How do you guys feel about the projection that black American wealth will be 0 by 2053? I have a hard time believing it

Bruh

This is why I write the stuff in another format and save it first.

You're right, you shouldn't be talking about that, if your going to say that. That talk is a reflection of your non black American mentality, which is for most being dependent on whites.

It's like a black American saying that Africa will never be independent from the west.

100 %

Probably some white supremacists wishful thinking. They're trying to discourage you to build stuff.

Making a good OP was very important to me and I hadn't saved it properly

If anyone wants to contribute anything to OP let me now. I think a more inclusive OP would probably be better regardless.

Was talking to my lil brother today and he believed slaves were savage inhuman people before they came to America. Had to ask him how could savage unintelligent people make so many inventions on plantations. They didn’t all of sudden become smart the minute they touched America.

Idk what they teaching these kids in school

White supremacy

As I said, you can use stuff from my OP

Teaching them bullshit.

We have to create some sort of canon to teach our own kids because the govt is teaching nonsense.

My mentality isn't dependent on whites, but ok

I knew someone that tried to do the through the boys and girls club but got denied immediately. When you start going to programs trying to teach black history you turn into a black radical I guess.

Nah

When you learn black history you become informed not radical. They try to manipulate language to keep us uneducated about our own.

Just like the calling black men "militant" because they believed in self defense.

To be honest, it most likely is. That s*** runs deep. And your earlier comment is really revealing.

100%

The propaganda that justified slavery is still going strong.

Just because I think its an uphill battle doesn't mean I think it isn't possible.

Are you saying non-American black people have a mentality of being dependent on whites in contrast to black Americans?

Any continental Africans seen this yet? Any thoughts? Is it historically accurate?

I think this current generation needs a Malcolm, Angela, Huey, etc,. hell Cornel West should be on TV more running his mouth too but he's a bit too "old" for the current gen of Black America (I'm 23 so it's not shade), more likely to listen to someone of this age group.

I say that cause if a figure of that caliber was talking reparations talk, it would be a hotter topic than it is right now. They have linked reparations talk to xenophobia or implying Black Americans will benefit from other programs, so there's no need for specific funds to us; which is horse s*** lol. It'll happen, and its starting to pick up more traction in regards to black people pressing their representatives about HR 40 (which needs to be rewritten) and what not.

Was listening but moved on to other vids. I think it's too easy to lament the state of African nations but not look at history in totality. If you look at things isolated you'll buy into Africa being lowest on the totem pole at all times which just ain't true when you look at world history. The simple fact of the matter is that we exist within cycles of time. This means that every kingdom rises and falls, we just don't exist in a time where we have seen great kingdoms in Africa dominate but there isn't a nation on this planet that has dominated for all time. E.g. Look into the history of Britain. The land has been taken over by so many different groups that in England only 10% of people are 100% English. The Saxons don't dominate anymore, the romans ain't here anymore, Normans and Bretons ain't here anymore. Heck at one point the Moors ran large parts of southern Europe.

There are lots of kingdoms that existed centuries ago: stolenhistory.org/threads/tartary-an-empire-hidden-in-history-it-was-bigger-than-russia-once.40

Just read the OP (saw some racist s*** on there one time while looking into old nations that vanished centuries ago but that OP should give you an idea of what I'm talking about regarding nations dominating and then apparently just disappearing from history).

Human history is weird and not clear, I do think a lot of people in the diaspora will lament the state of African nations but won't acutally do anything to build but also there's never the recognition that things are improving quite drastically in a lot of African countries.

/ Damn I Really Want To Enjoy This Thread But Goddamn Is There Mad Reading

I’ll Be Back

Yes actually. When it comes to masses yes. Of course there are some African greats that are the greatest of human history and the average black American couldn't compare.

But OVERALL the black American is more rebellious towards white supremacy than Africans, and until proven otherwise I would say more rebellious than any other black person on this planet with one exception: The people of North Sentinel Island

Hold on let me quote you.

Here is your quote
