Did you know that companies in the US have said they would hire a white man with a felony record and no high school education BEFORE they would hire a black man with NO criminal record and a 4-year degree? On July 23 at 9pm and July 24 at 9pm, CNN will premier a series,
'Black in America with Soledad O'Brien' and I personally challenge you to watch it WITH your children, especially your sons, if you have any, uninterrupted. The aforementioned statistic and many others will be revealed during the series.
The first day the series will focus on Women and Familes and the second day is dedicated entirely to the plight of the Black Man in America.
You should watch and internalize what you see and hear; no matter HOW disturbing the information revealed.
