Academics and media tell minorities: You’ll never succeed because of racism

How liberals keep minorities down (for their own benefit.)

[Texas Eagle]

But that’s exactly what we do.

What do you mean, "we", white woman?

[max americana]

What’s he talking about? I’m a minority white dude in L.A. and I’m doing fine s/

[2ndDivisionVet]

One million dollars, tax free, a first-class, one-way ticket to Africa or the non-US country of your choice and you surrender your citizenship & passport when you hit the ground. Deal?

[jsanders2001]

I’m guessing the mothers of Usher, Shaqille O’Neal, Mariah Carey and thousands of other successful blacks didn’t tell them that line of bullcrap...

[Eddie01]

Alex, I’ll take what a Plantation Boss would say for a thousand.

[Texas Eagle]

A) I think Naomi is a dude-ette

B) That's right. I'd forgotten that whites are minorities in CA.

[jughandle]

If the left has their way they’ll be stuck on the democrat plantation for life.

[MtnClimber]

The left needs a permanant, dependant underclass to stay in power. You can see their actions to do this if you pay any attention at all.

[CodeToad]

This is correct. As long as “minorities” continue to buy into the racism of the Democrap Plantation, they will always be held down and back.

[NonValueAdded]

Make that “by use of the race card” and they might be on to something.

[Texas Eagle]

Isn't it interesting how black politicians boast about their hardscrabble upbringing that they were able to overcome but they don't think other blacks are capable of doing the same?

Perhaps "interesting" is not the right word. Perhaps "pathetic" is.

[Texas Eagle]

Make that “by use of the race card” and they might be on to something.

Juan Williams (of all people) refers to it as "pushing the race button". I find that metaphor more precise.

That's what 'RATS do; push people's buttons.

Whether it be preventing military veterans from visiting open air displays during a government "shutdown" or denying legitimate organizations tax exempt status for political reasons, they like to push people's buttons.

[WilliamofCarmichael]

Well I was all set to point to the BLS statistics below to say there's the problem -- complete your education even if it takes extra years as it did for me to earn a bachelor's degree.

But then I saw the real problem. We damn racist actually are able to control the minds of black utes. Without even knowing that or how we are doing it! Amazing. I guess there is no hope for black utes until, as Ophra Winfrey said, white people should just die.

Or, on the other hand, do they believe “There are some subjects in which I could never do well” and “I sometimes feel that there is nothing I can do to improve my situation”?

So these stats are useless for black utes victims of white racist mind control.

Below is the "Participation rate" in each of the four educational attainments. I think that over 25 age is the default.Showing same month in each of the years Labor Force Participation Rate - 25 yrs. & over in order of education attainment:

1. Less than a High School diploma
2. High School Graduate but No College
3. Some College or Associate Degree
4. Bachelor's degree and higher

Liberal elites would be out of power tomorrow if blacks weren’t kept broken. White liberal elites need the status quo...

[Norm Lenhart]

Just imagine a minority becoming rich and/or successful in Hollywierd. In professional sports. In academia. In business. In life...

What kind of blithering idiot expects that to happen? Next they’ll tell us a mixed race guy can be a two term president...Fools. Not in this racist country.

[Excellence]

The school tracked grades and retention rates, and found a clear correlation between higher locus of control attitudes and successful academic performance

True for young students, also.

[Steve_Seattle]

We have a so-called black president, and Asians are beginning to dominate our universities. Nuff said about opportunity; it’s a fact.

[TBP]

The left needs a permanent and ever-expanding underclass.
