Despite all of the emphasis over the past few decades on illegal immigration, Hispanics have little or no problem integrating into American society. From time to time, the white underclass catches hell because some of its members say and do stupid things. One never hears about Asians. But the black underclass has a dress problem, a physical demeanor problem (head and shoulder movement in a simple conversation), and a slurred or mushmouth verbal problem.

Contrast the black underclass with the black middle class representatives such as Don Lemon, Jerome Bettis, Michael Steel, Joey Jackson, or President Obama. Contrast the behavior, etc. of the black underclass with that of the Hispanic, White, or Asian underclasses. The contrast is quite dramatic and I don't think there is any solution to it.



jerome bettis and president obama aren't middle class....they're rich

the education system in black communities is one of the main problems with black people

black people aren't in charge of sending better curriculum or funding for schools

it's lower class, middle class, and upper class......not underclass...smh
