What are Black boys “going through” at home that Black girls aren’t?
@WES_WorldOrder Still waiting for him to respond but it’s clear he wants Black women to be the scapegoat for the failures of Black men but that can’t be because BY HIS OWN ADMISSION Black women are failing too. Instead of organizing ways we can work together, he points fingers.
People far better educated than I have tried to have this conversation with you, and the same way you dismiss Dr.Curry and Dr. Johnson you dismiss me, and disregard all the data that shows black males face unique challenges from schools and at home that result in failure.
Because baby it’s my time to shine 😂😂😂 let’s compare upbringings and see who did what with what they were given or not given.
@BipolarBastard @Maryam09795349 And my point wasn’t who experiences what more. My only point is that Black girls ALSO experience challenges. Have a day.

Black boys from low income areas are in a perptual state of mourning and survival due to violence inflicted at both the state and personal level. They’re losing close friends to violence and prison back to back. I work with “juvenile delinquents” this isn’t happening to B girls.
You’re only seeing the Black men who made it, not the many who were pushed out, over disciplined, or never given the same chances. They are the exception not the rule. Bringing up successful Black men doesn’t disprove the system that was built to filter Black boys out.
@Lyn_thinks Black women are not incarcerated at higher levels than black men, nor are they killed by police at the same rate.
@Lyn_thinks Black women are overrepresented in prison population(bad), less than 30% of black women get any degree, have low marriage rates, low homeownership rates, high maternal mortality rates, and are lowest in wages among women. By no standard are black women making it work.
This Black woman asked what reasons would there be for black girls to fail in school, I gave her reasons that are literally affecting children right now and she says it’s nonsense. Go look
