You can give excuses, or you can do something about it.
Everyday people of color all over the world make strides to improve themselves, so that one day they can have better lives, a better job, a better place to live. They are out there, working hard, never giving up, keeping their eyes on their goal. One step at a time. In the right direction.
Or they can gather together, wring their hands, and make.....excuses.
Btw, their excuses not only pertains to blacks, but to everyone no matter what color. You have stress? Join the club. Overworked? So what's new?
Take that money you spent on that big mac, fries, and coke and eat veggies and lean fish instead. Not that filet o fish crap.
The diet works for the white girl but not the black girl? Maybe the white girl doesn't head to McD's after the diet.
