I think most people would agree that there is a very real problem with public education in the U.S. Some feel it is a problem with the system while others argue it’s due to a lack of personal responsibility by both teachers and parents….¬† again – TV Squad:Cosby’s address at a forum entitled “Education is a Civil Right” took on black parents and educators for not setting goals for children or being able to answer their questions about why education is important.¬† Saturday’s speech offered none of Cosby’s past, more inflammatory criticisms of young African-Americans for squandering the progress made by the Civil Rights Movement of the 1960s.In their post on the subject, TVSquad.com asked the question:Has television’s ideal dad aged into an unfunny curmudgeon, a much-needed public intellectual or just another self-important celebrity?Anyone that has viewed Bill Cosby delivering one of his addresses would be hard pressed to doubt his sincerity.
