France’s Troubles: Learning from US
|
|
I know that there are some people who are celebrating France’s recent
troubles with delicious glee. I guess I can understand how they feel,
given France’s ongoing hypocrisy concerning the Iraq War [hmmm…whose
hand is in that oil-for-food cookie jar?] and the all too common and
world renowned snooty attitude displayed by many Francophiles toward
outsiders. Time for you to eat some humble pie, France. Your troubles
are upon you but they can be resolved. Guess what? You have to look at
America’s example for your solution. I am not smiling…okay, maybe just
a bit.
So, there you have it. France is in a pickle and they aren’t quite sure
why. I have three Latin words for the French to consider:
E Pluribus, Unum
Translated in English it means this: Out of many, one. In France,
immigrants remain outsiders always while in America we assimilate new
folks. One or two generations after moving to France, many Muslim young
people [born in France] feel as if they are on the outskirts of French
society. They dress differently, talk differently, and they live in
enclaves apart from the native French people. In short, they have no
real future. Yes, their religion is different but that shouldn’t matter
given France’s and the whole of Europe’s embrace of secularism and the
eschewing of all things Christian. Hmmm, perhaps that is part of the problem too.
Anyway, I am not saying we in America are perfect given our history of
civil rights. Still, fifty years removed from Rosa Park’s defiant and
brave act and forty years after many marches on Washington, DC [as well
as on capitols across our fair land] we here in America have learned
our lesson.
I believe it is time for the French to take a chapter from the pages of
our American history books in order for them to get through this
difficult time. If they do not, additional unrest can be expected. Let
not arrogance rule the day; this is a time for the people of France to
stand up and demand that her leaders respond accordingly.
