Peace,
If you want a stronger black community then start by teaching the babies. Not the nonsense taught to our babies by people who don't act or look like us, but the truth. Old people are not going to change so the change has to start with the young. Learn the truth then teach the truth to the youth. If they can reach adulthood and have full understanding of how things work in this country and the world then you might start seeing the results you're looking for.
Peace
I was with u up until the highlighted sentence. Don't assume that "old people" won't change. It's not about age but a mindset and older people are capable of changing through increased knowledge and understanding. Also, who did you have in mind would teach the "truth" to the youth? Like our youth, old people should not be throw-aways. Many of us have wisdom that is important to pass on to our youth and I strongly support a culture that values and respects its elders. IMO, the young and the old are extremely beneficial and necessary to each other. Until science and medicine prove otherwise, you can't have one without the other.
