He is the truth. He and some other Black investors just recently purchased some land in New Orleans, I think in the 9th ward. They're building a new tour area to compete witht the French Qtrs. Might need make as much money as them at first, but the foods, drinks and clubs are going to off the chain.
That's whats up. I remember him mentioning this. Good to see it's bearing fruit. He attempted to get a business district organized here in Detroit and the fukk ass city council voted against it. I cant remember her name, but one councilwoman called it reverse racism. A black woman, saying a black business district which would put food on the table for the black community is reverse racism?!?! Meritorious Manumission. The shyt is real. She either thinks like a slave or somebody was in her pockets.

The media went on the attack too, calling it "Africa Town" when it didnt even have a name developed yet. That scared this shyt outta white folks haha It's sad because here theres a Chaldean Town, Greektown, Mexican Town, Polish Town, but now it's a problem when we do it?

Black people need a contingency plan for racism they'll encounter because it seems there is a contingency plan when we start to progress, so that either your not allowed to do something or if you do it will be eventually taken over(BET).

Yea, we definately have to start thinking outside of the box as far as strategies go.

Sad thing is, a lot of cats have a price and can be bought...

:salute: I watch the whole thing. I will watch it again and take notes. I like how he takes you from beginning to end with his explanation of the system of racism. Dope.

EDIT: @2Quik4UHoes I was thinking the same thing. I think when you take notes, you have a deeper understanding and you can read further into all the events that he discussed.

Good video, but watching videos like this always make me depressed...I wish it were that easy for us to all just come together

IMO, the problem is 3 fold. The 1st problem is there's a generation gap between the younger generation and the older generation. The older generation came from the era where marching and speeches was how cats got shyt done. My generation (and the one after mine now that I'm approaching :flabbynsick: status) really don't give 2 fukks about a speech.

In the group I belong to, the elders don't wanna let go of the rains and let the new generation cook, which leads to frustration and people just saying "fukk it, I'll just do me." Personally though, I'm on some get down or lay down type shyt. All the old heads gon have to move the fukk on out the way, and let the young bucks carry the movement :birdman:

The other problem is a lack of effective leadership. Everyone ain't self motivated or visionary. So if the leadership don't have the skills/talent to effectively delegate and get shyt done, very little will be accomplished. Having people who are the heads of these groups not being able to manage their soldiers causes problems. Again with the group I belong to, we're right by 4 HBCU's in Atlanta with about 25k students each year coming and going, and not a damn thing is being done to reach out to em. The elders don't seem like they want to take input, or don't have the balls to tell the soldiers to get to work.

Last is a lot of these nikkas are just full of talk. The "conscious community" is filled with a bunch of weed heads and dusty nikkas who'd rather sit around and have a smart dumb nikka debate about white devils, chem trails, Moorish history, and Kemet instead of actually getting off their ass and doing something productive.

Either way, I'm bum rushing nikkas. I ain't gon let these old heads stop me from doing what I feel I need to do :pacspit:

Nah, you're missing the point. Whatever group you proclaim yourself to be apart of, you will always be judged by the stereotype of that group. Thinking of oneself as 'belonging' to a race or creed is one of the biggest thrusts behind the phenomenon that is racism. If you're gonna identify with anyone, do it on the basis of character traits, not physical traits or one shared belief. Malcolm learned this lesson the hard way, let's not let his struggle be in vain breh.

I'd advise you to read powernomics. Dr. Anderson specifically discusses the need for ethno-aggregation (black people surrounding themselves with other black people). As an African, you're not hated or discriminated against because of you're religion, political ideology, country of origin, gender, or sexual identity. You're descrimintated against because you're black. When the group no longer aligns themselves by race, the power of that group becomes splintered. There's 50 million Africans in this country, and so many of us categorize ourselves by everything except for our race.

Y'all thinking too much in this 'us' and 'them' shyt. There is no 'us'. Denzel doesn't give a fukk about you 'cause you're black breh. Neither does Jay. Neither does Barack. They care about individuals who can further their goals, their money, their movie career, their business, their administration. You have nothing in common with them. Their white colleagues are closer to them than you are. White people don't give a fukk about other white people breh. They just care about their own personal interests. You're clinging on to policies from the past and you're using the racist remnants of that past to paint a picture of it that only reinstates it. Race is just a few shared genes breh. No different than sharing a gene with other tall, sick or bald people. I don't give a fukk who I share some genes with. That's some lottery shyt. What can we do for each other? How much can I trust your character?

We have hundreds of years of history in this country that proves that white people have 0 desire to do anything for black people. You also have hundreds of years of history in this country showing that white people have shown nothing but hatred and disdain for black people. In 2013, you can say it's no longer about race, but my question is when did white supremacy stop being our enemy? It was our enemy during colinialsm, slavery, reconstruction, Jim Crow, the Civil Rights movement, and the black power movement. At what point did white supremacy no longer began to oppress Africans in this country?

I just want to thank the OP once again for posting this thread and to brother @SuikodenII for posting that video. That's one of the most enlightening things I've every watched/listened to.

Now what are you going to do with the knowledge you have? Are you going to join an organization to try to fix the problem, or are you going to just be like fukk and go back to just having fun ouchea.

Yea. Made me realize that they (whites) really wanted ( and some still do, subconsciously) this to be a homogeneous nation like japan or china, and it somewhat IS like that. Everything mainstream is white. Commercials, movies, tv, etc all white. If they really believed in all this melting pot, there is no race because we all are american. Then why not portray that?

I feel you breh but I'm a grown ass black man. Let me tell you exactly what I've done and will continue to do.
I own and operate a very successful business in Charlotte and have hired black and mentored black people (I have two CACs on staff though). I've helped other black people start their own businesses and become independent. On a personal and business level I seek out people from my community first to spend money with. I'm a member of 100 Black Men of Charlotte and I school and mentor these younger brothers.

I'm a child of Marcus Garvey, Malcolm X, W.E.B Dubois and their philosophy is the blueprint that I live my life by because those brothers had it right since back in the day.
I'm reasonably free and independent from the CAC since he doesn't sign my check. I'm all about black empowerment and black nationalism. I don't give a fukk about assimilating or integrating with the CAC. I'm married to a black woman that feels exactly the same why as I do and practices the same shyt that I practice.

That's my small part in advancing the black cause.

as I stated earlier just share the video with family & friends, discuss this man and get his message out as much as possible. There is no way this vid should have just under 60,000 views. To many of us need this info & have to start implementing it.
