    I'm sure there is something. But the article is about kids from broken homes. Do you think the behavior of kids from broken homes has changed much since 2007?

    I believe you mentioned black history month? So now we are discussing the issues concerning blacks that no one hears during BHM so we can all stop assuming. And since blacks live all over the world, I included issues going on in the UK.

    Well black history month in February is specifically geared toward black Americans.. Black Brits and canadians have the own BHMs...

    And i don't know about you, or the kind of news you get in Puerto Rico but black crime nor any crime for that matter stops during BHM... AND if it's on the NEWs? It's not HISTORY... SMH...

    Good Lord I know your teachers had a good time talking about your slow behind when they were in the teacher's lounge...

    Then let's call it BAHM so we no longer have to assume. And a milli-second after it is reported it technically becomes history. Good grief man, try thinking outside the box.

    Unh-huh. Booker T. Washington and Frederick Douglass, both of whom were part White, were mistreated by the AA community.
