I used to think I had an answer but I don't anymore. I used to think if you just got rid of Jim Crow things would get better. Things are better for a lot of black people, but worse for others. I think they need to save themselves. The cycle needs to be broken. The place to break the chain is with the young women. In my heart of hearts, I think the answer is feminism. Instead of being told by the Southern Baptist church and the fundamentalists and the evangelists that the highest calling for a woman is to stay home and make babies, they need to be told that the highest calling for a woman is the same as for a man, go to school, have a career, be a success, make money, give back to the community. Don't have sex with raggedy ass men who think it's admirable to have as many baby mothers as they can. And for the rest of us, don't turn your nose up at a black woman just because she's got cornrows in her hair and fake press on nails and a name like Latoya and a big butt. Judge her by what's inside.
