Add the same advice the white community needs - get back to church!
Damn good advice. Whites should follow it too.
Well, if any of us said these things, we would be called racist.
A black man can make these comments, and nobody can say he is a racist.
I wish this message would gain traction in the black community.
It’s now 50 years since the passage of the Civil Rights Act of 1964. How many of the serious problems of black America are due to racism or due to blacks not having equal rights under the law?
And how many of the problems of the black community are self inflicted, due to poor life choices made by people in that community?????
.... and for God’s sake, cultivate some impulse control.
1) Pull up your pants.
2) Stop using the n-word
3) Stop littering.
4) Finish school.
5) Don't have babies out of wedlock.
6) Stop holding your brothers back.
Anyone who holds you back in life is not your friend. They are the crabs in the bucket trying to keep someone else from getting ahead in life. "What? Are you trying to be white?" And this doesn't just happen in the black community, it happens among white kids too "what, are you come kind of a nerd? You think you are a 'prep'?"
They don't want to see you move on and do better in life.
America is/was a land of opportunity.
Black parents who instruct their children that no white person will ever accept them, respect them, etc. propagate racism and a defeatist attitude.
Didn’t Bill Cosby say the same thing 20 years ago?
CNN ANCHOR DON LEMON: 'I UNDERSTAND' ST. LOUIS RIOTING, LOOTING
A random act of intelligence
6. Speak English
I’ll add one. Stop being so damned loud and offensive in public.
The other day I was leaving Kroger, on my way to my car. I passed a parked car filled with black people. They had that bassed-out rap cranked up to high volume...when I walked by, I actually felt pain in my ears. Despite the volume, I could still hear the young black woman standing outside the car, yelling “MFer” this and “MFer that.”
Stop littering???? That’s what will turn them around????? Is this a joke?
Whoa ... just finished watching that... CNN’s Don Lemon doesn’t pull any punches. I’m impressed. (FOX needs to hire him away from CNN)
O’Reilly and Lemon both need to understand that out of wedlock births are happening in ever increasing numbers in the white community too...
Well, his career is over.
Mr. Lemon’s advice isn’t that much different that Newt Gingrich’s advice to Youths not being able to obtain the bounty of America in the Mid-90’s. The only other thing Newt noted from my memory was to finish High School. Of course not getting into drugs or other things that lead to Felony Convictions are also a positive so you can get a job.
