Black men were the stewards of their communities before they started bumrushing the white man's lunch counters, schools, neighborhoods, country clubs in their quest to be accepted. Once the white man threw up his hands and let you c00ns in, you got all Speedy Gonzalez and knocked yourselves out trying to live up under the white man and his woman.
I remember I wrote a paper on that subject when I was in college.
There were still hood boogers back in those days...but there were also black professionals in these neighborhoods.
So kids were able to see good examples of black folks doing the right thing.
but once black folks w/ the resources were able to leave they left w/ the quickness...leaving nothing but ignorance in these communities.
Thats the main difference in Asian/Jewish neighborhoods.
The people w/ money kept the clowns in check and held the neighborhoods to a standard.
There is no longer a standard in our communities.
