A Question posed to you all:
Heidi: There is so much happening out in the world concerning the UFO phenomena, which includes
research, information and all sorts of data and statistics. With all that's out there and all the testimony that people have
been revealing about their encounters, I think we can all agree that this is something that is a wide spread phenomena.
So then, why is it that there are so few African Americans and minorities as a whole, speaking
up about their contact?
With myself being multiracial, I find it sometimes alienating that I'm pretty much one of the
only ones that speaks publicly about this sort of thing. There is no way I am absolutely the only one that has had contact
either, I've met a few now that claim some things may have happened to them.
But still, this is something that is primarily spoken of quietly, in comparison to the majority
of folk that speak on this matter.
The UFO phenomena is an issue that involves us all, and it should be shown that all kinds of
people are involved in this, wouldn't you agree? It has been the voice of those involved in this phenomena, that has kept
the interest of the public and researchers still searching.
-
Tell me what you all think about this lack of minority presence in the open on this topic and
how that might effect or discourage others, or doesn't it matter?
-
What do you think may be the reasons behind there being so few out there speaking up in the
first place?
Here I will mention a few quotes from a few different people as to why they think it is that
this is not a popular topic in the African American community:
-
"We hold closer to our church and religious values then most, when it comes to things like
that."
-
"It's just not something we get into."
-
"A brother's got enough to worry about, then to be looking up to the sky."
Send your comments or insights this way, we'll be looking forward to hearing your thoughts
on this.
- Heidi
