In this episode, we do a deep dive into the reasons why black many students are not closing the education gap. Why do so many black students that attend public schools in the nation’s largest cities fail? What’s the root cause? Is Black Culture the Blame?

Key Points:

• The education gap must be closed before the wealth gap can be closed
  
  
• The breakdown of the traditional black family is the root cause of many of the problems that the community faces
