Opps, you're right.

It was the Welfare Reform Act that he passed that denied assistance and benefits to people convicted of CERTAIN drug related convictions (pretty much destroying a stepping stone to get back on their feet i.e. food stamps, federal assistance, student loans, etc.).

Sorry, wrong thread. There are so many things against us its hard to keep track.

It is something to look at though. Out of a total of 3,892,400 felons in the US, 1,367,100 are black men

I agree with Love-spell. At what point do we (AfAm) take a look at ourselves and say "What are we doing wrong?"
