There are a lot of factors here to unpack. Black people started out as slaves in this country. We were not allowed to learn, not even how to read. That established a pattern. They made sure that even when we were allowed to receive education, our education was bottom of the barrel. Compare a public school in a black area to one in a white area. You will see what we are left with. There were some bright black men and women who rose from the ashes, even some great inventors but the numbers are low and the walls they had to climb were high.Then we move on to parenting. Piss poor parenting will create piss poor adults. Mix this in with an unfair disadvantage in society and a corrupt culture cultivated for us, not by us, and you will be left with people struggling for generations. The government knows this. The government came in and replaced the back father head for a monthly paycheck and for several generations, black women have relied on it to raise their children. Many didn't have any other options. They designed it that way.There are a lot of problems and there is no quick fix. This is why I always say to start where you can. Start in your own home first. Get your home in order. Then branch out to your local community. We have to uplift our own and restore a sense of community. If people want to wild out and do stupid ish, then they won't be included.
