Erykah Badu: "Poor Is The New Black. You Don't Have To Be Black Now."

[Frida Giezman]

Breh, you're social standing is your reality. Those poor whites have a higher social standing than poor black people. That means they have access to loans and jobs that black people don't have access to. It's why that poor whites with a criminal record can get jobs that black people with college degrees can't get.

Come on now lol

Edit: actually I know some white (trash) chicks that I would never hire that always seem to get office jobs

Study: Black man and white felon – same chances for hire

I know it sounds insane but in a country as racist as America insanity is to be expected

 

[Rekkapryde]

Wrong.

Poor whites are always treated like they exist. Most white employers hire poor whites before any black person.

No shyt.

My point is that compared to poor blacks, you don't see the poor whites being dissected on TV/media. And they outnumber poor blacks vastly.

And the fact that they can be more fukked up than us, but their socioeconomic situation isn't shyt on like ours is.

We know that if their is a choice between poor black/white, the choice will be white.

classism is the problem but yet them rich blacks can get they shyt raided and get arrested for breaking into their own homes. there's a glass ceiling for how much guap a nikka can make in this country. ain't no fukking parallels between blacks and cacs the system reiterates that perpetually. a poor cac can climb that ladder until he sees fit but classism is the real issue fukk outta here. she knows better than that. you can't think she really believe's that. even c00ns know their playing a part. and like I said before any nikka that plays dumb to our situation on a public stage should be shunned.

There's this weird penchant where black people with voices feel the need to be inclusive to everyone not black. Black activists, "intellectuals", and liberals cape for this "solidarity" and coalition of all races that has no valid basis. The biggest signifier is using the term "POC".

You'll notice this everytime:

"...and other oppressed people", "... and other people of color" "and solidarity for all POCs..." "And ALL poor people..."

Notice everyone else's struggles HAVE to be shoehorned in ours, in some little tidbit or fashion.

Don't forget the ever so popular "Black AND brown people"

Poor country whites and poor inner city blacks have more in common than differences.



Yet somehow they're the two groups that complain the most about the other group


Wonder how that happened

13% of the population set apart by race complaining about the heavily armed poor cac portion that outnumbers us?

 

[ezrathegreat]

This tired Classism vs Racism debate. We live in a white supremacist nation where your race decides how you are valued by society, it's been proven millions of times. But c00ns like Badu can't help but for white people instead of calling them out.

 

[postnutclarity]

Seems like a revenge thread for asking women to dress with self respect.

Did your dumbass really call this a "revenge thread"?

Some of y'all nikkas need to step away from the computer and re-immerse yourselves in the real world. It's NEVER that serious.
