LESSONS FROM PRESIDENT TRUMP AND JAY-Z'S COMMENT

BLACK UNEMPLOYMENT RATIO IN THE USA

"Somebody please inform Jay-Z that because of my policies, Black Unemployment has just been reported to be at the LOWEST RATE EVER RECORDED!" (6.8%) he tweeted. "Our economy is better than it has been in many decades. Businesses are coming back to America like never before. Chrysler, as an example, is leaving Mexico and coming back to the USA. Unemployment is nearing record lows. We are on the right track!"                                               -Donald trump (President: USA).

This information was in response to comment made by The Brooklyn rap mogul Jay-Z in his recent interview with Van Jones on CNN.  Among other things, discussed was President Trump's recent "shit hole countries" comments.

JAY-Z'S COMMENT

JAY-Z said he was actually perturbed with 45's (President of the United States) comments but not disillusioned. "That's disappointing and it's hurtful," Hov started. "Everyone feels anger. But after the anger it's really hurtful because he's looking down on a whole population of people and he's so misinformed because these places have beautiful people and beautiful everything. This is the leader of the free world speaking like this. But on the other side, that has been going on. This is how people talk. This is how they talk behind closed doors.”

In essence Jay-Z thinks these are situations of racism.

"It's not about money at the end of the day," Jay added. "Money does not equate to happiness. You missing the whole point. You treat people (Black people) like human beings."

LESSONS:

These two comments are equally true and definitely require proper assessment and attention for effective decision making, for the improvement of life of humanity.

In my view, we don’t have much control about how people feel, think or say about us, but this rather throws a challenge to us to probe or access ourselves and this in intent proves “our critics” wrong. It’s their sole prerogative to show respect to their fellow brothers and sisters.

There is a revealing aspect of Mr. President’s comment and to best understand him, he is saying America is open for business from all walks of life including the blacks. Hello world America is calling for businesses.
The authenticity of Mr. President’s comment can be trusted much more.  

In a nutshell, pay attention to people, listen to their point of views and draw your lessons and make your decisions.
