      My black friends are the same way. They get called "white" for having an education and knowing a trade.
      It's as if some view intelligence and productivity as something that isn't an option for all races.
      My black friends have no interest in being victims either. They have integrity and morals

      I’m 54, and have no patience for this stuff. And I’m a Black man. The bad ones, make it easy: send them to Afghanistan on a one way trip. If they want to play with guns, go over to Ukraine and shoot. They will take you. Not all, but the ones that refuse to listen and change their ways.

    I went to middle school with all black kids. It was more like a mini prison than a school. Fighting everyday, beating up the teachers, smoking weed in the bathrooms, breaking vending machines, acting bad in class was celebrated, lockers being broken into, people getting jumped in between classes just for fun. One time a kid opened the classroom door and threw an unopened can of coke at the teacher and ran off. I will never allow my kids to experience that BS.

      Most black Americans are in complete denial of the truth. BM make up just 6% of the US population. Yet out of that 6% . Just 1% or 2% out of the 6% of BM , are in fact committing nearly half the crimes in the US . That's mind blowing when you really think about it.

      1) If anything, America has a violence problem. 2) You are not the totality of the "black experience", for blacks are not a monolith. 3) Anecdotally, I live in a middleclass diverse community, and we live in relative peace. That is my experience and would imagine is a common experience for the 40 million black Americans in America, outside of perhaps those in poverty-stricken areas. I don't know what widespread situations people are seeing outside of impoverished communities, criminals engaging or media propaganda.

    I used to have a wicked anger problem. In retrospect, I realize it was my environment. I was a shut-in and wallowing in my miseries (i.e.- playing victim). It was the small things that turned huge- I started hiking, exploring the woods, rockhounding, wildlife spotting. I got a bird feeder to watch and listen the birds. After a while, no joke, I got better. I wasn't so mad anymore!!! I started feeling grateful.
    My point is, get out there y'all! Nature heals. Nature, my church, gave me faith. Give these kids a patch of forest to be stewards to. Let them keep it tidy and teach them how to do trail maintenance. Give them trees, lakes, fresh air and birds...then watch them grow. ❤️

Both me and my sister are very nervous people because of the unstable environment that we grew up in, we are both quick to anger though my temper tends to be more explosive and aggressive, I just don't like myself most of the time I don't know if that stems from how I was raised or not but I assume that it does.

How about holding those responsible who allow this to go on by hiding criminals with "no snitching"? How about stop having a criminal history? It is a fact that blacks are still being treated unfairly when it comes to housing - low appraisals, etc. but not being able to buy a house does not cause mass retail theft, and certainly not violent crime.

      That is one of many ways the state has historically disrupted the development of a people. Which was deemed illegal.

    As a young grown black man getting close to being in my early 20s (currently 18, bout to turn 19 in April 22) myself, it’s depressing how bad our culture has been. At my school, so many black kids (guys and girls) are smoking weed (strong weed), acting so insecure, ghetto, and negative. Even some of my family members like my uncle (just smokes) and aunt (smokes and drinks). They abuse it sometimes as well. Makes them act crazy towards me sometimes. My grandmother lashes out at me for no reason sometimes, even if I was being nice to her. Pretty sure she has IED (Intermittent Explosive Disorder) It’s like a psychotic person having a manic episode, going psycho on another person unexpectedly. I had two guys I knew, that smoked weed, and hanging with the wrong people. They both shot each other, and one was killed (just had his funeral, he was 17 yrs old), and the other guy’s on the loose from the police. Both young black men too in their teens. I’ll say it again: as a young black man myself, I do my extreme best to not hang with these young kids who think they’re all that. IDC if they’ve stayed out of trouble. Stay away from negative people, guys! I’m out. PEACE ☮️☮️☮️☮️

Do you see why this logic is problematic? You can't argue that no one is alive from slavery (despite Jim Crow being 50 years ago) to take accountability and then turn around and expect the "Black" descendants of those affected by those very same actions to do so. Do you see the hypocrisy? "Black" people haven't been passing all the racist legislation for the past century. Yet, we're to blame? FOH with that nonsense...

There is no family structure left in too many black households, and negative peers and gangs have taken their place. If one is not willing and able to raise and support a child with two parents, then don't have one. Most of the blame lies with black men, who plant their seed but are not willing to do the work to grow a responsible person.

    I grew up in the hood in NYC and have lived down here in Miami for 35 years and never, NEVER HAVE THINGS BEEN LIKE NOW! I remember Things were crazy back in the Cocaine/ Crack 80’s-90’s and murder and crime was out of control. (Thanks for reminding me Oodie Ju Bro - yeah man things was crazy, I stayed in the Grove.)But this mindset the youth have now of disrespect and lawlessness is crazy. It all started with the “urban music” festivals. I believe that non college kids, and criminal elements have taken advantage of what was set up for good. Things are out of hand.

    I agree to a point with the woman at the end about the military. I was a young kid back in the 80s and early 90s growing up in NJ which was the stolen car capital of the US at the time. I made the decision after high school to go into the Army. I'm glad I did, it opened my eyes to the world and all the opportunities out there. I got to see places I never would have such as Germany, parts of the US like Texas (Ft. Hood) California (NTC, Camp Roberts), and the middle east (Gulf War 90-91). When I left the Army, I knew sitting around doing nothing like some of my friends wasn't for me. I went to school got a job, got married, and raised 3 college educated kids, whereas I probably would've been a "baby daddy" I'm 54 now and I've got old friends from back in my NJ days that I know that went to prison, got shot or beaten within an inch of their life, strung out on drugs, or at our age and are nothing but a wasted life. Anyway, I think these young men like I was at one time, would benefit from military service. It's an eye-opener and you leave the service with benefits like college assistance, VA benefits, and other stuff. I live in and own a house outside of DC that I got thru the VA due to my service. I am a federal worker in DC and when I got hired, I got veteran's preference when going thru the hiring process.

      The argument that low income is the main cause or only cause for murder or violent crime goes up in smoke, when you compare it to the crime rates of poor whites in this country and poor Asians in other countries. As well even several other black countries have lower rates of murder rates than blacks in America. While poverty can contribute to crime, crime can contribute to poverty.

I'd been shot at four times by all black males by the age of 14 years old and I wasn't a gangbanger. An adult black man stuck a knife in my stomach at 14 trying to rob my in a Boys Market parking lot. At 13, I also had to pull a knife on an adult black man that wanted to lay hands on my 10 year old little brother. I'd say, as a 57 year old black man, there's been a constant and persistent problem with violence among blacks in Los Angeles. Can't speak for anywhere else, but blacks in LA have been violent since I was a wee lad.

    Yes, overwhelming Yes! There is a problem. When I was a kid I too was one of those problems. I am lucky to live to be in my 40s, others I grew up with weren't so lucky. Bottom line, it starts at home. If your child isn't taught self respect, how do you expect them to respect anyone else. There are far too many african american families that are fragmented and lost to what family really means. As cliche as it may sound, you cannot build a structure on a faulty foundation. Period. The parents are just as much at fault. I can speak from ground zero. I grew up in a family of people who had children when they were not prepared. Though they are survivors, it was a really rough run for most in my family. From the Glovers to the Cunninghams and beyond. We gotta do better.

Too many black women have an unhealthy obsession with those kind of black men. The black man up at 4 or 5 in the morning who is about something constructive with intellect, morality and integrity, he gets rejected by black women. If you keep on procreating with bums, losers, and jailbirds, most likely you're gonna create a generation of bums, losers, and jailbirds. This is how the black woman has played a major role in participating in the destruction of the so called black community. The sad thing about it is, she can't keep it to just 1 man. She's gotta have multiple baby daddy's, all of them bums, losers, and jailbirds. Other groups of women don't want their men to be gangsta.

      ​@@thewanderingmind3327You don't nessessarry have to be a big strong role figure either. look at Jewish fathers, they are not exactly big nor physically strong, but they have a wealth of knowledge and wisdom to pass down to their children. Many successful Jewish folk came from parents who had virtually nothing on arriving in America. But the one thing most of them had was a skill to sew clothes, to fix clocks watches, to sell wares in the markets. Etc. And they never wasted a penny on frivolous clothes , fancy cars etc. No , every cent went either back in to the business or to finace their children's college , university fees and books. No self respecting Jew would ever allow vile garbage like hip hop in to his home. I am a Scottish Catholic BTW.

    It's so important to have these conversations and it gives me hope and strength for my black brothers and sisters to yall finally starting to have these conversations and take accountability. THIS is how you save your people from the oppressive mindset that plagues you in this century. Oust the evil rappers that promote violence, drugs, degrade women. It's not all about the church, that is important too but you have to pull the rotten roots to save the tree. Save your people!!! ❤💪

    Starts at home with love. Having real discussions about it as a community. Not making up b.s excuses when we see nonsense in the community. And lastly, and sadly, when folks do the crime, we can't go crazy and get upset when these folks have to do the time.

      Starts at home? It started with the majority of mothers ingesting the bs that children did not need fathers. Folks can deny it all that they want, but the last couple of generations were raised by what parent? Yeah, women. Mothers failed their children.
      Notice how in this video, they claimed that things were prosperous during a certain time in black culture and that things should go back to the way they were, but then claims that young black adults should go to the military lol. No one wants will openly admit that kids should have been raised under the hands of men, and not women.

      Yes it can, not right away of course, but over time. Good old fashioned home training where parents used to be in their kids business is what's needed. Also, kids having chores and earning allowances is another way to help. They'll always be those who just refuse to do right, but good moral guidance and discipline has been proven to work.

    I’m honestly surprised this entire news channel isn’t getting canceled for this video. I’m white but I grew up in Northern VA, lots of different people there. Most of my black friends avoid the residential areas of DC because they feel the same way. At this point, idk what the answer is. It seems like there are black people who made it out and are making a better life for their family, and the rest are just avoided at all costs. Starts in the home, 75% of black kids grow up without a father. And that number is going up for white kids as well

    Perspective from an Asian woman. It does start at home. As adults who surround these young adults, we need to be intentional and aware. My cousin was 15 when he had the trinity of our gmas death, his parents divorcing, and he was moved to a whole new city and school. I told his parents, "Get him some therapy." They didn't listen. Within a few months, he went from being an A+ student to failing. Because I was paying attention to him and intentionally spending time with him, I caught him and was able to stop him from being initiated into a street gang. I try my best to stay in his life because he's taken a long time to recover. One of his saving grace comes from the most consistent and stable person in his life, his moms boyfriend, who is an upstanding 60+ year old black man. We don't have to be their parents to care, we just need to start paying attention and caring. I also believe that we need to get these young folks into more constructive environments. Youth engagement and leadership programs.
