I'm not saying race relations in this country are horrible like they used to be, but the people on this board crack me up. Have you all ever lived in mostly Black neighborhoods before? Probably not. The schools are the ****tiest in the country. There are almost technical no jobs available so skilled workers move out, which in turn makes the few businesses that were there have to move out or close down all together.
There's almost no investment in these neighborhoods. That's why a lot of them are so depressed. But America gets so surprised that a person, like Floyd Mayweather Jr, would come from one of these neighborhoods and be angry. It's ******ed. You think just because ***** is President that all of this changed and all Black people will forget the neighborhoods that they came up in?
Keep in mind, I'm not saying things aren't improving, but I am saying that it's easy to come from middle class neighborhoods where opportunities are readily available and then wag your finger at the way someone who comes from socio-economic disenfranchisement acts. It's easy to criticize something you haven't experienced.
Or do you think all poor Black people in America deserve those circumstances?
