There are plenty of blacks who are successful, and achieve their accomplishments through ability and hard work. The problem is that many black leaders are enablers, still spouting the rhetoric of slavery, irresponsibility and dependence. Besides that, it's not in their culture's mindset to work with outside authority.

Yesterday, a black youth attempting to rob a house got shot dead by the black owner. It was in a neighborhood known to be safe. Has it occurred to the JesseJackson and AlSharpton types that their defending Trayvon just might have taught criminally-tempted black youth that those kinds of behaviors should be accepted by victims?

America.

Among other places, but America is exemplary.

"Black" people who get off their asses, get out of the ghetto, and do something productive for a living are generally successful. Sort of like everybody else in America.

There have been lots of successful blacks in American history. Look it up.
