All great points, but using this forum as a guide.....role models are mocked on here as well (see Lebron James)
It
is poverty and not color of skin. Nobody speaks to the emergence of the
WHITE hate groups...they ARE tolerated and seem to be honored at times.
To believe that skin color dictates how you act is more than slightly dumb.
People who call for role models are hypocrites for the most part. They will say it and then when one emerges, the immediately look to mock them.
Again....To believe that skin color dictates how you act is more than slightly dumb.
