The question is who is "WE?" There are plenty of people out there that give back to their community once the"make it." There are also those that shun those that are poor. But this goes on in every community.I think that there are a ton of generalizations made about our community. OK, I know that the article is true to some end. However, there are these sorts of people in all communities. I am just trying to figure out why WE are always targeted.

I don't like the fact that we always have to rethink our efforts and methods in order for White Americans to stop writing stories entitled "Blacks Don't Read" and things like that. Of course we need to start building up our communities, but it shouldn't take "outsiders" to tell us what we do and don't do for our community.
