how do we fix it..

Ok.. so how do we fix it.. black people the same as white and many white town have fell into decay also.. WHY..

becase of lack of jobs.. and the nature of simply low paying jobs... that's a reality to anyone no matter what their color is..

look around.. Shreveport is not brimming over with jobs.. and the jobs that are here are either in the hospitals or at the GM plant and a few others.. and many of the retirement age people are not going to leave their jobs and open that up to the next generation of people..

so the job sector is not functional.. for the city.. regardless what color it's people are.

some people fail to grasp.. not just blacks but whites as well do not prosper when their job scene is just enough to pay rent and eat and maybe provide transportation...
I see many whites in stores with WIC coupons.. and driving broken down auto's and living in various broken communities or trailers either in a park or in a rural area... ins various states of maintenance..


and it's not like they can modify and even improve their home .. when the home is falling down and they can't get a loan to fix it.

and none of these people "NONE" of them black nor white.. want to live and have no opportunities.. and what does that equate to.. in real life..

it means people who are struggling to keep a roof over their head and food on the table.. rarely have the time nor the mindset of hope to even envision school.. as an avenue.. they face daily a struggle just to maintain.. " that's reality"... they may silently dream.. of such but they dare not face that dream for the fear of the obstacles they see real or imagined... but they don't see the avenue of hope.

we as people.. when we get something or accomplish something we get stupid.. and our self inflated self.. does not allow the mental awareness of how deep compassion must exist and go to understand... we just assume..

well I did it ... so can the next.. but what many of us fail to look at .. is the help... and most don't acknowledge the natures of help they get.. they are too busy trying to assume they did it on their own... but no one get's or does anything without help.... but the non gratitude of mind of some will not allow them to give nor acknowledge what of help they have received along their ways of life.. and all the time that help is not in the form of money.. it's in other forms of support... but .. not many can move forth with stigmatizations and condemnations.. we all survive and prosper.. thru .. encouragement... and various realms of support...

but, people rarely know what is compassion and how is compassion and what of depth that it .. exist... and how much of it... is involved in their success...

we are blind to so much.... in our urgency to assess ... and rate and judge those less fortunate..and less of success and those who are in more dire situations.


we have people of all races spend money to look and have things that make them feel they are progressive.... or they have something.. so they connect their self worth to something.. so what sometimes may look like flash and bling to someone else.. may just be what another did or acquired to give themselves some feeling of progress..

we have to look beyond what we look at and learn how to see that we may know how to see that we might actually have the ability of seeing..
