This post is comprised of comments in response to the blog post discussing the events that unfolded in Taylor, Michigan. Since the reply could not be fully accommodated in the comment section, I have elected to reprint it in its complete and unaltered form, here in this space.
The writer's electronic signature is also included. This enables readers to choose between adding a comment to this reply in the regular comment section, or communicating directly with the writer, if so inclined.
Thanks!
"The horrid conditions Black males find themselves in are indicative of our (Blacks) lackadaisical approach to issues of paramount importance. With significant portions of time being given to entertainment of one form or another, a false sense of security has spread far and wide. This false security is breached only when something problematic happens personally and sparks us to seek solace from other quarters i.e., Jesse Jackson, Al Sharpton, etc.
In a very real sense we are at war with casualties mounting daily. Just how seriously we see and face the challenges before us will determine our response and lay the groundwork for what is at best a dubious future for many Black males and, by extension, Black America."
