Black Role Models where are you?

[bigramdaddy]

I feel sorry for all the young black brothers growing up in the streets having to listen to black people blame the white people until the end of time. Black people blame white people as a easy way out, for taking responsibilites for their own actions.Here's a history lesson for everyone.. White people didn't create slavery.. Black people in Africa would slave other villages when they were defeated. When the spanish shown up this was already long established.. I think black people should move on.. They are stuck in old society, when they are living in a country that is full of oppurtunities... But just keep blaming the white people.. Keep all this hate running through your blood.. It's just going to eat you up and spit you out.. The worst part about this is the role models for black people are getting only worse.. Kids today who's their idol.. Mike Vick, T.I. etc... These kids are being set up to fall through the crack of their own society and people.

Why is it that ever since M. Vick got arrested, people keep claiming him as THE role model for black people? No one believes us when we say "Obama" or "Oprah," but as soon as someone gets arrested, (s)he's supposedly our #1 (wo)man. What's up with that?

Yea, that's the secret. The power elites, media, their own leaders tell them whitey keeps 'em down. Any time a wise black person tries to point this out, "he a, uncle tom." As long as Jessie and Al, (both race pimps) keep making excuses for bad behavior, it won't change. Thankfully, some of them are wising up. I like blacks as a whole, I just wish they could get on the boat with the rest of us. This is not 1955.
