‘Can’t blame White people’ The Memory Train
cannot blame White people any longer.
“It is time, ladies and gen- When Bill started talking
about serious things in the Black community, a lot of Black folks no longer thought he was funny. But he contin- ues to be one of the funniest people around. However, he decided that there was anoth- er message he wanted to de- liver to Black families. I would like to share one of Cosby’s important messages for Black people.
He said: “They are standing on the
corner and they can’t speak English. I can’t even talk the way these people talk. Why you ain’t where you is, and what you drive, where he stay, where he work, who you be? And I blamed the kid until I heard the mother talk. And then I heard the father talk. Everybody knows it’s impor- tant to speak English except these knuckleheads. You can’t be a doctor with that kind of crap coming out of your mouth. In fact, you will never get any kind of job making a decent living.
“People marched and were
hit in the face with rocks to get an education, and now we’ve got these knuckleheads throwing that all away. The lower economic people are not holding up their end in this deal and these people are not parenting. They are buying things for kids like $500 sneakers and they won’t spend $200 for ‘Hooked on Phonics.’ I am talking about these people who cry when their son is standing there in an orange prison suit. And how come you didn’t know that he had a pistol?
“Where were you when he
was 2 years old? Where were you when he was 12 and even when he became 18? And where is the father or who is his father? What about people putting their clothes on back- ward, and isn’t that a sign of something gone wrong? Then you have people wth their hats on backward and pants down below their butts. Even more so, they are walking around with their nasty underwear showing and holding onto their pants to keep them from falling to the ground!
“Isn’t it a sign of something
wrong when a young lady has her dress all the way up to her panty line and has all types of needle piercings going through her body? What part of Africa did this come from? We are not Africans and those people are not Africans and they don’t know a thing about Africa. With names like Shani- qua, Taliqua and Mohammed and all that crap and all of them are in jail.
“We have to take back the
neighborhood. People used to be ashamed, but many of today’s woman have eight chil- dren by eight different (men). We have millionaire football players who cannot read, bas- ketball players who can’t write two paragraphs. We as Black folks have to do a better job and have to start holding each other to a higher standard. We

tlemen, to look at the num- bers. Fifty percent of our chil- dren are dropping out of high school and 60 percent of the incarcerated males happen to be illiterate. Tell the media to stop asking me what I think about people who don’t be- lieve what I am saying or think that I am too harsh or feel that I am just running my mouth because I am old. Sev- enty percent of teenagers who become pregnant happen to be African-American girls.
“So, don’t ask me to soften
my message.” Thank you, Bill Cosby.

Performing with the Detroit
Police Blue Pigs band in vari- ous school systems for nearly 40 years, I can relate to what Mr. Cosby is saying. Howev- er, there are still many great young people who are doing great things. Unfortunately, the people who focus on bad news seem to have the loud- est trumpets. It is up to us grown-ups — not just Blacks, but all races — to set positive examples.
Until next time, I’ll plant U
now and dig U later. Peace and chicken grease! Hugh Burrell can be con-
