How about discipling your kids to act like civilized human beings and throwing a father in the picture to boot?
Mature, responsible black men are what’s going to be needed to fix black culture’s problems.
I’ve become friends with some of the guys at my employers warehouse. All black men.
One is sort of the elder statesman of the warehouse. I’ve seen him pull younger ones aside and give them some fatherly wisdom. As an elder statesman should do.
The other day I found out that a couple of them have set up a neighborhood basketball day once a week at a church. Four black men pay for the rental and don’t tell the others.
He told me their goal is to show and teach young black men how to be men. The other day one got all mad because another fouled him. He didn’t like being dissed.
My friend pulled him aside and first told him in no uncertain terms the bodily damage that would occur if he tried anything.
Then he calmed the kid down and asked him just what he would do after killing the guy for fouling him. He told him about the police cameras and all the Ring cameras in every direction. How he has absolutely no chance at freedom after doing violence and that’s not how men are to act.
The whole conversation gave me new respect for my friend. Black men don’t need excuses. They need mentors.
She throws in “physician” like I’m supposed to be instantly attentive and respectful. I have less respect for Drs than ever after the Covid fiasco
Yeah, if there’s a burden that her kids carry due to the color of their skin, it wasn’t placed there in the Antebellum South. I consider Karmelo Anthony sufficient reason to be circumspect of young black men. To say nothing of all of the black on white attackers whose namws blur into the recent past.
Interesting she is a doctor and admits she went to a school that was hard and demanding. However, she thinks her children should just be given things they don’t earn. That’s what’s wrong with so much of Black culture. Even when Blacks have seen in their own lives the value of expectations, they don’t want them for other Blacks. Her son’s will grow up feeling entitled and put upon and amount to nothing unless mom has enough pull as a doctor and advocate to get them stuff they don’t deserve. And even then, she won’t be happy with the results or understand why.
Yah, more BS from an entitled TWOT. Immigrants from “WestIndies” are compeltely different. One culture assimilates and emphasizes growth and adulthood — and intact families. The other arrives with demands and see systematic racism everywhere.
The victim’s “perspective” is irrelevant. Show me the facts.
The sting of truth spot on.
That cannot be a real name.
