To Canadian(Negro): Yes, this thread should be archived.
and to everyone else: You want to avoid such issues of racism and the such?
Education is the only key. My dad struggled with racism in the 90s as an engineer and had to switch professions (now making 6 figures) but the whole time we were growing up, he always stressed the importance of education.
education...education...education...
and now Im finishing up my degree at U of Toronto (in Molec Bio and Biochemistry) because my dad always taught me and my siblings of how the 'real world' is and that education is the solution to making a good life for yourself and your loved ones.
In most societies, lets focus on N.America, people do have access to the internet and even public libraries, so why not gather the motivation to go to these resources and better yourself? We can talk all day about whats wrong with the AfAmerican population but deliberately keeping one foot (i.e discussing) in the past while musing what the future would look like is just exhausting, i think.
This thread really is an eye-opener but to all the blackanons out there, just work hard, educate yourself and do your best to break the stereotype seen in BET and the media.
