I agree with the guy 100% - especially about the glorifying ignorance part.
I think there is a psychological problem with victim mentality too. If you refuse to take personal responsibility and put it all on "The Man", you are planting a seed in your own mind that you are powerless. If you believe you are powerless than you are never going to do what it takes to pull yourself out of a bad situation.
I have nothing but sympathy for the injustices the black community faces but as a community, they don't do much to help their situation. Many individuals do and then they get shunned as sell-outs.

Only two things are infinite, the universe and human stupidity, and I'm not sure about the former.
