can u write one to two pages long?

Answer 1

The African American people are in crisis. Families are completely broken, with 70 percent of kids born to single mothers. There is an astronomical crime rate, extremely poor school performance, and the highest unemployment rate of any racial group. There is a thug culture that elevates violence,, misogyny, and accepting incarceration as inevitable. Studies even show black kid's popularity decreases as their GPA increases, which means that parts of the culture sadly value being dumb. Yet against all this, they are being coddled with a simplistic, cowardly message that blames racism and white privilege as the source of all these problems, and sees more government programs as the solution. But the War on Poverty and the 22 trillion dollars spent on it have been a major failure at raising the conditions of black people.

Donald Trump stated, " African American youth is 58 percent unemployed." He promised to "produce" for them where Democrats had failed. He will not blame police for the problem of black crime not will he blame racism for the dramatic problem of black underachievement. Trump says" Let's fix black people to solve black problems." His philosophy is the right one to start the hard process of healing the black community.

Trump's policy to stop illegal immigration will help increase wages and job opportunities for all unskilled American workers, especially the black folks. Many believe that Trump's wealth and reputation will make him a job creator. Trump presented himself as the antidote to the Black Lives Matter movement, which has protested the killings of black men by the police over the past years. He is well positioned to pursue the " Black Capitalism" strategy envisioned by the thirty-seventh president Richard Nixon as the effort " to expand economic opportunities for African Americans by ending discrimination in the workplace, through the endowment of black colleges with federal funds, and helping them find meaningful employment through job assistance programs, and promotion of entrepreneurship." President Trump should make the concession that the criminal justice system has destroyed human capital by contributing to poverty and the problem of unemployment. If he would roll back draconian civil asset forfeiture policies, which he has furthered through Attorney General Sessions that enable law enforcement officers to seize property of persons merely suspected of criminal activity, he would symbolically and substantively return capital to the black community. Trump should acknowledge disparities between the whites and blacks regarding the opioid abuse which was widely viewed as a white epidemic leaving the blacks whose cocaine and heroin battles were never similarly accepted as mainstream addictions. He should craft policies accordingly.

As uncomfortable as the Trump administration may seem at times, it may offer a surprising opportunity for Americans to peacefully end their racial divide - a problem that clearly will not be solved by the conventional two-party polarization.
