HUD Secretary Attacks Black Victimhood

Wednesday, Jan. 3, 2007/ By Ronald Kessler

WASHINGTON -- Alphonso Jackson, the secretary of the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development, says that black leaders like Jesse Jackson, Al Sharpton, and Julian Bond are doing a disservice to blacks by perpetuating an ideology of victimhood.

"They [black leaders] have created an industry," Jackson, who is black, told NewsMax. "If we don't become victims, they have no income. They have no podium."

Rather than confronting real issues that face blacks, African-American leaders suggest that "it's racism that's stopping everything that we're doing," Jackson said.

"They are in the business of making excuses," he said. "White folks have nothing to do with the fact that seven out of every 10 black children born in this country are born out of wedlock," Jackson said. Nor do they have anything to do "with that fact that we have more black males in prison than we do in college."

While racism still exists, "Young black kids are getting every opportunity that they need, just like every other kid," Jackson said. "I think in 2006 to say that everything is the fault of our brothers and sisters of the lighter hue is ridiculous."

Until blacks "begin to focus in on the serious problems that we have in our communities, and begin to try to solve those problems in the most positive manner that we can, we're not helping ourselves," Jackson said.

Welfare ?Close to Stealing'

Jackson said he was reared in a segregated environment in Dallas. As a college freshman, he participated in a civil rights march in Selma, Ala., on March 7, 1965. As he stepped onto the Edmund Pettus Bridge, state troopers blocked his way and unleashed tear gas and dogs on the marchers.

But Jackson's father Arthur Jackson told his son that everyone can succeed in America regardless of skin color. Even though he had been diagnosed with cancer and had virtually no income, his father refused to go on welfare or take food stamps. When necessary, his church helped out.

"Never take anything that you didn't earn," his father told Alphonso. "That's close to stealing."

"I never went to school with my brothers and sisters of the lighter hue until I got off to college," Jackson, a lawyer, said. "But I'm sitting here," he said, referring to his cabinet position, which controls a budget of $32 billion a year. "And I'm sitting here because I believe that the American system might not be the panacea, but it's the best system that I've ever been able to live in."

Black Leaders Making Problems Worse

By characterizing blacks as victims, making excuses for them, and suggesting that they cannot advance themselves without reliance on the government, black leaders exacerbate the problems that blacks face and give them the tools to become "losers," Jackson said.

"I am not going to let the black leadership ? the so-called leadership ? of this country tell me that I am a victim," he said. "I believe that if you work hard, strive to do the very best, things will work out for you. [That] doesn't mean you won't have obstacles ? you will. But we can't keep living in an era that is bygone," Jackson said. "We need to begin today to teach blacks that they can look in the mirror ? and that they have the ability, once they look in that mirror, to achieve."

In his book "Enough," Fox News TV commentator Juan Williams pointed out that blacks who emigrate to America from Africa and the Caribbean are more successful than blacks born in the United States. As outlined in an Oct. 20 NewsMax article, "Juan Williams Called Black Ann Coulter," Williams attributed that to a self-defeating black culture of victimhood, one that says doing well in school is a cop-out and that the way to be successful is to come off as threatening.

Agreeing with Williams, Jackson said, "All you have to do is look at Miami's Little Haiti. The average income of a Haitian in Miami is the same as his white counterpart. They work very hard. But they have not been conditioned that the government owes them something."

Jackson said Africans from such countries as Ghana, Nigeria, Gabon, and Senegal come to the United States. with "one attitude: that they're going to get the very best education and make as much money as they can."

Inclusive Administration

When George Bush became president, he named Jackson deputy secretary and then secretary of HUD. Bush and his wife Laura got to know Jackson and his wife Marcia, a former teacher, when Jackson headed the Dallas Housing Authority. The two couples began to socialize, and their kids would go to the movies together. Laura Bush invited Marcia to join her on the board of Child Protective Services Community Partners, which supports social workers.

"She stood out as a person who wanted to bring a diverse face to Dallas," Marcia Jackson told me for my book "Laura Bush: An Intimate Portrait of the First Lady."

"There are many whites who interact with blacks at work, but in their private lives, they don't," Marcia Jackson told me. "I think that says a lot about them as people."

Alphonso Jackson said Bush has demonstrated the same inclusiveness in his administration, appointing, for example, Condoleezza Rice and Colin Powell secretary of state. The response of black leaders has been to say that Bush made the appointments to garner votes. That "does nothing to support the progress of black Americans, or to recognize how far we have come," Jackson said.

Denying rumors that he is leaving HUD, Jackson said he is working with congressional leaders on legislation to simplify procedures so potential homeowners with poor credit records can more easily obtain mortgages insured by HUD's Federal Housing Authority (FHA).

Minority Housing Initiatives

"One of the things we have found, especially when it comes to blacks and Hispanics, is that if we can get them in the home, they can sustain the monthly house note," Jackson said. "The biggest problem has been getting them in there, because they have bad credit records. Also, many can't make the down payment and closing costs."

Jackson said he is encouraging those who build public housing to create complexes of low density townhouses rather than single buildings.

"That's why I like to use the housing authority in Atlanta as a model, just as in Dallas," Jackson said. "They have 13 public housing complexes. They've created low density townhouses, and if you go to Dallas or Atlanta, you'll see that the crime is down, education is up, people are working."

Jackson is also working on changing rules under the Real Estate Settlement Procedures Act (RESPA) so settlement costs will be more understandable and estimates of costs given before closing are the actual prices charged.

RESPA was passed in response to disclosures in a 1972 Washington Post series of kickbacks among real estate brokers, lenders, builders, title attorneys, and title insurance companies. Many of those practices have continued, often disguised. A builder, for example, may force a buyer to use a high-priced lending company owned by the builder. Jackson did not address whether rules will be tightened to try to eliminate these practices.

Besides helping new homeowners through the FHA program, HUD counsels people on how to buy their first home. Through the American Dream initiative, HUD even provides assistance in making a downpayment and paying closing costs to those who meet eligibility requirements. These programs and the improving economy have meant that 70 percent of Americans now own homes, Jackson said.

"For the first time, we have closed the gap that exists among white, black, and Hispanic Americans," Jackson said. "Over 50 percent of black and Hispanic Americans own their own homes for the first time in this country. Some of the people who never thought that they could own a home, they're owning a home."

As an example, Jackson cited Donna Davis, who was able to buy her first home in New Orleans, and Essie Jackson, a maintenance person in HUD's headquarters. Davis told Jackson, "You know, Mr. Secretary, I have a yard. And I have the thrill of measuring and shopping for curtains in my new home."

More than two years ago, Essie Jackson asked the HUD secretary if he could help her buy a home. He got her enrolled in a counseling program.

"She thought she would never be a homeowner," Jackson said. "Today she is. She has a two-bedroom, 2 1/2 bath condominium, and she's planting flowers in her window. And she came and told us the story."

I agree with much of what Mr. Jackson has stated. And we are all entitled to our own personal opinions. Lord knows I have my own negative thoughts and feelings about some of my fellow Black people. However, as a public official, especially one that's on the federal payroll and getting paid with the (Black) people's tax dollar - he needs to SHUTTHEFUCKUP! Because when he expresses his personal opinions it can be construed as some sort of an official government statement and it is not. Those are only his observations from his own experiences, and they are obviously flawed and limited.

He's the HNIC of HUD, and he feels that if someone requires public assistance they are stealing? The unemployed, underprivileged, infirm and students who are working their way thru college or whatever are thieves? What kind of bullshit notion is that! If that's the case, then cancel the fucking programs and let the people fend for themselves! It's not as if anyone wants the government all up in their business anyway. Does he have any idea all the shit a person has to go thru to get food stamps? What is he thinking?

Besides the fact that his comments serve absolutely no positive purpose whatsoever, these types of stereotypical and racist statements (even when emanating from a Black person) should be considered and treated as official misconduct. He should be removed from his position. (Black) people should revolt.

And Alphonso Jackson should kiss my Blackity Black ASS!!!

...and so true. I was thinking the same thing when I read this article a few days ago. Someone in his position should conduct himself a lot differently. I’m surprised his superiors haven’t commented yet!

"Never take anything that you didn't earn,"

I agree. Let's start w/corporations who get big tax incentives and folks who inherit fortunes. Hear-hear.

And PS: LOL @ Mzuri! And this from a Republican! Preach, girl!

Mzuri:

Come back home. All is forgiven!

Just as Cos made these statements to draw attention away from those rape cases, this guy is probably in trouble.

If I was to guess it will probably be bribe taking or some kind of corruption.

Y'all should have seen Alphonso during the 70's and 80's when he was here in St. Louis. He was a left wing liberal, Democrat, closest thing to a Communist rabble rouser you can get, oh yeah.

All the time he was in Law School and later he taught at UMSL he raised hell everywhere he could.

Then he got in with the professional pols. In recognition of his services he was made City Public Safety Director.

All of the sudden he was a stuck up big wheel. Told folks who knew him in the day, "Don't call me. I'll call you."

Well, you know what happens to a coon that gets up on his high horse.

A maverick white alderman named Vince Shoemehl chose to run against the Mayor Alphonso served (Jim Conway). Shoemehl had an affair in the black community. Conway was low in the polls. Alphonso went to the affair and made an ass of himself attacking Shoemehl (I remember that Conway was mud in the hood because he closed the Black Hospital named after Homer G. Phillips, a crusading attorney who was assasinated in the 30's.

It made all the papers.

When Conway went, Alphonso did, too. He showed how further unbalanced he was. He decided to take on the Black political establishment (I want to say he ran against Bill Clay, but I ain't sure on that)

His career was over when he was finished.

Soon he left town.

Now he is in Washington. He has already embarassed the administration by saying that he awards contracts based on whether or not the candidate supported Bush.

He is mad, a loose cannon and he is probably losing it and will be shown the door soon.

Naturally, I agree with a lot of what this man says and there seems to be a growing tendency to air this dirty laundry and of course the truth hurts. However, the whole welfare system and all of its attending social agencies profit from victimization. They depend on it for their survival; these "haves" make their living from administering to the "have-nots". For example, it's amazing the number of agencies available to tend to the needs of unwed teen mothers. Their smiling employees are there, waiting to greet these young women with open arms. This is what they are paid to do. It's almost as if they are rewarding them for getting pregnant.

When it was HIS tit in the wringer he was willling to be all the Negro victim he wanted.

He made plenty of money from doing it, and kept and got jobs from doing it and now, like the prostitute who is too old and who has found Jesus, he is out condemning the very practices that he once used (and would use again if he had to)

So now you are kicking teen unwed mothers. What should we do, kill them?

And whatever you think of the mother what about the babies they are carrying that didn't do anything? Would you have them die and be born with defects because their mothers are ignorant or in a bad way?

This is why if I ever get to take over I will shoot most of the Negroes over the age of 12. This woman is so bitter, so consumed with hatred of her own race that she will pick the most defenseless among us and hold up one of the biggest pimps that ever worked in government

For shame!

I knew ol blubbering chrishayden would be on deck ready to shed his tears, always eager to express the worst case scenario. If you were familiar with all of the perks these programs provide, you'd shut your fat-ass mouth. I've heard a lot of girls say, "damn" I might as well get pregnant so I can get subsidized tuition and stipends and special credit cards to purchase supplies and free health care and hospitalization and even cars made available to get around in. These were the sentiments of friends of my grandaughter who made me aware of this. I used this as an example of people depending on teens getting pregnant in order to maintain their jobs, so STFU.

LOLOL! Anyway, I'm glad you agree with me for a change, CH. As to Cynique's post regarding the pregnant teens, the point she is making (if you don't mind Cynique) is that the government and the contractors being funded by taxpayer dollars, have created an entire industry that fosters and caters to the condition of unwed mothers and pregnant teens.

Whatever happened to that Black surgeon general lady that promoted masturbation? See, if she were still around, we wouldn't have all these issues with the AIDS and the unplanned pregnancies and the proliferation of gay people. Because everyone would be self-stimulating.

Masturbate people!!! :-)

Another Negro shuffling, conservative. Just trying to jump on the conservative "band wagon". So he can appease his white constituants. "Give me a break". When the police "bop his ass upside the head" then we will see you is hollering victimization.
