Eugene Robinson - Which Black America? - washingtonpost.com
Good op-ed from Eugene Robinson in the Washington Post. Points out that many in America - especially the media and even some leading black organizations - do't understand that there really isn't a "black America" anymore. The black community is more diverse economically and socially than ever before.
That's probably one reason why so many of these problems have failed to be addressed seriously. The needs and challenges of middle class blacks in the suburbs are radically different than those of inner city poor blacks. There isn't a one-size-fits-all policy or program or message.
