You are right on!!! Obama has put Black people in further decline on purpose. His goal is to undermine the USA and bring it down, first the economy, which he has already done...and, second the country itself. The clear handwriting of his hate for America is on the wall. Too bad, Americans can’t see it for what it is!!! We are sinking fast America!!! The cliff of no return is fastly approaching!!! The rest of the world laughs at how easily we are killing ourselves, our freedom, our liberty, our opportunity, our future!!!
I agreed with every word written.
I have been among these people, and truthfully the Essay is
right on the money
It doesn’t stop in school either, it goes on throughout their lives..
“I have been in parent-teacher conferences that broke my heart: the child pleading with his parents to take him out of school; the parents convinced their child’s fears are groundless.”
The parents are liberals. . .I guarantee it.
Maybe Barack Obama and Kathy Sebelius will be more successful in dealing with them than Margaret Sanger was.
What really hit me in this essay is that there are no differentiating groups within the black teen population... not like with whites: nerds, preppies, rockers, jocks, stoners...
Fifty years ago, in my youth, this was not the case in most mid-western cities.
Most schools with a majority percentage of black students had some tough accomplished black teachers. Additionally, the home life did not allow such decline.
What changed? The Great Society reshaped culture, taxes, welfare, schools, academics, crime prevention, and the family. This is the result in some areas.
Fred Reed said in all his years as a crime reporter in Chicago, in all the homes and apartments he went into, he never saw a single book in any black person’s home. Very sad.
I was moved reading this. Such a sad situation, and he explains it so candidly.
“We need more Democrats!” indeed. Was this really what civil rights leaders fought for? Was this really why Lincoln pitted brother against brother? For this? Such a shame.
I've seen bloody fights in the hallways, and I've broken up bloody fights in the hallways.
And I've taught the lowest level classes in the school. These were classes with many unmotivated and often disruptive students. Students that I could not reach no matter what.
So when it comes to the urban teaching experience, I defer to no one.
So let me tell you this. This “essay” is pure garbage.
For every black kid that was disruptive, I had many who were trying desperately to get an education under difficult circumstances.
There were black students who came after school for extra help. There were black students who gave up their lunch time for extra help.
And the same could be said for the white students. Some were disruptive, but many tried to go that extra mile.
Sure, urban schools have lots of problems. And the urban culture is a part of it.
But it's odd that the author of the “essay” has nothing to say about the better kids, black and white. Well, maybe not so odd if spreading hatred is your goal.
I do have one little quibble with the essay though.
“will help our black children improve”
They ain't MY children. I have never fathered a black child nor have I ever owned one. I am in no way responsible for their bad manners, illiteracy or uncivilized tribal behavior.
There is a level of conformity among blacks that whites would find hard to believe. They like one kind of music: rap. They will vote for one political party: Democrat. They dance one way, speak one way, are loud the same way, and fail their exams in the same way. Of course, there are exceptions but they are rare.
Whites are different. Some like country music, others heavy metal, some prefer pop, and still others, God forbid, enjoy rap music. They have different associations, groups, almost ideologies. There are jocks, nerds, preppies, and hunters. Blacks are all -- well -- black, and they are quick to let other blacks know when they deviate from the norm.
One might object that there are important group differences among blacks that a white man simply cannot detect. I have done my best to find them, but so far as I can tell, they dress the same, talk the same, think the same. Certainly, they form rival groups, but the groups are not different in any discernible way. There simply are no groups of blacks that are as distinctly different from each other as white "nerds," "hunters," or "Goths," for example.
This strikes me as true. One of those things I don't consciously notice, but it is true. It's not to say there are not black individuals whose taste varies from the norm, but when they exist, they just find the white group where they fit in, and drift in with them (if the white kids let him or her, and the black kids don't attack them for being traitors.)
Recommend this essay, it is brutally honest and frightening. I know why it is anonymous—
My 9th grade year was at a “black” high school. White kids and a handful of black kids went to class. The rest of the black kids hung out outside or in the hallways; about half the school. Blacks that went to class were Uncle toms.
WOW
A recognize a bit of my old high school in this. Not to this extreme as it was 20 years ago, and a far different world.
Even with the extremely negative influence of Gangsta rap at the time, there was still a pull of civility because the adults were from the Depression and WW2 generation, so things were never allowed to go this far down the gutter. You had knuckleheads flaunting ghetto culture, and we did have security guards mostly for just light stuff like being hall monitors, but it was still a time where a girl becoming pregnant was a huge deal (one did and she was taken out to go to an alternative school), or getting into a fight was a sign of being trash. Also, there was an actual stigma to being in a remedial class. It was, in hindsight, a far desirable place to have been than what the same school I attended had become.
Time for the two parent family among blacks. I’m starting to doubt this will ever happen with Lefties in power.
BTTT
What, never watched the Maury show?
Survival in a modern division of labor free society requires rationality and acquisition of knowledge. If blacks are unable or unwilling to follow reason and acquire knowledge, they are doomed to a future of poverty and parasitism.
