(SPIN): Black-Americans NEED To Travel More Often (OUTSIDE The Country)

[www.THUG.com]

American Black men have low travel rates. This is from statistics and if you remove the military aspect it's even less.


P.S. I'm glad we do have those FB groups though Oh yeah, I personally know a lot of people who have traveled out the U.S., so this doesn't go out to me.

Since I've never had to check a box on my race when I've traveled, I'm interested in reviewing these stats. Please share.

There is a travel thread ya know

Yeah, I know, but this isn't telling where Blacks need to go. It's just bringing up that more Black-Americans need to travel outside the U.S. in general. Bigger than the coli fam.

Nothing against people who travel. I just hate this stupid ass oft repeated pseudo-point.

Nothing wrong with traveling, but its important that a certain sector amongst us travels and attempts to import and bring back things from other cultures that could be useful to our people and the communities we wish to rebuild, and incorporate into culture we wish to re-birth.

Everybody does not need to be traveling right now. Some of y'all just want to copy white folks and imitate them and go about spending money we should be using to build our communities and offer opportunities to our youth to enrich foreign entities.

I much rather we funnel funds into think tanks and PACs then spend it traveling so we can take pictures at monuments, and eat foods you could eat in damn near any major metropolitan area.

So black people who are actually travelling and posting pics of their travels isn't doing the same thing?

I've made at least 15 threads stressing that point. However, we can multitask and network with our people in other countries/build connections. There's levels to this breh.

 

[SeveroDrgnfli]

Where you getting the money to do all that?

Exactly. Traveling overseas is expensive. I ain't got paper like that. I have to pay for food, housing, utilities, clothes, haircuts, dates, school, my cell phone, and some more shyt.

I mean outside the coli. Reread the OP. I'm not talking about a niche, but more people in general. Also, I mean for networking reasons too.

Yah, I pretty much addressed that too. I peeped the levels

It's really not. If work the hostel and woof (work for your housing) game right, you can see the world for really cheap. Plenty of hippie white kids doing it, no reason why we can't.

And yes we have a thread of black excellence seeing the world.

I really don't care to go anywhere else. If I'm interested in other countries I'll just watch a documentary on them

But to go out of my way to be there.. nah.

I think the whole idea of "traveling around the world" is overrated. All I'ma do is spend money, look at shyt, eat different food and leave... I'd rather just take a quick road trip out of state and do that.

Out of state is still the U.S. breh. That means you really haven't been anywhere

There are a couple countries on your list full of people who hate you more than American whites believe it or not.

It's not expensive at all. Obviously you're not traveling everywhere at once, but one or two trips a year for about two weeks ain't that expensive.

Moved out of America to Ghana 4 years ago. The difference is quite amazing. Changes you fundamentally as a person especially if you can speak the local language and connect with people.

 

[SirReginald]

I should have added Japan, North Korea, Sweden, Norway, and The Netherlands to my list.
