I can't agree with that. Everyone can't be great. Everyone doesn't have the potential to be great. Some people's potential is 10th grade. Others is a construction worker. Just like in sports, no matter how hard some people work, they just won't be able to be great.

So I can't agree with that.

Well first, define great.

herein lies the issue dc.  the standards we set are societal.  
i do like the examples u use.  just because u don't have a phd doesnt mean yr incapable of being great.  i know shaman who are just as knowledgable.  but somehow greatness is seen as $$$.

like sports some people are born just natrually talented and gifted and are great. see kobe, but i dont respect him one bit bc he doesnt have the same work ethic as mj.

to continue with that line.  i will show more respect to the dude that gets up every morning and practices and busts his butt off just to get better.  even though he may never get drafted.  unfortunately greatness is defined by $$$.  don't give me this championship crap either.  bc if yall told kobe and lebron to play for the league minimum in exhcange for a 3-peat, they aint doin it.  $$$ =/= greatness.

i actually had this debate in one of my seminar classes regardsing feminism.  do they want equal pay or recognition.

but you ask a great question dc.  what is great.

perfhaps your definition explains why you feel like you can't side with my statement.

people are not equal and thats just a fact of life. has nothing to do with race but more so the individual. 
if you act in a manner worthy of respect, you will get treated with respect from everyone (not just white ppl)

Most black americans spend money for short term invaluable items that have no worth, but everything they see around them and are influenced by say they should use their money for items of image. A lot of us are above the influence, but a big majority aren't.

equal we are not, used we are mostly.

agreed

A state congresswoman from Oklahoma who’s been in trouble for controversial statements before is back in hot water. Sally Kern, a 64-year-old Oklahoma City resident, made comments in support of Oklahoma’s recent bill banning affirmative action for government jobs. Some of what Kern said was benign. Some of it, like when she said Blacks just don’t work as hard as whites, was not.

“While discrimination exists, I don't think affirmative action has been as successful as we like to believe,
