I'm an equal opportunity poster.  Tongue

Your opinion on other people's medical care doesn't matter....its private and only applicable to them.

There was no equal opportunity for my family during those times.  Those were dark days.

No thanks.

Maybe. Maybe not. 

Here's an article that speaks about the golden age of HBCU's - an age that is in our past:

The history of HBCUs in America

And here's a chart showing the how the state of the African-American family today compares with that of a mere 50 years ago:

Now, you are far more qualified to speak about the Black Experience than I am. However, for all of the racial problems that had yet to be solved, one thing is certain IMO: in the age that I described in my post, the Black community still had hope for a better future. Black kids were born into homes with married parents. Black parents worked to send their kids to college so that they could have a better life.

The data I've highlighted seems to suggest that the dream has faded for the majority of African-Americans, and this is why I stand by my opinion that there was a time in our nation's past when hope for the future was still within reach.
