:snoop:A lot of us have simply lost our way.

A lot of our people are searching for something...anything. It’s sobering as hell when you put in all in perspective.
:francis:

The community is lost. so hopeless and devoid of leadership that we look to entertainers and celebrities to lead us and speak for us. Why would a kid watching this spectacle ever aspire to be a doctor or lawyer or regular business man? we don't value those types in the community.

How many of those lawyers and doctors are coming from low income housing ? people tend to admire those who came from the same walk as life as them and then reached back.
Sorry the "community" won't celebrate you're pals who probably have roots from somewhere else and aren't uplighting anybody but themselves, your posts sound like an outsider

The vast majority of black "professionals" I've met are from poorer backgrounds.

I asked a specific thing.
Nipsey is a "black profressional". That is very vague term..

if you say the vast majority of lawyer and doctors come from the projects that would be debunked instantly

So is "poorer backgrounds"

Most middle class black folks are 1 generation away from the hood or came from there themselves. this is an idiotic post. I know black folks who have started schools and folks who own properties, businesses and invested in low income areas. Nobody cares about the work they do cause they are not celebrities. You worship these celebs for doing the same thing folks are doing every day..

Away means not present. Argument done.

Once again, the allure of a Nipsey is going over your head. Unless you're about to be stupid and tell me those folks are still laying ground work in the PJs and employing ex felons while going to their 6 figure government job
