Doesn't go back far enough, but it still applies.

This is why we got to keep having more of these books. He spouting white conservative think-tank rhetoric now.


:mjlol:
A historical investigation into the political and ideological foundations of the "miseducation of the Negro" in America, this timely and provocative volume explores the men and ideas that helped shape educational and societal apartheid from the Civil War to the new millennium. It is a study of how big corporate power uses private wealth to legislate, shape unequal race relations, broker ideas, and define "acceptable" social change. Drawing on little-known biographies of White power brokers who shaped Black education, William Watkins explains the structuring of segregated education that has plagued the United States for much of the 20th century. With broad and interdisciplinary appeal, this book is written in a language accessible to lay people and scholars alike.

this applies to all white people. the system is currently structured, and has been since slavery, to enrich white people exclusively and reproduce that wealth across generations.

white supremacy is largely a system of mass theft, plundered from the bodies of non-whites, enforced by the military and the police.

She forgot to count the millions of black lives lost to racism over 500 years to this day across the world, and how our suffering directly benefited demons like her so she could have a good life while we lived in hell.

It's not just about money and wealth, to pay this debt cacs would have to be extinguished into oblivion :unimpressed:

white folks can convince some of yall of anything if they use the word racism

people love hearing it because it absolves them of any responsibility

what you guys arent think about is what that does to the black consciousness and what our people believe is possible...
youll forever underperform if you believe youre cursed

that mental baggage is why our people underperform where it matters...
and we have the highest crime numbers

for some reason you all trust white people when they tell you youre a victim...
what about the history of this country allows you to fully trust any white person?
The article you're quoting lays out how structural biases in diagnosis, treatment and education contributes to this, yet you're trying to downplay it like you always do this.




Candace is a hustler just like every other person on TV and Internet that talks for a living

She's only a traitor to the idea that black people need to be liberal

We have been trained to believe that is the only way for us (liberal politics)

We are more loyal to democrats than actual black people
which is part of our problem...we are easily divided by nonsense

are we going for the betterment of black people in general?
or only when they stay in line?

because I would argue black people being successful no mater their stance is a plus for all of us

has intellectualism ever been high on here?

the whole board thinks there's a boogey man out there keeping them down and in the gutter

He made a lot of racist, anti-Black posts in this thread, but they were deleted. You can still see them quoted by other posters, though: https://www.thecoli.com/threads/we-...white-supremacy-marjorie-taylor-green.916802/

I did this long time ago

Basically each female slave able to bear children was worth about £150

I calculated what that would be worth in today's money

Then put that sum in to a high interest savings account from like 1865 to date
Worked out to a million or so
Imagine that for each slave and these jiggas had hundreds upon hundreds of slaves EACH
And were compensated upon the release of slaves

Her calculations mean nothing she talking bout couple hundred thousand that's a LIE
It's in the millions
Each

That's why there are billionaires and people with trillions
It's wild. People complain about "cacs" and how they never want to take any accountability, etc. etc. and here's a woman who wrote a whole book about the advantages she's received being a white woman in this society and explicitly says that white people have to make this realization and still a way to criticize. It's not to our advantage trying to find fault in people who are actually trying to tackle these issues. And as has been explained, she wasn't referring to what overall reparations should or shouldn't be but simply how she calculated what her specific advantage has been, even given a humble upbringing. You can infer what that means for white people who grew up in wealth.

on one hand you could say its a good thing for raising awareness of how white supremacy benefits them but IMO it seems like this was done for clout. author seems like a "pick me" type that wants look good for the cameras. and it'll probably work, she'll sell a ton of books, and it'll be forgotten about in a month.
