His words are not without some merit. But it's time for this blanket castigation of all things Black lower socio-economic class to stop.
Thank you for so eloquently articulating exactly how I feel. I agree with some of what Bill says, but I am not sure what he is accomplishing or that how he is going about it will have any impact. More often than not I think he is "preaching to the choir." I think many of the situations he describes are ones that have spiraled out of control and even those in them are not clear how to make a difference. Is he really proposing good working solutions? A bunch of Christian brothers throwing on suits and running up on drug dealers in Baltimore is just going to add to the body count. That is not a safe or realistic solution. Can we talk about what works and what can work and how we can really make a difference?
