Who Is The Oppressor? Let's Talk About It (Response to YouTube Commentator)
We, black people hear the words "oppression" or "oppressors" and automatically think the white man, we think someone usually of another race, but that is not always the case. Your oppressor can be your own brother or sister in fact, the person whom you shared a bedroom, a roof, the most unsuspecting person at times.
While there is an oppression based on race, let us not overlook the many other images that oppression can look like: black on black crime, stealing from your own kind, hindering the bag of another because you disagree with them or their viewpoint, endeavoring to silence the voice of one who shares a different opinion or lifestyle than you.
Oppression is not always black and white.
Related Scriptures:
Job 15:20: The wicked man travaileth with pain all his days, Even the number of years that are laid up for the oppressor.
Jeremiah 22:3: This is what the LORD says: "Uphold justice and righteousness. Deliver from their oppressor those who have been robbed. Don't mistreat or do violence to the alien, the orphan, or the widow, or shed the blood of innocent people in this place.
Malachi 3:5: “Then I will draw near to you for judgment. I will be a swift witness against the sorcerers, against the adulterers, against those who swear falsely, against those who oppress the hired worker in his wages, the widow and the fatherless, against those who thrust aside the sojourner, and do not fear me, says the LORD of hosts.
