"And so when people start to talk about systemic racism built into the system, what they're really doing is expanding the territory of 'entitlement,'" Steele said.
"[I]t's a corruption because the truth of the matter is, blacks have never been less oppressed than they are today. Opportunity is around every corner," he explained, adding that the activists in this case rarely make time for self-reflection.
Steele asked rhetorically whether those who feel oppressed or underprivileged have taken "some responsibility" and taking positive action like examining the education system in their neighborhoods or whether they are pursuing a tangible goal for their life.

We all need to pray for Shelby Steele’s protection.
The demonic horde will want blood for his statements of truth here.
“The truth is hate to those who hate the truth”.
Little did I know the boomers infected the entire public school system with the scam. It's never going to end.
How dare you ask blacks to take responsibility! Thats racist.
The Left will fight you tooth and nail to prevent any such thing from occurring in the black community.
Sadly for every Shelby Steele, there are a thousand frauds chirping daily in the MSM. For every person that Steele enlightens with his reason and insights, the fraudster propagandists reach and unfortunately influence ten others. A Democracy presupposes that a majority of the people can discern lies. Not sure that is true. The propagandist frauds currently have the advantage.
It's all about expanding the territory of entitlements.
It’s always and everywhere about the Gibs.
- Only liberal minorities can hold public office,
- Only liberal minorities can own companies or corporations,
- Conservatives of any stripe must pay "reparations",
- How much? We'll tell you when its enough.

I watched the show. Shelby Steele embodies greatness and it is a shame that his wisdom cannot permeate a corrupt major media. He has the wisdom to lift our black communities above politics into the good lives they could have if they could just realize that they do not have to live under the very political masters who have kept them down for so many years. I am curious to see whether they will again be voting for those same masters in 2020. If they do, they will forever be locked into victimhood. Mr. Steele is a great intellect.

If the black community cannot retain its “victim” status the golden goose dies.
If Blacks are waiting for what they call long term, systemic, racists to come up with plans to help them climb out of the hole that THEY, BLACKS, continue to dig deeper by playing the victim.... well good luck.
I don’t care and will NEVER kneel. Screw them. They NEVER did a thing for me.
School choice will help, it's critical
good points
Amazing how the msm Blacklists these mn
Let’s keep it up so white people continue to dominate sports, music (especially rap and hiphop), entertainment, movies, media, etc. and are the only ones to go to college, get advanced and professional degrees, work in government, obtain management and executive positions, and get elected to public office.
If there’s racism in our systems, it seems to be working out pretty darn well for non-caucasian races.
Notice they never tell you WHICH systems are racist?
Just a new buzzword to toss around.
The problem is that there is a sufficiently large minority who buy into this crap to destabilize everything else.
and when they do it's stupid, they focus on the Police who were responsible for 2-3% of Black killings and not the 90%+ committed by Blacks, so those Black lives do not matter.
CORERECT. I should have said - “The Blacks that are waiting”
