At first I took your post as a question. After your last post I realized you are just tooting your own horn.
Forget my reply, because you are just another faker.
Hope your community gets organized and your political rights get activated.
There is nothing you can do to lower black participation in crime... You are just another Sharpton wannabe.

Teach your children the same values you were taught and encourage your black friends to do the same. I believe poor parenting and lack of values is the core of the problem. As far as helping others I'd say the best idea is to start with the young ones and stick with them to keep them in the right direction, but again this won't work if the second they go home all values are put to the wayside.

I had parents and other adults in my life who wanted me to succeed and pushed me to be a better man.

That being said, I do have plenty of liberal ideologies, but I want to enact them discussion and reason not violence.

Do you realize that you just said that liberal ideologies are against personal success, achievement, and self improvement, and they are for inciting violence for not getting the fruits of the above?

Just curious if that was intentional or if you just plug in transitional phrases you've heard before wherever you feel like.

Convince blacks to stop having children in their teens and convince black fathers to be actual dads instead of baby daddies

Volunteer to mentor kids

Somehow get the government in this state to kill half of the public colleges and take all of that money and invest it into trade school education starting in 10th grade. You get a generation of people with a trade school education, plumbers, mechanics, electricians, hvac, etc.... With a full time job and nonreliance on government and those people raise a generation who want to do better then them and you break the cycle of poverty.

This is the answer. You also need to add one class that teaches kids how to open accounts at a bank, electric company, water company, etc. Teach them also about credit and how it works. Basic life skills are a necessity.

Unfortunately for Volod, none of this is going to happen any time soon. IT involves planning and forethought. It also involves admitting that everybody is not created equal.

Volod, with your background you can tutor kids in math and help them plan their education. You can also start a scholarship fund. Not all scholarships are yuge.

Not a damned thing. Some are destined to be hoodlums regardless of what anyone does to help them, unfortunately.
