Parris
*shrugs*. It is so hard for us sometimes to admit that WE HAVE PROBLEMS and the first place to address those problems is to look into your community, not looking at the sky and complaining about "400 years".
Parris There is a beginning for all things and a reason for how things are, we cant forget history we were done wrong, the Black race has been misused and abused and continue to be the scourge of most of this planet.
I drive a truck for a living and a lot of places that I go to you can see the hatred, hell sometimes its best not to turn on the CB least you get a ni@@@ joke from another driver, but like you that dose not stop me from working and trying to make my community a better place.
yes I agree the 400 year thing is an old record that keeps playing on and on but so dose present day racism.
Parris
It is so hard for us sometimes to admit that WE HAVE PROBLEMS…
My friend we all know that we have problems no one is blind to that fact, the only thing that we can do is do our best to rise above our individual problems and then help out our fellow man.
I think Your problem is that you feel that you are beating your noggin up agents a wall, its not easy doing what you do Boys and Girls Clubs, Youth Challenge Program,court appointed Advocate for Abused and Neglected Children. You are a hell of a Man and probably just fed up with seeing the abuse and neglect, and God knows what ells.
Parris
I'm a mentor with the Boys and Girls Clubs in Washington DC.
I'm a visiting mentor with the Youth Challenge Program in Baltimore, MD
And I'm a court appointed Advocate for Abused and Neglected Children…
Yes I took the time to read some of your post, and after I got over what I saw to be arrogance (just my opinion) I started to see pain and anger because of what you see perhaps daily.
Well Mr. Parris hear it comes a small bit of advice; let people know where you are coming from, do a post that tells folks what you see dealing with court appointed Advocate for Abused and Neglected Children and being a mentor and it would not hurt to see someone else point of view, not all of us are violent not all of us like rap music
And some of us have good home lives. And a good life is not judged on race but the heart.
The above dose not mean that I agree with everything that you say, everybody has there own opinion sometimes it changes sometimes not. somflagrwanflagjamflagghanflagethflagusflagukflag Parris in front of all the community online, I apologize to you for the way I have come across to you, and I humbly ask for your forgiveness.
Why did you lie to me?=====Because I thought you trusted me!!

I wonder why so many challenge each other online when they can challenge themselves in real life. Also some of degration needs to ceased because it takes all the legitimacy out of some of the materal. I think both AAM and Parris has good points so what happens now?

It's a MAN thing  LOL
Respect
There are those who feel that the only way to ‘prove their own worth’ is by ‘devaluing the worth of others’. You will often find that a man who is compelled to measure his substance against the substance of another, has little of substance in the first place!

I would not say that the debate is over just that tact must now be used, a proper debate should reflect respect on one or both parties involved.
================================================== ==============================
In the nineteenth century the problem that faced the Afro- American community was how to destroy the institution of slavery.
Today its about good leadership in the AAC (Afro American Community) how do we get good leaders? We raise them, it must be done on the family front. Are we fit to fight? Yes we have
MR. Parris:
Black kids are not FIT TO FIGHT, they are not going to the workplace with the skills that will allow them to compete. If you have not noticed competition in America is FIERCE for all evolved and we need to make sure our children are completive…
That’s a good point and to add to that point one must have good training ground to learn these skills and currently in the AAC it just dose not exist. Our counterparts has only to walk across the street in order to achieve such skill, And thy have what most of us do not, Old Money without Money its harder for an individual to buy a good education. More to come next weak.

The education system in our neighborhoods are not up to standard thy take from our tax money and give it to white school districts and then wonder what’s up with SAT scores.
The music that we have is extremely sexually orientated, teaching our young that a woman is an object and less then and that a man is not a man unless he has an extremely bad attitude, most of our rap videos are one step away from X rated and its geared at our kids 106 and park BET woman walking around half naked that’s madness at its biggest level..
now someone will say that its not that bad and I am putting down my community but I have a little girl and the last thing that I want for her to think is that she is not a human but an object.
Physical slavery has been replaced with mental slavery. Billboards in the Black community are filed with filth such as drinking brings on good sex, smoking and the good that comes from these activities.
Cheap Malt liquor and inferior wine is constantly pumped into our poor neighborhoods,
The lack of jobs makes it impossible for us to have our streets fixed, local firemen and well trained police.
We have a disease in our community that is constantly pumped into the hood called crack and Its devastating families left and right.
Television promotes white power in every area of life leading your child to subconsciously believe that he or she is inferior.
all of the above contributes to some of our peoples behavior and although its easy to say that we need to do this and we need to do that, pull your self up by the bootstraps, its quite hard to tell that to someone that has no way to bring themselves up tell that to a single mother with 2 kids and no job no education or a 2 bit job trying to keep a roof over the family.
There is hope and there is solutions it just takes time.
The white race did there homework very well but thy don’t get to win the war,
Thy call themselves a world power and everyone ells 3[suP]rd[/suP] world suggesting that all but them are intelligent.
Well hear is some of there intellect spelled out for your consideration:
1. Destruction of the Ozone.
2. the destruction of natural resources.
3. War on anyone that has a darker skin then them leading most of the world to hate them.
The track record of the white race will catch up with them.

A shadow exist because of an object, history exist because of events that cannot be ignored.

[align=justify]The White American workplace is more likely to employ people that look like them regardless of how well educated we may be, no mater how many degrees we have under our belts. this is historical fact that still holds true to this day, so its not just a mater of how some of us act or how well trained we are in any area. [/align]
[align=justify]
[align=justify]I do understand the importance of moving forward but History is like footprints, if lost one must retrace ones footprints in order to find there way out of the woods this is one reason that I jumpgate back to the past in order to explain the present condition of the AAC. [/align]

The reason is that it sharpens the mind and gives everybody a new fresh way to think about things, it is refreshing and fun like a good game of chess, I find Mr. Parris to be extremely intelligent and worthy of good debate and that’s why I challenged him. Out of debate comes solutions if one looks for them.
