Charity Blinds Us


Charity Blinds Us

John Perkins


For many ... strategies for involvement in the community are based on a volunteer or charity mentality. Our ... concept of charity is one of the main stumbling blocks to real community development. This is because ... charity can blind people to reality and substitute cheap action for expensive action. And when I say this to my white brothers and sisters they get very uncomfortable. But charity blinds us and keeps us from seeing that our whole system works methodically against the development of certain people--economically, educationally, spiritually and socially.
