Black people who have a bunch of white friends are suspect

[Ezekiel 25:17]

So you went to law shool, knowing the profession is dominated by white peopke, but you didn't talk to them to network?

When keeping it real goes wrong and ends with 300k student loans and no job

Waste a T-14 law education to stay militant on a soon to be defunct website brehs

And no offense , but you already look like you could only date white girls so no one would have even cared

My white best friend's(college roomie) parents have a ski chalet, I have my own suite when I visit

He'll be alright. A lot of folks here can't get passed law school.

I definitely would've been talking to everybody though, get my foot in the door and then start my own law firm with black lawyers

When I see a black person who has a bunch of white "friends" I honestly take them to either be out of their minds/delusional or scamming them.

Like you have to be nuts to be a black man/women in American and surround yourself with white people . Im not talking about on some work acquaintance shyt or for networking, but as friends . You're unnecessarily putting yourself in harms way.

That's what op is talking about.

Black people who surround themselves with cacs are lost.

You reaching like shyt with the white people don't talk to black people bit of the equation
If you live in a mostly white community and all your friends are white you get a pass from me
If you live in or near a diverse or mixed environment, ie: most major cities, and all your friends white then yea it's sus

Agreed. But many nativists (aka ADOS) are quick to ascribe the "c00n" label to black immigrants. But yes, you're absolutely correct.

See, I thought this thread was about being genuine friends with white people, not actual networking. Networking is different, because if you want to climb the ladder, you need to expose yourself to different backgrounds whether you like it or not.

So basicaly it depends where you live and if it's intentional or not. /Thread

100% cap


some of the fakest friends i ever had were black

 

[Wiseborn]

Define Friend. I think nikkas get it twisted just because you kick it with white folks based on shared interests doesn't they can't be on code against you when necessary.

agree, with one caveat. saying they are actively seeking out white people is a bit of reach. there are more white people than black people in this country.
If anything you have to actively avoid white folks. I say this because i've moved around alot in my life and had to start over several times. There have many times when i walk into a new bar and be like "oops all cacs in here, clearly i'm on the wrong spot." a bunch of people looking back at me like places i used to live a know plenty of black folks, i visit years later find out it was heavily gentrified and all the black folks i know that are left hanging out with mostly cacs. this system is designed to isolated us, they not "going out of their way to ingratiate with white folks" they just not resisting hard enough imo

They dont want CONSTRUCTIVE black people linking up. Thats the key word.

They let a bunch of short-planning black folk link up at the church and club.

It just dawned on me that there are certain people within the Black community that like to target a specific type of Black person based on a perceived notion about that specific person...

Basically, Black people who function with non-Blacks whether it be business or romantically related are considered 'soft targets'.

Also, these soft targets are held to a different set of rules, standards, etc than other Black people.

Brass tax...

For those who have some sort of animus towards certain types of Black people...

If it bothers you that some Black people act a certain way or functions with people you feel that shouldn't function with, then what are you going to do about it?

Do you think that smiting these people on a messageboard is going to stop them from being who they are and/or doing what they are doing?

Are you going to befriend these types of people? Are you going to set them up and hook them up with someone you feel they need to be with? Are you willing to network and provide business opportunities for these people?

Another thing..

Why do some Black people who take issue with another Black person care so much about what these people are doing or with, especially if that person being judged isn't personally affecting the judging Black person's life?

Moral of the story..

Finger waggers have a lot of nerve to be pointing a finger at someone while ignoring the remaining fingers pointing back at them!

If a Black person has an issue with another Black person, then said person need to address it promptly or fall back and leave the other person alone!

I had a bunch in college. It was due to circumstance tho. My school was like 75% Yakubian....and they like to drink

 

[UpAndComing]

All these people on the Coli who never had a white friend or even spoken to a white person has absolutely no problem voting for a white person when it comes to politics

You can't make this up

 

[Premeditated]

I disagree with the 'white people don't even talk to black people' part. or maybe it's my experience. no matter what setting, cacs stay trying to start up conversation. These people really be telling their whole life story and their problems to randoms and you don't even have to ask deep questions. some of these cacs are too easy to manipulate. The problem is, alot of black folks fall into cacs manipulations before they realize that they too can do the same

 

[Peter Parker]

What if I have no friends at all?

 

[cyndaquil]

This is the first I've heard about these "white" people
