		<description>Our education is forever doomed until we get over saying that doing good in school is considered negative, "nerdy" or "acting white".  That is the NUMBER ONE issue for black education... Until this is solved then everything else is pretty much usesless.  All the money in the world can't help a school where the majority of the people don't care about learning.  Asians take pride in being smart...  Their women WANT the smart nerdy man...  Black people on the other hand are ass backward in this regard.  Our smart people are riduculed and exiled when they do well in school.  Black intellectuals don't really get to come out of their shells in many cases until they go off to college.  Then people wonder why the people who were ridiculed or teased all through grade school for doing well don't reach out to help the people who chose to piss away their opportunities.</description>
