Racism in the Media

Well today in AVID we had a very intense discussion on racism in the media. For some reason it spurred off of Tim Tebow somehow. When Carney made us watch that video comparing Tebow to former Black quarterbacks, it started something.We were first talking about how Tebow is getting more air for being a mediocre quarterback over the older black good quarterbacks. They felt a since of unfairness among that. I feel like if blacks showed themselves up, other races would repect our culture. I've realized blacks are like no other race. We build ourselves up, have all these movements for peace and freedom, and yet, this generation is selfish and we're allowing the media to dictate how our children want to act. Why do young black men want to be thugs, smoke weed, and gang bang. And girls feed into that. So I think that's why most guys act like that to get girls. And I don't know why girls are so easy now-a-days. There's probably a small percentage of virgins in high school. I know not everyone is doing it, I'm not But I feel like what guys and girls listen to is what they're going to become.
