Probability a black boy born today can be expected to be sentenced to prison: 1 out of 3
Median black household income as a % of median white household income, 2019: 59.7%
Black high school graduation rate, 2017: 67% (compare to 93% for whites)
Life expectancy for blacks, 2018: 75 years (compare to 78.6 years for whites, 81.9 years for hispanics, and 86.3 years for Asians)
Number of blacks who died from heart disease in 2017: 77,260
Number of blacks who died from cancer in 2019: 73,030
Number of blacks shot to death by police in 2019: 235
Which should we worry about the most? Education. But black graduation rate isn't enough. Where I live, the predominantly black schools are also the worst schools, both in terms of graduation rate-- AND in quality of education. A great example is the worst high school in Cincinnati. All students in grade 11 take the ACT every year. The school went 4 years without a single person getting a "college ready" score (19). Yet-- there are plenty in the same school with a 3.0 or better GPA. They've dumbed down the curriculum just so they can shuffle the kids out-- completely unprepared for much of anything.
An educated populace is far less likely to become a criminal populace. Fixing education would make it easier to fix the poverty, fix the wage gap, and fix the incarceration rate. Studies also show that a black person with a college degree is also far more likely to stay in a nuclear family-- further helping the cycle.
Tiny/Grace - Thank You - thoughtful - it is not - to me- what One deals with first as symptoms of the problems - but underlying causes.
Our government welfare/busing and other policies have taken the nuclear black family and destroyed it - and removed the educational input from blacks for their children by moving them across town in a search for 'quota equality".
And think - ala Teachers unions - the more money wasted and the more marxism taught - - well - the better for harris marxist dictatorship it wil be - and they may be correct.,
70% of black children are born t unwed mothers - due to government policies LSM propaganda pressures against nuclear families.
the issues have taken decades for DPST policies to bear fruit - and the solutions are difficult - but the DPST's only wish to perpetuate blacks on their own Plantation in servitude in DPST shithole cities to ensure the captured Votes.
Culture and education - agreed - and preparing blacks for a work force, employment, and a stable family life will reduce the 5-15 times rate black men are incarcerated v white men.
The LSM glorifies the" hood and gang" cultures - what employer will hire a man who applies with butt hanging out from saggy pants, and inarticulate speaking ebonics , and no work ethic.
None. Regardless of skin coloration.
it would require a sea change in the culture and educational system - and the DPST's are entrenched in their Plantation system - and not about to change a damn thing while they hold the black vote hostage on their Plantation racial identity politics system.
am i to be criticized by the DPST's as a white man speaking of what i know nothing - Ok - Fine
Let's see if the Lily white DPST nomenklatura Masters have anything better - other than marxist teacher's unions, more busing, OBLm segregation, and glorification of the 'hood' culture which murders so many young black men.
DPST's and YR/multiple handles - go ahead and post the usual racist, marxist nonsense from your LSM propaganda - and bow to your Comrade XiNN.
Rather than comment on the issues - little 'a' - goes directly to Trump hate. So SAD!
