“Dear Black People”: Our Responsibility to Our Community

Do we have the courage to look at problems in our communities and say… maybe there is something we should be doing to fix our own problems?

When it comes to poor quality of life issues in the black community… who is responsible? We often blame “The Man” or systemic racism or the others who don’t look like us.  But do we… Black people, have the courage to look at problems in our communities and say… maybe there is something we should be doing to fix our own problems?  In part two of our look at crime and other issues in our community… we’re having a “Dear Black People” conversation.
