I know :bryan:

I didn't even want to mention that because their heads would probably explode or they'd claim I was making it into a competition.

Its so obvious when people attack groups of people and the things they do because of the feelings of inadequacy it somehow brings up in them.

^^ we need more orgs like that..they have a clear agenda of teaching math through video games, kids will eat that up

This.. I gave a presentation at my sons school( Career day ) all 4th graders. I showed them how simple addition is used to increase a players speed, a little bit about gravity, frames per second , Angles( players point of view ) etc. I used the game Mine craft as an example( Since that's all they kept talking about )...and they freaking loved it and a lot of them had that "Really?!?!?!?!"...Schools need to do a better job of using topics kids are interested in when teaching Math.

Its the truth

I don't see the connection. You remind me of this hairdresser talking shyt in the shop just because I brought my persian girlfriend there a few times so she can chill while I get my haircut, asking me if I have a black girlfriend and shyt or if I'm sure I'm black. Come on now, give me a break, I run programs for youth I make sure young nikkas have shyt to do, that's part of my job.

I don't mind this workshop I think it's wonderful, it's great. I know why it's successful, and that's not necessarily a good thing. That's why it would be really, really great if black boys were apart of it too. It's not like there's a shortage of black women attending post-secondary institutions. Things need to be equal and balanced.

Come on, that's ignorant.

What's ignorant about it? This dude in here feigning concern for black boys while he's laid up with some Chinese chick. Once you marry out, stay out. His commentary is ironically demonic.

:camby:

As for the topic, if a black woman wants to set up a program for black girls to excel, let her. Its time black men stop abandoning the community then getting upset when the women choose to be self sufficient. Why are you dudes so worried about BW running to white men? If they want to, let them. It should be more of a motivator for us to step our game up.

He's a black man himself, is he only allowed to show concern for Chinese boys? I don't understand this reply.

It's a dumb ass reply. Marrying out of the race does not mean you should no longer have any say in the race, would be not let a Frederick Douglas speak to the community because he married a white woman? :usure:

So the only people that should show concern for black boys are white people and black women. Listen to yourself. You sound like an idiot. You gotta be mad light skinned or a fukkin Cac. Lets disown the president while we're at it, moron.

I don't care about who you marry/date, however if you are truly pro black person it would reflect in the most important aspects of your life like who you marry and procreate with .... but again its your life your choice

Like I said before there are tons of sex /race/ faith based organizations/ schools/ programs because a lot of the times its allows for more effective teaching/learing for example boys tend to do better in all boys schools etc

This is a programming program for Black boys that @PartyHeart posted, created by a Black women once again

He should show concern to whoever he wants to but he should leave the politics out of it since he was no interest in blackness. We stopped the talking black living white of yesteryear. All that got us was wacked out post civil rights leaders turning to mormonism
