I am saying that black people - or any other group - should not get a pass when they cannot attain the same levels of competence as others - in any field.
Instead, they should be given the opportunities to improve themselves, their knowledge base and their performance levels. It will take hard work, but it is necessary to survive in society.
Any time expectations for excellence are lowered to accommodate under-performers rather than pushing the under-performers to strive for achievement, then everyone loses.
As long as the black community - or any community - accepts lowered expectations as their norm, they will be at the mercy of those who can outperform them.
Nowhere do I suggest that underachievement is acceptable for anyone.
You misunderstand.
