Moderadonna, it's not so much that our generation X is not showing interest, no one is educating them about knowledge of self in America. They don't understand that there are institiutions that are set up for us to fail. To see what I am talking about, please view "Race, Class, and Opportunity" with John A Powell. Also view " Race and who started it" and if you can, please by the documentary "Banished" by Marco Williams. I purchased it on Amazon and it will blow your mind.
@hustlaus Ok, This is my opinion of gentrification. Now, yes your list is complete with wonderful minds, thinkers and doers from previous generations. Unfortunately, between my generation(X) and the ones following, as a whole,our generations are reversing all of this achievement. When one shows no interest in his or her community, it is that much easier for others to come in and take advantage.
@hustlaus {justify our own failures and (history of non-contribution)} this comment tells you everything about john. Hustlaus dont respond to idiots! john came and presented a talking point, and when you came back with substance john went i don't come here to read meaningless lists. LMAO he comment was pointless, vague and prejudice. At what point in this video was someone talking about excuses?
Non-contribution? I guess you never heard of Crispus Attucks, Benjamin Banneker, Paul Robeson, Harriet Tubman, Daniel Hale Williams, Robert Smalls, Shirley Chisholm, Charles Drew, Thurgood Marshall, Barack Obama, The Black Seminoles of Florida, Rosewood, Black Wall Street in Tulsa, Oklahoma, Eli Whitney, Eli McCoy, Jan Matzeliger, Fannie Lou Hamer, Marcus Garvey, Booker T. Washington, Richard S. Abbott, Matt Henson, I advise you read "Eyewitness" by Willaim Loren Katz. and cut the T.V. off!!
