"What is Wrong With Black People!" A young black entrepreneur is seeking to spark debate about the state of black culture in society. Is the view of black people biased, racist and unfair in non-blacks...or is there something wrong with in the black community itself that needs to be addressed...or both? That is the question being asked to everyone before Black History Month.
Feedback is requested on this video - positive or negative. Debate is the key... 
"The time has come for black youth to realize the positive aspects of their history and to know there aremore role models beyond Hip Hop stars, Basketball players and gangsters. They aspire to be these thingsbecause that is all they believe a successful black man can be. Just imagine what could happen if a youngman was to realize that it was a black man who invented traffic lights and completed one of the first openheart surgeries. For young black girls to realize that Madame C.J. Walker overcame segregation andoutright discrimination to become a self-made millionaire in a time when blacks had nothing and womenweren't even allowed to vote. We as a people have so much to be proud of, yet barely anyone knows justhow we have bettered society. Even non-blacks have been brainwashed with the negative actions of a select few, that they need to see the positives and the contributions of those whose actions have affected their lives for the better. Enough is enough and the lack of knowledge is no longer excusable. My products are to be a simple stepping-stone on the path to knowledge we all need. Black history in North America is everyone's history!"
