You can’t have a culture that opts for Ebonics, says that correcting students’ grammar is “racist”(Florida), and has a low percentage of two-parent homes (so that the young join gangs
to find the missing family),
and expect that culture to produce a number of college graduates equivalent to that from, say, a proto-typical Asian culture, which stresses family and education.
So where’s the surprise?
It has nothing to do with racism, and fighting “racism” won’t fix the problem.
It has to do with fixing the culture; and in that, the minorities have been the architects of their own failures.
The left will tell you that all the cultural problems are the _results_ of racism. That’s completely bogus, of course. Most “discrimination” and “racism” that blacks experience is DUE TO their culture, not the CAUSE OF their culture.
