Comment on Diversity in Ohio? Governor apparently not into it. by Clara Simmons

Clara Simmons — Thu, 27 Jan 2011 14:12:44 +0000

As a recent expatriot from Ohio, it is distressing to learn of the lack of concern about minorities by the newly elected Gov. Kasich, i.e. the absence of any minoriry appointments, issuing MLK proclamation for the wrong day, refusal to accept or send representatives to a national minority function in Ohio, etc. So sad.

Comment on Florida contemplating Arizona-style racial profiling law by Peter Urdiales

I totally agree with C.J. Czaia, the road Florida is pondering on taking is a very slippery slope with grave consequences not only to Florida’s tourism but a political backlash. I believe that what is at the heart of the issue is that Hispnaic population will be the majority in the United States and along with numbers is votes. Republicans and the Tea Baggers are fueling the flame of patriotism at the expense of the Hispanic population. I too agree we need to look at immigration and how to best address the issue but not the way State Senator Bennett is proposing. I live in Colorado and I know we have tucked away an Arizona type of legislation that mirrors what Flordia wants to do; if that happens States better be ready to deal with the results.

Do you think the main reason the schools are so bad is because of immigrants?

If you mean Blacks, most of the ones I know watch B.E.T and that’s it unless there’s a game on, or maybe Yo MTV Raps.

I think home schooling is a positive thing to do. So many immigrants are coming to the United States from all over and I believe it is taking away from our kids education. I have a young child and when she starts school i don’t want her going to a public school. I want her to learn and be all she can be.

Comment on Why are there no black pro golfers (other than you know who)? by Clifford Tong

Rush,
I think it is the goal of the First Tee program (http://www.thefirsttee.org) to expose the game of golf to many kids who ordinarily wouldn’t be able to afford it. Then if a person sticks with it and shows some talent, they can join their school team, maybe get a college scholarship, and so on. That still doesn’t level the playing field, but it should help, don’t you think?

It is obvious… black golfers have not put in the time necessary to be pro. It’s that simple…. that being said there are factors why… access to training and facilities are major factors as well as the lack of mentors for guidance.

So what needs to be done, for those who feel this is very important… money needs to be raised to support these players… a golf scholarship for focused players to take it to the next level… only then will you see more black professional players. So who is game… all you need is to give young black golfers 35k a year and cover trainer cost for 3-4 sessions a week.

Comment on Why Diabetes Is Worse for Minorities (WebMD) by Karl Oller

Hello I loved your article. I believe that it is crucial when discussing diabetes to at least point out natural remedies that have been proven to be efficient in controlling high blood sugar. Several natural herbs can be including in a diabetics routine that will help keep a healthy sugar level.

Comment on NAACP passes resolution blasting Tea Party #racism. #africanamerican by Tai Polzin

I was also wrong about the tea party movement until I joined a great site that made me understand it better. I met alot of friends on the site and must say I was impressed with the way they think. I thought they were all crazy people then I found out why they are the tea party movement. It was because they worry about the United States and the constitution.
