We all care about the community right? The epidemic of deadbeat dads is kinda getting better from its peak in the 90s, but it's still at atrocious levels. As a result, these fatherless children are responsible for the majority of the crimes being committed in the inner city, the teenage pregnancy and abortion rates, their lack of accountability & sticktoitiveness and are a general nuisance.
When me & my dad are out somewhere, somewhere as simple as Walmart or the park playing basketball, I see young brehs looking at us and the shyt is super disheartening. You can tell they're longing for a fatherly bond or and older cat to spend time with and drop jewels on them, something they never had and likely never will
We see them as no good, but behind the manic depression and violence they're still mental toddlers crying out for love and attention. If "woke" successful black men & women began mentoring more heavily and showing the kids some fly shyt and letting them see the fruits of success from something other than sports, hip-hop and drug dealing, would that rub off on the kids, seeing positive examples of education, healthy love & affection, masculinity/femininity and integrity? Would it help turn around the devastating free fall that has been affecting the black community? Your thoughts?
