Although the President has shied away from race matters in the past,

He's the president and can do whatever he wants.

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?

young people of color who have been disproportionately slammed by poverty, lack of opportunity, and unfair prison sentences their own poor choices.

ok then, fixed that so now it's truthful!

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.

Obama To Launch ‘My Brother’s Keeper’ Initiative For Young Men Of Color

[Red in Blue PA]

Good luck in getting them to sign up. Whenever I do volunteer fundraisers, blacks are almost non-existent.

Outstanding examples of progress will be given the “Mark of Cain.” /sarc

Obama has done absolutely NOTHING to help the middle class in this country. This article starts with a lie and stays with that course...

This has to be satire,or Jay Lenos last monologue

“I’m reaching out to some of America’s leading foundations and corporations on a new initiative to help more young men of color facing especially tough odds stay on track and reach their full potential,” said the President during the address. A White House official told the Washington Post that, with the help of community and business leaders, the initiative will zero in “on key moments in the lives of these young men where interventions have been shown to have the greatest impact — things like making sure children arrive at school ready to learn and reducing negative interactions with the criminal justice system.” There is also word that the administration will investigate programs currently in place that have shown good results in helping young men of color improve.

This is nothing more than throwing money at black leaders who have been critical to shut them up and at donors as a kickback. The only "brothers" that are going to be "kept" in this program are going to be those administering the program and getting all the cash.

... gotta have a program. Can’t live without a program.

Why is he concentrating on divisive policies just now? Perhaps the fact that Hispanics support is rapidly eroding even with the immigration push. His positive support with that group is down to 53% with only 14% strongly supporting and 38% opposition. It’s not just whites that can’t stand the stench coming from this administration. Plus, these numbers are from Gallup who trends left.

How un Christian of him. Don’t other races deserve the same?

These offenders had accumulated 4.1 million arrest charges before their most recent imprisonment and another 744,000 charges within 3 years of release.

These offenders had accumulated 4.1 million arrest charges before their most recent imprisonment and another 744,000 charges within 3 years of release.
Released prisoners with the highest rearrest rates were robbers (70.2%), burglars (74.0%), larcenists (74.6%), motor vehicle thieves (78.8%), those in prison for possessing or selling stolen property (77.4%), and those in prison for possessing, using, or selling illegal weapons (70.2%).

Word of caution, crime is not counted correctly. More of our governments fuzzy math tricks. It is Hierarchical Counted, only the most serious crime is counted if there were actually 4 crimes committed at the time. Kidnap, rape, rob then kill a person, only the murder counts. Rest flushed down the toilet.

More Marxism should fix that!

Based on statistics, it should be called “My Brother’s Murderer”.

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.

Obama does understand that he has been President for the past 5 years, right? He does understand that the Democrats have controlled the Senate, right? So by claiming the above he is admitting that both he and the Democrats have failed for 5 years.......

[TheConservativeParty]

Mr.O, you racist slut...

[Vaduz]

Disproportionately slammed by poverty, lack of opportunity, and unfair prison sentences.
He must be ready to issue some new race cards because the old ones are void.

Unfair prison sentence my a$$

Isn’t his brother’s keeper considered a warden?
