I’m biracial. I’ve been to majority black and majority white schools because I moved around a lot. At the black schools the teachers honestly didn’t seem to care whether we succeeded or not. So many of us were dealing with behavioral issues and were growing up too fast because of our home environments. When I went to a white school I thrived and was always in gifted and talented, listed on honor rolls, and I tested out of my classes and was put into AP and advanced classes. As a kid and a teenager I didn’t realize how much of an advantage it was to go to mostly white schools. It wasn’t because they were white, it was because there was an expectation to succeed, regardless of color. My white teachers actually looked me in my eyes and told me I was smart, that I was doing so well, and they insisted I be around students who were doing just as well (and therefore placed me in advanced classes). My black side of my family are well-educated and went to private schools where they thrived (beside white people). My white side are uneducated, unsuccessful, and don’t have the desire to ensure their kids do well in school. It IS cultural, but any person of any color can embrace that culture.
This comment is so true. I grew up as neighbors with my cousins, my father (who married into the family) valued education, my aunt who was single didn’t. We’re all white but only one house has both kids that have moved out, I’ll let you guess which…. And that’s just a cultural difference between households in the same damn family
I unfortunately think you are wrong. Blacks as a group are lagging behind in every country. This isn't specific to black American culture. It's universal. That said, hopefully we are before all, individuals with our own individuality that goes way beyond group identity. Whatever the racial background, there are great and less great people.
@@MarkScott- You are lying again... A lot of the people I knew that were put on a d h d meds that were white were later told they never needed it... You keep being a good white boy though.
I was, got prescribed a high dose of vyvanse, it destroyed my mental and physical health I lost a ton of weight. I got hooked on it and finally got off. Best decision I ever made I just make healthy life choices now. No meds.
Dr Ben Carson is the best example of having a mother who made him and his brother read books daily, write book reports on their readings and yet she couldn’t read herself.
@@BrianCindricI can see that. She’s even admitted herself that she’s a diva and got it from her mother, who’s a classically trained opera singer and are the original divas.
I do NOT believe that a country that believed in education to the point that is became MANDATORY for children to attend school would intentionally sabotage that very effort & system. Personally (as a psychologist and parent of four boys educated in the public school system), the government NEVER took into account that a child's home life would NOT support that child's education. THAT is where public education fell down and failed the very children they wanted to help to be the best.
But then they can’t be special little victims They can’t make it about themselves which gets absolutely nothing done Same with policing If you point an an issue and diagnose the issue incorrectly The issue never gets resolved
@@jackshepherd93Nobody’s playing victim, everybody always has an input on the black race but never have a solution. A white psychiatries pointed out how it’s a difference between his black and white students, how the whites actually have these diseases and blacks don’t yet they get diagnosed.
As a Neurologist and a white woman, if you deny that institutional Pseudoscience, Pseudo-psychology, systematic racism, and institutional didn't have a generational negative impact on the black community throughout decades and are the snowball effect of today's problem. It was never all people in the time who were discriminated against based on economic factors. These factors can include job availability, wages, the prices and availability of goods and services, and the amount of capital investment funding available to minorities for business, including policies and practices that exist throughout a whole society or organization that result in and support a continued unfair advantage, harmful treatment of others based on race or ethnic group. Centuries of discrimination in public policy, financial practices, and societal norms that limited Black wealth accumulation have not been overcome and will require broad structural changes to rectify the long-lasting impact of inequality.
Baltimore schools are paid crazy high between 20-30k per student. And hardly any of the students are up to their grade level in math or reading. Funding for the schools isn’t the issue.
@thebenc1537 Certain dogs, not breeds. The similarity is the power of grooming, but humans take an extra hit with our susceptibility to indoctrination.
@thebenc1537 I knew a girl growing up who had a desire to read every book. She is now super successful. Her brother took nothing serious. He thought it was funny to be stupid. He's dead from drugs. Same parents, same household, same neighborhood, same school system.
I came across these four amazing men when they posted about Prince performing at a superbowl. I had NO clue to their public or private views. I simply loved that they expressed themselves (after watching a few more videos) after considering all sides of N issue. God bless you wonderful gentlemen & may fortune shower down on you!!
There’s nothing the school can do to undo the conditioning done at home. I’ve seen it firsthand. Someone at home has to give a damn because the teacher can only do so much.
It can be both. Incompetent teachers who either don’t care or are at the mercy of teachers unions combined with a poor home life/culture is a toxic combination.
As someone who did poorly in highschool (and below) I can testify to the fact if you don't study and do homework or pay attention in class, you will suffer for it. And what does culture say about school? Only nerds care and try to get good grades. I know there are institutional roadblocks that black people faced in the past, and they should be addressed. However, in modern times, you cannot tell me that the black community favors scholars. Every black person I met who was intelligent and studious got made fun of by other black kids for being 'too white' and shit like that.
Great video! Interesting video and discussion. As a teacher this interesting to listen to. We don’t have much diversity in our high school in China and this is very informative. In China, parents don’t recognize mental health problems here. Looking forward to Can’t Fold!
I thinks it’s awesome to donate, but the video hasn’t been up long enough for you to finish it, let alone call it great! I don’t doubt it’s great, it just seems a bit weird
lack of fathers in the household is a huge problem. The state gives an incentive to NOT have fathers in the home by incentivizing single mothers by giving them $$ if the fathers aren't in the home .
Absolutely in elementary school I was "diagnosed" with adhd and was put on Ritalin but my mother realized quickly that having me on that was the wrong choice and took me off of it because she understood that I was just a child being an energetic child 💯 💯 💯
Or that you didn't actually have ADHD🤷♂️. Did that ever occur to you? Or that you just didn't react well to the medication or she just didnt want to put you ob something she thought might have been to strong for your age🤷♂️? My mom and dad would choose not to have me and my siblings certain medication that might help with an issue because of them not liking the side effects or it being too strong for us at that age...............so yea🤷♂️
Many people are misdiagnosed due to there being so many fakers, but it is a real thing unfortunately. (Speaking as someone who has a father and two siblings with ADHD, it's sometimes genetic. I got my autism from my mum)
My 1st grade daughters teacher came to me about my daughter having a hard time paying attention and staying on task. She goes to a majority white school, maybe a handful of black kids in the school. My daughter is 1/4 black.. but she doesn't look it at all. I'm stuck not knowing what to do and she asked me to fill out these papers with the doctor and go from there. I don't want to put her on medication but I'm scared that my own biases are going to hold her back. What if she needs it and it could help her? I want to do all other options right now because I really don't want her on medicine but I want her to thrive. Idk what to do. I'm praying about it. My husband is mixed and went to a all white school and is biracial 1/2 black and 1/2 white but he takes after his mom and you can't really tell much with him. I don't think it's race based.
Well obviously ADHD is a real thing and I'm sure that there are plenty of cases where children who actually have it get put on the medication and it actually positively benefit them but in my particular case I believe that I didn't actually have it, I think I was just an energetic child that didn't do well with sitting still and paying attention in class when I was in elementary school. After being told by my teachers that I was having these issues in class I think she was just trying to figure out why I was having these issues and was told I had ADHD and that they wanted to put me on Ritalin for it so she did but for whatever reason when I would take it it would make me just zone out completely and just overall had a negative effect on me (in my opinion probably because I didn't actually have ADHD) so she chose to take off of it and sure throughout my elementary school days I was just unable to focus for whatever reason but I still never failed a grade until 10th grade, but yeah I'm sure there's a possibility that I did have ADHD and the medication just had a bad side effect on me that she didn't like but I still believe that a large portion of the children given that diagnosis and put on the medication didn't actually have it and were misdiagnosed whether it was intentionally or unintentionally
I am a huge advocate for junior colleges. I went because I wanted to live at home and save money. I transferred after two years, finished my BA, and went on to a successful independent adult life and career.
Dr. Umar speaks about the vast majority. The problem is a lot of people cant take themselves out of their personal experiences to see the bigger picture.
The lack of emotional maturity in this video is why its so important for black people to know their history. Everything this man stated was facts and can ve easily googled!! They cannot be this brainwashed and whitewashed
I'm totally amazed while watching this video. They're not even interested in listening to understand what he's talking about but just quick to respond emotionally to the facts being presented. They're like a bunch of teenagers waiting to argue about facts without research. That's sad😢
People like Umar and Nick Cannon are racist, plain and simple. While they are exposing crimes of the deepstate, they actually serve their agenda because they use White people as the scapegoat and keep the focus off the ACTUAL predators behind this mess.
The school system has been a failure since early 2000's(No Child Left Behind) and it has failed all children(they didn't discriminate) I take the responsibility for what happened to my children and it haunts me to this day. I was a full-time single parent due to divorce and I was trying my best to raise my children. The system had me fooled for a long time and by then it was too late. Also when teachers "lost" (by design) the ability to control their classroom. At this point they have let our children take control and aren't required to show self control. Both my Daughter and Son(both white) went through the special ed department. This man speaks the Truth(and the eugenics against the blacks). This is by design which we can see for ourselves what has happened to our society. My Son was abused by the system the most ,he truly had learning and behavioral problems but the school system done him so wrong. Not only the school failed him so did the medical profession , by design. I also failed because I trusted the professionals. I never had malice towards my son unlike the system, which I truly believe wanted this to happen.
Nick Cannon: I was held back in school. Nick Cannon 30 sec later: I was given the opportunity to excel in school, and I did. I think the problem is that in US you have (basically) zero clue about what goes on in the rest of the world. And I get it (to some extent (but not really))... why would you care about anything that goes on anywhere else...? Well... This very same shit is happening globally, regardless of skin color. He should just be glad he had someone to stand up to the establishment on his behalf - most aren't so lucky.
This ain’t a racial thing brothers. He made great points, but it should not have been made about race unless they’re being targeted with evidence to back that. I know plenty of white dudes with these same problems in school. Overly active, not paying attention, and not wanting to follow a teacher’s instructions(all are things that I did in school).
Yup. It shouldn’t be made a racial thing. People making money off of these drugs don’t care about white, black, brown. All they care about is if they can make money off of them. Looking at a positive, at least we know they don’t discriminate like some of us do out here. 🤦🏻♂️
People like Umar and Nick Cannon expose crimes of the deepstate, but they actually serve their agenda because they use White people as the scapegoat and keep the focus off the ACTUAL predators behind this mess. They are wicked racist.
But it is about race and he gave the statistics to back it up 15% of white boys 17% of black boys diagnosed. If black people are 12% of the population and 13% are black adolescents this would mean that 17% diagnosis is disproportionate and this is what you all who are crying it's not about race is missing.
I appreciate you including the first ten minutes before the "bad part" because not everything said here was wrong and I appreciate the full context. It's important to remember how many things we agree on when calling out the things we disagree on. It promotes better unity between all parties.
thats the bittersweet crap sugar coat he used...After 10 min. He talk such a nonsens bs that even a cat & dog notice it..That race nonsens alone is such a absolute fail and come from diff. idiotism sh... ...and even hard core WW2 germans angle crux believer whould role there eyes or even worst, they would praise him...
30:00 In middle school a black kid stole my drawing. I asked the teacher (white) can you get my drawing back? Teacher said, " can't you draw another one?". There was a Arab kid that kneed me in my nuts and I gave him a two piece and laid him out. My history teacher was a Black guy ( ex marine ) didn't send us to the office he just made us do 50 push ups. Some of the kids in middle school black and white that would take the teachers stuff and throw it out the third story window wouldn't get in trouble. The little white lady was scared of the kids. After a while she just gave up trying to teach us. I didn't learn crap in middle school because of it. I think things that happen are based on the teachers themselves. In 3rd grade I used to get in trouble for talking a lot, so the teacher ( white ) made me do writing punishments a lot. She told my 4th grade teacher ( black ) that I talked a lot. My whole 4th grade year I sat in the corner with my desk facing the wall. I was one of the few white kids in the class. I do believe if the rolls were reversed, I was black and the teacher was white in a white class it would be considered racism.
Dr Umar is fucking dead on about schools, reading, IEPs etc! The school almost flunked my son in kindergarten bc he couldn't IDENTIFY the letters but could sound them out, what idiots bc 2 years later when his classmates struggled to read, he was reading at 7th grade level!!! Huge factor....CLOSED CAPTIONS were MANDATORY when I allowed them to watch tv - which was only Little Einstein's until like 2nd for my eldest grade!!!
I love you guys, you are leaving a big footprint in our history, never stop what you are doing. You don’t have to fight a war to be an American hero. Thanks for what you do.
Not gonna lie but in the 3rd grade I knew how to behave. I dont think using the excuse of "hes in the 3rd grade" is helping in any way. Medication is beneficial if the person actually has a need for it. My issue is they throw drugs out to quick.
Whether he actually had ADHD or not doesnt have to do with smarts. Its kinda insulting that he sees him not being on ADHD medication as contributing to him succeeding and not him just being smart enough to do it. People with ADHD and even those on the medication are still able to succeed and outsmart some of their peers. Having ADHD doesnt make you lesser, no matter your race, and thats disgusting to presume that. Also they just sound ignorant to the topic they are talking about. The medication doesnt force people to pay attention its to HELP them focus. Whether they do or not will just be more in their control and not their brain making it difficult.
The entire psychiatric field is a scam. Look up what seratonin does and how that scam got started. Nobody has ADHD. Thats just Big Pharma labeling normal people so they can sell them drugs. Take all those ADHD people and make them run a full marathon. See how many are hyperactive after that! Exercise is the answer not drugs.
Dr. Umar said a lot of things about the condition and culture of boys in our society black and non-black. He also said that it starts in the house but he did say that the system and predominantly white women are the ones reporting and dealing with these young boys. He never just blame white people and said that the issue of ADHD was exclusively for black boys. But there's like some inherent need to disagree and focus on him saying that black boys are disproportionately affected. So instead of listening and understanding his perspective, all everybody wants to say was I'm not black I was on Ritalin it's not a race issue. When in fact, there is an issue of race that comes into play.
My nephew is white and was diagnosed with ADHD. My SIL has been able to home school him and avoid the drugs. He's doing really well. We grew up in with kids that were drugged up to the eyeballs and they seemed to cause more harm than good. My brother didn't want that for his son. Not everyone is able to avoid the system.
This is exactly what the government wants people to focus on race rather than the actual problem, me personally I took what Umar was saying as in a specific subject in the black community I don’t think he was saying that it’s ONLY black people, cause he speak only for the black community, he didn’t start mentioning race yet and y’all were already saying “well it’s everyone not just one race”, and that’s actually the problem, more people are focused on the “all” rather than the problem itself. Black people get discriminated, “BUT ALL OF US DO TOO!” Nobody says, “Fix discrimination” and that’s y we ain’t progressing nowhere everyone think they are in the right and nobody moves forward.
Just looking up statistics would allow you to realize what Nick is saying is true. I work with kids and the minority children are overly diagnosed, with ADHD. They are put on medication, and trainings…. Please I urge you to look into psychiatric treatment, and children and adolescents. He’s talking about the manipulation of the SYSTEM, he’s really not talking about race. Your friend in the black near “can’t fold” seems defensive and mad for literally no reason. He’s trying to tell y’all, it’s a scam and the schools are cheating you. This isn’t a “hot take” he just didn’t want to hear it.
I was saying the same thing to myself while watching this. That guy was emotionally out of control and always wanted to respond without actually listening to understand. They should rather invite Dr Umar for an interview and ask him these weak questions and arguments that even I from Ghana can easily answer.
My daughter is 13 but struggled for a couple years in school. With her grades and was constantly distracted and had problems with her writing, and organization. She was getting bullied and depressed. I struggled with putting her on meds. She was diagnosed with disgraphia and adhd. Because of her declining grades and her mood we made the hard choice to put her on a med for her adhd. It has helped a lot. She's doing much better now. Yes, we are a white family. And we have been very involved with our kids and their schooling. So for people to Blame parents for bad parenting if their kids need to be put on meds is not right. I do love you guys and your videos.
Dr umar is talking on another level and these brothers are not willing to listen and hear him out . They’ve already made up their mind be for the video started because it’s dr umar. He keeping it real they just in a sunken place. Y’all didn’t even finish the whole video to hear him out smh
My teachers tried to get me diagnosed with ADHD but my mom wouldn’t hear it. So I got diagnosed in my 30s and when I finally took medication for it my life improved 100%. I’m glad I had to figure out how to live without medication first though
Let's not forget that in every system, even schools, if someone is treated worse because they are black, it's a lawsuit waiting to happen. Every system, in today's American culture, fears THAT lawsuit.
59:25 he’s not wrong, my brother and sister-in-law (both white) had three kids together, never got married and they never both ysed their actual home address so she could get WIC, food stamps, and other government help for being a single mom. People work the systems, despite being in love. It’s facts.
It’s like y’all can’t comprehend anything he’s saying 😭 that’s sad it’s like y’all are so in denial these things keep saying “ huh “ “ what “ he’s saying basic info we should know already 😑
I usually don’t comment on YT videos but I feel in this one the guy with the glasses was the only one keeping it 💯 and keeping an open mind about the dialogue. I feel like the others already had it in their heads that they were going to disagree with Dr. Umar so they weren’t looking at a lot of the topics objectively. Especially, the other guy in the front w/o glasses. A lot of the stuff Dr. Umar said in his conversation regarding education was accurate especially the section regarding special education. It’s ok to discuss data based on demographics especially if black children (boys) in particular are the focus of the conversation. That doesn’t mean that other races aren’t affected.
People like Umar and Nick Cannon expose crimes of the deepstate, but they actually serve their agenda because they use White people as the scapegoat and keep the focus off the ACTUAL predators behind this mess. They are wicked racist.
In kindergarten they tried to put my kids and grandkids on medicine for ADHD I said no and my daughter said no they are fine now and yes they are white children
In his defense, he only is focused on black problems no other races. Saying that, you shouldn’t expect him to talk about other races when he is only focused on the black community. (The community with the most problems).
I am 67 yo white woman, who was not "diagnosed" with ADHD and therefore not medicated, probably because that wasn't a disease back then. When I was 22, my Mother and I went to a craft fair and a woman said she was a former 3rd grade elementary school teacher of mine. She said I was a good sweet girl, but "figgety" as a child, and that I also liked to talk in class. She said that several times during class I would stand up, twirl around, then sit down. I don't recall the twirling, but I recall that a couple times in 7th grade, I stayed after school to write " I will not talk in class" until my Father picked me up. After the 2nd time he said I have to pay attention in class and stop talking. Those writing exercises and Dad's advice had worked. My disruption days had ended. As an adult, ADHD was the latest "condition" applied to "figgety" disruptive children. I wondered if I was ADHD. Afterall, as an adult, whenever I found my mind wandering during business meetings or a conversation, I had begun pinching my leg in order to focus. I have to wonder how medication would have affected my life. Would it have clouded my sweet nature, creativity, memory, and intellect? Would I have been successful and attained my comfortable lifestyle I enjoy? I'll never know, because I had teachers and parents who were not quick to label me anything but "figgety" and outspoken; who trained me with love, understanding, and discipline. Some children are just plain "figgety", or spoiled, or need attention for other things going on in their life that they can't verbalize. Medication isn't always the answer.
Why does the color of skin change how 10 year boys typically behave though?? Way too many boys are diagnosed, regardless of their skin?!? I'm so confused by this..
First of all, Nick Cannon thinking he was the 3rd smartest kid in the entire county is hysterical. 😅 Second though, schools do get extra funding for kids who are diagnosed as special needs because they have to spend more on resources for those kids than non-special needs kids. But special needs kids come in all different colors, not just black. What this doctor is saying about mental health and the pharmaceutical industry is 100% correct. But he's wrong to think that this only affects black kids.
Dr Umar has always come across to me as someone geniune in his fight for black people. Specifically, black boys. People always criticize him for making money as if he's not supposed to make a living.
im 32 to now but i got told back in high school that it would be harder for me to get into college because i am white and that the colleges look for more diversity so if i wanted to get into college i needed to at least have a 3.5 gpa and then get told that my close buddy only needs a 2.0 or higher to get in.. My highschool teachers were the ones who had told me and many more this is how life will go for schooling
You do realize that on one hand they misinformed you and on the hand they made it this way because the racists system says black people are inferior and need a headstart when it has been proven time and time again we do not need a headstart, we just need to be treated fairly.
Check into these statics and do a show on it. Look at the number of school shooters who were on ADHD meds or other physciatric drugs. It will blow your mind.
Y’all tryna make the light skin dude feel comfortable by agreeing wth him! Think for yo self! Pluse Umar is speaking in Generalization u all are speacking for exceptions! AND WE ALL KNOW EXCEPTIONS DONT MAKE THE RULES! 😂😂
As a parent of an autistic child I can guarantee her homeroom isn't filled with what he is talking about. The only reason she goes to the school she does is because is because of the resources available at this school. She has specialists to help. (She is on zero medication even to regulate.)
I grew up in Germany of parents who were born in the middle east never was bullied because of my background.. Overall this happens very rarely in Europe whilst this this an everday issue in America …
@@MarkScott- like i said „rarely“ this is not common like we see in America, you have teachers here who actually defend and listen to your problems which is also lacking in the states…
This doesn’t even make sense. Ritalin is made by Camber Pharmaceuticals. Does he want me to believe that there isn’t one black employee at Cambor? And, wouldn’t one or more of those black people know about this? No black faculty or administrators in any schools? And they don’t know about this? wtf? Only Dr. Umar knows of this grand racist conspiracy? He’s truly gifted.
Teachers associations did a study on the charter schools that are getting better averages, and they found out what they were doing that made major improvements in education. They will not do it. They want to control, they want nothing to do with anything that helps students. The part of the problem is the teachers union, they are preventing children from advancing and they don’t care
Went through this with my son, but the side effects made me nervous, so we just dealt the best we could. Miserable experience for him to sit still. and pay attention he just had a lot of energy to burn
Putting kids on ADD/ADHD was a HUGE thing in the 90's early 2000's. My son (white) it was suggested he go on Adderall, I believed them at first, one week in, no, absolutely not. This was not a black or white thing....this was a pharmaceutical push on our youth by school/teachers & doctors.
He's an intelligent man and is very good with twisting words and how to create a scenario and connect the dots even if they are missing a lot of other factors! I wouldn't take everything he is saying as gospel!
I've met quite a few people that don't get married because they'll lose the benefits they're on. I've met even more people that make sure not to work too many hours or get a better job cause it'll fuck up their benefits, that shit definitely happens
Speaking as a father of 2 the Dr's tried to say my son at the age of 4 was adhd and I rejected that because I can get him to settle down and focus, I can get him to pay attention for long stints of time but the teachers say they can't my son now is 7 and focused and one of the smartest in class with no drugs
Many times, they became behavior issues and ended up in the BOCES programs to learn a trade, dropped out..... Just because we didn't have a name and resources like today doesn't mean it didn't exist.
My family (white) has children 'they' diagnosed with ADHD. Some schools, yes, run differently. And half the children are not ADHD. Sitting mostly ALL day is a hard way to learn.
If you’re talking about the 4 dudes,It’s not self hate they are against the corrupt idea which has been going on in their community lately and not only that but some other wicke* communities as well.People who think that the dr.Umar video is right are brainw*shed simple as that
In the Midwest, if you're a young boy with a single mom, you're treated like what Dr Umar is saying young black boys are treated like. It's very classist here. Despite the fact my sons in 1st and 3rd grade could both do 5th grade math and read at 7th grade level. I pulled them & put them in private school which was worse so now I homeschool and my sons are better off now - thank God!
My white son was dianosed with ADHD as a little child. He was and is hyper, and he's 54 now. I did put him on meds, and he was good in school but when he had stomach aches and seemed depressed, i took him off the meds.
Thank you for this video. My son was diagnosed with ADHD and those medications caused more problems than the supposed illness. Later he developed Type 1 diabetes which may have been a contributing factor to his behavior. I did not get to the dose levels and combinations they suggested. Dr.s and the schools harmed him more than helping. PS. He's white. That guest said "typical Male behaviors". It is not race.
Does anyone see the irony of this statement and this clip being hosted by nick - 1000 baby mamas Canon talking about men not being in the house and how can we change it??????? I mean really Understand the topic

Over medication is NOT a race issue!! They are doing this to ALL KIDS!
Correct.
Blame big pharma
People like these two only think this stuff happens to black people.
@@SunFresh_Ceramicsfr, just putting kids on medical meth
This is true. It isn't color specific. They're drugging all of our kids.
I’m biracial. I’ve been to majority black and majority white schools because I moved around a lot. At the black schools the teachers honestly didn’t seem to care whether we succeeded or not. So many of us were dealing with behavioral issues and were growing up too fast because of our home environments. When I went to a white school I thrived and was always in gifted and talented, listed on honor rolls, and I tested out of my classes and was put into AP and advanced classes.

My black side of my family are well-educated and went to private schools where they thrived (beside white people). My white side are uneducated, unsuccessful, and don’t have the desire to ensure their kids do well in school. It IS cultural, but any person of any color can embrace that culture.
Powerful anecdote! Thank you for sharing ❤

Awesome story! Congrats on success!
This comment is so true. I grew up as neighbors with my cousins, my father (who married into the family) valued education, my aunt who was single didn’t. We’re all white but only one house has both kids that have moved out, I’ll let you guess which…. And that’s just a cultural difference between households in the same damn family

That said, hopefully we are before all, individuals with our own individuality that goes way beyond group identity. Whatever the racial background, there are great and less great people.
As a white man most of my white friends and myself were diagnosed with adhd or something else and put on meds. It's not a racial issue.
It is when u don’t have it but they still prescribed u with it anyways all because u didn’t want to deal with them

The modern public "government" school system has failed everyone. Regardless of race. That was intentional.
I do NOT believe that a country that believed in education to the point that is became MANDATORY for children to attend school would intentionally sabotage that very effort & system.
Personally (as a psychologist and parent of four boys educated in the public school system), the government NEVER took into account that a child's home life would NOT support that child's education. THAT is where public education fell down and failed the very children they wanted to help to be the best.
Your right but systematic racism is a thing and the government has done a alot to keep black people down let's be honest.
I dont believe it's black children , I believe it ALL children.

It was never all people in the time who were discriminated against based on economic factors. These factors can include job availability, wages, the prices and availability of goods and services, and the amount of capital investment funding available to minorities for business, including policies and practices that exist throughout a whole society or organization that result in and support a continued unfair advantage, harmful treatment of others based on race or ethnic group. Centuries of discrimination in public policy, financial practices, and societal norms that limited Black wealth accumulation have not been overcome and will require broad structural changes to rectify the long-lasting impact of inequality.

If the school is poorly run??? How about if the children are poorly parented???🤔
💯💯💯
There’s nothing the school can do to undo the conditioning done at home. I’ve seen it firsthand. Someone at home has to give a damn because the teacher can only do so much.
@ccisthesekxs while I agree with your statement who is to say they can't fill that void with whatever they want to?
It can be both. Incompetent teachers who either don’t care or are at the mercy of teachers unions combined with a poor home life/culture is a toxic combination.
You hit it on the head!!!
PERFECTLY stated!!
As someone who did poorly in highschool (and below) I can testify to the fact if you don't study and do homework or pay attention in class, you will suffer for it. And what does culture say about school? Only nerds care and try to get good grades.
I know there are institutional roadblocks that black people faced in the past, and they should be addressed. However, in modern times, you cannot tell me that the black community favors scholars. Every black person I met who was intelligent and studious got made fun of by other black kids for being 'too white' and shit like that.
Great video! Interesting video and discussion. As a teacher this interesting to listen to. We don’t have much diversity in our high school in China and this is very informative. In China, parents don’t recognize mental health problems here. Looking forward to Can’t Fold!

Speak sista
lack of fathers in the household is a huge problem. The state gives an incentive to NOT have fathers in the home by incentivizing single mothers by giving them $$ if the fathers aren't in the home .
Absolutely in elementary school I was "diagnosed" with adhd and was put on Ritalin but my mother realized quickly that having me on that was the wrong choice and took me off of it because she understood that I was just a child being an energetic child 💯 💯 💯
Or that you didn't actually have ADHD🤷♂️. Did that ever occur to you? Or that you just didn't react well to the medication or she just didnt want to put you ob something she thought might have been to strong for your age🤷♂️? My mom and dad would choose not to have me and my siblings certain medication that might help with an issue because of them not liking the side effects or it being too strong for us at that age...............so yea🤷♂️
actually as an adult I wouldnt mind getting my hands on some Ritalin
Many people are misdiagnosed due to there being so many fakers, but it is a real thing unfortunately. (Speaking as someone who has a father and two siblings with ADHD, it's sometimes genetic. I got my autism from my mum)
My 1st grade daughters teacher came to me about my daughter having a hard time paying attention and staying on task. She goes to a majority white school, maybe a handful of black kids in the school. My daughter is 1/4 black.. but she doesn't look it at all. I'm stuck not knowing what to do and she asked me to fill out these papers with the doctor and go from there. I don't want to put her on medication but I'm scared that my own biases are going to hold her back. What if she needs it and it could help her? I want to do all other options right now because I really don't want her on medicine but I want her to thrive. Idk what to do. I'm praying about it. My husband is mixed and went to a all white school and is biracial 1/2 black and 1/2 white but he takes after his mom and you can't really tell much with him. I don't think it's race based.
Well obviously ADHD is a real thing and I'm sure that there are plenty of cases where children who actually have it get put on the medication and it actually positively benefit them but in my particular case I believe that I didn't actually have it, I think I was just an energetic child that didn't do well with sitting still and paying attention in class when I was in elementary school. After being told by my teachers that I was having these issues in class I think she was just trying to figure out why I was having these issues and was told I had ADHD and that they wanted to put me on Ritalin for it so she did but for whatever reason when I would take it it would make me just zone out completely and just overall had a negative effect on me (in my opinion probably because I didn't actually have ADHD) so she chose to take off of it and sure throughout my elementary school days I was just unable to focus for whatever reason but I still never failed a grade until 10th grade, but yeah I'm sure there's a possibility that I did have ADHD and the medication just had a bad side effect on me that she didn't like but I still believe that a large portion of the children given that diagnosis and put on the medication didn't actually have it and were misdiagnosed whether it was intentionally or unintentionally
I am a huge advocate for junior colleges. I went because I wanted to live at home and save money. I transferred after two years, finished my BA, and went on to a successful independent adult life and career.
My daughter went through this they said first she had ADD then they changed it to ADHD. The only differences she was female and she's not black.
Dr. Umar speaks about the vast majority. The problem is a lot of people cant take themselves out of their personal experiences to see the bigger picture.
The lack of emotional maturity in this video is why its so important for black people to know their history. Everything this man stated was facts and can ve easily googled!! They cannot be this brainwashed and whitewashed
I'm totally amazed while watching this video. They're not even interested in listening to understand what he's talking about but just quick to respond emotionally to the facts being presented. They're like a bunch of teenagers waiting to argue about facts without research. That's sad😢

People like Umar and Nick Cannon are racist, plain and simple. While they are exposing crimes of the deepstate, they actually serve their agenda because they use White people as the scapegoat and keep the focus off the ACTUAL predators behind this mess.
lol you knew it was coming
The school system has been a failure since early 2000's(No Child Left Behind) and it has failed all children(they didn't discriminate) I take the responsibility for what happened to my children and it haunts me to this day. I was a full-time single parent due to divorce and I was trying my best to raise my children. The system had me fooled for a long time and by then it was too late. Also when teachers "lost" (by design) the ability to control their classroom. At this point they have let our children take control and aren't required to show self control. Both my Daughter and Son(both white) went through the special ed department. This man speaks the Truth(and the eugenics against the blacks). This is by design which we can see for ourselves what has happened to our society. My Son was abused by the system the most ,he truly had learning and behavioral problems but the school system done him so wrong. Not only the school failed him so did the medical profession , by design. I also failed because I trusted the professionals. I never had malice towards my son unlike the system, which I truly believe wanted this to happen.
my heart breaks for you.
In the 80’s ADHD was a symptom of a lack of ass whoopin. We didn’t use drugs on kids.
Nick Cannon: I was held back in school.
Nick Cannon 30 sec later: I was given the opportunity to excel in school, and I did.
I think the problem is that in US you have (basically) zero clue about what goes on in the rest of the world. And I get it (to some extent (but not really))... why would you care about anything that goes on anywhere else...? Well... This very same shit is happening globally, regardless of skin color. He should just be glad he had someone to stand up to the establishment on his behalf - most aren't so lucky.
This ain’t a racial thing brothers. He made great points, but it should not have been made about race unless they’re being targeted with evidence to back that. I know plenty of white dudes with these same problems in school. Overly active, not paying attention, and not wanting to follow a teacher’s instructions(all are things that I did in school).
Yup. It shouldn’t be made a racial thing. People making money off of these drugs don’t care about white, black, brown. All they care about is if they can make money off of them.
Looking at a positive, at least we know they don’t discriminate like some of us do out here. 🤦🏻♂️
Everything is about bloody race.. same old same old grift . I’m bloody sick of it
People like Umar and Nick Cannon expose crimes of the deepstate, but they actually serve their agenda because they use White people as the scapegoat and keep the focus off the ACTUAL predators behind this mess. They are wicked racist.
But it is about race and he gave the statistics to back it up 15% of white boys 17% of black boys diagnosed.
If black people are 12% of the population and 13% are black adolescents this would mean that 17% diagnosis is disproportionate and this is what you all who are crying it's not about race is missing.

In middle school a black kid stole my drawing. I asked the teacher (white) can you get my drawing back? Teacher said, " can't you draw another one?".
There was a Arab kid that kneed me in my nuts and I gave him a two piece and laid him out. My history teacher was a Black guy ( ex marine ) didn't send us to the office he just made us do 50 push ups.
Some of the kids in middle school black and white that would take the teachers stuff and throw it out the third story window wouldn't get in trouble. The little white lady was scared of the kids. After a while she just gave up trying to teach us. I didn't learn crap in middle school because of it.
I think things that happen are based on the teachers themselves.
In 3rd grade I used to get in trouble for talking a lot, so the teacher ( white ) made me do writing punishments a lot. She told my 4th grade teacher ( black ) that I talked a lot. My whole 4th grade year I sat in the corner with my desk facing the wall. I was one of the few white kids in the class. I do believe if the rolls were reversed, I was black and the teacher was white in a white class it would be considered racism.
Dr Umar is fucking dead on about schools, reading, IEPs etc! The school almost flunked my son in kindergarten bc he couldn't IDENTIFY the letters but could sound them out, what idiots bc 2 years later when his classmates struggled to read, he was reading at 7th grade level!!! Huge factor....CLOSED CAPTIONS were MANDATORY when I allowed them to watch tv - which was only Little Einstein's until like 2nd for my eldest grade!!!

Not gonna lie but in the 3rd grade I knew how to behave. I dont think using the excuse of "hes in the 3rd grade" is helping in any way. Medication is beneficial if the person actually has a need for it. My issue is they throw drugs out to quick.
Whether he actually had ADHD or not doesnt have to do with smarts. Its kinda insulting that he sees him not being on ADHD medication as contributing to him succeeding and not him just being smart enough to do it. People with ADHD and even those on the medication are still able to succeed and outsmart some of their peers. Having ADHD doesnt make you lesser, no matter your race, and thats disgusting to presume that. Also they just sound ignorant to the topic they are talking about. The medication doesnt force people to pay attention its to HELP them focus. Whether they do or not will just be more in their control and not their brain making it difficult.
The entire psychiatric field is a scam. Look up what seratonin does and how that scam got started. Nobody has ADHD. Thats just Big Pharma labeling normal people so they can sell them drugs.
Take all those ADHD people and make them run a full marathon. See how many are hyperactive after that! Exercise is the answer not drugs.

Dr. Umar said a lot of things about the condition and culture of boys in our society black and non-black. He also said that it starts in the house but he did say that the system and predominantly white women are the ones reporting and dealing with these young boys. He never just blame white people and said that the issue of ADHD was exclusively for black boys. But there's like some inherent need to disagree and focus on him saying that black boys are disproportionately affected. So instead of listening and understanding his perspective, all everybody wants to say was I'm not black I was on Ritalin it's not a race issue. When in fact, there is an issue of race that comes into play.
Umar is a massive racist, he blames "white supremacy" for everything and he cares nothing about how all this affects White folks.
My nephew is white and was diagnosed with ADHD. My SIL has been able to home school him and avoid the drugs. He's doing really well. We grew up in with kids that were drugged up to the eyeballs and they seemed to cause more harm than good. My brother didn't want that for his son. Not everyone is able to avoid the system.

@TheAnitdote facts 💯
This is exactly what the government wants people to focus on race rather than the actual problem, me personally I took what Umar was saying as in a specific subject in the black community I don’t think he was saying that it’s ONLY black people, cause he speak only for the black community, he didn’t start mentioning race yet and y’all were already saying “well it’s everyone not just one race”, and that’s actually the problem, more people are focused on the “all” rather than the problem itself. Black people get discriminated, “BUT ALL OF US DO TOO!” Nobody says, “Fix discrimination” and that’s y we ain’t progressing nowhere everyone think they are in the right and nobody moves forward.
Just looking up statistics would allow you to realize what Nick is saying is true. I work with kids and the minority children are overly diagnosed, with ADHD. They are put on medication, and trainings…. Please I urge you to look into psychiatric treatment, and children and adolescents. He’s talking about the manipulation of the SYSTEM, he’s really not talking about race. Your friend in the black near “can’t fold” seems defensive and mad for literally no reason. He’s trying to tell y’all, it’s a scam and the schools are cheating you. This isn’t a “hot take” he just didn’t want to hear it.
I was saying the same thing to myself while watching this. That guy was emotionally out of control and always wanted to respond without actually listening to understand. They should rather invite Dr Umar for an interview and ask him these weak questions and arguments that even I from Ghana can easily answer.
My daughter is 13 but struggled for a couple years in school. With her grades and was constantly distracted and had problems with her writing, and organization. She was getting bullied and depressed. I struggled with putting her on meds. She was diagnosed with disgraphia and adhd. Because of her declining grades and her mood we made the hard choice to put her on a med for her adhd. It has helped a lot. She's doing much better now. Yes, we are a white family. And we have been very involved with our kids and their schooling. So for people to Blame parents for bad parenting if their kids need to be put on meds is not right.
I do love you guys and your videos.
Dr umar is talking on another level and these brothers are not willing to listen and hear him out . They’ve already made up their mind be for the video started because it’s dr umar. He keeping it real they just in a sunken place. Y’all didn’t even finish the whole video to hear him out smh
Discipline was removed from all schools gradually throughout the years.
Schools get more money for children diagnosed with any learning challenge, like ADHD, autism, etc.

I wouldn't even give this one second, let alone one hour
The people that created the system of racism never changed their mind about racism they just changed their tactics.
IEP = Individual Education Plan = Special Education
My teachers tried to get me diagnosed with ADHD but my mom wouldn’t hear it. So I got diagnosed in my 30s and when I finally took medication for it my life improved 100%.
I’m glad I had to figure out how to live without medication first though
Let's not forget that in every system, even schools, if someone is treated worse because they are black, it's a lawsuit waiting to happen. Every system, in today's American culture, fears THAT lawsuit.
59:25 he’s not wrong, my brother and sister-in-law (both white) had three kids together, never got married and they never both ysed their actual home address so she could get WIC, food stamps, and other government help for being a single mom. People work the systems, despite being in love. It’s facts.
It’s like y’all can’t comprehend anything he’s saying 😭 that’s sad it’s like y’all are so in denial these things keep saying “ huh “ “ what “ he’s saying basic info we should know already 😑
He makes sense ...just it happens to Everyone
White guilt is real and that does cause issues aswell even if its nothing
I usually don’t comment on YT videos but I feel in this one the guy with the glasses was the only one keeping it 💯 and keeping an open mind about the dialogue. I feel like the others already had it in their heads that they were going to disagree with Dr. Umar so they weren’t looking at a lot of the topics objectively. Especially, the other guy in the front w/o glasses. A lot of the stuff Dr. Umar said in his conversation regarding education was accurate especially the section regarding special education. It’s ok to discuss data based on demographics especially if black children (boys) in particular are the focus of the conversation. That doesn’t mean that other races aren’t affected.
Exactly
People like Umar and Nick Cannon expose crimes of the deepstate, but they actually serve their agenda because they use White people as the scapegoat and keep the focus off the ACTUAL predators behind this mess. They are wicked racist.
In kindergarten they tried to put my kids and grandkids on medicine for ADHD I said no and my daughter said no they are fine now and yes they are white children
In his defense, he only is focused on black problems no other races. Saying that, you shouldn’t expect him to talk about other races when he is only focused on the black community. (The community with the most problems).
Thank you man, thank you for just simple truth. I just think we just be together but focus on our own communities
I am 67 yo white woman, who was not "diagnosed" with ADHD and therefore not medicated, probably because that wasn't a disease back then. When I was 22, my Mother and I went to a craft fair and a woman said she was a former 3rd grade elementary school teacher of mine. She said I was a good sweet girl, but "figgety" as a child, and that I also liked to talk in class. She said that several times during class I would stand up, twirl around, then sit down. I don't recall the twirling, but I recall that a couple times in 7th grade, I stayed after school to write " I will not talk in class" until my Father picked me up. After the 2nd time he said I have to pay attention in class and stop talking. Those writing exercises and Dad's advice had worked. My disruption days had ended. As an adult, ADHD was the latest "condition" applied to "figgety" disruptive children. I wondered if I was ADHD. Afterall, as an adult, whenever I found my mind wandering during business meetings or a conversation, I had begun pinching my leg in order to focus. I have to wonder how medication would have affected my life. Would it have clouded my sweet nature, creativity, memory, and intellect? Would I have been successful and attained my comfortable lifestyle I enjoy? I'll never know, because I had teachers and parents who were not quick to label me anything but "figgety" and outspoken; who trained me with love, understanding, and discipline. Some children are just plain "figgety", or spoiled, or need attention for other things going on in their life that they can't verbalize. Medication isn't always the answer.
Why does the color of skin change how 10 year boys typically behave though?? Way too many boys are diagnosed, regardless of their skin?!? I'm so confused by this..
These young men have no life experience !!
This guy is a joke. Ask him where the 700 thousand dollar he raised to open up a school?
I have 3 ADHD children. Two were tested by the public school and classified special education. Not really about race.
I am so grateful for my children’s IEP and the additional assistance provided
In Georgia the state gives a scholarship for kids on an IEP to go to private school. This is a great benefit.
First of all, Nick Cannon thinking he was the 3rd smartest kid in the entire county is hysterical. 😅 Second though, schools do get extra funding for kids who are diagnosed as special needs because they have to spend more on resources for those kids than non-special needs kids. But special needs kids come in all different colors, not just black.
What this doctor is saying about mental health and the pharmaceutical industry is 100% correct. But he's wrong to think that this only affects black kids.
Actually, black schools do get more money than others, and they're still sh**.
Dr Umar has always come across to me as someone geniune in his fight for black people. Specifically, black boys. People always criticize him for making money as if he's not supposed to make a living.
im 32 to now but i got told back in high school that it would be harder for me to get into college because i am white and that the colleges look for more diversity so if i wanted to get into college i needed to at least have a 3.5 gpa and then get told that my close buddy only needs a 2.0 or higher to get in.. My highschool teachers were the ones who had told me and many more this is how life will go for schooling
You do realize that on one hand they misinformed you and on the hand they made it this way because the racists system says black people are inferior and need a headstart when it has been proven time and time again we do not need a headstart, we just need to be treated fairly.
Check into these statics and do a show on it. Look at the number of school shooters who were on ADHD meds or other physciatric drugs. It will blow your mind.

As a parent of an autistic child I can guarantee her homeroom isn't filled with what he is talking about. The only reason she goes to the school she does is because is because of the resources available at this school. She has specialists to help. (She is on zero medication even to regulate.)

Nailed it, the culture.
Teachers associations did a study on the charter schools that are getting better averages, and they found out what they were doing that made major improvements in education. They will not do it. They want to control, they want nothing to do with anything that helps students. The part of the problem is the teachers union, they are preventing children from advancing and they don’t care

Putting kids on ADD/ADHD was a HUGE thing in the 90's early 2000's. My son (white) it was suggested he go on Adderall, I believed them at first, one week in, no, absolutely not. This was not a black or white thing....this was a pharmaceutical push on our youth by school/teachers & doctors.
He's an intelligent man and is very good with twisting words and how to create a scenario and connect the dots even if they are missing a lot of other factors! I wouldn't take everything he is saying as gospel!

Sorry can’t watch cause this convo is so unintelligent it’s not worth noticing
Speaking as a father of 2 the Dr's tried to say my son at the age of 4 was adhd and I rejected that because I can get him to settle down and focus, I can get him to pay attention for long stints of time but the teachers say they can't my son now is 7 and focused and one of the smartest in class with no drugs
When did anyone talk about adhd in the 80s?
nope, there wasn't smartphones nor internet back then
Many times, they became behavior issues and ended up in the BOCES programs to learn a trade, dropped out..... Just because we didn't have a name and resources like today doesn't mean it didn't exist.
My family (white) has children 'they' diagnosed with ADHD. Some schools, yes, run differently. And half the children are not ADHD. Sitting mostly ALL day is a hard way to learn.
How does he know this much about schools and still having problems 15 years later opening up his first school. On the real, STFU!
Hes worked as a school psychologist for almost 30 years dummy
Every time I check in you all, you're having an interesting discussion on an important issue. Much respect! 🙏💜🍾
These dudes have self hate issues
It's just a grift
If you’re talking about the 4 dudes,It’s not self hate they are against the corrupt idea which has been going on in their community lately and not only that but some other wicke* communities as well.People who think that the dr.Umar video is right are brainw*shed simple as that
How??
@@mahalallel2012wdym I’m genuinely curious please respond if you can
They have other-people-hate issues.
In the Midwest, if you're a young boy with a single mom, you're treated like what Dr Umar is saying young black boys are treated like. It's very classist here. Despite the fact my sons in 1st and 3rd grade could both do 5th grade math and read at 7th grade level. I pulled them & put them in private school which was worse so now I homeschool and my sons are better off now - thank God!
Yes! It is absolutely more poc teachers in city schools
damn this might be the most facts i’ve ever heard umar speak. for the most part.
Them shirts looking fire I gotta cop one when they drop. Fr fr yall bouta get mad support on Can’t Fold.
Why does it have anything to do with black and white?
Love to see inside Nicks brain when Umar said kids growing up without the father in the home comment.
My white son was dianosed with ADHD as a little child. He was and is hyper, and he's 54 now. I did put him on meds, and he was good in school but when he had stomach aches and seemed depressed, i took him off the meds.
Social behavior is taught first and foremost at home.
I'm so glad there are intelligent young people still in this world. You're all smarter than these two rich man. He knows nothing.
It’s my understanding that IQ tests discover how well a brain can recognize patterns.
Thank you for this video. My son was diagnosed with ADHD and those medications caused more problems than the supposed illness. Later he developed Type 1 diabetes which may have been a contributing factor to his behavior. I did not get to the dose levels and combinations they suggested. Dr.s and the schools harmed him more than helping. PS. He's white. That guest said "typical Male behaviors". It is not race.
Does anyone see the irony of this statement and this clip being hosted by nick - 1000 baby mamas Canon talking about men not being in the house and how can we change it???????
