Bill Cosby on parenting
Bill Cosby is one of my most favorite stand up comedian. He also had a great TV show, “The Bill Cosby Show”. It ran between 1969 and 1971. I happened to see a rerun many years ago and I was hooked immediately. I have since then admired his many standup shows. He is a very mature, educated person with a brilliant sense of humor. He has always done ‘clean’ comedy. Being an African-American, he takes on and comments on many issues affecting the African-American community. Recently, he was criticized by many African-Americans for saying that African-Americans are themselves to blame for the serious issues affecting the community like; teenage pregnancy, poverty, addictions, education(kids dropping out of schools/colleges) and income inequality.
