Phil, I don't think she was implying that. I believe what she's saying is that they're not being honest with themselves or the community. Similar to what Bill Cosby said, that Blacks must first examine what their community is condoning by using the victim mentality. You can not fix something unless you admit that it needs repair. This is true of each of us and society. If we do not recognize or acknowledge our faults, we make no attempt to improve what we souldn't be doing.
