EMOTIONAL INTELLIGENCE

I BELIVE that most people on my side of the tracks are fairly intelligent, as in any community some a lot smarter than others. but I believe in my community more than any other we suffer from a lack of EMOTIONAL INTELLIGENCE! EXAMPLE: while attending an A.A. meeting last night in which about 90 % of the attendees were white, a well dressed articulate dark-skin black man blurted out "WHATS THE SOLUTION" a lawyer was telling his story in what we call "speaker meetings" where one person tells their story about how they've overcome alcoholism. this particular black man had made me so proud before when he spoke, like I said he was well dressed and he spoke very well which isn't the case so many times with us. but here we were listening to the speaker, the place quiet as can be and he shouts out this loudly! WHY? WHY? I believe its a lack of EMOTIONAL INTELLIGENCE. I believe its harder for black people to control their emotions than it is for whites, i'm sorry its just what I believe. everytime there's a loud outburst on the train its almost always someone black. when there's loud music, cursing, calling each other NIGGERS (and in front of white folk) or someone with their pants below their butts its almost always a black person, (more on this later) WHY? NO EMOTIONAL CONTROL! something that I work on everyday, controlling my emotions. EXAMPLE: a white friend of mine and I were at a mall in los angeles and we were approaching some beautiful women walking our way the white guy goes" man look whats coming" but as we approach the girls I noticed that he kept his head straight and pretented he didn't see em, but you know me with my out of control ass I turn all the way around "heey baby" looking at their behinds, thats what I mean no control, no discipline. gotta go running outta time i'll be glad when I can get my own computer so I won't have to worry about this shit!
