yes in recent threads they schooled us that racism isn't holding back blacks, blacks are holding back blacks

If you work hard and stop being ratchet (acting black) there's nothing stopping you from succeeding

Yes they are among us

I believe some have been sent, while others are simply indoctrinated

So what now? All of us are well aware of the problem (s). We have the studies and statistical evidence to prove what everyone knows, some denied but the results are as is. What now?

What do we do now? Any solution to the problem? Advice on what we should do? What?

I just need them to read this summarized study and others like it and have an 'Ah ha!' moment. Big smile

Lawd knows I can not wait ti drop this study on the clueless Becky in class next semester.

I just what to hear any plans/advice/suggestions/ on what we can do to counteract this problem. Talking about it is the first step. Now it's time to move on and make plans. What now?
Personally, I'm stumped. The education myth ( thought it helps to a great extent) has been exposed. What are we tell our children now?

lol they didn't let the light all the way in

Acknowledging the problem helps because there's now an issue to fix

Racism blamed blacks, many bought into it and since that wasn't the root we've been spinning our wheels for decades

I think re-branding black and exposing/dismissing the roots/causes/tactics/intent of the negative stereotypes and beliefs about blackness will go a long way in helping to rebuild the black psyche.

The true definition and manifestations of racism needs to be made very simple and very clear. Many have no idea what racism is. Racism likes it that way.

A combination of laws, shame and social pressure can also help even the scale
