    Black people are the reason black people can't get ahead. Your comment is the exact reason. Accountability.

    The same reason some white and hispanic people can't get ahead. They make excuses.

    Such a loser comment. Honestly just demeans the black people who have worked hard and escaped the bullshit you are talking about.

    So gross.

    Im not a Christian, why would you think I am?

    This is a settlement, meaning CBS probably knows they are in the wrong.

    As for what Trump has done for me, he has obliterated DEI which helps me professionally. I could name plenty more.

    Trump's full go on illegal immigration is pretty nasty.

    Kick out the criminals and leave the rest of them alone.

    I hate when non common sense is being displayed. So frustrating.

    Maga people who are full go on kick everyone out are brainless.

    The playing field is actually tilted in favor of blacks in many countries (affirmative action, lower standards, DEI initiatives), and yet the performance issue remains. Leveling the playing field would exacerbate the problem because it would remove those advantages.

    Assuming we are talking about this problem in the context of the USA (and not globally)... if we want progress, I'd look at family structures (more 2-parent households), more religious participation, and prioritizing education above sports. Jobs programs in urban areas are also important -- people need a purpose and to be able to build wealth... and this will help reduce crime and drugs. We know what does NOT work -- which is making excuses, playing the race card, and seeking government assistance.

    Globally, I think the fixes are similar at the individual level... and if we are talking about majority black countries, then there's a long list of governance and corruption issues that need to be addressed.


    GOOD DAY

    I 200% agree.

    Issue is that you have guys like Anthony Edwards who every young kid wants to be, paying off baby mamas to never see their kid again.

    Disgusting behavior that ultimately, sets in on thousands of kids that its OK to abandon the family ddynamic.

    NOPE that is not what it means, it means that CBS determined that paying a small amount is cheaper than fighting in court for years....this is 100% a money decision, not a guilt one.

    Approximately 63% of black youth in America do not have two parents in the home -- that's a staggering statistic. For whites it's 30% and for Asians it's 19%. There's the answer right there.

    Fathers play HUGE roles in the development of children and this is the #1 issue that has to be addressed if we truly want to uplift blacks in America. We need to pinpoint what is causing the problem and attack it with a sense of urgency. Is it due to impulse control? Financial? Crime? Education? If we can solve this problem then huge improvement is on the horizon.

    So, the illegal border crossers are removed but the visa overstayers are not?

    It is 100% fathers. Loving environment is the most important factor. Instills confidence, morals, and empathy.

    Still shocked the league try to anoint Anthony Edward’s.

    Lebron politics aside… incredible example for black kids growing up.

    Shai might be next up. Married, kid on the way.

    If Visa overstayers aren’t causing violent issues. Let them stay. Again, it doesn’t have to complicated.

    I'm just confused by your standards. It is a crime to illegally cross the border. It is a civil infraction to overstay a visa. Both are illegal immigrants subject to deportation, but you want to grant immunity from deportation to the visa overstays? Why, because they didn't commit a misdemeanor?

    Oh, you just don't believe in the rule of law. Okay, thanks for the clarification.

    Being in a family of two opposite sides. It helps me see clearly how brain dead both are.
