This divergence paints a troubling picture of how economic opportunity—or a lack thereof—governs which boys are incentivized to put their body and brain at risk to play. Depending on where families live, and what other options are available to them, they see either a game that is too violent to consider or one that is necessary and important, if risky. Millions of Americans still watch football; NFL ratings were up this season. That a distinct portion of families won’t let their children play creates a disturbing future for the country’s most popular game.

Catching some Hometown Heat for this FB Post
This post on FB has upset my family and people in my hometown. But every word of it is accurate. If nothing else, people will know where I stand. I am no longer willing to be silent and simply keep the peace. If nothing else, people will know where I stand.
“I graduated from a school in In Alabama that was established so that white people did not have to go to school with black people. Thankfully, ACA is more diverse now, but our mascot is still a general who wears gray... and it's strange because in the 90s, the school was moving away from using that color at all in team uniforms, etc. One of our rivals was a school called Dixie Academy that sounds very much like the one in this story.
I'm posting this to remind myself that very real people are traumatized by racism and prejudice every day. And I am also hoping that institutions with racist pasts can discuss and learn from those mistakes.
I attended Abbeville Christian Academy K-12, and rarely heard about why the school was founded. When other folks wondered why the school was 99% white, people answered that some folks just couldn't afford tuition. The story was there, but no one discussed it.
I should say that I got a great education at ACA and loved my teachers and the small classes. The students still share special bonds. But there is this history that makes me conflicted about my years there.
Know history, talk about the stuff that went wrong, and get better.”

Religious scriptures gave us three types of men 1iaphat 2sem 3chem, but the #Egyptians said we can't leave out our #Bros /the #Caucasians so they change the word of #God for their fellow #man only to have them forget and spit in their faces as they did-let's-not-speak-of-it-now- THINGS. There's a really good Vox video about white people that gets into the polling of the quality of their associates/ #friends and in this study they found that about 75% of the the #whites did NOT have a #minority friend outside of obligatory or normal activity, such as going to the store of a minority shop owner or at work/school. now if there's 65% on a good day then where the hell am i. People can't talk about the is no racism if you ignore your neighbors #whiteflight #clutch items in the presence of darker company #culturalappropriation careless inconsiderate #gentrification decades and centuries of #Extremist #prowhite #Supremacymovements Maybe #black people should consider #segreation, for our safety. how cool would a #reservation be. Since #Europeans Mixed with #Africans so much for hundreds of years before they even made it to the #Americas and then more mixing during #slavery, especially in the #Caribbean. the rights to marry outside of their race had been stripped away from #Whitepeople. almost 400 years ago #whitewomen would be the only one punished with servitude for breaking the law, as the #Whiteman didn't see fit to punish those like him, The same laws didn’t apply to #whitemen and many of them took up #Negro wives or girlfriends Seems to me that many white people have black in them it’s just the white is predominate and one day they’re going to have baby born in your Family that is blacker than you're used to and it's going to prove To be more difficult to except for some people in your family so everybody should just get over it now I just marked them selves black on the #2020census #census2020 #elect https://www.instagram.com/p/ByHvoqWFpmx/?igshid=1ichagnv3ro6j

February 28, 1942: A Race Riot occurred in Detroit at the Sojourner Truth homes, a new U.S. federal housing project, when white tenants attempted to prevent blacks from moving in. Eventually, the whites would move out, taking their money, stores and funding. It'scalled gentrification. #raceriots #whiteflight #whitefear #segregation #blackhistory #gentrification #blackhidstory #thingstheydontteachyou https://www.instagram.com/p/Bfvf_kRn8Cm/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=14h6csyd14b8l

White Paranoia and Cowardice Part 1
You may remember the movie, “Higher Learning”. There was the character “Remy”. Remy was the portrayed insecure, lame white male without a sense of identity. Some people may have felt pity for him. I mean there he was in a white public institution and the “brothers” wouldn’t cut him a deal. In fact, most of his white peers rejected him.
Yet, Remy doesn’t react to the fellow white peers who treated him like a weirdo. Instead, he lashes out at the blacks. This in fact could be white privilege. It also, could be in my opinion cowardice.
A lot of whites know that institutionally them or let’s say the 1% has more power. Instead of attacking who is really controlling their livelihood they use Blacks or “people of color” as a scape goat. It’s quite interesting because it does not leave them more empowered. It gives them a quick dose of euphoria and still poor.
Now, back to Remy. He happened to not have any sense of identity or pride as a young adult. Thus he fell in line with an overt white supremacist group. They lead him to believe that the blacks were taking out all they have and leaving them a minority. Remy looks around at all the people of color in the room and realize how intelligent they are. He bugs out in this scene. In the end Remy kills a black woman on a massive spree of? Paranoia.
The black man who found his purpose with his former girlfriend has a wakeup call to the divisiveness on campus...and guess what?? The white public university survives in its same fashion institutionally.
I speak on this because it is truly baffling how one could believe that a peaceful people who have coexisted among each other and nurtured the earth would kill them for merely existing.TO BE CONTINUED...

On the East side of South Cicero Avenue lies vacant buildings and lots where there is no motivation for change. Yet the West side of Cicero Avenue (which would be to my left or behind me) is filled with food establishments and hotels for people who are from out-of-town (even though they are in suburban Bedford Park). Before I left this area, I noticed a lesser-known type of white flight, and is area is already feeling the consequences of it... #chicago #midwayairport #southside #inequality #socialjustice #lovethyneighbor #getactive #getinvolved #whiteflight #communitiesofcolor #minoritiesinamerica #activism #organizing #uspolitics (at Chicago Midway International Airport)

#Charlottesville was nothing new, just a whole new cast of players. i had an interesting talk with some #whitefolks and we found ourselves perplexed to think of a time in #AmericanHistory when #blacks have treated #whitespeople with the same Malice Let's forget about #slavery for a moment and also about a third of #Trump supporters is in favor of voiding amendments 11&up, but besides that, between the #kkk #blackwallstreet #raceriots #segregation #whiteflight #gentrification #Confederate #lynchings hell even the #OJsimpson verdict broke up #multiethnic #friendships BUT WHAT awful thing did black people do to #whites for them to create these organizations of #hate towards us? i guess I'm trying to figure out how people believe the #stereotype that #blackpeople are dangerous? What cuz #prison population? because a bunch of whites packed the prisons with us? thats just not sound logic, that was just pure #racism whoops, IS #RACIST (present tense, cuz it still happens) think about it tho, cuz i trying to think of something so reckless that blacks did to whites, cuz my scoreboard is a bit uneven.🤷🏽♀️ https://www.instagram.com/p/BxeVYLKgKDf/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=16r6xsf6dhbuo
