Thomas Sowell Quotes
Blacks were not enslaved because they were black but because they were available. Slavery has existed in the world for thousands of years.

Africans enslaved other Africans, and indeed even today in North Africa, blacks continue to enslave blacks.

How we sit within the body is an extremely important part of the spiritual journey. The body itself is used either by the spirit within us, or by the fear-based mind. When it is used by the spirit, then it is a thing of holiness. How we dwell within it, how we treat it, and how we use it in relationship to other aspects of the planet is extremely important. When we use the body without reverence, we are destructive elements on the planet. We become destructive to ourselves, to other life forms, and to the earth.
Marianne Williamson
