[Secret Agent Man]

you know it’s intereting that she nver took the time to answer her own questions about her culture. why is it that she can speak english yet most blacks don’t seem able to? why is it that most blacks don’t like to read? why is it that studying and getting good grades is regarded by most blacksas “being white”? why is it that black on black crime is enormously out of control? but the only crimes blacks ever seem to get worked up about is when it is, or spun to be, white on black crime? why is it that black on white crime is far more prevalent than white on black crime but that never gets the same coverage or outrage by blacks, or politicians, or the race-baiters? why is it that the norm in the black community is out of wedlock births, no dad around, and the woman having kids from multiple men, none of whom are around?

why not ask those tough questions.

“Why not ask those questions?”

Because then she might have to confront the fact that a lot of the fault lies within the community. Although that could be a good story..she doesn’t feel it will fit the current narrative.

I’m hoping she is just young and searching for Utopia. When she finds out there is no such thing...she is smart enough, hopefully, to do some good. (I’m in my optimistic mood tonight,)

"why not ask those tough questions."

She asked them, but didn't answer them. That's why I called her "confused" in an earlier post. She seemed torn between two or three cultures, and lashed out at the white one even though that is the only one - despite its flaws - that really gave her a chance. It seems that at a critical point in her life she has just given up. Maybe T & T is where she'll be happiest - at least she did not get sucked into the morass of self-proclaimed "gangsta' culture.

Why?

Because very few blacks in the US really want an honest discussion on race.
