To all of you who have anything to say about Black people.
Consider these few fine points:

1. American Black people are mainly descendants of peoples who were taken from their homelands and enslaved for multiple generations over hundreds of years.

2. Systematic indoctrination and "dumbing down" made certain that the future of the cultures and peoples taken would never again be of great intellectual or socioeconomic significance.

3. Institutionalized segregation from higher education opportunities and/or employment create incredible adversity for those of us who want so badly to change our predetermined poverty and perceived ignorance. (And yes, affirmative action helped but now reverse racism is just as bad)

4. Although there are many of us who have and will continue to make wonderful situations and opportunities of our lives, there are a vast many more who will never even know what it means to have conviction or determination, let alone even be able to spell the words.

5. American black people are due reparations no matter what has become of the completely beaten down group of peoples who were originally enslaved and stolen from their lands.


and one final point.

6. Most of the people who make comments about the activities, decisions or actions of American Black people, commonly have no contact with black people or an educated and experience-driven opinion worth listening to.

In closing,
I have no need to call names or point fingers, you who have made racist comments have done plenty of that. We are one race of beings and really need to start realizing that those of us who are systematically kept in certain socioeconomic and cultural positions deserve a little more understanding.

I myself have 2 bachelors degrees, graduated university with a 3.7 average after 6 years and currently have a magnificent and fulfilling career with my eyes on the future. Not all black people are as fortunate. But seriously guys and gals, take a step back and look at your own lives and try to realize that people who are told they will never amount to anything, will always think that way. Send them your positive thoughts instead of scathing, ignorant remarks and perhaps things would shift. The power of intention is boundless, limitless.

Why should anything be paid for slavery? I dont know of any former slaves living. Is Egypt paying the Jews for having them in slavery? I believe all are equal, with the same opportunities.

 Quoting: Tokpela

I'm sorry, but I get so sick and tired of hearing about reparations.........really!
For what?!
COUNTRY FIRST

These are possibly the 5 best sentences you'll ever read:

1. You cannot legislate the poor into prosperity by legislating the wealthy out of prosperity.
2. What one person receives without working for, another person must work for without receiving.
3. The government cannot give to anybody anything that the government does not first take from somebody else.
4. When half of the people get the idea that they do not have to work because the other half is going to take care of them, and when the other half gets the idea that it does no good to work because somebody else is going to get what they work for, that my dear friend, is the beginning of the end of any nation.
5. You cannot multiply wealth by dividing it.

Re: To all of you who have anything to say about Black people.
there are more impoverished whites in the US then blacks

it's a numbers thing..as far as percentages are concerned, i'll lend some credence to your idea BUT here is the thing


it's been a loooong time since slavery and everyone makes choices for themselves..just like you did SO it can be done and if it isnt, its a choice and whitey isnt to blame..its the nigga in the hood who holds back the nigga in the hood first and foremost


for everyone else, its business as usual and by the way, YOUR kind, through all forms of media, do an exceptional job of holding your kind back and self actualizing nigga'ness


do something about it..sending "vibes" all day long amounts to SHIT ALL...action homie

 Quoting: Tokpela


In other words, it's up to whites as to how the blacks ultimately act? On one hand you say whites are to blame for the actions of blacks because of the past, then on the other you say that whites need to inspire blacks through positive reinforcement in the future.
So in other words, whites are the ones that dictate how blacks act and live? That's the problem with blacks. They ALWAYS think they are the victim and deserve something.

The more i see the black culture, the more i believe it to be genetic disposition. Like another poster stated elsewhere, "Aggression and emotions make-up for lack of intelligence."

You can blame whoever you want OP, but it's in yalls blood i'm afraid.

1. American Black people are mainly descendants of peoples who were taken from their homelands and enslaved for multiple generations over hundreds of years.

Then go back to where your heart takes you.

If that is Africa then be on your way.

If you choose to stay this is America where minority's have more opportunity then the whitey.


2. Systematic indoctrination and "dumbing down" made certain that the future of the cultures and peoples taken would never again be of great intellectual or socioeconomic significance.

This statement applies to all races on every continent.

3. Institutionalized segregation from higher education opportunities and/or employment create incredible adversity for those of us who want so badly to change our predetermined poverty and perceived ignorance. (And yes, affirmative action helped but now reverse racism is just as bad)

That may have been true 40 years ago but not so now...Stop living in the past.

4. Although there are many of us who have and will continue to make wonderful situations and opportunities of our lives, there are a vast many more who will never even know what it means to have conviction or determination, let alone even be able to spell the words.

"there are a vast many more who will never even know what it means to have conviction or determination"
That might have a lot to do with there parents and what they were taught growing up
.

5. American black people are due reparations no matter what has become of the completely beaten down group of peoples who were originally enslaved and stolen from their lands.

Stop living in the past it is not as if this has happened to you.

I am glad for you and your education.

But I am white born to a middle class family in the USA and do not have such opportunity's as the "Black Collage Negro Fund" or any of the other minority collage funds.

I am a Trucker and am tired of being treated like a second class citizen from minority groups.
