About Me
"In my opinion"
Concerning to whom the fault of oppression belongs;
"We are not all equally guilty but we are all equally responsible" - Rabbi Abraham Hescel
Concerning blaming others for the problem;
"...And why beholdest thou the mote that is in thy brother's eye, but considerest not the beam that is in thine own eye?... - Matthew: 7 1-5
Concerning how to fix the problems concerning oppression;
"Someone once said that the word 'motivation' should never be used in the singular. Some combination of motives always exist and it's impossible for anyone to qualify the proportion of each that is involved in any given act" - Warren Buffet (in an interview in the USA Today)
Please take into account that the views expressed on my blog are prefaced with; in my opinion, in my experience or even (sometimes) random observations and/or thoughts.

Welcome
Although I'm pretty tired of the "Race is King" mantra usually put forward by past and current polemics, race-relations (and the improvement of such) is always a good topic of civilized conversation. I've been called "Uncle-Tom" more times than I've been called "N-----". When I volunteer at the local Habitat for Humanity, I'm often the only black working who's not trying to get a house. When I volunteer at the local shelter, I'm usually the only black on the giving end. Something is wrong or deficient with Black-culture (as it is practiced today). Don't say that I don't know the ghetto, I'm originally from the ghetto. My ghetto-pass wasn't pulled, like my middle school I.D., it expired. I graduated. Now, I say middle school because too many blacks haven't graduated from high school. (Detroit, anybody ?) Please feel free to bring up any topic but please refrain from misusing epithets and downgrading others. Thank you, UBJ

Well people who were losers work hard to make their children winners. It happens in sports too. The difference is people want to know who was the parent to a star and how they were. So these constant interviews make the loser parent feel now they are important too and they feel their second chance has arrived.
Many people do the best they can with what they have.
There is no shame in this.
It is only when parents stop being parents that kids go wild.
A lot of successful people came from poorer neighborhoods but their parents still remained in control.
The parnets knew when to say, "No" and when to break out the belt.
The parent sacrificed to ensure the best chances for their children.
The parents did not ride on the coat tails of their own children.
In many cases, the parent-child dynamic has shifted.
The difference is the people who came from the poor areas didn't turn into popstars! It seems to me the loose parent who raises loose kids will take the opportunity from their childs fame to be loose again.
Loose morals or loose morals it's just no one is watching what comes from the hood.
