Surely you jest. No black liberals had a thing to do with the demise not only of the education system, but all of "black america?"

The truth is usually a tough thing to accept, so I understand if this is flagged. It would be a cowardly thing to do, but I understand it. Some people just ignore unpleasant truths. However, if you think ignoring the problem, or trying to censor the truth, will help our black children improve, you're dreaming. This is important, so I'm happy to repost - indefinitely if necessary. I find it interesting that NO ONE has had the intellect to refute anything in the essay. They can only attempt to censor it, as if doing so somehow makes it invalid. Weak minds, weak minds.

Johnson’s war on poverty and Affirmative Action are both results from the 60’s, failed policies that nobody has reversed for decades now. This is how the large populations of inner city blacks were grown.
The takeaway message from this is: they’re hopeless and we really shouldn’t even make an effort to help them.
BOOKMARK
That statement I have found to be true. Particularily as far as mexicans are concerned. The reasons are twofold:1. Mexicans, unlike Whites stand up to them. They are not afraid of them. They refuse to allw themselves to be bullied. They refuse, unlike Whites to grovel at their feet. 2. They protect their women from them.
I attended an 70% black, 20% hispanic, and 10% white high school in Richmond, Ca. in the early 1970s and about the only thing that doesn’t match is the lack of rap — which hadn’t been invented then.
Everything else? Bang on.
I joined the Navy at the earliest age possible, 17 (with my mother’s consent) to get out of that environment. It saved my life, I’m sure. Low income white families lived in a constant state of fear. My family escaped a few years after I joined up. I’ve never been back to that area, and never plan to go back.
Where I live it’s about 60% Mexicans and little over 4% black. Word is the Mexicans run them off.
Incredible!!!
The real problem is American (Democrat Plantation) black culture. Black schools in the parts of Africa in which I have lived and worked are disciplined, the students polite and respectful and eager to learn.
Perhaps one major reason for this is that their parents usually had to come up with school fees and the money to purchase school uniforms. I do not recall ever seeing a school where the students did not wear uniforms. This included schools where the students and their parents often wore goatskins or less outside of school.
I was once treated by a black African doctor in Nairobi. He was a Kenyan but had been living & working in London, doing kidney transplants. I commented on his graciousness in leaving all that to work in a clinic in Nairobi. He responded that it was harder on his wife, and especially his children. They had been born in England and were essentially English schoolchildren, but with dark skin.
We were both doing “humanitarian” work and talked about that for awhile. Finally I said, “When I get totally fed up with the bureaucracy, the tribal fighting and the abysmal state of public utilities, I can always go home, having done my nobles oblige thing. You, however, have worked your way up and out of here, yet you gave up the prestige and affluence of doing some of the most skilled surgical work on earth.”
I was not pandering; this man truly amazed me. He replied, “My mother is illiterate. She worked very hard as a cleaning lady to earn enough to pay my school fees through primary school. I came back because I owe it to her and her sacrifices to pay back a little to my people.”
It is very unfortunate that “Africa-American students” are not more like true African students. My children grew up in the tribe. We returned home on furlough and they began attending a majority black school in a Southern state. My son was the only white boy in his class.
One day after he had told my wife about an incident at school, she asked him, “Don’t they respect you?”
“No ma’am, They don’t respect me, they don’t respect the teacher, they don’t respect each other. Someone needs to put them on a plane and send them to African where they can learn some manners.”
He was 10 years old at the time, without a racist bone in his body. (In college, he was made an honorary member of the African students association. Real African students, not “African-American” students.
Most, if not all, of my African friends living in the US have feelings of disgust or even contempt for African-American attitudes. Especially when the Africa-Americans complain about “poverty”.
The problem is not race, but culture. Liberals, not slavery, segregation or racism, are responsible for the creation and continuation of this septic situation.
bingo.
The truth will set us free...
Unless and until we have a discussion revolving around the truth, we will continue this nonsense...
BTTT
For later.

African students outscore USA blacks in USA schools, with English as their 2nd language.
LBJ was right, he’s got them voting Dem for 50 years already.
I had a similar experience in Augusta, GA.
How long before a homeschooling advocate takes the wrong message away from this?
