That's a good point but some of the men on this list were athelethes and entertainers like Jackie Robinson and others. |

The irony of this is that he was a drug addict! He may have been a good brother but he had a severe addiction. Its interesting the people you choose to praise. A drug addict is not a role model. |

That's very good Ms. Shutup. I never heard of the guy. But he looks like a 70s icon, and back in those days dope was a huge problem for almost everybody. Including whites. It just appears that some of the brothers don't know what a role model is. |

I can't believe that you are trying to find something negative to say about these black men. |

It's not negativity, it's reality. He may have been a good man but he was a drug addict. Getting caught in a bad situation doesn't stop a person from being good, just like having a clean public image doesn't stop a person from being bad. He was a good man, but he had a problem like many other people in the world. Try to find out who a person is before you judge them. |

Gil Scott never got on television and made black people look bad like a lot of these black people are doing today. If he had a problem nobody saw it, it was something that was private that went on in his personel life. |
