Emerson in his day and time “took a knee” and denounced the Fugitive Slave Act of 1850 a year later with these words; "You have a law which no man can obey, or abet the obeying, without loss of self-respect and forfeiture of the name of gentleman." –Ralph Waldo Emerson, 1851)

Message Element: 
“My Caucasian Friend, you were cool from the start and cool to the end.” 

• (Where or when does racism begin to take hold of a person?)
• (It’s never too late to look beyond what you think you know about someone.)

“You made me feel accepted, never misdirected”

• (If you have never experienced rejection, then you have not fully experienced the true and wonderful feeling of acceptance.)  

​“You could have been so different, like the masters and the others.”

• (Remember the selected Quote Element here: “…what lies behind us…” The past is the past and what matters most is what we do or don’t do now.  In this day and age, the Internet does not forget.

​“But instead, our spirits became like sisters and brothers.”

​“And in your eyes and cries, “

“…we see truth, there are no divisive lies; “

• (We must remember and be on guard to not let others find a way to divide us and hinder the progress we have made already together.)

“…you are what you are, a Regal White Star.”

Thank You Element: “Thanks For Being A Beautiful Person”

• (People of all races and backgrounds can be cruel to one another; But those who have the ability to see beyond one’s skin color or race tend to have many other morally positive internal values.) 

PS Element: “Your Friends of a Different Color will stand or kneel, fight or party beside you every day!”

• (Many of us would like to think or believe that, in some alternate world or universe, if things were reversed, people of color would stand up or kneel for the rights and freedoms of oppressed Caucasians.  Unfortunately, you do not have to go to another verse to experience this for there are many documented and known occurrences of Caucasians experiencing racial hatred and injustices from people of color as well. 
• (Wherever or from whomever racism may come from, It really doesn’t matter because; “Racism will always be a negative human trait that no one should subscribe too without loss of self-respect and the forfeiture of the name of Human.” –Ralph Waldo Emerson Today, 2017)

Nomination Summary

It’s been said and I’ve heard myself many times before that; “…this is a white man’s world”.  If this statement is in fact true, then nomination 62M2Q has just become that much more meaningful & powerful.  If this is not true, then we need to stop saying this and to acknowledge that this world belongs to all of us and that there are many people of all racial mixes that hold no grudges towards you or any skin color and that you are seen for exactly what you wish to project unto others.

Surprisingly still, in this day and age, there are so many opportunities (for a lack of a better word), that arise for people of all colors to stand up and unite against racism. 

And when, not if, when that day happens, what will you do?

Parting Quote: “How wonderful to see the white brothers and sisters, all the different colors standing up out of a love for black people who are being victimized too often by a racist criminal justice system.  It’s a beautiful thing to behold.” –Dr. Cornel West
