OPINION: The real problem facing Black kids today isn't what you're told to believe
Former President Barack Obama criticized 2024 presidential candidate Sen. Tim Scott, who then responded with his own thoughts on ‘The Mark Levin Show.’previously required reading in Haywood County N.C., opens with a scene where a half-Latino half-White police officer obviously hearkening to George Zimmerman accosts a young Black boy named Justyce. The police officer is portrayed as a menace and Justyce is portrayed as an innocent victim of his rage and racism.
A poll of Black Americans found that when they read a passage by author Ta-Nehisi Coates that says,"In America, it’s natural to destroy he Black body," the percentage of Black people who say they are in control of their lives falls from 83% down to 68%. FILE: Coates testifies about reparations during a congressional hearing on Wednesday, June 19, 2019.
It may be true that books like"Dear Martin" simply reflect in literary form the received wisdom of Black families in the United States. If so, then that received wisdom needs to change in light of the reality that Black Americans no longer face similar levels of racism as they did in the ’50s and ’60s.
Black Americans are more college-educated than they’ve ever been. Our"Black History" courses and our readings that reflect"Black History," however, still primarily endorse the concept that America is racist to Black people.
