[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]^^ I think the poster was lamenting on a cultural issue that dates back to that time. Not discussing it over dinner[/quote]

OK - though I am not the one that wrote the below - its sounds like an AA did.  It looks like your reaction is a perfect example of what this person is talking about - you need to fight and prove yourself to make a point rather than discuss an issue in an intelligent manner.  I have made nothing up - just interpreting what I perceive to be a misunderstanding of what this person is trying to express.  Although - I am a bit more optimistic and think it can go away with time and a change in social norms and expectation of future opportunities.

The real problem is African American teens. The mentality that we, as African Americans, [b]need to still fight and prove ourselves like that of slavery days. Sadly it will never go away.

Intellectual Response to idiocy is a waste of time.
Here is the short answer: black people really and truly do not need you telling us what we should do and the so called problems plaguing the millions of different black folk in America![/quote]
