I think that the one point that was missing in this article was the lack of positive role models for young men.. By this, I mean educated fathers and uncles who will stay in their azz til they succeed academically. There is such a problem ingrained in our culture about getting by and getting over and living for the immediate. Without steady jobs and homeownership by educated bethroted couples, there can be no "community". Without men to guide, provide, protect, and instruct, these boys are sucked into a vacuum of misplaced masculinity and a defiance of anything that demands study, detail, and mental labor. The absence of men is killing our race and culture. I thank God everyday for the strong examples of men that showed me how to be a man. Sometimes I feel as if our situation is hopeless. The fight gets harder everyday.
