We are Dooming our Black Children

(Excerpted from a commentary written July 29, 2015)
for The Bold Pursuit

Not only are we failing to solve serious problems such as crime, we are all but forbidden to even discuss the issue if it offends anyone.  For example, it is no secret that while black people comprise about twenty percent of our citizenry, fifty percent of the felonies are committed by them.  Ninety percent (or thereabouts) of black citizens who are murdered, are murdered by black people.   Just try discussing that with any random sampling of voters, but take care to shield yourself from accusations of racism.  The issue itself will be drowned out in the tirade of anger from the left, and the problem continues.

The teacher unions and their political cronies have hijacked our schools, victimizing inner city black students, despite the fact that per student spending on them— in poorly performing schools— by the government— is far greater than the spending in many better performing schools, both public and private.  Yet the demand is always for more money and less accountability.

Mysteriously, black families continue to support the very same politicians whose destructive rampage in their children’s lives continues.  Maybe it’s not so mysterious, when one considers the schools they attended.
