The shyt was meant to light a fire under our asses but people like Yvette Carnell and Tone Talks perverted it into defeatist evangelism and people actually rock with it :camby: I can't hear that "permanent underclass" shyt no more
More or less but this is, amazingly, not a popular topic on this board. People will get mad or aggressively ignore the point as well. Easier to complain about passport bros I guess.:francis:
:heh: Somebody else said it best and I'm butchering the hell out of it, but manhood is the creation and ownership of institutions/culture. Passport Bros take flights cause they have no concept of manhood, just malehood (getting your dikk wet)

Doesn't matter why it was said if it was true

I am not saying that at all. What i am saying is that black people that are doing well should focus on ways to build and pass down that wealth. Also that involves leaving areas that are crime ridden if you can. It sucks but you cant stay in impoverished areas when you are doing good, you become even more of a target.

There is going to be a disproportionate amount of black people in poverty for a long time, but that does not mean we can not have others that are doing good. We have that now but we need more.
And I'm saying attaining wealth to be passed down from generation to generation means controlling the means to production. Sure individual families can acquire temporary wealth for a generation or two...But owning production is the base of real generational wealth

Why would u immediately bring the republicans into this when I hate both parties...:hhh: see that's the fukking problem with that knee jerk deflection that doesn't give us solutions you fukking retard.:camby:
There are only two politically viable parties in this country, the Democrats and Republicans. You said black people vote blindly for the democrats and do not expect tangibles, so what other party is there to vote for? You said nothing about "both sides", only Democrats. Nothing about hate for either party. Even if you did pull the "no voting before tangibles" card, that still is not a solution either.

So you cant obtain higher end jobs, use the money to live in a stable neighborhood, send your child to college to get educated to obtain a high paying job as well? Most people who are in middle to upper middle class do not control the "means of production" but do just fine without it.

Pretty much. And he gave us the solution decades ago...

There are a lot of Black people trying to do well, but we’re still way too far behind.
What’s the solution?

Not being an a$$hole I genuinely want to know to implement it in my life and my circle

Well this is a message board. No one is gonna solve anything on here typing, it's just for people to have discussions.

Dr. Claude Anderson has given many solutions based on economics. But to keep that economic prosperity going long term, I like Dr. Bobby E. Wright focusing on creating a Black social theory to reform our culture. And to reform our minds and spirit, I like Dr. Ray Hagins who teaches a Black centered spiritual system instead of the Europeanized Christianity our people still practice today.

The real question is does Black America even want a solution? Because when you give a solution, too many people have a problem for that solution. And many of our people in high places are eating off of us being at the bottom so they aren't gonna try to solve anything. They are okay with being a big fish in a small pond.

The only solution I've seen most Black people agree on is reparations and that's for obvious reasons. Takes a lot of pressure off of us and guess who controls that solution.

:francis: Damn near 50 years later since this paper was written about Mentacide and Black America is still putting their hope and faith in institutions controlled by.................the people who are intentionally keeping us underneath them.



Mentacide differs in theory and practice from concepts, e.g., "brain washing" in that its ultimate aim is the extirpation of an entire race.

There is one essential condition in order for the process of mentacide to be effective; namely, the control of the opposing group's institutions or the power to significantly influence them.

Unfortunately, for the Black race, that condition exists through the world. In fact, some Black groups, e.g., those of the United States and Azania (South Africa) are enslaved rather than being oppressed, exploited, etc., in that all their life sustaining institutions are controlled by whites.

There is no denying that there are whites who are oppressed and exploited by other whites, but they are still able to significantly influence institutional change. The technique of mentacide deludes Blacks into believing that there is a commonality between them and oppressed whites, which leads Blacks to attempt to form alliances with them. Yet, in spite of historical failures of these alliances to benefit Blacks they continue to pursue this process. Unfortunately, Blacks will continue to utilize white directed techniques in attempting to solve their problems and will continue to be unsuccessful until they can develop a "Black Social Theory."

I think there is a chance but it's extremely slim. It would require sacrifices that we just aren't willing to make and changes in policy that just won't happen.

Oh so you drinking that defeatist ass kool-aid too :martin: Idk if it's lost on folks but our ancestors were literally the underclass. To say that we're permanently becoming an underclass after coming from that is... :patrice:



A startling self esteem issue :francis:
Our ancestors got freed because of the federal government
If they wanted to, they could have slaughtered us
Instead, they're content to let us die a slow death

Dudes in here would rather talk about hope and crackpot theories like Black ppl were here before slavery

Singing we shall overcome and uplifting the shyt our ancestors had to go through has not, and will not get us anywhere

Yall make me sad

Talking just to talk
