Are you saying this research apples only to America black people? Maybe you could build a time machine and go back a few hundred years to tell our ancestors this African slave thing is a bad idea.

What I'm saying is, all of the problems African Americans have are a product of their history in this country. It's not an excuse for them, just the way it is. Whatever they are today (good or bad) is what happens to a people when they're brought to a country as slaves. I'm surprised that many black people do go about their lives in a productive way, when you think about the fact that somewhere in their family's history there's murder and rape at the hands of slave masters.

Imagine if the scenario were flipped, and you walked among people of another color whose ancestors subjugated your ancestors and treated them like shit for many years after they were freed. You might overcome it but it will always be in the back of your mind somewhere as you interact with them. Or you could just hate them and let it ruin your life.

I think that research is bullshit and so are you. When are you going to kill yourself and make your family happy?
