When the fukk did you start c00ning?This is disingenuous and a deflection. This video doesnt have anything to do with black american culture, huh? Do I need to direct you to black out-of-wedlock rates, black crime rates, subpar black high school graduation rates to reinforce the obvious?

Do I need to direct you to literature on how all those stats are misleading and used to enforce stereotypes about black people.
And even then none of that has ANYTHING to do with this little five minute video.
And you know this how?A far bigger population WITHIN the overall black population that is far bigger than other respective populations wake up EVERYDAY with a complete lack of respect for authority, responsibility, and common decency. This is what the Richard Sherman's of the world are trying to say. Addressing the personal responsibility (or lack thereof) of the individual actors and actions of black people.
Repeat stereotypes brehs

No you don't have to tiptoe around anything. You have to realize that they are totally unrelated issues.You try to address it, and be ready to be called a cac lover, c00n, tom that sides with white racists. Being placed in this impossible space insulates these young people from their actions, and helps to victimize people like this poor black educator in the video. We have to tip-toe around it.
As fukked up as those kids acted, they still deserve to be treated fairly by society.
Puttin "Institutional bias" in quotes and calling it a crutch, tells me you are not serious about addressing either issue.This is the point --- yes racism has shaped these outcomes, but how do we address these outcomes that HARM black people every day? This is the uncomfortable conversation black people as a whole are unwilling to have, because we always want to fall on our "institutional bias" crutch.
You made this into a black issue. And that's the problem.We cannot and should not begin every conversation on black issues as us being victims of societal bias and malice. Until then, dont expect these behaviors to ever really change.
This is an issue for those kids and how they have harmed their own futures. Has nothing to do with black people as a whole. You don't see a video of white kids acting out, then conclude some grand statement about white people as a whole.




the thread on LSA prolly left that part out too so forgive Ms
