You are responsible for your own way in this life. And again, color has nothing to do with it. Intestinal fortitude has everything to do with it:
Out of the night that covers me,
Black as the Pit from pole to pole,
I thank whatever gods may be
For my unconquerable soul.
In the fell clutch of circumstance
I have not winced nor cried aloud.
Under the bludgeonings of chance
My head is bloody, but unbowed.
Beyond this place of wrath and tears
Looms but the Horror of the shade,
And yet the menace of the years
Finds, and shall find, me unafraid.
It matters not how strait the gate,
How charged with punishments the scroll,
I am the master of my fate:
I am the captain of my soul.
Intestinal fortitude is not why whites have what they do. Laws depriving others of opportunity is.
Bullshit. What law prevents you from excelling that my daughters are privy to and you are not?
