The entire problem, IMO, lies in the way blacks self-define. To be ‘black’ is NOT to speak proper English, to be ‘black’ is to identify with the lowest possible behavior. If non-black society demanded this of black people, it would be a return to the thinking of slave days. Yet the predominant black culture chooses this willingly!
How many times have we seen black mothers, dressed in expensive clothes and shoes, sporting elaborate hairdos and outrageous manicures, get out of an Escalade PULLING their children, CURSING them like animals while talking on the phone? From infancy the children of women like this are treated as annoyances, property to be endured. “Get ya F’in a** movin’, I ain’t got time for your F’in s**t!” This to a two year old! So they raise children brutally and produce brutal adolescents who are dead inside-and those children reproduce early and continue the process.
The problem is in the MENTALITY that is pervasive in black culture and it starts with the individual and their priorities. As long as it continues to be ‘bling’ and possessions, with no emotional connection above that of a greedy 5 year old, the deterioration of social standards cannot stop.
I speak from experience. The biracial children in my family face this daily-accusations of acting too white. I have seen the sharp divide between black and white imposed by the black culture. It does not raise up a child, it pulls him down to the lowest common denominator. Conformity to a black standard is mandatory- or else you are ‘too white’. I translate that as ‘too good’ to be black at all-and hearing that from a black person while they complain about discrimination and slavery is more than ironic. They have self-enslaved themselves, mentally, to a sub-human standard that their ancestors fought to overcome. Slaves in Escalades, I call them; and one cannot value someone who places no value on themselves.

All one need do is to look at their ‘roots’ in the Africa of today. General chaos, genocide, fratricide, drugs, etc.
I remember a segment on “60 minutes” maybe twenty years ago. A black lady who was an executive of a bank was interviewed because she was so successful. She blamed the pronunciation of ‘ask’ as ‘aks’ by African-Americans because in Africa they did not have the ‘as’ pronunciation in the language(?). She said that the trait had hung on for over 300 years.
I laughed at that because my grandparents came here from Germany yet I do not speak with a German accent. I so wanted to ask her if 300 years is enough time to lose an accent.
