Psychological Shackles

African Americans have been free from slavery for 150 years in the U.S.  Although we have made great gains in every way, there are behaviors and habits that are holding us back as a people. Attitude toward education, family and economics is slowing down our progress. The violence we do to each other every six months is far worse than any year of lynching. We will be discussing how some of our negative behavior is connected to slavery. Behaviors forced on us for approximately 336 years. But we will not be complaining or making excuses. We will be identifying and discussing solutions!
