Re: Light Skin Versus Dark

Based on the fact that many seem to find it incomprehensible as to why one should be chosen as a leader based on merit, I find it necessary to present three very valid examples:
(1) PREGNANCY: Regardless of how well informed any male is on pregnancy, he cannot speak with authority on what females go through.
No male is fit or qualified to lead any movement to improve the situation during pregnancy.(2) MATERIAL WEALTH: No poor person can speak with authority on what it is like to be wealthy. No matter how well informed they are they cannot speak with authority on living with it.
(3) GENDER ABUSES: No male could experience what it is like to be abused as a woman. No male can lead any WOMAN movement that addresses gender abuses.
I suspect that is why JAH speaks to so many different people, as no one person can be the sole authority on all aspects dealing on earth.
