• 1:45
  My next slide is gonna be so alarm maent Okay, So before I got
• 1:51
  this holiday gude together, I wanted to check out and see what's what's the
• 1:57
  world of Afrian American kids in literacy? Guys, back in twenty sixteen,
• 2:02
  do you know that fifty four point nine percent of black high students achieve a
• 2:08
  proficiency reading score compare the seventy six point one of their white counterparts. What
• 2:17
  why aren't our kids up there with them? What are we missing? What
• 2:23
  are we as parents and educated eiders? What are we missing? Now?
• 2:28
  In twenty seventeen, twenty six point one percent of black student demonstrated proficiency on
• 2:35
  a fourth grade reading level, while the percentage was forty six point seven for
• 2:42
  white students. Guys, do you see how low that number is? Now?
• 2:47
  I'm not telling you that our kids need to be sitting up here reading
• 2:52
  a scarlet letter and those type books. I'm just saying, give them a
• 2:55
  book, let them choose what they want to read. You know, the
• 3:00
  number of African American adults with low literacy skills still remained relatively low since nineteen
• 3:07
  ninety two. I was, I was in middle school. I graduated in
• 3:14
  nineteen ninety eight from Garrett Academy of Technology. Go Falcons, But look at
• 3:21
  that, you guys. Since nineteen ninety two, this is twenty twenty three.
• 3:29
  Some of the factors are to improve the literacy rates include increasing educational access,
• 3:38
  improvement and educational quality, government initiations targeting social economic disparacies and racial inequalities.
• 3:47
  Okay, I'm gonna bring it home. I'm gonna tell you what happened.
• 3:53
  One day when I was at work at a public library. Okay,
• 3:57
  I had a mother come in this summer kids, one young man, one
• 4:01
  young girl, young lady. Let's put him on the same space. They
• 4:05
  both were in high school and they were supposed to get their require summer reading.
• 4:13
  They both came in a teen section got their books. The mother came
• 4:19
  to me and said, make sure she gets her book because I know she
• 4:25
  is going to read it. Don't worry about him. Because he's not going
• 4:28
  to read. Excuse me? So when did her education come more important than
• 4:35
  his education? So since for his grade level and his class, he could
• 4:42
  choose any book he won, he walked out. There were three books,
• 4:45
  guys, okay, and guess what. He came back and he said,
• 4:48
  I read this one. It was the hate you get. He said,
• 4:53
  I love it. You got anything else like this? So I gave him
• 4:56
  another book called nick Stole. The girl didn't read her books. So we
• 5:03
  want to change that. We want to up these numbers. So I challenge
• 5:08
  all my readers, my adult readers, I challenge you the same way you're
• 5:14
