There is a clear need for positive Men Role models,mentoring Black Pupils from Schools to Workplaces.

An amazing organization I had the chance to work,mentoring Black Pupils “Male Development service,Boys 2 Men”,filling in the gap in the lives of Black Children who have no Father figure,is something that should be encouraged Nationally,I have seen it work,and their Team is so dedicated and committed to raise self esteem,achievements of Black Youth.

Any rational thinking human being known’s that any form of rape is wrong and inhuman. But this documentary is a disgrace for only highlighting the black young ignorant teenagers who live in estates. (After seeing the doc they should of called it ‘Why do black men/boys rape and how?) Totally ridiculous.

All involved should have looked at the social problems of all men and not 56mins of focus on the black community and 3 mins talking about a family in the north west of England. For the presenter to keep asking experts ‘Is gang rape a black problem?’ is wrong.

People making this documentary should produce facts and look for answers/deterrents’ to stop all people from thinking rape is ok.

This is horrifying and scary. It is also sad to see Black communities anywhere slip into such a horrible state of disregard for human life.
