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

Black kids face racism before they even start school. It's driving a major mental health crisis.
But at predominantly Black schools like the one in Columbus, Ohio, where Strother works, students’ mental health is further tested by pressures and discrimination they endure because they are Black, as well as poverty and violence in some communities that have faced years of disinvestment.
“Anytime you deal with African American mental health, you’re not dealing with one thing,” Strother said. “It is several things. It is trauma that has not been addressed.”
------------------------------------
The drivers of the mental health crisis for Black children begin early and persist through a lifetime. Black children’s first encounters with racism can start before they are even in school, and Black teenagers report experiencing an average of five instances of racial discrimination per day. Young Black students are often perceived as less innocent and older than their age, leading to disproportionately harsher discipline in schools.
Black adolescents are far less likely than their white peers to seek and find mental health care. In part, that’s because Black families often distrust the medical system after generations of mistreatment — from lack of access to care to being subjected to racist practices and experimentation like the Tuskegee Study. The country also has a shortage of providers who understand the roles that racial identity and racism play in shaping young Black people’s mental health.

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

When you only have one parent that's gonna happen.

They typically have zero parents, just someone who spawned a paycheck.

It's insane how we dance around the root causes of cultural rot that has caused all this.
They always sandwich the real problem between social justice horseshite.
These people exist in cultures that have no impulse control, don't value family, don't value education, and are completely selfish.
Spending 100k/student/year won't fix that.

Teaching your kids that nothing in life worth having comes free or easy is worthwhile. Teaching your kids that a race of people and/or society as a whole will single them out and keep them "down" despite their gifts is 100% child abuse, and setting them up to be a fricking loser.
I stand by that shite with everything I am.

I want to hear the examples.

No it's because blacks disproportionately commit more offenses.
The rest is just a search for excuses to excuse blacks not doing what they need to do.

2. Raised by grandma
3. Feral

Do you really think that black families have ever heard of the Tuskegee study?

Asking teenagers who get clout from claiming racism if they've been victims of racism isn't a reliable source.

They had to destroy the black family in order to keep them on the plantation forever...

You already know what they are.
"Whitey looked at me wrong."
It's all about perception with them, not actual proven discrimination.
I swear to God when I was younger I was walking downtown during the FQF and the group of people I was with - all White - walked past a yard that had a dog in it. Shortly in front of us was a Black woman and her kids. The dog barked at them when they walked past but not us.
One of the kids - couldn't have been older than 8 - asked out loud "Why that dog only barks at Black people?" They are trained to see racism in everything from a young age.

The Radical Leftist USA blames the "lack of parenting" on White Supremacy, Racism and Oppression of African Americans at the hands of the White Patriarchy.
Every social ill is the fault of the same things: the White Supremacist past of the USA. It's very simple so that even simple people can absorb and embrace the Propaganda Objective. It's reductionist in the most profound meaning of the word. It's beautiful in a profoundly Satanic way.
Our minds are going to be relentlessly pounded by this propaganda message in the coming years and decades. I cannot even begin to fathom the comprehensiveness with which our children and grandchildren will be flooded with this propaganda message.
It is frightening to contemplate. We may live to see children reporting their parents to Government Re-education Programs for failure to embrace this propaganda message.

The real epidemic is like I posted 2 days ago in a different but similar issue thread.. the capitalizing Black, and lowercase of white is terrible.
They are lowering whites to being beneath the black culture and not being equal

These kids grow up in a war zone of course they are going to have problems.
But white people have nothing to do with that. We didn’t cause the war zone and we can’t stop the war zone.

Imagine telling someone their entire lives they cannot make it. The system is against them. That no matter how hard they work they won't be able to be successful. That whites and asians hate them. etc etc etc.
Then wonder why they have mental health issues.

I was more thinking of "things that don't happen" BUT when everything done right is considered white supremacy.
