He doesn't acknowledge the invisible brothers who take care of business in the community. <br /><br />He spends most of his time bashing black men and telling us how we're monsters. Then he presents some simp brothers as a "good man". No, the good brothers are the ones who are totally ignored until Black women need a man to be a substitute father for their kids and an ATM machine. He never gets his emotional needs met, or seen as a valuable person.Shawn Jameshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11712216572467743626noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5121130217304877410.post-37879536970116159132011-12-20T00:04:35.261-08:002011-12-20T00:04:35.261-08:00Ironically, your plea is exactly the plea Tyler Pe...Ironically, your plea is exactly the plea Tyler Perry presents in his films.

I once had a highly educated friend who passed up a really good guy because she found him "boring." Her own son became psychotic and I think her expectations had a lot to do with it.<br /><br />That's the problem, and it's a severe one, a destrucdtive one. Now what do you propose as a solution. You've begun by telling us that AA's need to wake up to this knowledge. But you're unusually good at positing solutions. This is a superb blog. I'm hoping you weigh in now on a number of specific things we can do to end this madness.Francine Crafthttp://www.francinecraft.comnoreply@blogger.com
