Frater(?) Tony Brown
I had the opportunity to hear him present on Saturday at the Rock Mount NAACP Banquet. He said even if blacks and whites have equal education and ability blacks will still fall short. He gave the example of the two groups completing similar degree programs. Henoted blacks start off with $50, 000 in student loans - then marries someone with $50,000 in loans. Bro. Brown says blacks need to learn to invest in each other in order to create equal footing and advancement. Furthermore, he noted whites will take equity out of their home to pay for their children's education and leave them money and/or property so the next generation will have a better life.
Just food for thought - - -
