Blacks hurting Blacks

Rap & Hip Hop practitioners, damned if I’ll call them artists, use the foulest, most violent language in misogynistic and insulting ways towards women and condemn their country and law enforcement similarly. There is nothing wholesome or worthy about them or their message. They are merely laying more social land mines in the path of black youngster who already have tremendous disadvantages.

In the black community the ‘heroes’ you hear about are the athletes and assorted profane thugs like Ludacris, Dennis Rodman, Mike Tyson and charlatans for dollars such as Jesse Jackson and Al Sharpton. The real heroes you don’t hear much about are such thoughtful and influential people as Alan Keyes, Ward Connerly, Walter Williams, Thomas Sowell and Shelby Steele. Other real heroes are the black women who are doing a nearly impossible job of making up for the mess resulting from the irresponsible black male hip hop culture. Are we supposed to think blacks are only marginally smart? How about such eminent scientists as Neil deGrasse Tyson and S. James Gates, Jr. These two men are on the leading edge of American Physics. How about the many black males in the various media who wear neck ties and speak modern English very well, thank you! Only a negligible per cent of black youths can ever hope to be millionaire athletes or entertainers but they could achieve success in other walks of life if they were properly led and inspired. Sadly, they lack the leadership to show them the way while the good men cited above are marginalized by black-as-victim activists as deeply flawed for trying to live white while they are actually just being the best they can be and, as well, they are proving that the sky is the limit.
