Your Fredrick Douglas quote is just spot on:

I have had but one answer from the beginning. Do nothing with us! Your doing with us has already played the mischief with us. Do nothing with us!

The blacks have a family problem and with it a family discipline problem. That is something only they can solve and many have. But they have a long way to go. What would help: Kill the Affirmative Action Programs and subsidies and stop preaching the idea of black victimhood.

Yes...I just finished reading “Created Equal: Clarence Thomas In His Own Words”.

People like her need to read his book. But she and they won’t, because they see him as a “sell out” and an “Uncle Tom” (Their words, not mine)

Their distaste for Justice Thomas is redolent of the same mindset that compels Leftists to idolize the scummy Socialist piece of crap W.E.B. DuBois instead of someone like Booker T. Washington.

In my opinion, the “family problem” you refer to is what I refer to as “Black Culture”, and it is a poisonous and corrosive culture.

It is the culture eschewed by men like Thomas Sowell and Clarence Thomas.

It is the culture that glorifies violence, promotes the idiotic “cult of respect” (which often results in violence) disparages those who embrace scholastics and learning, demeans women, and results in 77% of black children being born out of wedlock and growing up without a father in the house.

That is the most destructive culture in this country right now, bar none, especially when you consider that 40% of all rapes, murders, armed assaults, and felonious battery in the United States are committed by probably 2% of the population at most.

I work with plenty of hard-working, capable, black men and women, but they are fighting an uphill battle if they are contending with the wider, destructive Black Culture described above.
