President Barack Obama (pictured) has been aggressively pushing an agenda that strengthens the core of the nation via education, job creation, and supporting middle class families. Now the administration will turn its aim to improve the lives of young men of color via an initiative titled My Brothers Keeper.
Although the President has shied away from race matters in the past, there has been an undeniable shift in focus from the White House regarding the plight of young people of color who have been disproportionately slammed by poverty, lack of opportunity, and unfair prison sentences.
According to a Washington Post report, the President will officially announce the launch of this new plan this Thursday, and it comes at a critical point in his second term. President Obama has endured heavy criticism from Black leaders and other minority groups for not tailoring his policies toward their needs.

this is very “New Jack City”.
(for those in rio linda, it is a line in the movie)
Uh..... what particular color does one have to be ?
I thought Holder was out saying that prisons were brother keepers. I’m confused.
Besides, the Crips and Bloods already got that concession.
Didn’t O’Reilly challenge Obama to do something about young black men fathering children, but not staying around to raise and support their family during his Superbowl interview?
“And yet he does nothing for his brother in Kenya who lives in a hut.”
It’s gotten so bad that people in Kenya now are saying Obama’s 100 percent American.
He knows full well what 'brother's keeper' refers to, but the devil is in the details.
Don’t worry, you and I and all other White Folks will be paying for it.
After all it’s “White Folks” greed that leaves the world in need.
What do we want?
Melanin justice!
When do we want it?
Now!
Maybe a new college BA program. Black Male Studies. Hire thousands of teachers, raise tuition for everyone by 50% so black males can learn about themselves.
Oh yeah, and with the college degree required for jobs these days, they can take away jobs from skilled white middle 50’s applicants who lost their jobs due to other “studies” programs.
“”Isnt it racist to have a program for young men of color?””
This was one of the subjects that O’Reilly touched on in his interview - why hadn’t he put emphasis on problems in the black families? Guess it hadn’t dawned on him before that but now he’ll get busy. Of course, his answer to BOR was he’d already been doing that!!!
Sounds like that's what that pervert Missouri football player majored in.

You are correct. I hadn’t seen your post when I posted...
Shame the baby-daddy thugs. Push for it to be a societal no-no to abandon your kids.
Rap used to push this in the 90’s.
Good luck in getting them to sign up. Whenever I do volunteer fundraisers, blacks are almost non-existent.
