Why Are You Concerned About Black America:

I would like to see us do what we can to improve the race relations in our nation, society, and our communities. I would also like to see us do what we can to stop the using the N-word among ourselves, because it has become a problem. The problem is that others think that since we have open the door that it allows them to walk through the door. we all know that when they do that it's no longer cool. But we have to stop the double standards. We as black Americans can make a difference.
