You didn't say that? :mjpls:



C'mon. It took less than 2 minutes to quote you.

Black people don't get their ideas funded, right?

Idiot.

And that quote still stands idiot. VC's are not interested in giving black folks money. what planet are you on? Even in the story he states that all the acclerators denied him except for the newme accelerator which was designed specifically for the reason i stated to help combat the challenges blacks face in getting funded. in other words the newme accelerator ONLY exist because VC's were not interested in giving money to black people.

Don't try to dress it up fakkit.

In the other thread, you was quoted several times saying blacks had no place in Silicon Valley, wouldn't get funded, wouldn't get hired. I brought up high profile black tech entrepreneurs like Tristan Walker who got funded by a premier VC and Justin Edmund who's a top employee at Pinterest. And Dre who just sold Beats to Apple for BILLIONS OF DOLLARS. You dismissed those examples calling them tokens because it kills your argument. Don't try to make it sound like you care about the problems they face. You was being a pessimistic dikk saying that it can't happen NO MATTER WHAT. Bulge brackets are more elitist than any company over in SV but yet somehow it's nikkas in investment banking, corporate finance and trading. What makes you think it can't happen in tech. We're underrepresented because nikkas don't want to program. Nikkas don't major in CS or Engineering in large numbers. There's no boogie man keeping us down. Your whole stance was stupid. Yea.....a cac will hire a nikka to manage millions of dollars in a brokerage account at Citi but god forbid he wants to run a startup.

"Imagine if n!ggas had a chance to become accounts before being taught what the difference between wet and dry weight is...imagine if these little inner city kids had the same type of schools the rich kids have way out in the sticks ....imagine if n!ggas learned chemisty foreal before learning how to whip 7 1/2 out of 6"


That's what I have been saying. Give the opportunity and access that better funded, better instructed school have and watch. Environment and opportunity is a major factor of success. This guy has the kind of drive and mentality that he could pull himself out and get through the system everybody doesn't. But if you helped them, taught them they would flourish.
