Dirty little secret that the radical types do not want known - when persons who are Americans of African descent assume and apply the mental discipline exhibited by successful white people, their degree of success in life rises to about the same level as the white people they emulate. This is not being “Uncle Tom” or “Aunt Jemima”, it is pursuing the American Dream, which was and is open to everybody who put in the time, discipline, effort and yes, the love, to achieve these realizations of potential.

Yet, oddly enough, there is a sharp prejudice within the African American community against any of their members who begins acting “too white”. There is a concerted effort to drag the overachiever back down into the same level as the others.
