50% drop out rate, high out of wedlock birthrates, high imprisonment rates, leading cause of death being killed by another black man . . . etc. etc.
The past is a crutch for these SELF-IMPOSED problems . . . yet the culture is not to fix the problem, it is glorified in the music . . .
forgive me if I don't find this argument compelling . . .
They are allowed to continually play this card, the past sins card, and use it as an excuse to do nothing about the current SELF-PROPAGATED sins . . . I know of no way to stick a thermometer up America's ass and determine what level of biggotry now exist. I only know what I see. Blacks control the town in which I work . . . do things get better or worse? Who's fault is that? Is white America keeping them down? They control their own destiny as much as my poor cotton-picking, "white trash" family did 50 years ago . . . It is time to stop pointing at the rest of us as racist pigs while backslapping OJ and Al Sharpton. The racism street has cars going in both directions today.
