Things are different now, before, an education was valued by almost everybody. Now, too many don't value knowing how to read or write and too many parents are into themselves and their dope.

Just because a kid has bad parents doesn't mean the kid should miss out on at least learning how to read and write.

We also have the ghetto attitude that is against people getting an education, as if an education were only a white thing. That will have to be countered in a different manner.

The ills you decry are caused by government forcing people to "learn".

Black slaves learned despite all that stood in their way including those things you mentioned with the added aspect of real, pernicious racism.

Drop government/force and you'd still get educated people. They'd really want it though and the rest would know enough to work at a skill.
