  1. I had the pleasure of meeting Dr. Umar almost 20 years ago. He was definitely one of the black medical professionals that educated me on children with disabilities. Throughout my personal and work experience I have witnessed how these educational institutions t to take advantage of parents and students. Something has to change with our education system we’re losing generations of kids. Our community really needs to understand the root of what’s happening to our children of colors. 🙏🏽🙏🏽

  2. Dr. Umar I concur I'm one of those aunties that believes in education is key. So I get great pleasure in handing out books educational toys puzzles & fundamentals. To the youngens coming in my family.

  3. I’m ts funny Nick cannon is interviewing umar when I’m at talks about single family households when Nick created so many single parent households. Hopefully he changes and realizes the important of family infrastructure physiologically because the significance of a father PRESENT within the home seeing two people love each other is important

  4. Salute to Nick for always giving someone a platform to voice themself and never being afraid to discuss a topic. And shout out to Umar for being unapologetically blk.

  5. This is so true and so informative. Please sound The Alarm create a movement on this topic our kids need YOU!!!! TAKE ACTION CONTINUALLY TILL CHANGE!!!!❤

  6. ADHD is a real, documented condition that should be taken seriously. I understand people not understanding it. But, please, always be open to the reality that you don’t know everything, especially as it relates to medical conditions. Yes, please do your research but also understand your limitations. View your own understanding in context.

  7. In my country uganda there is no special ed. kids are encouraged to improve progress and compete every semester summer is go help elders in the village summer school on his fees and taxes thats a choice American kids should be reminded school is a small job that gets you to a bigger job 🤗

  8. One of my good friends who is her 80s and a retired teacher. I asked her one day who is the blame for the children’s behavior. Parents or teachers. And she said parents because they came in contact with them first. I said wow never thought about it that way.

  9. Man we learn slow but we learning. Dr umar right about alot of things in this video and I can truly see I already see the effects of some of these things being known and implemented in our society. Mothers are moving away from letting people put their kids on them IEPs or whatever, fathers are back in their children lives, male teachers are on the rise, parents trying to stop generational curses by staying together and giving their kids better lives. I’m not saying we all are there but I see it a lot more. We listening just gotta keep pushing y’all

  10. Speaking of mental health, what does murdering, millions people, over several centuries do to a people? More mass shootings than days in a year? Police murdering people in the middle of the street? Copied behavior of our teachers?, we speak only European languages, who culture is it really?

  11. I Attended PWI for my Masters.
    I remember how much the professors were discouraging us to combine our Fall & Spring courses to graduate in the Spring. It was 5 of us AA students who signed up & the counselors kept asking us collectively & individually are we SURE because once those forms are signed if we fail this will set us back in the program. All of us remained on the list, worked full time jobs, completed the course work, 300 + hours medical rotations, & thesis in one semester. Graduated together 👩🏽‍⚕️ 👩🏽‍⚕️👩🏽‍⚕️👩🏽‍⚕️👩🏽‍⚕️

    The rest of the class graduated the following Fall semester. Since it was one graduation those students walked with us in the Spring. I personally didn’t want to walk across the stage in the Spring and then have to go back to school for summer portion & part of Fall to officially graduate.

    But yes we have to stay the course & know who we are when others are trying to discourage us.

  12. i was placed in special ed in the 5th grade for reading problems. but the real issue was i could not see the chalkboard, my glasses had broken and my aunt was using the money she was getting from my mom on herself instead of for the care of the kids. special ed was a great time though. video games all day. thank God they put me back in regular ed, in the 6th grade.

  13. Black community doesn’t exist that is why we don’t help each other. An active community has a common goal and interest and work together to achieve it. Our community was destroyed.

  14. I absolutely love to listen to Dr. Umar because I am in 100 percent agreement about the information he shares. I work in the education field and I see it everyday I am also in the process of putting up a fight against the detention policy in the school districts as I am a firm believer that is a firm of being detained having their skills detained rather that stepping up to the plate and teaching on or about how to become a better organizer or better time management but they rather isolate more of our black and brown boys. Thank you thank you. I hope one day I will have a conversation with you.
