The glorification of gangster culture via rap music.

Take the television show The Fresh Prince of Belaire as a case in point. Will Smith’s character, who fled West Philly due to petty crime, is propped up and glamorized while Carlton, the responsible good student, is considered a sell out to white culture.

Less Will Smith’s, more Carlton’s and you would be surprised at the rates of success in life.

All wisdom starts with a fear of God. Same thing is needed in all communities.

Education. So much of our problems would be solved if people were not complete dumb fricks all of the time.

I think the easiest thing would be to try and split the hood in half . Or move the ones that want a better life to a different location . You can’t help people that don’t want to help their self. The problem is that democrats will never allow it . They need to keep their main voting block . Offers ng a boot camp for their kids would be another idea we could sent the illegal immigrants to and anyone else that wants to go . They could teach them how to be successful in life . Teach them things that can give them confidence like growing a garden , farming and trades .

I'm not going to limit to fathers. They need fricking LEADERS. The rest follows leadership.

Guidance
Accountability
Motivation
Drive
Success

It starts and stops with parental involvement in their children's education.

More free shite and less purpose and responsibility. Why else would Joe Biden be doing what he is doing?

This only works if the community buys in and assists the police when they investigate.

The DA of Baton Rouge has mentioned before how much community assistance he got when the police were investigating crimes in white areas and openly wishing they got that kind of help in solving all the murders in NBR.

quote:

poor minority communities


The premise is wrong. "Poor" is ever changing in our society. No matter what we do, you will always have "poor". Every single economic system known to man will have this.

The beauty of our system is the ability to move up the economic ladder (or down if you make bad decisions). I've been "poor" and I've been "rich". Every American that has a clear mind and drive can be successful in the USA.

Minority and poor are not interchangeable. One doesn't go with the other.
