We not only need black business. We need black suppliers and products for the businesses. We have a long way to go and no unity as of now. We need to worry about family structure and a stable community before we even think about group economics at this point. The last 30-40 years (feminist/crack eras) have brought us back 100 years. It is gonna take selflessness from our community that we simple do not have at this point
We can work on changing our economic condition while investing time to stabilize our family structure. We can kill two birds with one stone.

No I have not, please educate me and expand my brotha.
You can't use their philosophy of "economics " to further an agenda that is contrary to their beliefs. You just cant. Economic growth is built on the exploitation of others. Your interest free loans idea has to get bushed. You cited the Jews. The Jews were running around black communities charging them an exorbitant fee just so some blacks could live the white life. You're trying to beat the devil at his own game. That's why you will continue to lose. If you want to beat these cacs, keep your head in those books but keep an eye on them. They can be defeated. Hell, they're getting their Butts kicked right now.

This is my first thread on the Coli and really I have a simple question. Is group economics the answer to the African American plight and struggle. In my personal opinion I think group economics and reinventing ourselves as a financial power/collective is enough to improve our conditions and solve our problems...do you think its enough or does more/something else need to be done.? Dr Claude Anderson gives (IMO) the simplest and best explanation of group economics and its potential to help black people. (video below)


DONT HAVE ALL THE ANSWERS BUT IMO

ITS ONE OF MANY SHIFTS THAT HAVE TO BEEN DONE THIS GENERATION AND HAVING A BLACK ECONOMY IS KEY COMPONENT IN BRINGING FORTH OTHER SOLUTIONS , WITHOUT THAT OTHER SOLUTIONS WILL NOT WORK AS FLUILDLY .


CREATING COMMEMORATE CORPORATIONS OWNED AND RUN BY BLACK PEOPLE , POLITICANS THAT WILL SUPPORT GOALS WE SET ( SO CREATING LOBBYIST GROUPS AND PRESSURE GROUPS) , INVESTMENT IN BLACK COMPANIES THAT ARE FOCUSED ON GOING GLOBAL , INSTITUTIONS , BUILDING STEM SCHOOLS . AND MIGHT HAVE TO REPLACE , THE SO CALLED BLACK LEADERS WHO ARENT PRODUCING RESULTS

EDIT: MIGHT HAVE TO START LOOKING INTO BUILDING PRIVATE MILITARY COMPANIES AS WELL REMEMBER WHAT HAPPENED TO BLACK WALL STREET WHEN YOU DON'T HAVE OFFENSE PRESENCES .

EDIT2: CREATING A MAJOR BANK WOULD ALSO BE KEY IN PROGRESSING AS IT WOULD ALLOW INITIAL START UP COSTS FOR BLACK PEOPLE WHO WANT TO START THEIR OWN BUSINESS AND NEED LOANS . AND MORE

Yeah I think a change had to be mad in the collective thought process of African Americans as well as us implementing group economics. And I agree with you about new black leaders, I feel as if our current ones cant even get the younger generation to listen to them for a second smh its crazy.

of we need money and political power BUT it needs to be balanced with DEFENSE

I mean, its pointless to have so called money power if you have nobody there to protect it from outsiders...

Tulsa, OK. is a PRIME example of what happens when you have money and power but no protection and defense...

white folks come in and tear and burn shyt to the ground.

no, it wont solve all our problems. infact, an economically prosperous black community will threaten cacs and start an entirely different battle.

and like I said, that's when the defense should kick in,

we need our own police like army.

like Jason black said, we need to connect outside the country for resources.

We need more nuclear families.

The matriarchal structure of our community needs to turn patriarchal for any progress. You can't expect women to lead a community of men with no fathers in their life. This is gonna take sacrifice from us men. We are so comfortable in our "hit it and quit relationships" that the birth control/eugenics/feminists movements gave us.

Education. We need to start there. Start challenging the educational structures in impoverished areas for improvement.

Alot of these youngins are straight up being born with no chance to succeed.

I thought about that, I think the only reason some people might oppose it, is they think of "segregation" when thinking of schools for blacks. But I think maybe seperate schooling might be great to instill values and knowledge in our youth that they arent receiving in regular schools.

HBCUs, on the whole, offer subpar education. Not to mention, the administrations of those respective schools are very sloppy.

However, the idea/mission statement behind them is optimal.
