How to empower the black community succeed

No one has produced any functionally sound answers to the myriad problems in the African-American community. So let us start here, with the direct answer to the issue, so that we are clear from the start. There is one and only one answer to every ill that we face as a nation. Every single child, and most especially every African-American child, must be fully and completely educated. Whether as a mechanic or a scientist, a full education should be compulsory in the black community.
People with complete educations are not out committing street crime. People with complete educations do not need social service. People with complete educations are not being stopped and shot dead by law enforcement.
Complete education is the only answer, to every problem we have as a society today. Our people must be educated. Each of us must be self-sufficient. The inability for entire communities to grow and prosper, especially if they must then rely on others, is a root cause of racial hatred.
How long have we been asking questions about the cause of racism, along with the follow-up question: how can we make it go away?
Start by changing the narrative. It is not race, but economics that is the issue. People don’t hate us. They are simply tired of being financially responsible for people who commit crime and live in perpetual poverty. People are not racists as much as they are disappointed in the way things have turned out.
In this country, polite people do not discuss race. Within that vacuum, black people have engineered a complex system whereby whites can be manipulated, and forced to tread lightly, upon the collective psyche of the long-suffering, highly sensitive, reparations-seeking, generally persecuted black person.
In the process, black people are able to behave badly and have turned underachievement into a cultural norm. White people are not permitted to acknowledge this. They can’t bring it up...can’t get mad about it...and the closer they come to discussing the truth, the more they are accused of racial insensitivity and racial hatred.
Yet they have to live with us, protect us, feed us, and listen to us attack them for inadequately providing for non-white people. We get away with this because we can quite righteously claim that whites impeded our progress in the past.
But it is not the past any longer, and this egregious denial-and-blame game has got to stop. The past is not causing our problems today. Other cultures, races and nations have suffered and recovered. We have not.
