We as a people can do better. How? We need to”counsel and teach our young people” to become the Cop, not the thug, to become the prison warden, not the prisoner, to become the banker, not the debt slave, to become the leader of the class, not the distraction, etc. We need to give more support to our local churches, businesses, and virtual community.
Thank you so much or the links.
It’s sad, but when I read the subject line I looked at the links and the first thing that I thought to myself was
“ I wouldn’t call any of this progress” there is still just as much racism, sexual harassment and stereotyping as there was 20 years ago.
We can just freely talk, tweet, and FB about it now.
Thanks again for all you do
Odd how this lists seems to leave out black figures from other political spectrums: Condoleeza Rice, 1st black secretary of state, Colin Powel, 1st black joint chief of staff. It is too bad that the NAACP has become some political and not acknowledging others who merit it simply because a political tilt. They fail at diversity in this regards.
