    Im 71 years old now and remember this period of time Dr. Carr is referencing very well. I was a participant as a student who grew up in segregated schools and also the son of a black elementary school teacher who after integration was one of the "separated" Dr. Carr refers to. My mom was a fighter and fierce advocate for her students, and I'll never forget her lamentation of concern on integration when both of us were moving to so called white schools. "These white teachers won't care for our children". She eventually got advanced degrees and retired as a high school guidance counselor. I was lucky in my integration experience as I did find a 2-3 white teachers who gave me their best in high school and was grateful for that. It mattered. My parents and community had also given me good ground to fight through those who didn't.

    I am 52 yo. Raised in a small Louisiana town on the Mississippi River. My teachers was kind to me an told or showed that I will not fail. When Louisiana forced a lot of black children in to special education that did not belong there. It was black teachers an some white allies that went on strike to force the state to corrected this racist policy. After the strike the state started finding ways to push those teachers out.

    I knew there was a problem with Black Society's thinking when it came to the questions of us moving and thinking culturally and collectively; however could not articulate my thoughts. Thank ya'll for the precise clarity I needed to express with others these most critical understandings of how our thoughts, moves and ideas must be geared toward the bigger questions of culture and collectivism.

    I really like what Dr Carr quoted from Du Bois, keeping your eyes on the stars and remaining intellectually curious rather than always looking for the return on investment. I think young students to be encourage in or soon after to travel especially to other countries with a significant minority or majority black population. Seeing the similarities but also the differences in culture as a contrast could help them appreciate and value their own more.

    Many people say DuBois was a Pan Africanist but he was really a Marxist.
    Hence, he was pro-preserving culture.
    That brings me right back to asking what is Black Culture?
    Remember there is a difference between Africans, Black Africans, and White Africans.
    Yet Black and white Africans are the same with exception to White being non aboriginal.

    This question of culture, is always focused on a new African or Afrocentric culture vs. the traditional Christian/Black Church/Civil rights/integrationists culture, but what really is the problem, IMO is subcultures among Black people. The subculture particularly of adolescent/youth getting high and going for bad culture, which disproportionately negatively impacts our communities.
    Pop/adolescent/youth culture, growing out of the 'Industrial Revolution', and slowly became the dominate influence on American culture. As with everything else with us, here in the U.S., anything that negatively impacts the country, negatively impacts us, even more. Black cultures that are rooted in basic human values, don't have that much of a problem, if any at all, of integrating into American society, or at least the ideal that is promoted. It is this particular subculture, that causes most of the problems that exist. The values and actions of this subculture, must be called out for what they are and do. Just because they are often monetarily profitable, does not make them socially profitable. In fact, it is obviously not socially profitable. The history of the deterioration of our communities parallels the spread of this culture. It has been normalized and in some ways, it is now the face of Black-American culture, in the eyes and minds, of the rest of the world.
    Dr. Carr talks about the tenet or pillars of African consciousness - the question of what we mean to each other. Related to that or said another way is - how we see each other. The phrase "unapologetically Black" it seems in my mind, expresses an attitude of 'my people -right or wrong not on steroids, but on crack'. When we celebrate, glorify, idolize, and emulate criminality and anti-social behavior, this is the message it sends, to me. In fact it goes beyond that. It reflects a change of consciousness. It is the antithesis of being conscious, aware, down for the cause, right on, real, woke, fact, 100 or any other expression of group consciousness and solidarity, we may have used over the decades.
    The question of what do we mean to each other/how we see ourselves and each other, is a question that is central to the proclamation to the world that, our lives matter. That anything matters to some degree should be obvious, so there is a deeper question involved - the question of how much do they matter, and to whom? Many of us refuse to address the contradiction that is raised, by the disproportionate rate at which we kill one another, while we are making this proclamation to the world. The few who do respond say us killing one another is nothing we should be concerned with. They say "it is not a thing", because no other people talk about killing each other. They say people will kill, and when they do, it is usually someone they live near. They simply consider it a crime of opportunity or equate it with random and more unpredictable crimes of passion, among people who know each other or are acquainted. They don't see any difference in our particular situation, position and condition in this society, and people of society in general. This is an instance where the question of how we view ourselves and our situation must be applied.
    Some of the same people who dismiss the seriousness of this behavior, also say, that for us to talk about the fact, that we kill each other, makes us look pathological, or at least in the eyes of certain other people. They place more value in how it is perceived by other people, than they do in how these acts directly impact Black people, especially the ones who lose their lives directly, as a result.
    One of our most prominent public intellectuals, has warned us of talking about this. In fact he is one of most frequent accusers of charging certain Black people with practicing "respectability politics". He applies this charge to anyone who talks about "Black on Black crime". He and others believe, anyone who raises this issue, only does so, to appear White people - to allay their idea of us being pathological - that they will somehow think better of us, and treat us better. Who, in this case, is worried more about what others think of us? Who is being defensive, to preserve less of a gain, and neglecting to be proactive, in a way, where there is an obvious need, and the potential for much gain, in the preservation of life?
    If Black people really value history, what is going on today with us, is likely as valuable to future generations as any other aspect of our entire history. The record must be accurate on this matters and questions of, what we mean to each other, how we view ourselves, etc.. At present and for future generation, we must always be clear on the choices we have to make, and we can not afford to let future generations miss out on the knowledge of, exactly what went on in this crucial period in our history. It may be instructional/helpful in them making decisions, and prevent them from making similar mistakes, in the future.
    The debate about the n-word can trickle way down toward the everyday people, if not reach a great many of them. This issue of how we once talked and sung about us heading for self destruction, and having anti-violence movements and slogans lead by Black/adolescent /young culture as well as Integrationist/Black Church/Civil Rights culture, and then took a 180 degree turn, without any discussion, debate, or acknowledgement of this change, must be in the historical record, not just for future generations, but for solving the real and substantial problem it is to all Black people today. That we did this is an indication of our dysfunction as a group. It is in my mind the most valuable lesson, for any serious attempt to recreate a new consciousness for a us as a people, or for any fraction of us who hope to forge forward, independent of the rest of Black people, and creating a new identify and being.

    Leave nothing up to assumptions so those who are less educated can learn and understand the purpose of Segregation.
