Hello friends

I want to acknowledge this tragedy does in indeed exist in the Black Culture...It certainly NOT A RACE PROBLEM. Its a HUMAN PROBLEM. This group does well to help those who are DISADVANTAGED, POOR or some other MINORITY GROUP. Again and again. It is a HUMAN PROBLEM... It has been a HUMAN PROBLEM and few people are talking about this HUGE ELEPHANT  that is laying dead in YOUR NEIGHBORHOOD and in MY NEIGHBORHOOD. Few are NOT TALKING and staying in those dysfunctional  rules in DYSFUNCTIONAL  Family's  just BACK FAMILYS.....it is the HUMAN FAMILY......The black family is not the only family that is Dysfunctional. Is it?

 

Rick
