That caused me to care less about getting an education and I became lazy and chose not to do work as serious as I used to. But because I'm a very smart person I went straight through college and got a bachelors degree even though I was a slacker throughout the years.

I cannot. I literally cannot. Why are you trying to make this about you? You said they called you a nerd, but from this post it doesn't appear so-- no offense. Here's why:
1. Blacks are not limited to African Americans/ Black Americans -- whichever is more political correct.
2. Your statement is invalid because only a few/poor blacks in America fall into the stigma because society failed them-- they only have access to poor schools and therefore they tend not to value education
3. You're contributing to the problem with your I am educated post--
4. No blacks bring harm on themselves by being black
5. You experience is limited to blacks from New Orleans so do speak like you're the cloud that hovers over America
6. It's a child being a child
7. I bet in rankings your high school wasn't that good
