Here comes another black whiner blaming everything on whitey. The beginning was good and supportable. If you ask a black that is successful what his school life was like they will, most times, tell you it was hell. If they studied or made good grades they were an "oreo". They had no support from their peers. The only thing that would save them is a functional home life that revolved around a resident mother and father. This, of course, is sadly lacking in most black homes thanks in large part to the liberal welfare programs that this student with his sophomoric wisdom would advocate. The only evidence I would offer to counter his claims of the brilliant black culture that these evil white people are all conspiring to suppress is to ask him to contrast Euro-centric culture with that of african culture. The african aerospace program is not exactly the envy of the world, neither their semiconductor industry nor their great research centers for nanomolecular science. Africa cannot make any progress because they can't quit stealing each other blind and killing off the other tribe. But wait. Afro-centrists and whitey-consipiracy believers have an answer for that also. It is all the white slave owners fault. We came into africa and somehow poisoned their whole culture and their minds so that they are now inextricably locked into a cycle of genocide. (This beside the fact that all the slave owners and sellers on the african continent were black) Give me a break. As long as we have excusers like the boy geniuses on display here trying to advocate even more government programs, there will be no progress in the black community. The only progress will come when the black community decides within itself that enough is enough and pulls up by their own bootstraps. Then there will be built up some history that the black culture can point to with pride. Oh, my. Here comes another black whiner blaming everything on whitey. The beginning was good and supportable.
