[VIDEO] Wow I can't believe she's still around now. Probably been seeing her on the TV talk show circuit I'm pretty sure she was on Donahue once or twice. Wait I don't know if I have any kids reading this, but they would know nothing about Phil Donahue, perhaps if they watched MSNBC in the early 2000s where he returned to the genre.
Regardless this was an interesting debate between Ali and Elder. He does refute somethings that she says, especially about if it's easier for Black students to get into the college of their choice, whatever their grades might be.
Of course what's emphasized for this discussion, fatherlessness. Ali has spoken out about over the years about relationships between Black men and women. She states here that Black women - I might point the finger at young Black women doesn't really know how to relate to the Black man. It doesn't help that fatherlessness affects young Black girls as much as it might affect young Black men such as that soundbite from the late great Tupac Shakur.
He states that if his father was around he probably would be a better son and that perhaps his mother - who I understand had some real issues in her life - probably wouldn't go down the road she had when she was raising Tupac.
This is an interesting discussion worth your time.
