This co-hosting then is an important issue..have you ever seen say a black person co-hosting a country music tribute? In your statement yes education of blacks is important but that's something the parents in many situations have direct control of, they can help get their children an early start by taking them to the library and other educational based events. True educational resources in many black communities are lacking but if we can venture out and find the better movies/music we want that's not in our communties then we can also find educational resources that's not in our communties.Excuses don't cut it people always do what the hell they really want to do.....if a cat from Africa or The Islands can move here live in the same communties that we've been living in all our lives and ensure that his kids study hard and progress educationally why can't we?...............parents do your part, then make sure your kids study hard in school.....and also support this protest.


Also as far as the economics we as black people produce more wealth then many nations and there are a million and one books and magazines in publication about money management.......I quess what I'm saying is there's no excuse for us to really complain about that either...just keeping it real.
Believe me, I'm not angry at you. Why start the post with "Christ?" My only concern is that stuff such as this gets more attention and obscures serious, underlying problems.
And I also agree that many of us who have kids (I don't, am nearly 40 and don't want to be a single mom) really need to ensure that our kidpeople progress economically.
