By the way, Cosby is part of the problem, not the solution.

What he says is facually correct, but his rhetoric serves no practical purpose. It only enrages the poor Blacks he criticizes, who see him as some rich guy with no insight into their existence, and no real concern -- other than how it makes him look, as he is also Black.

If he was truly concerned, he would be devising, and implementing, creative solutions to the problem. But since he has no clue, he cannot do that.

He is embarrassed by the condition, and lashes out against it in such a useless manner, because it believes that will distance himself from it. But it won't. It only makes other people ask, "Why, as a wealthy Black man, do you do nothing for your own people? Are you no better than the so-called Black Leaders?"
