Pastor Roosevelt Toussaint, was our guest on Called2Action this past week (4/1). Not surprisingly, we learned that the challenges the Haitian and Hispanic Community face are the same as that of African-Americans. We also learned that African American students are picking on the Haitian students in school, because of their cultural differences. When I first moved to the continental United States I found that African Americans were very narrow minded in attempting to understand different cultures, needless to say, appreciate other cultures. In addition the language barriers further compounds their problems.
What an amazement if the African American, the African Haitian and the Hispanic community would come together. Let's all start by trying to understand each others culture, particulary those that come to America.
The staff of the Called2Action program will be working on this with your help. Will we all come together? With God's help we will. Stay tuned... better still tune in, listen and let's get to action. Will you help us? May God continue to bless you.
