Because their culture means nothing, apparently.<br /><br />when will white people finally stop patting themselves on the shoulder for "helping poor people". If it wasn't for you they wouldn't need support to begin with.<br />The only help white people should offer is stop exploiting third world countries instead of going there and evangelize them, so the world fits into their tiny minds a bit better.<br /><br />If you want to support people, support them by giving them the possibility and freedom to live according to their own beliefs and traditions. Support them them by empowering them and by listening, not by "saving" them.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6683857811192325633.post-26115649207634625592012-11-03T14:40:19.630-04:002012-11-03T14:40:19.630-04:00First post I read is about Anne and the second you...First post I read is about Anne and the second you're talking about Jesus.

We just got back from Haiti last week & are brokenhearted about being back & missing loving on so many children. I know this book will continue to stir all of that up, which is good. can't wait to read it!Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05219540027889998358noreply@blogger.com
