[QUOTE="Box Ox, post: 4541474, member: 48469"] [I][B]"I listened to the protesters, talked with my white friends and read articles and social media posts.

I don't think any of my black friends on here are desperate/defeated and want me to assume a patriarchal caretaker role over them. I understand what you're saying. But they've only been out of chains for about 155 of those 400 years and only had actual equality of opportunity since the Civil Rights Movement of the 1950s and 1960s when real, actual discriminatory practices were outlawed. The problem for black communities is that it's been 50-60 years since then. And they need to face hard truths if they're ever going to move forward. [/QUOTE]
