@ the black community before crack, ignorance, excess guns, and morbid obesity fukked us up.
Especially the obesity part.@ people not taking pride in cooking anymore and eating garbage every day.
Not the conditions that led some of us there?

That is true. The reason why I am so hard on black folk today is because they settled to be ratchet and ghetto, thinking that it is normal. How you not like seeing black people striving for Black Excellence?

Look at the media images. How is Neil Drgrasse Tyson not the inspiration for black youth, but people worship Gucci Mane like he is God?

Poverty is very hard to escape. In my city, the average rent for a public housing unit is $400 and typically a 2 bedroom place. The average fair market rent for a 2 bedroom is about $950. You combine that with lack of jobs, education, family and opportunities and it's not difficult to see why people live in the projects for years.
a lot of revisionist nonsense getting thrown around in here but i guess black and white pictures have the tendency to make everything look so dignified. for one everyone dressed that way then it was the main style and we were following it just as we follow the popular styles nowadays. if you look at some of those pictures closely you can see much more garbage and grime in the background than in some of the worst hood nowadays. and if we were so united and upstanding how can just a few decades destroy all of that? the fact is were much more uneducated and there were a lot of problems just below the surface and when things changed economically in the 70's and 80's we were not equipped to deal with those changes.
oops lol
Its generations of that shyt that makes me
. Especially now how people lack dignity on how they look like and how they treat other people. Forget about the music and the media that wants us to stay stagnated and ignorant.
