re: Black kids face racism before they even start school. It's driving a major mental health

A lot of the problems sound like a lack of parenting before the kids get to school.

But even the presence of both parents is a problem if they instill a messed up culture. My first nice apartment after college was next door to a black guy who I hung out with a lot.
His Samoan mother put him up for adoption as a baby and a white couple took him and raised him white. He dressed, spoke and behaved like an upper class white guy. He got his MBA by age 24.
I asked if he had any problems with race. He said 'Only dating opportunities. I'm culturally white and I don't find black girls attractive at all. So I have a smaller pool of white girls that are open minded.'
