      What’s sad is we were sooooooooo much closer in the 90’s. Everyone agreed on MLK’s message. And MLK was a Christian - so that is not the message being sent today.
      The message before was clearly to become a “color blind” society. There were clothing brands like Cross Colours and it was a message based in love.
      Something happened after 9/11 to the people here. It’s like everyone was traumatized and now all there is in the world is a constant message or fear and death. When you kick God out of society within 2 generations a new lower-g god replaces Him. And that leads to open pagan idol worship and all that comes with that in the dark.

Their answer to racism in the past is racism in the present. The answer to racism in the present is racism in the future.

    When he said Asian moms do not put up with their children committing crimes. It used to be the same with Black Americans. I remember back in the 1960s and early 1970s that if a black kid did something wrong, the police did not arrest them, they took them home. Why? Because the police knew that their parents would punish them much harder than the courts would ever do. Back then, if anyone did something wrong, let alone a black kid, it disgraced the entire family. Black American families would NOT allow their children to disgrace the family or the family name. God forbid that a grandparent lived in the home or nearby. If so, the poor black kid would not be able to sit for a good week. Now days, it seems that black families embrace bad behavior in their children.

      A teacher in Ontario Canada just leaked part of the new k to 6 "race matters" curriculum." Part of the cource is the concept of "Black Joy" . A feeling of pride joy and elation black people feel when standing up to authority and oppression . This may include crime. If white teachers are uncomfortable teaching this and other so called " facts" they must examine thier reasons for hidden bias and racism. In other words it's racist to expect black people to respect law and order. If it's here it's in the states too. Home school or a carefully chosen private school is getting to be the only way to get your kid to adulthood unindoctrinated by this ridiculous, devisive, race and identity ideology that ignores merit and glorifies victimhood. .

    I'm 40+ years old and I can't tell you how refreshing it is to hear and see a young black man like yourself speaking the honest truth. I can't even express how heartbreaking it is to watch the decimation of the black community with this oppression ideology. The fact that we (blacks) are okay with tests being dumbed down for our children and them graduating from high school with a 4th grade reading level is absolutely appalling. Not even mentioning the inability to do BASIC math. This is essentially creating a race of dependence - and once you become dependent on someone else for your most basic needs in life you've delivered yourself back into a form of slavery.

Rap for me originally was Rage against the Machine, Prodigy etc. Then I stopped listening because it was all about - what a Stud I am - PA-lease! 🙄 Now in the last few years, I've got into Tom MacDonald - Love him. Proper Protest Rap. Charlie Kirk & others are right. Resentment is created - on both sides. For those who have worked hard - no meritocratic appreciation & sometimes, for other groups, de facto discrimination although the nice word 'affirmation' is used. I'm fed up. I grew up in the so called 'colour-blind' decades, in that it was about equality & behaviour. I never used the N word, I don't think like that - Now, since 2020, it seemed over-night people viewed me as a White Supremacist' or Racist & this can be thrown at you if you like Black Music, Pull someone up about their behaviour or even just quickly fill up a water bottle. Thanks to a Middle-Eastern 'Gentleman' on the bus whose behaviour I was complaining about, with his following accusation of racism, I literally said 'I do not give a F**k about the amount of melanin in your skin, this is about manners!' That is absolutely true! - I care if you're being an idiot to me or not. I had two white teens try to correct me when I said 'excuse me Guys' ( one was a girl) But when I grew up - it was just a generic term. I told them that they don't get to tell me what gender to use. I used to be a classical liberal now I'm more Conservative as I've now seen what the so-called 'progressives' are doing to the West as exampled even by former religious friends.

In more than 18,600 of those cases, the victim was Black. Based on historical stats, 96% of those murderers were Black. And that is because of the lack of cooperation from the Black community. So when you adjust, some of those crime stats get even because all that is reported are arrests. Welcome to reality Jojo. Things are not what the left says they are.

A black guy he worked with would literally sit with his feet up on his desk doing nothing. Not until he decided to build a house in which he’d lunch in at work then go home and work on his house. He asked my husband, what did you do today. My husband said he worked his ass off. The guy said “yeah, I didn’t do a damn thing g and we both got paid the same”. They couldn’t fire him. Not even when he was caught building his house on the tax payers dime. He knew it. He could do whatever he wanted while everyone else had to do their jobs AND his. What a slap in the face. And there’s not a damn thing anyone can do about it.

      Yup. I took a supervisory position at work recently. My trainer drummed into my head that one of the most important parts of my job was to prevent people from sneaking in and signing out early. Until the day I called the black guy out. The trainer freaked out on me and me "oh HE is allowed to sign it early." When I asked why she could not or would not answer me. Just repeated over and over that HE is allowed.

    I appreciate you bringing up what many may not realise, will not speak of if they do.
    In 1990s the school I attended had 4 scholarships 2 for black cultures and 2 open school in athletics.
    Coach pulled me aside and said he was putting my name in for one of the scholarships. Following week he pulled me aside to say not to cry but that the school had said I would have to ask my parents to pay $2500 for training cause of being white and they wanted the scholarships to go to black kids.
    He said you and I know it’s wrong but he couldn’t convince them to change their minds and his hands were tied. All 4 of the scholarships went to only the black students.
    All I could say was sorry coach, I can’t ask my parents for money we haven’t got. It’s a shame as I stopped running that day and those in athletics know when I say there’s a feeling of flying like a bird, feeling free that I have never been able to get since that day.
    It didn’t matter who ran faster, who turned up for every chance at training sessions. I was so dedicated I had attended every training- before school, recess, lunch, after school etc I even had trained at home with ropes tied around my waist until I was running with four old car tires bouncing along behind me.
    I had gotten to the point I barely would’ve needed to reach arm in a bent position to touch the shoulder of another student who had 2 years professional training.
    I was never bitter at the other students training or scholarships, most were friends, I still get that crushed feeling at the memory of losing an opportunity because the school couldn’t see past me being white though after all these years.

    As a "mixed race" white woman and Choctaw Indian, I very much appreciate your intellect and not being afraid to say the truth. Yes atrocities have been done in the past especially to my people who were pushed off the land and forced onto reservations. There is not a person alive who has not been oppressed in some way at some time, especially women when black men could own property before women. But using what occurred in the past to stamp your foot and demand that everyone else coddle you and fix your problems, pull the race card and blame others for problems you could fix, is wrong regardless of what race you are. YOU have the power to fix or improve your life, whatever your circumstances. The problem is too many people have a sense of entitlement and expect everything to be handed to them on a silver platter, because it is easier to complain and blame other groups of people for the fact that they are where they are, than to put forth any effort to get into a better situation. That is the basis for the old saying of "Beggars can't be Choosers". If you expect anything and everything to be given to you, then don't complain about the crumbs you get. Get out there and make an effort and make a better life for yourself. That is exactly what I had to do working jobs and putting myself through school. Neither me nor any of my white friends had any "white privilege" at all while two of our wonderful black friends got full scholarships. I am happy for them, but don't you dare throw in my face that my success is white privledge. That is why I don't even list my Indian heritage or white heritage on any documents because it should not even be a factor. My merit is the only thing that should count.

      Not having the biological father in the home also correlates with poor academic success. Fathers also help kids move out into the society providing connections for jobs and make demands on the kid to perform well so as not to embarrass him. I overheard a black mother on the phone saying her teenage son had called his grandma a bi*ch so she “throwed him against the wall.” Then she called his *%*#@& daddy who came over apparently to throw him against the wall too. Somehow I don’t think this is a very effective child rearing strategy, but maybe better than nothing.

So much of our education system is shortchanging the students. The theme of the video he was commenting on was of black privilege. We as a society are shooting ourselves by not promoting people using merit as the determining factor.

      I was a high school teacher. One day, I noticed an envelope under a desk and found it belonged to one of the girl students. I know I was stepping outside my rights, but I read the letter. It was from the girl's father who was in jail. I almost cried as I read this man give his daughter wise and caring advice about her typical teenage girl problems. The next day, I handed the letter back to her, but to this day, I wish I had told her I had read the letter and that she had a dad who loved her and wanted her to be successful. I hope when he got out that they had a strong relationship.

    The problem with racism *was* that people in charge didn't hire people because they were a crtain race.
    The current problem with racism is that the people in charge *must* hire people because they are a certain race.
    If racism is to ever be eliminated, the race of an applicant *cannot matter in any way* ...neither positively, nor negatively. Hiring should only be based on merit and *no other metrics.* Want a better job?
    Do the work. Get the education.
    And that doesn't mean "get them into the programs"... it means they need to have the effort invested, the priorities nailed down that *earns* that place in the educational program they choose, so that when they graduate they can get the job in the field they desire because they are now *qualified* for it.
    No one has ever progressed through a handout.
    No one has ever gotten more done by doing half of the work for them.
    No one has ever learned more with less focus on grades.
    Affirmative action, by definition, is saying that "these races cannot do it on their own. They do not work hard enough, aren't smart enough, and don't deserve the respect of having achieved it without these huge assistance props. They just aren't good enough."
    And *that* is bullshit.
    Falls under the same kind of backwards thinking that has "strong independent women" wanting a man to pay for everything for them, so they don't have to.
    *People only succeed through doing it for themselves.* At anything.
    Give a man a fish, and he eats for a day. Teach a man to fish... yeah, you've heard this one before right?

The radical left can’t swallow that because then they would have to give reasons for why that happens other than racism and oppression by white people. There will never be a moment in history when we could openly admit it is the black community itself that fails and sucks and destroys itself. We’ll always have to pretend it’s white’s people fault.

I repeat, the bar does not need to be lowered because that implies we can't do it. When I was in university I did very well, and the only time I had any trouble was when covid first hit. Yeah, there were stressful times, but I got through it, and I started and ended my time in university on a very high note.

    Blaming others for the problems facing any particular community destroys any hope of a path forward to solving the problems. If it's not your fault that such-n-such, then you have no power to affect the change necessary to overcome that issue. Keeping a community powerless is keeping them dependent on "hero" politicians who promise "help" even if they never deliver it. They don't ever have to deliver, because that community is helpless either way. It's not so much a _culture_ as it is a _mindset_ that needs to be changed.

    You bring up a very good point. The very existence of affirmative action shapes people's perceptions of black students. With DEI quotas it probably does the same thing for other marginalized demographics. People won't look at a black student and be assured that they got there under their own merit, while some and possibly most do there will always be that doubt present. It probably feels bad for the students in question too. I can imagine them wondering 'did I get this spot because I did well, or did I get it because I'm black?'. If affirmative action did not exist, the student could have the certainty that they did well and got their deserved spot and there would be no resentment from others.

    I am a strong opponent of affirmative action. I've seen first hand the harm that it can do.
    Back in the 80's, I went to one of the best engineering schools in the country. Also there was a half-black, half-Puerto Rican student that became a friend of mine. He came from the NYC school system, and I later found out he was admitted through an affirmative action program because he checked off two minority demographics.
    I knew this student was having problems with calculus because several of my others friends told me they had tried to help him when he was having difficulty, but were unable to do so. I thought that I was decent calculus, so maybe I could describe the subject matter to him in a way he could understand. In very short order, I discovered why every else had failed to help him. The student didn't just have problems understanding calculus, but he also did not understand trigonometry, geometry, or even algebra. He really needed help with grade school math. It turned out his grade school and high school teachers just passed him along the system because they did not want to be seen holding a minority back.
    The result of this was the student failed out of college because he was completely incapable of competing with other students at the same level, and he eventually became a professional waiter. After thinking about this for a while, I realized that affirmative action actually harmed two students lives - the student I knew and another student who missed out being admitted to a top college.
    I believe in equal opportunity, but I also believe the system we have set up is actually hurting people in the long run more than it is helping them. I have no problem with providing added instruction to people in need of it, but I also believe that people should not be given a position unless they have the abilities to meet the requirements of that position.
