Comment by Southern Star on March 31, 2010 at 7:39am: As an educator in the public school system, I believe that everyone should ban together to help all youth become more successful. We need to unite as a society and teach the youth how to become responsible and accountable for their actions. As a caucasian teacher in the public system, it breaks my heart when I hear a young African American tell me that I can't mentor or help them because I am different. My heart and mind are there for them as well as the other students that sit beside them. In order to improve the melting pot country that was created so long ago, barriers need to disappear, teach the culture and keep history alive, but teach love and peace can extend beyond the "black community." Yes, we have a shortage of black male role models. However, if we teach students to embrace change then a role model can actually come from all walks of life. I, too, raised a young man and struggled. I often had to rely on my dad or brothers to assist when he "fell by the wayside". He still has issues of anger because his Dad was not in the picture. He eventually bonded with males outside our race and community...he connected with men and peers that had similar dreams - music. So, let's teach connection with others that share the dream - not just the color of their skin. Sincerity, love, and support can come from anyone that truly has these teenagers best interest at heart. Ultimately, though this support comes from home - mom, dad, uncle, etc.

Comment by Phil Gray on March 31, 2010 at 3:29am: I here ya Money and i'm with ya on the power of community. We as a people have to come together in the community and spread the word strengthening other communities that need a hand. We can't make any excuses about lack of men to support the communities. We have to move on with what we got. I was brought up by women and survived, LOL. Ben Carson and others have survived also. Just bring tha LOVE and commitment to make a change for tha children. One good parent is better than a house full of the wrong black man.
There are programs and committed people doing great work in our communities as we speak. After school programs and recreational activities keeps little Johnny Focused. The mayor in Baltimore just announced cuts in the above programs therefore we have to be more creative in providing these services for the children. Exposure is the Key for all the little Johnny's in our Communities. We also have to continue to raise the bar, we can't tolerate mediocrity. "Just Do it", uh thats not mine.
