Salute for your mentorship efforts and your sense of responsibility in helping your community, most of us feel the same way and/or also putting in work
The flaw in your assumption is thinking because folks are talmbowt how fawked up "the system" is, then that means we are making excuses for street terrorist, drug dealers, and irresponsible black fathers, when that's furthest from the truth
It's not about having a low expectation for black folks, but we're maintaining perspective to the reality of some black folks' plight like low employment opportunities for teens, brehs with prison records, low skill, minimal education , or just temporarily down on their luck, illegal immigration directly impacts them
Any breh not being able to put food on the table has no time or patience to be talmbowt how to defeat white supremacy, build black ecnonomical structure and supporting only black businesses that invest back into the community
That is why my parents stressed to me and my siblings that, personal responsibility means nothing if its not complimented by societal responsibility, vice versa. To show us that you cannot just focus on tackling one issue, while ignoring/minimizing other overlapping issues that contributes to a bigger problem. That's the flaw when folks talk that "bu bu what about black on black crime," when the topic is about holding police accountable. So if you cannot hold a governmental agency accountable, like the police, then how you finna hold the judiciary, legislative, executive branches accountable for laws and policies that undermines the black community
