We trained over 200 Mentors to support kids in high school. One 16 year old girl asked her Mentor who the man in her family photo was. She said it was her husband. The girl said, “Is he like my mom’s boy friend?” The Mentor said, “No, he and I were married 30 years ago and he is the father of all these children. We will be with each other until we die.” The girl replied, “I have never heard of that in my life.”
The issue is Black people must OWN. Those who OWN HAVE CONTROL. . Owners have control over RESOURCES AND OPPORTUNITY. Black people must GET IN THE DRIVERS SEAT and control access to opportunities and resources. Entrepreneuralship must become THECULTURE. The culture of TAKING CONTROL AND NOT LEAVING THINGS TO OTHERS. American society is rampant NEPOTISM, CRONISM, AND TRIBALISM. Its the reason why people are fighting to get into certain schools and networks. I looked it up and Harvard has the same books as the local community college in the area. So why don't people just go there. They want to be apart of that TRIBE that has access to the most resources and opportunity because MERIT AND HARDWORK ISN'T ENOUGH. I have raised my children to value ENTREPNEURSHIP AND OWNERSHIP. They aren''t raised to go to college or university. All the knowledge they need is in books they can learn on their own without attending any school.
Oh my goodness - first speaker nails all the stops. He really put a lot of light into what is wrong w/ black people in the majority. Black conservatives are more rare than rooster teeth.
Thomas Sowell has commented on perverse incentives of public assistance, which includes financial disincentive to work (benefit reduction) and the ultimate objective to ultimately eliminate the need for public assistance, i.e. welfare systems putting themselves out of business by eliminating the need. What these systems seem best at is self-preservation. Clearly, changes to incentives, both of recipients and the system itself, are mandatory if we actually want change (we as in We, the People).
It's amazing how united African Americans are. Asian Americans are not. Asia is so vast, from Turkey to Japan, with lots of differences. Even though South Asians comprise more than half of Asians admitted to Harvard, South Asians and East Asians are not even as united as African Americans are.

@@Wolff13 That's true...as a non-black growing up in a more dominant black neighborhood. "Thanking God" seems to be more unique to blacks in general. Maybe I should travel a bit more to south to see if southerners have similar values as well.
@@Malignus68 lol...I thought his reply was funny as if those characteristics were only unique to blackness. lol...I am going to ignorantly assume those "characteristics" are what has indirectly cause "single mother" epidemic and/or that those amazing "characteristics as mention" are what has cause many "blacks to perform" poorly in education and that it was "RACISM" at every thing that cause them to be unable to succeed or that the 20+ shootings that take place on "father's day" of all days in Chicago or that 1000+ takes place amongst blacks themselves. If these are the characteristics that produces such individuals...I don't want any of these values instill in my family nor community.
I was a social worker and generally the entire industry is based around victimization. I still am turning my life around but I empowered myself when when I realized that my thoughts manifest into attitudes and feelings which manifest into experiences. This ultimately is what the Bible teaches..... I'm not against work, but the truth is you don't need to work to manifest an abundance life and an abundant income...
True. The industry thrives off black American poverty. Too many friends in Congress cringe at the thought of helping low income low wealth families to actually escape their economic disadvantage
@@steve19811 I view families and their progress or challenges in the US starting from what's happened to them since arriving at the US. For some life has been harder than others. Some have worked harder than others. Some made investment earlier vs later than others. Some came here with wealth others without. Mindset often is a result of these factors. Looking at the factors differently perhaps is a coping mechanism but is generally unsustainable across populations until we deal with the underlying contributing factors to development of demographic and sociological trends. For sure, coping mechanisms shouldn't ignore the reality of culturally unique experiences. For sure, the system is morally inapt in that it persistently aims to deny the humanity of black American families. They worked harder, earlier than most, investing more of their labor and lives blood and bones time and talents into building the greatest superpower country on Earth. The system doesn't honor these unique sacrifices. It's no surprise why there's such calamity in their communities. They're having to contend with the reality of not yet being regarded as a full human by a morally inapt broader society.
What's interesting is that the opposing viewpoint of victimhood and Anti-American rhetoric talks will, on many of their UA-cam videos, close the comments section off, which I find highly disingenuous.

For example, if you have a platform like Joe Rogan (who I generally enjoy) it still matters who you bring on.

Since the number of positions above the average is limited, the very notion of upward mobility is misleading. Adding to that the multiple conservative PRATTs in this video and it's clear to see this organisation is more interested in pushing an agenda, than actually researching the causes and solutions of socio-economic issues.
