Very well stated !Let me play Devil's Advocate: For every person who don't believe you can make it out the bottom to the top ...
...there is going to be someone who did, who feels, because they did it, other people should be. Both people are mental prisoners of their own life experiences.
with his side chick in the carMorgan Freeman lost an arm in a car wreck in Mississippi back in 2008. He's been growing progressively crazier ever since.

Not surprising,this is the same dude that said there shouldn't be a Black History Month.......
His point was that it shouldn't be a Black History month because it's demeaning to regulate all of our contributions to America to one month. Our history should be taught every day of the year because America wouldn't be what it is today without us. The fact they cherry pick Martin Luther King from a history so vast and rich and show him and him only on the shortest month of the year is some bullshit.
I digress tho.
See why this coon assed opinion is dangerous? Bitch nigga.
Scary part is that it ain’t just white folk who that this. There are a handful of coons latching on to this diseased thinking. Ask these clowns if slaves were so insignificant why did they use our labor for 250 years?This is dangerous bc a lot of what he's saying is true, but it's out of context. I'd refer people to another thread "The half that's never been told" if they want to understand it in a better context. A lot of people "built" America... but slaves provided the foundation for what America is, and without that foundation there wouldn't be the wealth and there wouldn't have been the opportunity to invite immigrants over to expand it. The wealth from the output of slave labor fueled everything. Period. It fueled manufacturing in the north - entire towns of workers - where there was a labor intense environment.
Very dangerous to let this sort of bull shit go unchecked. Very very dangerous. All sorts of false equivalences. The Arab world example is another. The Arab world was the center of the world for 800 years. The Ottoman empire was the Jimziggity. Not sure how that gets glossed over so cavalierly but it just did.

Yup, but that still isn't the half of it. In order to teach the truth of slavery and the black experience you would have to disavow and change the bullshit and patriotic nonsense that make up the vast majority of school text books.Now imagin white women teachers across the country teaching kindergarteners and 1st graders black history. Projects like here is your black history person, make a paper doll and write about who that person is. Required project by the way. It's such a fail.
Trying to explain slavery and racism to a kindergartner is like trying to explain computers to a person who has never used one.
Right on, but it wasn't just the output of the slaves that built america. It was also the slaves themselves. The very black bodies of our ancestors were used as assets to create an industry that enabled america to become what it is. In addition to the labors.This is dangerous bc a lot of what he's saying is true, but it's out of context.

Now Imagine if you simply left the teaching of math and science to the white teacher and you taught your own damn child black history .Imagine if you taught your own child how to read and also how to think by having discussions with them about what they read?
How about if you took and active role in what they taught your child so that your child was taught to think and question?
Imagine if you showed up to parent-teacher conference and school plays and programs? Here is a secret, be the teacher black or white if they see your ass in that school enough to know your name by site your child will benefit.
Imagine when your child showed their ass you busted their ass because they are taught they represent their family when they walk out the house instead of making excuses for their bad asses..
Imagine if you made it a point to know where your children are and who their friends are....And your children know what is acceptable and are taught consequences.
Imagine if you teach your children pride in their blackness and that nobody can define them or their worth.
Funny thing is that a great many of the black men Morgan's age and older didn't know how to read or had very little formal education and many who had parents who couldn't.
Black folks who grew up during the great depression and many who got out of poverty did so because they were drafted into WW2 and got to college because of the GI Bill and purchased homes because of the GI bill.
Personal responsibility and social policy
Yeah, that's true, however, that's. it always going to be the case for a lot of kids. In an ideal situation, parents being actively involved in their child's education has the benefits but their are so many adults that are uneducated themselves.
We can always say it's personal responsibility, but it's definitely within a system to teach kids certain things that they know are at a major disadvantaged and unable to critically think outside their environment.
