asking for accountability within the black community in defense of our marginalized brothers and sisters we tend to degrade my nigga.

A big downside to a public leader will be their inevitable death by a racist or the government but then we could use their death as a martyr to further our causes

Poignant

Exactly that.

But the downside of that is that it will make some people less courageous to just see countless of our leaders being killed like that.

And the problem is we make marches for our martyrs but we dont really go to town. We should make it eye for an eye when it comes to people that ride for our group.

I don’t think it’s that serious lmao, us black men definitely got a problem with Black women but tbh I don’t see that as much concern we got bigger s*** to do

A lot of the violence on trans people comes from niggas f***ing them, feeling ashamed or the trans person threatening to expose them (aka downlow niggas) and then getting killed

Interestingly, Most black folk really don’t like gay people, like an average black person around the age of 20 is as homophobic as a 60-70 year old white person lmao, I’m not gonna lie I hold some prejudices myself as a Muslim but killing folks because you gay on the low and you don’t want niggas to know is pathetic

Exactly, I hate how we go and burn up our own stuff, instead of that if we gonna burn stuff let’s make them Upper middle class neighborhoods pay

It’s anecdotal, there is no source but my point is that black folks ain’t gonna stop hating gay people anytime soon so we should focus on things we can actually do in the time we currently live in

A leader and the concept of one isn't going to work.

It's especially not going to work in the United States.

A lot of these issues in "the Black community" (what does that even mean? Let's get specific? There's Black people everywhere, which community are we talking about) are side effects of colonialism. In the US and Americas specifically it's colonialism and slavery. Black men that are Afrodescendants are coming from a lineage of men that were denied manhood... And humanity. That's going to look nasty generations later especially in countries where they still live next door to their oppressors. Black women have the same capacity for homophobia it just manifests differently.

Some Sylvia Winter or Hartman will further discuss this. I really encourage everyone to read more works from these writers because they're addressing something we keep overlooking in talking about issues within "the Black community" for a long ass time "the Black community" weren't even human beings, humanity has not been a reality for niggas since the ARAB slave trade. So how do you learn that after centuries of exile from it. We live in a current society where people reaffirm their humanity by being antiblack.

Before colonialism, so on the continent which all our ancestors go back to, homophobia was not a thing. Neither was transphobia. This is even true for some European groups like the Vikings that believed all men had both a male & female spirit.

Us black folks got to remember that anyone except US aren’t on the same page as our agenda, Black gay people deserve to be in conversations but white gays only hinder us from achieving our goals JUST like white feminists

Damn can you give me a TLDR to some of the points or a time mark?

I heard the movie wasn't bad but that the Male characters didnt do any unfiltered jokes.

One of the guys is arguing that the movies wasn't that good but black people are praising it. His entire point is that there should be mor black movies that are actually good instead of just pandering nonesense.

The people that bring up black on black crime just deflecting. They spend time researching crime statistics on places like Chicago but then refuse to research what the community does to combat violence. Black people not allowing murders to go unanswered in the community. At this point I just stop the convo when that comes up
