I went to a Catholic grade school that became mostly black by time I graduated. All the boys went to high school and several of them to the highly rated Catholic military school in town.

I am never surprised when I hear that a prominant older black person went to Catholic school, at least for grade school. Expectations were high for all kids in the class, at least back in the 40's, 50's and 60's.

Withou realizing it (IMHO), you hit on the crux of this and many of the economic problems of Americans today. It is a problem, that for some reason, neither Fed nor state leaders are willing to address. That problem is the 'underground economy'.
