You've got hundreds of community organizations, including my own, working with kids every day trying to fight these external influences coming at them. You have protests going on at Black college campuses (i.e. Spelman). You've got hundereds of thousands of parents meeting with each other trying to organize against the music industry, etc. etc. etc. By the way, none of these things include sitting around waiting for the government to do anything. Why aren't these things being shown more so people can see it and jump on the bandwagon? Could it be that the media consistently opts out of covering things like this??? hmmmmm.

So, yeah, I hear what Bill is saying and all that, but I would have prefered reading/hearing about more things that are being done by those people who were glad to hear him say what he said! I would have even wanted to hear more about what HE has done, which is a LOT, for these causes.
That would be too much like right. What we are seeing in the media is a little bit more digestable for some folks. There is unrest in the Black community and I think some folks feed off of that.
