I get what you're saying but if white people are going to get the blame they should also be able to have their say.

Jared Kushner Tells ‘Fox & Friends’ That Black Americans Need to Want to Be More Successful - The Daily Beast

Kind of interesting that the title says something that Jared Kushner actually didn't say during the interview. They kind of put their own little racist spin to what he said and makes it sound like he was telling black people what to do.

That's why instead of reading headlines or a liberal journalists spin on something, you should just watch the interview. I can tell from the comments who actually watched what Kushner said and who automatically bought the liberal media b.s.

The interview was regarding Trump policies benefitting the black community and the meeting with Ice Cube regarding his input into those policies. Should the federal government not have policies to benefit the black community just because Trump is white?

Black folks should be the most anti-government, independent and fiercely family first citizens we have given the way they have been treated in this country.

And look at how close this correlates with countries by GDP per capita.



It's pretty simple, both around the world and inside the USA: more money = more opportunity for education, and subsequently, more advancement in life.

There's a very close correlation in the USA between poverty levels and level of education. It strikes me as a circular problem. Are these areas poor because they haven't gotten an education? Or have they not gotten an education because they can't afford to? One needs a certain level of financial security, not only to pay for an upper-level education but to afford to live while studying instead of working full-time. But to gain earning power and subsequently, financial security, one needs a higher level of education - be it a University degree, or some sort of trade school or professional certification. Sure, there are exceptions and success stories, but statistically, people in both poor countries and from poor backgrounds in the USA are fighting an uphill battle.

Relying on government and is a failure.

Baltimore has a black mayor, black police chief, black city council, and black school board. 19 of 39 high schools had only 1% or less pass math equivalency. Is that doing their own part?????

Too many people, including black people are stupid. Doing the same things over and over again and expect different results. That's what losers and fools do.

Get rid of the welfare state which causes people to not stay together and raise their kids. When 70% of black children are raised in a 2 parent family that is a problem. We know that children raised in a single parent family make less money, are less educated, and commit crimes at a much higher rate. Nothing to do with skin color and everything to do with being raised properly.

This country is awash in white poverty, white drug addiction and white male suicide that happens to be at the highest levels in history. White males disproportionately kill themselves at a higher rate than any other group in this country. And I don’t even have to get into the opioid crisis.

But “BLACK PEOPLE!” These folks are obsessed with finding reasons to make threads concerning black folks. And I’m more than willing to bet that they’re poor white people themselves.

The one factor that has the most influence is being raised in a 2 parent family. Those children are more educated, make more money and commit crimes at a much lower rate than those raised in a single parent family.

If one finishes high school, works a fulltime job, and waits until they are 21 to get married and have kids, one will have a 75% chance of being middle class or higher and less than a 3% chance of being permanently poor. That number would be higher if schools made students earn their high school diplomas instead of handing them out.

We “should be” whatever the hell we want to be. That’s what we “should be.”

Family first? Mess with one of our family members and see what happens to you. You’ll be getting acquainted with the staff at your local ICU.

Stop with the fake drama. It's not very manly. It's about being successful and not cherry picking silly data points that have no meaning.

Yeah because the first person I think to turn to on information about the Black community is Jared Kushner -- he's had soooo much experience with that.
