Their only comfort was Sunday when they praised their lord and rested.

Taking charity from the government would not have been an option. Where is that pride of our ancestors? Over 45 million collecting food from the government? That is absolutely horrible. People used to chop wood or do anything for a meal. Now the government gives it to you and puts it on the deficit. Really, is this going to be our attitude forever? Is there no pride?
This is pretty much what Star Parker is saying. People are stripped of their pride and dignity because the left perpetuates the need to be at the teat of the government. She is a brilliant black woman who believed the liberal lies. She has broken free and is working to teach others how to be free also. It is difficult tho, just like when a crab tries to escape the bucket and the other crabs keep pulling it back down in.
