You don’t need wealth to have self-respect.
You can tell the difference between the neighborhoods of poor people that respect themselves and their community, and poor people that have no respect for themselves or who they are in society.
The blessing of having an ethnicity instead of a “color” is that you are able to respect yourself whether rich or poor.
This is why I identify as a Disciple of Christ AND as an Israelite, because I want my children to have self-respect for where they descend from naturally in history… not the self-hatred and mammon-based identity that comes from the American narrative and the European colonizer narrative.
