No. They blame their failures on Whitey and that allows them to keep failing without accepting responsibility for the failures.
Culture, attitude and no self-responsibility are the problems. But blaming rasis crackas is a whole lot easier and profitable.
Democrats have been the bane of blacks’ existence since its inception, and the root — and cause — of all of its misery from start to present.
Yes, that paragon of justice led a pogrom to kill Jews.
The fact that Al Sharpton is held up as a civil rights leader tells me the black civil rights movement is bogus.
Unfortunately that is true.

It is surprising to me that someone can actually talk about cultural problems in black families.
I was a school teacher in East Flatbush at the time (interestingly enough, I taught at Tilden High School - the school Sharpton attended as an up and coming agitator - that’s how he was remembered by his teachers) and coming in from NJ, I would have to drive through Crown Heights on my way into and out of work. Fortunately for me, the Crown Heights riots happened during the summer and I didn’t need to pass through there.
Indeed however no more than a career criminal and druggie being made into the second coming of Jesus Christ.
Are blacks responsible for black problems?
Ditto on the assumptions made by W. Williams re: Floyd who was the author of his own demise in multiple ways that have been verified by autopsy. I regularly read Dr. Williams & find this blanket, unsupported statement to be outside his usual style.
You are dead on correct. WHY is GS not considered a terrorist just like Trotsky and any others and now I must include Gates et al.
I think the government has a very good idea where the money and other resources are coming from to encourage social destruction. GS is not the only one. The US has many communists now who are actively encouraging insurrection and are big influences on young and ignorant people.
What the author described in the article is normal black behavior. Just look at how they behave in any other country outside US
Racism is an over played card by the democrats and media they never play with a full deck.
If it’s true that American blacks are so anti-Semitic, why is that?
I, for one, defend the police treatment of George Floyd.
Why are you asking me? I’m not an American black.
No
They joined the Free S#it Army
I guess I should’ve put “all” in the “To:” section of my post. Sorry.
here’s my take on it
Racism definitely is one of the root causes of today’s African-American problems.
Note I said “African-American” - as in not recent immigrants from Africa or the Caribbean - they have a different culture and different problems.
The root cause of today’s African-American problems in my opinion are:
1. Culture - a culture that glorifies distinction from “whites” and incorrectly assumes education, erudition, learning etc as “acting white”
2. Single-mother families -> only 13% of blacks live in two-parent households. This instantly puts them at a disadvantage.
3. Poverty - cause by #1 and #2
4. Lower expectations - caused by #1 and #2
5. Black on black hate and crime - caused by 1,2,3 and 4
6. Causal racism - caused partially by all of the above and secondarily by non-blacks reaction to blacks acting out as above leading to prejudice (even if you are without prejudice, after some incidents you get wary at the very least) AND real racist idiots.
7. Legacy racism - due to the past, some people may look down on African-Americans and it gets worse if their initial prejudices get “justified” by the above points.
to solve the “black” problem is to stop calling it a “black problem” but a societal problem - blacks are not a separate “other” but just as American as anyone else
