i've always been an advocate of black entertainment millionaires giving back. but to whom do they give back too...? there's no infrastructure in the bc to receive such large donations.

I'm all for these brothers and others who have become successful and want to make a difference in whatever capacity they can. However, I don't feel that they are obligated to give back anything to the communities... Most of these folks in these communities need to get up off their behinds and do something... Commit 10% of their money and time to improving their environment and get rid of the the destructive elements that continue to bring them down....Start cleaning up their own backyard then maybe other folks will notice the effort and chip in and want to contribute......Nah, that's probably asking way to much....
