Hard Truth: MLK and Integration has set Blacks on a path we will never recover from.

[Tropical Fantasy]

How many MLK was a c00n posts am I going to see

HE wasnt c00n but he tried to appeal to the humanity of whites. History has shown that the vast majority of caucasian people have no humanity & show no empathy towards non whites

MLK was way too idealistic while Malcolm was realistic.

Martin Luther King Jr's DREAM turned into a NIGHTMARE

HE was a c00n and naïve he tried to appeal to the humanity of whites. History has shown that the vast majority of caucasian people have no humanity & show no empathy towards non whites

5 STAR thread

Very true as well

I disagree fully

whatu see now wasn't what MLK had envisioned, don't let that I have a dream bllsh1t fool u.


After he dropped that speech he went on to start the poor people's protest in Washington and had people camped outside of the whitehouse lawns in tints protesting poverty in the U.S


Dude was really about to get on his socialist tip and his next goal was the radical redistribution of the nations wealth. Letting blacks sit at a restaurant was all fine and dandy but when he started talking like a socialist they had to kill em and put a stop to it before things got out of control.


Diss MLK all u want but the man got laws changed, Malcolm couldn't do that. Malcolm inspired ppl and changed MINDS, MLK changed LAWS, so miss me with that he was idealistic ish


Now what I will say has set black people back and it will probably sound like a contradiction after just saying such nice things about a preacher (MLK) is Christianity


It has done more harm for blacks than good. And it shouldn't take credit for the civil rights movement, had MLK been Buddhist, they would have organized in a temple, had he been muslim they would have planned in a mosque. There was nothing special unique about christianity that got blacks through those tough times. it was simply happenstance

A. The aspirations of entrepreneurship died down.

In the 40s, 50s and 60s, Black were on the same page. We were ready to listen and do whatever we thought would help our situation. We put our trust into King, unfornutately his ideology has proven a massive failure. If he wouldve had us pushing for more Blacks to open businesses, we would have did that.

Today, Blacks are more divided than ever. The community is in shambles. The traditional Black family is in the worst shape ever. The successful Black man is pretty much like a lone Lions roaming the jungle with no pride. The Black woman is pretty much a self sufficent Hyena, that only needs a man to impregnate her.

Real life is at odds with your self-proclaimed notions of being a black scholar producing "hard truths"

Im not really going to get into this idea that blacks lived a more favorable and superior life under legalized American Apartheid, and state sponsored terrorism. Its just about the strangest thing I've ever read --- fondly reminiscing over the days of jim crow??????

At any rate, I just wanted to shed some light on the continued " there arent any black businesses in America" propaganda, which has become a disease around here:

Demographics of Business Owners Increase in minority and Hispanic business ownership. Minority and Hispanic business owners make up a small share of all U.S. business owners. However, their share has been on the rise. The rate of minority business ownership in 2012 was 14.6 percent, compared with 11.5 percent in 2007 (Figure 1). Black business owners made up 49.9 percent of all minority owners in 2012, while Asians made up 29.6 percent. The Hispanic share of all U.S. business owners was 10.3 percent in 2012, compared with 8.3 percent in 2007

https://www.sba.gov/sites/default/files/Issue Brief 2, Business Owner Demographics.pdf

From 2002 to 2007, the number of black-owned businesses increased by 60.5 percent to 1.9 million, more than triple the national rate of 18.0 percent, according to the U.S. Census Bureau's Survey of Business Owners. Over the same period, receipts generated by black-owned businesses increased 55.1 percent to $137.5 billion.

“Black-owned businesses continued to be one of the fastest growing segments of our economy, showing rapid growth in both the number of businesses and total sales during this time period,” said Census Bureau Deputy Director Thomas Mesenbourg.

...but yeah, forget all that stuff. Maybe you coli niccas can start a 'Back to Jim Crow' movement so blacks can go back to living the right way!!!!! @HebrewAllahTripleDarkness

i see integration as black people pushing back against white domination...i really dont believe black people risked being attacked and humiliated to have a dirty ass cracker prepare and serve them food...the only reason for black people to desegregate was to assert they right to move freely without white people ack'n a damn fool...rosa didnt want to sit where white folks sat..she wanted to sit where she pleased...it had to be done...being around white people aint worth fighting for...

Realest post in this thread.

The Radical King edited & introduced by Cornel West. Gives some insight into his later years, which never seem to be publicized.

Agreed!

I don't think we had the power to do otherwise either. Black business is one thing. But it has to be supported. Black education, money, political power, media power, etc. Hard to have your own without infiltratin' the system 1st.

But MLK questioned is integration movement towards the end. He was becomin' more radical, more economical. No coincidence why they killed him when they did.

 

[BrandonBanks]

Yep

 

[thekingsmen]

This was a formulated plan, it was going to happen with or without MLK.

@Stuntone what are you doing right now to help fix or move black people into the solution you described in the first post?

Real Question, btw.

Such a dumb deflector question.

There's nothing a individual can do. We all need to be on the same page with the same plan.


Answer this question. What does MLK making the wrong decision have to do with im doing?

 

[DrX]

I agree, this shyt is all the fukked up

You didn't answer my question, or should I assume nothing? I can tell you what I'm doing, should you care to know.

If everyone believed "there's nothing an individual can do" then we've already lost. It means that Marcus Garvey, Malcolm X, Denmark Veasy, Nat Turner, so many others never should've tried.

An individual can spark change by inspiring others.

But if you're only making threads about where black leaders from 60 years ago made mistakes with out talking about what you are doing to fix the problem you're not fixing the problem.

To be fair talk is cheap.

OP, replace "we" with "I"
