I am an American, Are You? New Version
By Everett Beal
Last edited: Tuesday, July 04, 2006
Posted: Monday, September 24, 2001

Do I have to be identified as a Scot American, my wife as a French American and you are an African American? I don't think so? Let's talk about it.
Since I asked this question and had a ton of answers,I have been witness to
many changes in our society.

I am pleased with all the responses I received and really was hesitant to delete them.But time marches on, so here we go.

Yes,we all fall under one catagory.
Character, compassion,and personalities are the makup of an American, not the color of their skin.

As I share in my new book Fatal Addiction, there can be an infiltration of terrorists crossing our borders with some other race and disguised as one of them.We cannot be too careful or cautious.

Hopefully we will never see another "911". However, I did show you how this can happen in my latest book.

Southern Winds has been very successful and I shall never forget that it was my beginning when I passed from a writer to a published author.It does make a difference.

So now you have two books, one nonfiction where I lived and breathed every word and Fatal Addiction is fiction partially based on true happenings.

Since I am a pharmacist I would guess I
have been a witness to 90 per cent
of this book.Much of it breaks my heart to share with you.But it is a must that I should open the eyes of America.

One book compliments the other and both are going like a brush fire at my book signings.

Continuously I am blessed by readers for writing this book.All members of the medical profession have enjoyed it. One day I really hope you will see this works on the screen.

Many thanks for the look-see at your book. It is good, and articulates many
things that thousands, no millions of white folk feel. Best expression I have ever seen or heard. You have done something I've not read from any other fair-minded, non-bigoted southern white male. That is conveying and spelling out frustrations we feel and the current hate and hostility that is shown by so many of our black neighbors. It would be good for well-meaning folk of all ethnic groups to read the thoughts you convey in Southern Winds and consider them along with those
who differ, as well as those who preach hatred."

His hair was white as snow. His hair was wooley, his feet was bronze as it was burnt. Revelation chapter4 . And who am I the decedents of Kings and Queens. The same blood that flows through his veins flow through mind. King Solomon. My skin was black and my family used me as a door mat because I was black. King Solomon. And Joseph as he as me. Belgium Africa as the ancestors blood of my blood. I am the decedents of kings and queens. Don't cry for me. My head is wooley as my king. There is a higher place above this earth. And your decedents is the legacy which you hold the key. One love, One God, One peace

I believe what the author was touching on was the final uniting of one country under God. Race or where one came from decades or centuries ago is not what this country is based upon. America is known as the melting pot where people from all over come to ONE nation and blend in together and unite as one people. If you were born here it doesn't matter where you came from, if you stand on this country's principles you are an American. You can respect your original heritage at home if you wish, but this recent tragedy has brought all citizen's of this country together as ONE people. This is a very positive article.
For years this nation has sought to divide itself by race, this is not what America was suppose to be all about. Let's take Pride in being American is what this talented author has to say. I thank him for this positive observance.

"America" is a geographic location.
"American" is one living there, at that location.
But, what about a persons' birthright and
heritage?
A Jew is a Jew in any 'country' in the world.
As is a Chinese a Chinese anywhere he lives
or moves to in the world. They still retain
their identity and heritage, birthright.
Like so, a Japanese, Irishman, Italian, and
as for me: I'm a Serb! I'm Serbian no matter
where I live, and I've lived in more countries in the world that if I "adopted"
the GEOGRAPHIC TITLE of those lands, my gosh!
What would I end up being? A mongrel?
No. No matter where I live or was born, I
am a SERB [and proud of it]!!
