Why Are You Concerned About Black America:
I am concerned because we have the history of being the most strong and powerful race if we remember, but what has happened to us? where did all this black on black crime come from an how do we stop it? When did your clothes hanging off your behind become fashion? Why does every other word out of a young black male or females mouth have to be cursing?
