"Blacks Are Responsible For Their Own Condition"

A US opinion poll purportedly shows that blacks are blaming the poor within their own community for their lack of economic advance, rather than racism and discrimination.

It seems to me that the poll could have been conducted in a better fashion with more options given and less ambiguous answers, but even so I am inclined out of the goodness of my heart to take this as an encouraging sign that black people are becoming more willing to take responsibility for the fortunes of their community rather than playing the race card all the time. I shall give them the benefit of the doubt for now.
