Historically, slavery & racism would not have been such a giant problem without the practice of setting up colonies as agents of theocracies The notion of "chosen people" is the first sentence of the former South African Constitution, in force as late as 1994 where racism & apartheid was quite similar to 1963 Mississippi. As Bill Moore wrote, British colonialists retreated from their violent empires while French fought to control Vietnamese Catholics over Vietnamese Buddhists. Just as Cardinal Spellman dictated to President Kennedy & Johnson. Violence, whether by a redneck in Alabama or Napalm on a villager, is still violence rooted in bigotry "forgiven" by theocrats. Superiority, whether burning gel from aircraft or a gunshot to an innocent head, is not superiority at all, but bigotry would have the perpetrator think so. When the world's rulers seek to help "brothers" not do violence to them, then Bill Moore will not have died in vain. Bill Moore marched for more than a principle of 1787 & 1791, he marched for justice face to face with one who could order an end to Jim Crow. World wealth disparity now is far worse than 45 years ago. Perhaps there are fewer battlefield victims but there are far more marketplace victims. Colonialism remains the problem & Bill Moore was marching with his eyes on the prize of peace. Bill Moore appealed for an end to colonialism.
