In agreement!
This is no reflection on the white community, but I am not worried about the problms there because I know they will be addressed. However, I am concerned that we have not paid enough attention to our own. we have excused far too much. I believe we must take our own selves to task and not let ourselves off the hook.
As an example. We have to demand that crimminals move out of our communitites. We cannot continue to allow them to live and trhrive in our communities. I know that we all like bargains and the "barbershop" bargain is one of the most infamous in the black community where known crooks and thugs coime to barbershops and beauty salons to sell hot goods. Yes, the bargains are great, but when we buy a hot television set, watch, ring, DVD etc., we are encouraging the practice that sooner or later will end up visiting our own houses. We have to say no! Or, we are just as guilty despite the great bargain, we are encouraging crime by buying stolen property.
You are so right! We have to start with ourselves and that willnot be easy.
