Mayor Martin J. Walsh has launched an initiative this month targeting the citys black and Latino boys and men, a population at risk for joblessness, poverty, and a host of health disparities, according to several studies.
Building on the lead of President Obama earlier this year, the mayor is introducing Bostons version of My Brothers Keeper, a network meant to bridge the gap between men of color and their potential achievements.
There are a lot of young black and Latino men that we have here in our city that need this initiative, Walsh said in an interview. This can be helpful in changing their lives.

Also, is “boys of color” acceptable but “colored boys” is racist? I am not sure of the changing Libspeak.
Cause we whities keep our boots on their necks, don'cha know.
Why do worse sinners need more help... explain that one to me Einstein.
The problem is in the WRONG kind of help.
They’d steal our boots except they are workboots and would have no use to them (duck’n & runn’n!)
What makes him think they will take the same initiative that’s been available for everyone else, when they continually keep rejecting it because they are bitter, and have some bone to hash with the rest of the world because of their bitterness?
Is this not an exercise in futility?...like all the other things this nation seems to be going along with?
“(duckn & runnn!)”
HAHAHA...AND trying to hold their pants up at the same time.
“I say rednecks come in every color, and redneck is what a humble, God-grateful society would tend to look like.”
You know....I have to agree with you as to how a humble, and God-grateful society would look like. However, a true ‘redneck’ isn’t someone from the South. It was someone who worked in the coal mines of W. Virginia, that wore a red bandana/handkerchief as a symbol of their intent to ‘unionize’. It’s called the “Battle of Blair Mountain”.
All paid for by taxes on Whites, of course.
“Thank God that my white skin makes me immune from those awful things.”
And THIS is exactly why non-whites hate whites. Whites don’t seem to be immune from “stupidity”, it seems.
“Are suggesting that non-whites are incapable of understanding parody humor and sarcasm, or that its best to pretend that idiotic victimology isn’t idiotic victimology?”
Nope. Just saying it’s a stupid thing to say. Especially when whites have been the cause for so much pain, and disparity among non-white people. It seems more like the whites who are incapable of “understanding” the plea of those who the whites oppress. That’s all I’m saying.
The coincident monicker arose in two contexts, one being the miners who had unionized to demand safer and saner mining practices, and the other being the common southern agricultural workers whose necks would be burned red in the outdoor sun.
How about actually reading before knee jerking before the end.
If you have the world but are unsaved, you have an eternal seat reserved in the smoking section.
You mean more worldly, more earthly?
God is the most original, unique entity going. By a factor of, well, infinity.
In other words did you think God gave you brains in order to call them private and go pleasure yourself?
What a load.
I haven’t been the source of anyone’s racial problems, and neither have “whites”. Some white people have been a problem, just as with any other racial group. Would you say that the Chinese and Koreans were treated better by the Japanese than the white’s treated them? How about the last 50 years of black-on-white crime statistics? Do you tell blacks that they are idiots if they don’t accept guilt by pigment association?
How about you stop defining me, and subscribing societal guilt to me, based on my skin color.

Well, you actually defined “yourself” with your comment. The one where you said....
Thank God that my white skin makes me immune from those awful things.
Do you really believe that? Especially when we have a current leader who is doing nothing put stirring the shit, and making it stink even more than it already does in this world?
And well...I’m not interested in who treated the Chicoms, or the Koreans “better”, or by ‘who’. Nor do I dismiss any of the black-on-white crimes that you mention, either. Blacks don’t have the ‘pigment’ issues many whites do. Blacks know their black, AND have to endure being disparaged against, for it. A COLOR. One of which YOU think will keep you immune from awful things. Really?
Anyway, considering the standard that seems to still be alive and well among countless whites toward blacks, and even other darker-skinned ethnic groups, we could probably expect another 50 years of being hated by other cultures who are not as white as the paper many whites use to wipe their behinds....IF there were that much time left for the world.
