Did you grow up poor? If so, there is nothing I will say here that will surprise you.
For the rest us who never suffered the scourge of poverty, I want you to imagine an unimaginative world.
You have heard the term, “angry black man.” Well, why is he angry?
Many days, he went to bed hungry because he may not have eaten in the last day or two. Perhaps the heat and water have been shut off due to lack of payment. Family members are in or have been in prison. Local schools don’t prepare him with the knowledge to compete for a decent job. There is constant violence in the neighborhood. It is very possible that a family member or close friend has been killed.
Can you imagine?
If not today, when?
