Will there ever be enough payment?

Remember the old saying "Quitters never win and Winners never quit." Once we become young adults of an age where we understand right from wrong, it is time to choose what path we will follow in our lives. It is easy to fail by quitting. It is much harder to succeed through planning and taking the path to succeed in our lives.
Stop crying "I'm a victim of the past", you are NOT, your ancestors were, and given all the research I have done, they were a proud people and would be ashamed of the way Modern Blacks fail to be grateful for all they have. Start counting all the things you now have that if never brought here, you would be without. Start asking these Questions of yourselves, if your Black ancestors were never brought to America what would be different. Keep in mind that America was not the only place slaves where were taken.
Choice? Would you have any choices as how to live your life?

Quality of life? How would your life be different? What would you be without today?
Black Religion? What was the original Black religion or is religion just another thing White Americans gave to the Black community? Did they have a religion before coming here? If so, how many Blacks follow their original religion?
Education? Would you have the opportunity to be educated, to the extent you can receive in America, if you were born in Africa instead?
_ Mortality rate? _What is the life expectance rate in age currently in Africa as opposed to being in America?
Will there ever be enough given to the Black community? Yes, back in history, Black's were slaves and that is a crime, no dought. Since that time, so much has been done to accommodate the Black community that you think that debt would be paid by now. Remember hurricane Katrina? I don't remember seeing one Black educated person stranded or looting. My point is that Blacks have a better advantage to get a good education, if they choose to do so. I have no problem with anyone of any race or color that chooses to do something with his or her life. My problem is with people in general who want to live by means of having everything paid for them or done for them and not choosing to stand up and do it for themselves. Why do we keep giving with no solution in sight? Where is the path to equality when racism continues in the separation of color by the Black community themselves?
