You seem to only be addressing a segment of the Black community, the one that's the most visible and obvious. I'd be willing to bet that in the average U.S. city, you'd walk past ten Black kids dressed in ordinary clothes behaving like ordinary kids, and never mentally register the fact they were Black. Then you would see the one kid dressed and acting like you describe and most likely the first thing you'd notice would be his race.

With TV programs and urban music reinforcing these slaves mentality, millions of Black youths are falling victim to these idol jabbers.

With very few exceptions, TV shows and music aimed at the Black audience are created, directed, produced and marketed by non-Blacks. The mentality you mention is induced, but not self-induced.

Now that the youth are imitating what they see on television, they are misrepresenting an entire group of people to the American public.

You don't have to perceive them in any particular fashion. You are responsible for the way you perceive Blacks, and any other group of people. Society is to blame (if your postulation is true) for allowing the actions of a few to affect the way they relate to Blacks.

This causes entertainers to further promote their lies to the lemmings

How is that any less true for teenagers as a whole? The vast majority of teens are mini-sheeple who don't change much as they evolve into adults. The media is a substitute to thinking for most people.

Up until 2004, Blacks were the largest minority in the United States, a title held for nearly 60 years, but made very little political or economical progress.

This sounds like blaming the victim. Are they solely responsible for their plight?
