In a previous post, I listed a number of black leaders who funded programs that provide scholarships and aim to get kids to reject drugs. I have no idea how successful any of these programs are. But at least there's an effort to try to affect change. They're trying to make an impact.
Give them credit for at least making an effort. You don't know how successful these programs have been...

So doing something even if it accomplishes nothing is good? As I keep saying, create jobs for people, that requires more effort than just writing a check to a charity to make you feel good because you did "something".
