he's a bad rhetorician...he made a good goal sound stupid.
NOLA had the largest concentration of college educated african americans in the entire nation, before katrina.
there's something unique about that...for a kid of any color to see the people around them value education is something that helps encourage them on that path.
not to mention the musical culture of the city, which had heavy contributions from african americans...
NOLA wasn't a city without issues. but it had some unique contributions to make to African-American culture...and i'd hate to see that get lost.
