I once dared suggest that blacks in the inner-cities, mired in poverty, would do better by following the example of impoverished Jews who arrived here around the turn of the century - poor and uneducated - as they fled antisemitism in Europe. Their children, just one generation later, were primarily college graduates or small business owners, with starter homes in the suburbs:
1) Emphasize the value of education and make the sacrifices needed to get one, and
2) Do not have children until you are married and can afford them
For that, I was deemed a racist.
