Note the line mentioning race versus culture. This is not a race problem, but a cultural problem. The problem is the black-urban-gangsta sub-culture and cultural identity, not race or racial identity.
Our kids grew up in Africa. My son was the first white child our tribe had ever seen. When we returned to the USA, our kids were in a vastly majority black public school. Our 10 year old son was the only white boy in his class.
After an incident in which our 8 year old daughter was pushed down stairs (inadvertently) by two black girls shoving each other, my wife questioned our children about the environment.
Son, do they respect you?
No mam, they don’t respect me, they don’t respect the teacher and they don’t respect each other. Someone needs to put them on a plane back to Africa where they can learn manners. (All of his African friend were very well behaved)
Now, 25 years later, I read of an egg hunt which was cancelled in this very same town because these now grown up classmates of my children still do not respect each other or themselves.
Political correctness has done FAR more harm to the black community than segregation or the “n-word” ever did.
I had a good friend in college who had to take me aside to give me a talk. “Man, you are behaving like a conceited jerk!” I am so grateful that he was not politically correct and told me the truth.
Do we care enough about our black countrymen to openly tell them it is the culture & behaviors we object to, not the concentration of melanin in the epidermis?
True, but who are the primary practitioners of that culture? It's called "profiling," and it works for a reason.
