Imagine.

You’re in a car, driving, with God’s panorama flowing past your window, the wind bouncing off your bald scalp and suddenly you see things that the naked eye has never seen. It’s your third eye! Opening your vision, delving deep into your spiritual self, your psyche, your soul and the skies are blue with promising clouds. The road is smooth because you are. The world is in balance because you are. Through the third eye, your vision is all-encompassing, and you see life. You are!

Outside your window stands Koonye Bundy with a bullhorn, asking if Blacks are better off being slaves since they chose that life. Standing next to him is Donald Sterling, who is on the phone telling his girlfriend not to bring any Black people to his stadium. Racial attitudes have adopted a new, unspoken façade nowadays and for some, race has become a dog whistle for no good scavenger, catfish vulture rat- hounds.

Now cast your third eye to the rearview mirror. It’s the past back there! See it? It’s Jim Crow and minstrel shows, Stepin Fetchit and his cousin, Sleep n’Eat (Yeah, there was an actor who went by that name), there’s lynchings and cross burnings… they all reside back there – in the rearview. It’s a twilight zone mirror – the further we travel the racism stays fixed, close, right off the rear bumper.

Feel The Fire takes a look at here and now and compares it to there and then. Can you tell the difference? What do your eyes see?
