The Walls are Broken

The eventual victory of Senator Barack Obama as the Presidential flag bearer of the Democratic Party in the upcoming elections in the United States brought two distinct messages among others to note:

(1) the age-long, elaborately perpetuated ideological conjunction and myth that being black or coming from certain unpopular background is disadvantageous and limiting, is erroneous and unfounded.

(2) the end has come to the division of humanity along the line of skin colour and pigment.

I dare to say that man’s greatest enemy to greatness is his mind. Success knows no ‘melanin or keratin’ (skin pigments responsible for skin colours). There are no superhuman or subhuman. We all create our world with the permission we give to negative or positive happenings around us into our mind and our life.

I challenge all seemingly-disadvantaged folks everywhere - Blacks, Hispanics, Caucasians etc to crave for knowledge and excellence and it will not matter where they come from or what their past looked like. They are to resist every iota of subjugation and devaluation and press on to achieve their dream because the walls are broken.
