here's a thought how about everyone take responsibility for their life and stop blaming the white man. bottom line is life is hard, yes some people have to work harder to reach their goals. women have had to overcome more obstacles then men have..if you want something bad enough nothing will hold you back. if the white man is so terrible why would a proud black man give away his power by saying the white man has kept him down?seems like an easy excuse to be lazy instead of fulfilling your destiny? why would you give anyone no matter their skin color the satisfaction of holding you back.?
