Why not? Yes, the damage is done, but it is up to the new generations to break the cycle of dysfunctional behavior (ie Thots having illegitimate seeds and the jackasses that leave them).
Denzel Washington: Don't blame the prison system, 'It starts at the home'

100% agree. It's one thing to have this discussion in a barbershop full of black people or in a black household, but if you're Denzel Washington doing an official interview that's on the record, you gotta know how you're going to sound talking about "its not the system, it's black people".Only c00ns found any truth in Cosby's speech. Did you even hear it? Do I need to post quotes from it?
Black people need to stay the fukk on code and stop denigrating our own people in the white man's media.
...and I dont think the wise ones in this thread are in disagreement. but that statement is wrong unless it was paraphrased. "dont blame the prison system...."
So you think that the single mother cycle is all about black women being thots and black men being jackasses who leave?

Survey finds dads defy stereotypes about black fatherhood
Black men who don't live at home are more active their children's lives than white/hispanic men who don't live at home. Imagine that.

We all know what he said, it was a speech from 2004, Michael Dyson wrote a book about it, and here we are talking about it now
Of all the speeches Farrakhan, sharpton and Jesse has made, none were as impactful or caused as much debate/discussion as cosby’s - give that speech its props
again, I am not accusing Denzel of c00nery but if this is somehow interpreted at that by other blacks then
but for some reason those photos attached to the article just gives off the wrong vibe subliminally

Salute to Denzel.... Spoke truth!!! I posted here several times.... If my father was absent...i would be in jail and broke!!! My pops the single most important person in my life.... Literally gave me all the tools and knowledge to succeed.... Im 22 doing better than most old heads I know - and it's all because of my OG... Im forever grateful for my people... Children are the future...they deserve ALL the tools necessary to succeed and beat the system... Its MANDATORY... Not an option...... If my pops decided to have kids before he was ready, I'd probably be fukked.

Bill was finding issue with blacks using Slang & saggin pants, using as justification.. Irrelevant shyt, Slang & Saggin pants ain't a crime, ain't hurting nobody..

then you obviously havent heard many speeches from him.
impactful to whom?
you exposing yourself
Black criminals do not make up even one percent of black people in America and they also do not contribute 2 sustaining black people economically in America.
No one is forcing anyone to be a criminal in America.
The image of the honorable Criminal Who commit crime just to feed his family makes up an even smaller percentage of career criminals. Criminals are largely predatory and selfish people.

Now what if some cop planted drugs on you? What if officer George Zimmerman is following you home one night? What if you're convicted of a murder you didn't commit because he looked like another black man or you had the same nickname as him, and 30 years go by before the Innocence Project is on your case? Having a father in the household is guaranteed to prevent any of this stuff from happening to you?
Farrakhan is a great man and though I’m not in the nation, I do read the final call often
But if you say “cosby pound cake speech” most of us know what you’re talking about. Whether you agreed or disagreed.
Farrakhan can’t say this. He reiterates what many of our community already knows or believes. Cosby spoke on something the gatekeepers of blackness had avoided speaking on for decades
This is why Jesse was on that stage bawling like a newborn during that speech too

Of course you wouldn't look at his success because people like you stay looking for a way to discredit folks. Ole he didn't come from the super bottom so it isn't relevant as nikkas I tell ya. Also its only a handful of people period regardless of race about to do much in this world so hell is your point? Just say you're a hater instead of making up these bullshyt ways dude didn't make it.
