I wholeheartedly agree with Judge Gregory Mathis!
He is a very astute, extremely informed gentleman,
and he is zealous in helping people of ALL colors, especially those of us who have been
"put down" and discriminated all of our lives based simply upon our the color of our skins, the texture of our hair, and our facial features!
Gregory Mathis is a stellar person, very well spoken, and, he is an extremely attractive man, also---and I don't mean merely physically, either!
That's my opinion!
Thank you!

This was diligently stated by Judge Mathis. It is great to hear an Educated and Experienced Black man promoting Manhood amongst the Black males in the community, instead of blaming many of the responsible black women that maintain their resilience and determination in rejecting white societies orchestrated generalization of them being either prostitutes or on welfare with many illegitimate children. Identity is the key to a black mans salvation not immediate gratification or avoiding life's challenge. It is not taking the easy way, but the right way.

Judge Mathis is a very bright guy and I'm glad he uses his forum to call out some of the people (of any race) that come to his courtroom and display irresponsible behavior.
On a separate note, yes, blacks do generally have to attend failing schools, but look who has been running their schools and cities--Democrats. Unless they demand better and stop blindly voting for Democrats, nothing will ever change.
