If there's a huge conspiracy of racism and "white supremacy" oppressing the poor helpless minorities, why are the Korean, Chinese, Japanese, Vietnamese, Indian etc. immigrant comunities so successful? Why isn't Evil Whitey keeping them down? Could it be that American blacks simply don't value education? Could it be that if you're a studious black kid trying to better himself and learn new skills, you're belittled for 'acting white'? Could it be that the chronic fatherlessness afflicting the black community is because promiscuity is seen as something to aspire to? Could it be that the main role models are rappers, basketball players, drug dealers and hustlers? Could it be that hard work and effort is perceived as being for chumps, and that a real man just scams or steals what he wants? No, I'm sure it's just racism.
