YR So Many Blacks On Social Media Functional Illiterates ?

Why R So Many Black People On Social Media Functional Illiterates ? So Many Black People So Dang Ignorant Fo' Real ! Social media verifies that the American educational system continues it's downward spiral into the abyss of ignorance & illiteracy. This is seen of course from those that drop out of school but those that earn degrees paying $ 1000's,spending years in colleges & universities but still unable 2 think 4 themselves having poor comprehension skills within the very language they write & speak. No matter what you write or actually speak in video these persons will still tell you about what you clearly didn't write or say. U ask them 2 show U what you wrote or said that they claim U said but you didn't write or say they can't. 2 save face they say U implied ? Then they'll get angry @ you for not actually saying what they claim you said ? The majority of these persons are unable 2 think 4 themselves so only repeat what they heard from some preacher,some illiterate peer or the racist pink media & of course was raised in the racist pink educational system. If educated in the racist college educational system having earned a degree these believe they've received some trumpet of truth,making them an educated fool. I'm told 2 read this or listen 2 that while the illiterate has nothing of his or her own mind 2 show = slave. I'm sickened @ the same time feel very sad 4 people who lack the inability 2 develop who they are only mimic some one or some thing else. This is why the same people can't write something of an original nature nor will they present videos of their own unable 2 articulate,knowing they'll sound stupid unable 2 express themselves in the very language they write & speak. To show their superior intelligence over myself many claim unable 2 read my words or understand what I say on vid,however the racist pinks have praised my writings from the state courts & understood in the Supreme Court, Wash. DC. Words are so clear that over 60 channels terminated on YouTube & again understood in the racist pink's courts of law. Perhaps this is done on purpose as an excuse 2 reject REAL TRUTH. Bragging about how intelligent they are but yet it is also an advantage 2 play the dumb role of which being dumb is something they might believe they're faking but have actually become,sad. Peace & RespectU

In this video, Mario Cortes explores some of the reasons why we have such a high functional illiteracy rate in Australia. This is not to justify or excuse the past, but to move on to a future where 100% literacy is a priority. Since Literacy is a "gateway" skill, it becomes even more important today to be literate in order to learn other disciplines which assume that you can already read and write.
