I don't think it is right if minorities don't have computer access, they need to look things up just like normal people. Is there any way to get more computers in their homes so they can do homework and look up services? How can I help, it makes me sad?

lol What a joke ? well I'm brown and i have a computer at home a laptop for homework when away from home and oh by the way maybe you don't think that but i have a job too and i work on a computer all day then when i go to school (college) ,(you probably don't think we do that either lol )
we have computers in our libraries
Just because you do not have a computer or any common sense for that matter doesn't' t mean all minorities (i could easily argue that fact as well ) are like you
But since you wanted to help donate some of your money to an inner city schools but it's not guaranteed that your money will only go to help minorities
Good luck with your dilemma and thanks for your concern !! lol

This was a ridiculous question.....african american people have computers and can be successfull and even rich just like every other nationality. I think that someone who is not "black" even thinking to ask this shows how little people even enter a predominantly black setting or how few black people they even know. What is the matter with people? What you have said about people needing computers though does have truth....because many many people with fixed or low income cannot have a computer because #1 they cant pay for a computer, #2 they may not be able to spare the"extra" cash for internet service even if they have a phone line in which many impoverished families still do not have. If you want to help people hold a fundraiser or something or form an organization that helps all minorities and other nationalities so it wont appear that you are not condescending to them. I also want to say for anyone who doesnt know any black people or have any black friends go get some cause you will find true blue lifelong friends, and this isnt a steriotype or racial interpretation ....it is a fact..............................re-post.....I see that but its not your lack of eloquent language skills .....it is the obvious failure to know other people before you speak on their "behalf" no offense I was just telling it like it is and you asked ;)

I have a computer with internet access, and guess what? I'm black. In fact most of my black friends and family members have computers, mainly because we hate phones... and don't like postage....

Well most of my "Majority" friends have computers and only look up porn and more creative ways to grow and smoke weed.

Ok if they can't afford them, then they don't need them, there are plenty of whites and other races that don't have them either. That's what libraries are for, all schools have computers now. A computer is not a necessity it's a luxury, just like a cell phone.

It's obvious you live in some trailer not to know what's going on on the outside world. I have all the latest gadgets, too sophisticated to explain them to you and so do all the wonderful people i know both black, white, Chinese, in Africa, Europe and so on...oh and it's all in their homes.

Do white bigoted people have success opening their minds and blocking out racism, bigotry and hatefulness..or has their brains shrunk as a result?
