where we've come from.


<-- read the article first, my thoughts come later.

some twitter responses:

“I think the issue is that he fails to realize that being poor, being black, and being a child each come w/ their own set of circumstances.”

“If everyone was exposed to the same opportunities, who would run the world?”

“It bothers me when people who never had to struggle take authority over the ways to make it out of the struggle.”

“The Forbes article simplifies the factors which can contribute to success and reduces "poor black children" to one category of individuals.”

“Everyone's being so harsh on this man for this article. Why? Because he trying to help the "poor black child" the only way he knows how?”
