text: While I am not Black (I'm Indian), I also think this is a great message, especially for young people of all races in general. One reason is that the media has a tendency of glorifying certain celebrities, athletes, millionaires, etc. with crazy lifestyles, which people from multiple races and cultures are exposed to. People aspire to that, thinking money could and should be made easily as well as could and should be spent frivolously. So thank you, Valerie, for this message, which I hope many others besides just people in the Black community get to see, and hopefully learn from.
