I hope that some money is invested in a program similar to the Big Brother program...but instead, its like a Fathering program instead. For instance, young men have someone in their life that's like a father figure that will help them with any issues they have.
There are so many men out here that don't know how to treat relationships or other situations because they didn't have a positive male influence.
I wouldn't doubt that there would be a lot of young men and boys who would benefit tremendously from a program like that.
No doubt. Spidey was the first to flip out. Wait until his buddies get here.
Black girls and women at not at risk as much as black male and latino youths are. I know you're too damn lazy to read, but the write up on the Whitehouse website answers all of your misguided criticisms.
There are also several programs out there for females of color that address issues affecting those communities (teen pregnancy, HIV/AIDs, etc)
Do you really need a reason for the problem to exist in order to accept an attempt to help at risk groups become productive members of society?
Right, it has to be about just politics because you say so. Nobody cares about at risk youth. It's must easier to just sit in my computer chair and complain about them on AT.

I'll bet the people that preach against black gang culture the loudest are the ones that admonish the president the most for this though.

Poor judgement excluding other demographics from the program. Makes the POTUS seem mildly racist. Hell even black girls are not accounted for.

I listened to half the pitch but never heard the real reasons this problem exists.

The statistics are of course true regarding young black males but this program isn't going to change anything significantly...as usual it's more about politics than anything.
