As far a "leader", even if we had one, a lot of y'all rather look up to nikkas like Future, c00n nikkas like Kanye, etc than somebody like Boyce Watkins :troll: so even if we did have an intelligent leader who was teaching us to build our own you'd say he was lame or boring etc and still like the Future type nikkas more

:russ: Just because some nikkas get on Twitter and tweet "Black Lives Matter" and support the 'movement' doesn't mean they actually want things to change. Actions > words.

There are a lot of nikkas who go around complaining about not being taken seriously,and discrimination, yet when asked what they spend their disposable income on or invest it in, they say Jordans, clothes, video games, hoes in the strip club, etc. Not business.

Cacs, Asians, Arabs, Latinos, etc may play but they get their work done first. They build together, not just post memes, and talk about what they're "gone" do one day.

As a group of men, we own the least amount of businesses out of all other men in the U.S. Fact.

Until black men start chasing entrepreneurship (and education) as much as we chase toys (I.e. sneakers, clothes, video games, etc) then we can't complain....it's like complaining about someone else not treating us right in the house they built for themselves (I.e. other races businesses) and STILL not building our own for ourselves :manny:



:banderas:You brought me to the next point so perfectly.









:rudy:Basically you're like all of the rest of these Negros, including myself. Who are pretty much waiting to attach theirself to something that's Official that's actually gettin things done. Uknow, like the Black Panthers or The Crips.








No person in their right mind that's Black actually stands by whole heartily by what you just said, even if it's been regurgitated by few from time to time. None of you actually believe that. That's why some of them are feeling some type of way about Obama over this Sexual Rights shyt.













I know what We want, it's not hard 2 figure out.

I think it's too far gone at this point.

I mean when u start talking about ownership and building and possibly being independent from the white man, nikkas get pissed and wanna attack you.

Cats have a hard time compartmentalizing their mind in this manner. When we think of successful black American, we think of a Black American with a"good job" working for a white person, driving a car he bought from a white owned dealership, that he pulls up and parks at his house which is in a predominantly white upper class neighborhood. That is what nikkas aren't getting. Ownership. SOME BLACK PPL WITH "GOOD JOBS" DOES NOTHING FOR THE COLLECTIVE BECAUSE THEY DONT BUILD OR OWN ANYTHING.

What do black men own or control?

We don't practice group economics

A "good job" working for a white boss isn't the same as owning a black business

A luxury car is nice but you still bought it from a white man/dealership

You moved into a "good" neighborhood that is full of mostly white ppl

It's like we've been programmed to believe that the highest level of success is to be paid well by the white man, instead of trying to get ownership of anything, we just wanna have a "good job" from a white boss, live around whites, buy our own individual trinkets/toys and not build anything for the rest of our race. And no that is not how other races/ethniticies operate. They start businesses and employ their people.

We think success is being paid a good salary by the white man, instead of having our own shyt. I never hear black men talking about their own business but I hear/see some so happy to have a low wage or decent at best job working for some old cac, so that they can move out of their neighborhood into a white one instead of trying to fix the old one up

The white man's ice isn't colder


I hear what you're saying but keep in mind the white man has built his empire from exploitation. It's not his ingenuity that got him the means to acquire the natural resources to build the businesses that thrives today but his ruthlessness. Whether we talk about multinational oil companies, the components that make a cell phone, big agri-business, etc. every step of the way he has used force or written legislation that has given him the cheat code to success.

"Behind every great fortune is a great crime"

Asking oppressed people to pull together what little resources we have and play fair at this point is asking us to play a rigged game. It's not impossible but we have to be realistic given the centuries long history of criminal theft and deceit we have to compete against.

I can tell your Counseling attributes need some brushing up on. You're still talking like you're in High School blaming Hip Hop.



You're basically in your 30s or 40s waiting on Teenagers who are looking up to you to lead the way.

Do I understand you correctly so far?




Well I can guarantee you that those Teenagers you're dissing probably draw from other inspirational sources bedsides Future. Even if that's who we all fukkin wit




So let's not use The Booth as an excuse for your inadequacies.

what does spiritual foundation even mean? what should we do spiritually breh? I'm all ears



Spiritual foundation can easily be crushed thru Violence, Manipulation, and Distortion.




So he's basically saying either go hide in a corner of your room and read a book on what you WISH that you could do. Or turn up and let go of some rounds or knock down the door of your Local Officials and DONT leave until you get what you want

I don't think we need a leader.

...we need to take responsibility and lead ourselves...help one another, and not use one another as a stepping stool...

that, better them than me, mentality has to go.


We need a code. We need to see another person that looks like us and instantly give them the benefit of the doubt...

Maybe some of y'all don't understand what I mean by "Leader".



A leader could mean a select group of people to handle our affairs so that eventually we can handle each and all of our affairs n practices. And in a realistic tangible and logical setting that's what it would be


And honestly, knowing Uncle Sam. That's probably been goin on. We're probably just in the dark about it all this time





But more is needed.








A code and all of that isn't exactly hard to apply, even with the thick skulls being breeded today. The only thing gettin in the way of that is something that we haven't been told by Figures we may or may NOT have heard of.

We need something for that.







Other than ransacking Congressional Sessions everyday I don't know what to say.

I mean bekuz eventually they'll shut that down. And then we'll just end up at their Office, and then that'll get Hot and some of us will leave. And then some of us will show up at Doorsteps of Homes, and that probably won't last long.


And by then we'll just be begging again.....








Yall see where im goin wit this.




This idea that the Black Man and Black Woman is that strong individually is retarded. God himself wouldn't even say that

We have historically been more successful with people like Patrice Lamumba, Malcolm x, Elijah Muhammad, masu mansa, MLK, etc....

LeadinG movements, revolutions, or nations.

We have not been successful in anyway ever without some sort of leader going back to ancient times.:yeshrug:


:whoa::whoa: but I know it makes us feel good and empowered to regurgitate the words of white liberals or black psuedo intelligencuals Who Have Never Done shyt Or Built Anything Tangible. ....... and say dumb shyt like

"We don't need no leader, we grown, we not no damn sheep, wezz the leaders now, nawmeans"




:camby:grow up.

Alotta us are the "show me" type.



nikkaz talk all of that "individualism" family dinner table shyt now but if they knew they could actually make a change (for the better), 99% of them would jump ship.




Us as African Americans getting the short end of the stick and never having the REAL opportunity to own shyt is bigger than a couple Euros. People who swear it's all about the money are just lost in the swag foreal.


And not to put it literally but Money is the optical illusion that they give people (all non-whites). The bigger scheme is Control, Power, Dictatorship, and Influence. That's the key. Having all of that truly provides for a better life for everyone. Even if you yourself are doing Great
