Fat pockets = empty heart and head...

Geesh Cos, thanks for setting black folks back a billion and one years. If you haven't seen the news, at the 50 Anniversary of Brown vs. the Board of Education, the Jello peddler decided to announce how it's time for those low-income black folks to pull their weight. Hmmm... ok, so all the problems rest on those poor folks, no? How sad. The Cos has lost a few cool points with me for that thought. The finger pointing that occurs amongst communities of color are quite sad. It's the poor ones keeping us down. It's the rich folks that have their foots on our necks. If those poor folks would just get an education and a job, my life would be easier. If those rich folks wouldn't have forgotten where they came from, things wouldn't be so tough. So many explanations for such a conundrum. I guess what I am saying Mr. Cosby is if the solution were so obvious and that simple, there would no longer be a problem, right? I wonder if he realizes how thoughts like that complicate situations even more. As I said earlier, how sad.
