Their cultural prototypes is getting them murdered at an alarming rate. Somewhere along the line they need to say, ok, this isn't working out for us, we need to change. I believe that is what Cosby is what is trying to get across. Stop blaming the white man for the black mans problems.
True,but very few are getting the message.
Example.I spent the afternoon subbing at one our more notorious high schools yesterday.No violence or threats of any kind.Nobody got shot or overdosed.Yet the whole atmosphere at the school was anti-learning.Kids wandering in and out of rooms.Kids playing music on the computer,playing cards,wrestling each other.No attempt a serious work.
I did call security and they made an obligatory attempt to get the students in line since they completely ignored my instructions.After the officer left it was back to nonsense as usual.
Not all these kids are defiant or bad apples.Many of them are very nice and friendly.
Yet they haven’t the slightest CLUE of how the world outside the ghetto works and no one seems to want to wake them up to future shock.
And,BTW,Any black parent who can afford it will not send their kid to this place.So what happens is you have no middle class kids exerting their positive influence.Its like Tupac said:
In the ghetto its the blind leading the blind
A world of woe with no peace of mind
