Okay here goes, for most black american men these are some real choices. I don't see us rushing out to buy the game, because we live it; either our man, brother or son or some other mother's son. However, it would make a great teaching tool in a diversity class. Remember white people have not idea about what it feels like to be in the non ruling class. This game might also work like the activity created by a socialogist, that seperated blue eyed people from brown eyed folks to demonstrate how it felt to be discriminated against. Then again, the game could be used with black boys to show them what some of their life choices could get them. And yes I know that there some young men who will point out that they can make more money on the street than I do as a teacher. But, I also tell them that my life expectancy is greater then theirs. Oh well, if nothing more this game has given us something else to talk about and just maybe that was the real point.
