- Discussion: Do Black People Really Care About Closing The Wealth Gap?
I agreee with the comments...but we have to be realistic...it won't happen with those of us who are college educated, live in the suburbs, etc... the wealth gap is inherent in the hood where 'lack mindsets' got to have what I see now exist. That's not blame. That's a welfare, slave, mentality that still exist. If we could teach people behaviorally that there will always be more than enough...and not have people buying into media hype that they are 'nothing' without the latest and greatest..that's where change starts. Two really good books that are out there trying to bring a message.... Brainwashed by Tom Burrell (From the Burrell agency in Chicago) he's trying to get us to understand that the hype is what has killed us in terms of wealth. People can't save if they don't think they have enough to save or that they won't be seen as being in the upper echlon or 'celebrity got it going on status, unless we change peoples mindsets. The other book is, 'Lack Does Not Live Here' and its all about HOW to get people to think differently and see that there is always more than enough. Our parents and grandparents were able to save and that didn't have nearly the access to resources and money that we have today. What they didn't have was the media throwing images at them that said they weren't valuable unless they looked like, dressed like, drove like, talked on a phone like, smoked like, drank like...you get the picture.
