So certain revelations have come up recently that made me contemplate taking a more "activist" approach in regards to the current state of the black race in America.
I thought about it heavily... a new civil rights stye renaissance is needed to fight the biggest enemy afflicting the youth especially... themselves.
The self image of young black seems to be scarily negative.
What tools, characteristics and personality type would new generation black leaders need to possess in order to get the ball rolling towards discipline and self respect?
Just get out of here bro. Black people would not rally around someone who has spoken against religion so much.
Real shyt though
organized religion.dap for the vid but black ppl, and everyone in general, need to get their ass out of religion. it's a distraction from what's going on and a tool of manipulation.
We've made it this far with religion. It's slightly naive to place human motivations and initiatives on the back of philosophies and concepts. We do things out of greed, jealousy, love or power.religion, organized religion is the same thing. man is a social being and when 2 or more ppl are doing something anything they have to get organized. organized religion is inevitable.
man has to come up with something else in place of religion that isn't a distraction.
idk if your ignorant or not....malcolm x wasn't effective. part of the reason he wasn't is him using the religious platform. the islam platform is very polarizing. white ppl and many christians black or white or hispanic or whatever just wont fuqq with what he's saying him being islam period. but that's what was culture back then.
i (and many) don't know who thomas sankara is so that's proof he wasn't effective. you can also call it ignorance in my part. i don't care.
breaking off from what is culture is not easy.
naw, we don't need a leader.......
Yeah, I'm not trying to act like the general populace of morons (of all colors) would actually vote for a man who has so much sense. But It's who I would love to see as a leader.
right now we need to get off religion. yes it's brought us this far but to get to the next lvl we need to get off it. anyone that comes with that buddist, baptist, yoga sh1t isn't going to get things done. infact anyone that comes with that sh1t has already boxed themselves in a box before anything.idk if your ignorant or not....
but you should look up sankara for an fyi. and he was eliminated because he was a threat - just like many others.
Have you listened to many X speeches? Most of the ones he gave and most of the ones people remember weren't about religion. Mature people recognize that religion or non religion, or whatever is a personal choice. If the person is motivating others or having an effect then it shouldn't matter what they believe in.
Isolating people or dissing movements because they even have a religion is also feeding into the divide and conquer as much as anything else.... fyi.
If someone is about economic empowerment, or anything else- then why do u care if they are Buddhist or Baptist?
Anyone who didn't listen to Malcolm x back then wouldn't listen to him now... and ur completely wrong about y blacks rejected him back then. Very few did cuz of Islam. Most did because they were nervous about his message. Others did because they were on the Peaceful protest stuff.. and the CIA and some CAC rejected it because he was
effective.
America needs an intellectual to lead, someone who puts education above dropping bombs. Obviously, I meant a leader in general, not a leader for black peoplenaw, we don't need a leader.......
but it's funny u made a suggestion.
Too soft = too intellectual?He's smart, but FAR TOO SOFT.
you know that shyt don't bother me brehCACs cant participate. Sorry breh.
not trying to call you a cac breh, just trying to be funny..
In this case...right now we need to get off religion. yes it's brought us this far but to get to the next lvl we need to get off it. anyone that comes with that buddist, baptist, yoga sh1t isn't going to get things done. infact anyone that comes with that sh1t has already boxed themselves in a box before anything.
a leader cannot go around bashing religious ppl. it'd be like someone trying to unite ppl bashing other races. me for example i goes in on ppl i don't give a sh1t. i'm just tired.
or the way those black israelites bash white folks. ppl don't like being exposed and put out there.
i've sat in many churches. baptist churches, protestant churches. i was brought up catholic myself. i've studied the bible. and i've lived this earth from starting from middle class to crashing to the bottom and back up and come to the conclusion that religion will not and does not work. if only i had that time back..
