Do you think there will ever be a time where everyone is treated at least fairly based off skin color? If not what are the solutions to living in a racist society?

Do you think there will still be problems with racism 200-300 years from now? Or will there be some futuristic thing that lets people choose how they look/their race like that "designer" babies crap.

doubt it but if theres a slim chance of it happening it would have to be because an entire new generation of people was born without knowledge of past history and also things equivalent to todays mainstream rap music would have to not be allowed to exist because it perpetuates negative stereotypes against certain groups of people creating fear and hatred towards those groups just like todays hiphop creates fear and hatred towards black people.

Quick clarification. Racism is a system brought about by bigotry. The system itself is very possible to remove, but not bigotry.

That said, humans will always find a way. The difference is, the systemic advantages can be eliminated....or more likely, replaced with other advantages by another or
the same group.:yeshrug:There will forever be petty division based on very stupid, very superficial shyt. The next wave may be something other than White Supremacy.

NO

Promote education and CONTROL resources for your community.Racism is about control...you combat it by taking control of as much as you can. EVERYTHING else is bullshyt and hot air.

Yes...some type of prejudice will always exist in the world....replace "race" with some other factor...and yes it will always exist.

Even in existing societies that are racially/ethnically homogeneous....there are "isms".People will always find things to judge and discriminate others about. Test tube babies will argue about whether they were created in glass or plastic test tubes.

Yes, but like you said it would 300 years from now. Probably more. Half a millenia of hatred is some heavy shyt to recitify. That type of thing has cycles anyway. First, your religion mattered first and determined your acceptance or hatred. Then, it was your color with religion being a secondary judgment. As we grow more and more secular as a species and more gender fluid, over the next millenia your gender/fluidity/sexual orientation will be the primary card with ethnicity second.

When I win I bring we with me
:patrice:
I don't like the use of the term "racism" ...now "systemic racism" is about as close as I can vibe with as a means to analyze our plight. I'm not concerned that someone in mongolia is "racist" against African peoples because Mongolians don't don't have the political, economical, military, academic, and cultural leverage to impact African peoples. Likewise I don't care so much about "racism" from Europeans as much as I care about Europeans ability to leverage their political, economical, military, academic, and cultural systems to undermine us. Once that leverage is brken I'd wouldn't care less about what they thought one way or the other ...same as the hypothetical Mongolian. :jbhmm::yeshrug:


To that end my take has always been thus...

3. Most importantly my political position is that we need to finish correcting our cumulative historical projection.
End transatlantic slave trade (Done)


End the formal institution of chattel slavery(Done)

-I look at the modern prison complex as it's own demon*

End overarching wide scale political division of African people(Done)

-current tribalism levels doesn't trump the current pan-african / African Union / regional, continental, & diasporic integration consciousness and thrust

End governmental colonialism(Done)


End academic(mental/spiritual) colonialism(initiated)
-Reconstruction of an African worldview(definitions of reality, values, principles, etc)

End economic colonialism(initiated)

Have capacity to fund all political actions
Have the capacity to extract, process, and manufacture all the goods Africa needs with the resources in the ground
Have the capacity to move all goods around the continent and trade internally.
Be independent of all non-African owned NGOs, production, and/or extraction corporations only leaving foreign(sellers, traders, and tourist).
Have a resource depot for surpluses in the Caribbean, Seychelles/Mauritius, and Kerkennah Islands.(Sale surpluses after domestic needs met)
Diaspora wholesale purchase surplus and use global sale of goods from depots as base financial revenue generator to maintain economic independence/sovereignty of global African peoples.

End military deficiency(initiated)

- gain policing, military powers, and the ability to enforce law. Grow capacity to deal with the total array of threats land, sea, air, cyber, biological, etc.







:jbhmm:In street terms
Me building in a cac city is hustling backwards :to:

....in terms of governance & economics. My employment opportunities needs to go to "my people", my tax funds need to go to "my people" & my political donations needs to go to making sure "my peoples" political candidates(and their policy maneuvers) are not beholden to "alien" financiers.
Whatever people conceive of as "racism" is simply the effects of one of the above not being completed.

Example:
In response to being enslaved on a plantation I'm not worried about ending some abstract notion of "racism" I'm worried about ending the laws, commerce, and enforcement mechanisms that make up the slavery system.

In simple terms "racism" is to sloppy and imprecise a term for me to use. It reminds me of when activist yell for "justice" but can't name one specific law they want changed, created, or abolished.

Humans have existed for a very long time.

Humans have had cross cultural contact for a very minuscule amount of time in comparison with how long we have existed. We’re in the infancy of integration. Eventually we’ll figure it out.

On an individual level, I say no. On an economical level, there's a chance. But it has to be when there's a level playing field for all people. Like when the population is evenly spread out and so are the income levels. Cuz I think it won't matter if one group is majority population, they'll still try to over power the other groups or receive hate from them. Not everyone considers everyone else their equals. So no, I doubt that racism will ever go away completely. Humans will likely always hate those that are different. Sometimes even from their own race.

Any white person that yells justice gets an automatic side-eye. Bill Clinton fukked up a lot of Black families with his 3 strikes bullshyt. Drug laws as whole are slanted against Black people.
Like you said we have to rely on ourselves and build with each other. The problem is, when Black people tried that, white people made it a point to destroy it.

That's why there will never be an NFL boycott by the players, because it's about money, they are not going to miss a game check for something they feel doesn't affect them directly.
