No Black person would say this. You conveniently forget how we were denied loans, jobs, and property, and this still continues to some extent to this day.
Black folks why are we always allowing cacs and others to monetize our culture?

You get what I’m saying though. The bananas team is 100% entertainment, not a negro league team replacement

We don’t allow it. They usually have the money they need to mass produce our creativity or the access to promote it in the media.
I feel you op.
This is the same way FBA hbcu alumni feel about HBCU football culture with the bands etc.
There is literally nothing like it anywhere but because it's not cosigned by cacs a ton of our fellow fba brethren don't look at it highly, don't cherish our institutions and don't send their kids.
We can change a whole lot just by valuing ourselves more.

Damn you tethers hate FBA culture so much
The Negro leagues were entertaining not the rigmarole that y'all are talking about.
Of course to you Whites and Jews that been monetizing (tethering) off Black American culture for centuries are not "Tethers"..

Because nikkas want to sell it. We are willing sellers, people always omit that part. At the heart of Black AMERICAN culture is being AMERICAN. It's not being "monetized by cacs" it's being sold to the highest bidder who often times happens to be white. All to buy some trinkets to flaunt on other black folks.
shyt isnt "culture" and something to be preserved until cacs whitewash it and begin selling it to themselves. But as long as some black faces are in the mix collecting money then it's all good, everything is for sale. Cookout invites and nikka passes 50% off

So revive the negro leagues where black men are twerking, doing jingles, rolling baseballs off their butts dressed in loud colorful outfits.....
what italian is going to stop me from starting an italian resto? I can monetize italian culture or japanese easily. 
the real question should be, why don't black people capitalize off their culture more efficiently. that would make more sense

You know gotdamn well what the reaction would be if the banana boat boys or whatever the fukk were black.
And not because the negro leagues can be reduced to that in any way...but because not only do we care too much what white folks think, a lot of of us are very white adjacent mentally and would shyt on it out the gate and would see it as degrading, buffoonery even at it's best iteration, let alone if nikkas is out there twerking and dancing for white crowds, because won't be no stadiums without white majority support.

nope. It's about the sense of community
Black cats LOVE doing capitalism with non black
irv Gotti was talking about "the greatest feeling in the world is a rich white dude introducing you to another rich white dude"
Rick Ross was talking about being the " only n**** in the sauna with the Jews"

Unfortunately this is the answer. We create something big and we sell it not seeing the value of owner ship.
