Michael, very powerful. Truth telling at its finest. The reality presented breaks my heart. A continued thanks for laying out the facts and data, whether convenient or inconvenient. I don't always agree with you, but at least you're saying it. I attended all black schools until age 15 when the schools in my part of Virginia were desegregated in 1964. My parents' greatest concern was "Those white teachers won't care about our black kids." I wound up having a handful of really good white teachers who cared, but most weren't built for the new reality they were in. They were just participants in the larger system and trying to make it. The library was abundant, and the facilities and resources were top notch, but I missed the consistent caring of all the black teachers that I had from elementary school through to the ninth grade. Although with your hard-hitting truths, you may not get a consistent gig with the MSM, keep telling your truths. We need them.
"If you're black, you were born in jail, in the North as well as the South. Stop talking about the South. Long as you south of the Canadian border, you're south." Malcolm X
@carolynforge8586 Please stop furthering the illusion of inclusion that is promoted in Canada. Malcolm X (who I love and respect) was unknowingly incorrect then, and by repeating it today, you're unknowingly incorrect now. We have the same issues here in Canada. Our children are targeted here by the education system. The school-to-prison pipeline operates here. The equipment, books, state of the school buildings, etc. in schools where our children are in the majority are of marked lesser quality and/or quantity than those of schools where any other racial group predominates here. Quiet as it's kept, Canada enslaved Afrikans, too; in fact, "the true north strong and free" country started enslaving earlier than the U.S. did. Both countries are founded on the fantasy-based ideology of white supremacy and the resulting corollary of a fantasy-based ideology of black inferiority. Both are settler countries on stolen First Nations' lands and both developed out of their identical ideologies societies woven through and dependent on an overall system of racism. They are close-knit brothers who hang tight together. Where you find one you will find the other, officially or unofficially.
@@xinavaneify Malcolm X was talking about the US. We are hardly concerned about your issues in Canada. Don't comment if you don't understand his quote. We know what he meant.
@@carolynforge8586 I know Malcolm X as a pan-Afrikanist even before he broke with the NOI, and since I espouse the same view I understand that statement of his (and the subsequent variations of it he offered from a global perspective) as having a wider application. I am sorry for poking into your U.S.-centric bubble. It's reminded me that the "ugly American narcissism" so regularly recognized among wypipo is also applicable to Black folks. There's a very real possibility that Black folks from the U.S. may need to flee for their lives, again, and seek entry to Canada, again, for safety. You shouldn't be one of them, of course, but for others I sincerely hope the majority of Black folks here do not take on the nasty attitude you've displayed, but rather remain ready to agitate for Canada to be a refuge for U.S. Blacks. Again.
One of the reasons why desegregation did a disservice to the Black community. We had our own before disaggregation. Black teachers, Black, owned stores, Black owned theaters, and everything else. Yt folks like to do things that look fair, and seem fair, and sound fair, but are not fair and are completely unequal. But we keep falling for it.
why is it that south east asians, Indians, Koreans, Japanese, Jamaicans, Bahamaians, even Africans all seem to do well in the society with these "not fair" things. If every day you go through life blaming other people for your troubles, you might be the source of your troubles. Ya'll can succeed once you realize the only one holding you down is your own black myths chaining you to bs but letting grifters prosper like Al Sharpton and Jesse Jackson. They snake oil salesman but they tell you want you want to hear. Be honest in your communities, build each other up, create businesses and banks and excel at education. Notice how all the well to do blacks ain't about that thug life. Raise them up as icons instead of making martyrs out of scumbags who would put a gun to their baby mama's pregrant belly. Only then will you be free.
Genuine question, maybe someone can answer this for me… why is it that immigrants from China and Vietnam as well as Jewish immigrants are statistically doing better than African Americans? Further, why are RECENT immigrants from West Africa statistically more successful than African Americans who have ancestors that have long been in the USA? By more successful I am referring to household income levels, incarceration rate, college and high school graduation rates, household wealth, etc.
I have $10/mth to help fund predominantly Black schools nationwide Michael. Get it together. Let's stop talking about and do something. I also have time to give as needed.
What do you mean! The United Negro College Fund still exists. You can even ask your employer to give. I've even given on Amazon (even though I hate Amazon) thru Amazon Smile.

Great reference video, thanks
Home-school is a 100% choice. The children will truly receive Black History facts in detail. They will learn at an excellerated rate.
The education problem is not based on money. It’s based on discipline, or rather the lack thereof.

@andreabrown4541 oh thanks. I thought he was talking about elementary, grade and high-schools in predominantly Black neighborhoods. Silly me.
Funding won't change a thing, nature and nurture are inescapable facts that most people refuse to accept.
