Its sad that most of y'all will never have to talk to you kids about how someone will judge you based off the color of you skin and the opportunity they might not ever be able to have because of there color but you all can sit here and write like y'all understand the pressure that a black male has to go through. Half of y'all don't understand and will never understand because you live a life where things are handed to you on a silver platter. |
I'm not bashing money, just saying that's not helping these kids in the basic ways they need to get hope and a break in life, without those leaders doing more. Much is given to those leaders and more can be done by far to help so many of the people who made them wealthy beyond measure.
And until you know where a person's monthly money goes and for what charities, their lifetime of work and volunteer/charity/one-on-one work, don't ever assume what that person has done to walk the walk they now just have to talk about. Many of us have given all we had to the downtrodden and poor and can no longer do that. Time for others to step up who have the means and ability to do it.
