There's a song that was released in the late 60's which,although it wasn't a huge hit,is one of my very favorite songs of all time...for reasons that would take a long time to explain.

If you listen carefully to the lyrics there can be no doubt that today's "typical" minority child would benefit hugely....HUGELY...if the those communities were to universally recognize that this story is pivotal to the well being of their kids.

PIVOTAL!

The slaughterhouse is the Democrat political party. Blacks are voting for their own destruction.

Wrong.

These are six important qualities to develop, but ATTITUDE needs to be included. As long as black kids are taught that “ our kids coming out of school idolizing their great great grandmother’s rapist slave master,” they will never have what it takes to succeed.

Please stop teaching these kids hatred. Slavery was ended hundreds of years ago. Quit dragging it around, you don’t look very businesslike dragging that carcass.

Should I show up at business meetings with a GIANT POTATO in my fist? In commemoration of the potato famine, no doubt the Brits’ fault, and my poor downtrodden Irish forebears had to move off their lands, cross oceans in creaking ships with barely enough food to survive, with nothing waiting for them in a hostile new land where Irish Need Not Apply signs were everywhere. NOT FAIR.

IRISH LIVES MATTER, and all you British jerks can move the bleep over because ...well, because I SAID SO and I get to kill you if you get in my way.

Have a nice day.

“Black children must be educated by black people”

I thought that was settled back on May 17, 1954.

Brown Vs Board of Education.

His need for black children to study a specific type of reading or history limits them and will destroy their place in the world

My parents read to me early and often. I still love reading aloud with my adult daughter

My dad would tell us the history of the area we lived in. It was rich and deep and gave an authentic feel to the place. It taught me how to appreciate oral histories so when I heard the stories from my math teacher about how time in a POW camp in Manchuria during WWII, I paid great attention

Other than that the six things are good

"Have your child read a book a month and talk to you about it". A book a week is not too much to ask for.

they have to be positioned to do more formal writing to be able to communicate properly and not be stuck in America’s economic basement. True Dat.

Life is nothing but one big math problem, so problem-solving skills will come in handy as your child tries to navigate life. True Dat 2. Math B not White...

We need to make sure our kids learn about themselves before they start honoring anybody else. 'Frica doesn't have a great history. Some African-Americans = GREAT!

"Entrepreneurship training for black children should start from the day they learn how to say the words “Mama, can I have some money?” " Drug dealing is not a good business in the long run...

"The inability to think critically about the world around us is one of the most limiting factors" True for all.

A-As need to get with Western Culture before Islam overwhelms them...

Looks like this author is a little short in the critical thinking skills area. He only sees black.

Critical thinking skill turns you into a leader, not a follower. Black kids need to learn to carve their own paths, not follow the ones that white supremacy has put in front of them. A critical thinker is an intellectual leader, someone who can differentiate common sense from a popular lie. They aren’t going to learn this from the school system, because conformity is rewarded in most white supremacist systems.

There-in lies your problem. I refer you to any Asian in the USA, they learned early to follow the rules and excel at them. Now they are at the top of many organizations. See and learn. Oh and whites, you are losing to the Asians, wake up!

A lack of self-love is the greatest problem in the African American community,...

Maybe the problem is too much self-love.

Lots of self-esteem, no self-respect.

This guy wants us to think he really cares and has the intelligence to make this argument. Nothing could be further from the truth. It’s obvious he’s as deficient in thinking skills as those he purports to be leading to a better place.

- Reading: Advocating for reading only black authors in order to be “authentic” is ludicrous on its face. Nothing wrong with including black authors in a list of age-appropriate reading that advances clear-headed thinking and good morals. For that matter, the McGuffey Reader series from ages ago would be a great start, IMO.

- Writing: Here’s where his thinking really shows inconsistency because grammar is what separates those who can write clearly and those who cannot organize a cogent argument.

- Math: Yes, it is a problem-solving process that creates logic and follows a process. However, it is not the only approach. Learn math for its own reasons and the doors it opens to improve yourself.

- Black History: Total BS argument with the usual slavemaster crap. Just one step from advocating for reparations.

- Start a business: No concept of how to capitalize is presented yet the author represents himself as a consultant and expert on black finance.

- Critical thinking: An argument area I can mostly agree with as hip-hop has led the black community to the abyss in my opinion. Too bad the author doesn’t know the difference between mind-numbing and “mind-dumbing”. Guess he’s listened to too much hip-hop...

The first books they read should have black authors.

Well that right there is a bigger problem than not reading at all. Reading racist crap is worse than remaining ignorant.
