Let me first state that I DO AGREE with Mr. Cosby, but to say he is trying to solve the issue..exactly how is he doing that? I see him at these events and making statements at venues where the actual people he is talking about are NOT in attendance. I think if he was serious he would go out into those areas and address that segment of the black population. Sure he gives TONS of money to colleges, and that is great, but the people who he speaks of arent in college there still in our public schools or on the corner. IMO I think when he is at those venues speaking he need to address the middle to elite class of blacks and admionish them for widespread neglect of the poorer class.
