Young Black Youth seem to buy into the hype of people saying they have low IQ's and that being disruptive is cool. We have a rich history and we are the original people. Dont buy into the hype of people doing statistical research on black people. Statistics figure, but figures lie. Research your history and know that you come from Kings and Queens and your ancestors were a major contributor to the United States. First open heart surgery in US- Dr. Daniel Williams, Blks Fought bravely in all the wars of the US. Look up Black Inventor Patents, we are just as smart as everybody else. Being Educated is cool. Get your head straight and be somebody. Research your history and open your eyes. Dont believe that the only history is what you hear in class. Your history was not important to some and intentionally left out. Research and know yourself and who you came from. Quit thinking being stupid and going to jail and prison is cool. WAKE UP !

I agree with you Ronald. Entirely.

I'm not black myself but I do agree that a lot of young black folk and also a few white folk have succumbed to this mob mentality portrayed by the media, indoctrinating them and also some young white folk to have this attitude which may seem noble: 'let's stick together, us against the world' sort of thing. They think everyone is against them and they must get their own back on the world but really they are just throwing away their lives on some romantic fallacy. :(

Loose family structure; poor education; no boundaries. I agree with you, but I don't think there's a magic bullet that's going to change things overnight..

I think you should've put this in the rap and hip hop section
