African American (Black) Chicago's Last Hope?

Most of African American (Black) Chicago is in a decline and part of that decline is because of failed (Negro) leadership.

City of Chicago Treasurer Kurt Summers gives me hope. He is one of the last hopes for Chicago’s declining African American neighborhoods.

Most of the educated and successfully integrated African Americans (The Black Bourgeoisie) got paid, and left the Black poor and working class in the lurch.

New visionary leaders are needed to help the poor and working class African Americans create crime free vibrant neighborhoods.

Harvard University researchers found that in Chicago, gentrification seemed to grind to a halt in places where the population was 40 percent black.

Chicago’s Jewish Mayor & The Underclass

Should Chicago’s Jewish mayor impose some Jewish values on the underclass to stop the crime?

 From the book:

The Jewish Phenomenon: Seven Keys to the Enduring Wealth of a People

 

SO, THE JEWS VALUE EDUCATION. WHAT CAN I DO?

1. Build your child's self-esteem

2. Build the ability to defer gratification

3. Choose the best education possible

4. Develop and demonstrate informed and literate habits

5. Create the education expectation

6. Keep your skills up to date

 

 

Nurture the strong ego and self-esteem of the child.

Reduce the impact of peer pressure by maintaining close family
relationships and delaying independence from the home.

Set high standards for educational and professional advancement.

As a community, reinforce those high standards.

Rahm Emanuel can also suggest the reading of his brother's book.

Brothers Emanuel: A Memoir of an American Family

How Does A “Man” Feel Like A Man

How does a “man” feel like a man when his mate (wife or girl friend) makes more money and is more educated than him?

This is one of the biggest challenges facing the African American (Black) community.   This problem affects our families and almost every other aspect of our community.   You know all the issues we have, and most of the problems in our lower income neighborhoods are because African American men are unemployed, underemployed, or unemployable.

“We” need to figure out how the African American (Black) man can feel like a “man” when he cannot “provide” for his family.

Thank you for writing. Sincerely, Barack Obama

Dear Marc:

Thank you for writing.  Every American deserves to live in a safe community, and all our children should grow up with the confidence they can achieve their dreams.  Yet too many families still live in neighborhoods traumatized by violence.  We are making progress toward changing that, and I want you to know I am listening.

Over the past several decades, there has been an extraordinary drop in violent crime, and the majority of American communities are safer places to live and learn.  During the course of my Presidency, the murder rate in the United States has fallen to the lowest it has been since the early 1960s.  To continue making gains, and to support our hardest-hit neighborhoods, we must maintain our focus on building trust and strengthening relationships between police officers and the communities they serve.  My Administration is committed to making sure law enforcement officials have the training and resources necessary to keep us safe, and my Task Force on 21st Century Policing has provided recommendations on how to foster effective relationships in cities and towns across our country.  To learn more, visit www.COPS.USDOJ.gov.

Despite our progress, we continue to see tragic levels of gun violence in the United States, which is why my Administration is taking commonsense steps to keep guns out of the wrong hands.  And I will continue to call on Congress to pass the kinds of commonsense gun safety reforms supported by the vast majority of the American people.

The best time to stop crime is before it even starts.  If we make investments in our children early on, we can reduce trends in crime and incarceration by addressing the challenges that can make it difficult for young people to thrive, especially in places with limited educational and economic opportunity.  We must build stronger ladders of opportunity so all young Americans know our Nation has a stake in their future.  They deserve support to make good choices, and my Administration is working to keep more of our children off the streets and in the classroom where they can gain skills and prepare for success.

Again, thank you for writing.  Please know I will continue doing all I can to make every community a safe place to call home.  I am confident that by working together, we can forge a safer, stronger America.

Sincerely,

Barack Obama

 

In 2016 I mailed a letter to President Barack Obama.   That was the e-mail I received from The President of The United States of America.
