I started school in the mid 1940's. I went to all public schools. In every school I was ever in there were black students. I was even put in a mostly black school in the ghetto for two years as a punishment by the superentendent of the city's school district. All schools I went to were staffed by public school teachers. Whatever I was taught in those schools, black students were taught as well. I managed to obtain a high school diploma. And over the years managed to accumulate over three years of college credits. Everything I was exposed to in the way of teaching in the public schools, the black students were taught at the same time. When I hear or read that crap about blacks having been at a `disadvantage' in school....or `blacks never had the same chance as whites'....thats horseshit! Pure and simple horseshit! The main difference was.....I paid attention to what was being taught! Many blacks spent their time in class sleeping, or didn't show up at all. They spent their days in a street gang in the `projects', or in juvenile detention for skipping school or some petty street crime. If you spend your school years pissing away your time running with a street gang, doing dope and committing petty crimes, its no wonder you can't get a decent job due to not having any education! It isn't a surprise that without a trade or even a decent way of articulating ordinary language, you can't get a high-paying job. How can an employer hire someone to be a high-paid salesperson who's way of greeting a potential customer is; `Hey mufukker! Watcho want!' Instead of; `Good morning sir...how can I help you?' The vast majority of them have only themselves to blame for the circumstances they find themselves in. They had it in their own power to make their life better. All they had to do was pay attention in school....do the work....show every school day....and do what every person who succeeds on some level does to do so; take charge of their own life, get all the education they can while its free, and work hard like everyone else.
