Yes it's true and i personally don't even try to talk to black men about building anymore. I used to but I feel like it's pointless now. And this is coming from a black man in my 20s with a small business

Well, I still try to talk to brehs about business and economics but unfortunately I can understand what u mean. I'm in my 20s too but probably a bit older than you. I definitely feel what Jason Black has said about black men & our general mentalities towards building. I've experienced it firsthand.

Another deflection. The bitterness came through. They will all expose themselves eventually

Can you say the same for asian women though??....:sas1:.....

No. But her point was, despite what some of their women may do, Asian men still do it anyway (have Asian pride and build for their race), instead of making a million excuses. :manny: Just look how many more businesses they own, and how they have long surpassed Black men.

Instead of constantly kicking the black woman and mocking her by saying "White men pay me more than he pays you haha", black men should be trying to build our own shyt (black businesses, build up our houses/neighborhoods, etc) and help elevate our race of women and children. We would get more respect as a collective of men if we actually did this on a scale that other men do.

Not building for black people (especially women and kids), creating a bunch of single parent homes, and acting like/proclaiming that other races of women are just as good as black women, has not helped black men advance economically. Asian men, White men, Arab men, even Latino men get more respect in society than black men now and this is a big reason why. Not the only reason but definitely a factor. The Black American male collective are currently not builders and as a group do not own, produce or provide resources that anyone really needs.

Not building, and actually mocking black women for getting paid less money from our white male bosses, is not respectable in any way.

Putting down black women for their earnings is something I see far too many black men do, but we don't see how our treatment of black women and children is correlated to our position and how we are perceived and treated in society.

anybody who focuses on race is ignorant. Race should not be a factor when it comes to dating, or anything in life for that matter. We are all humans, and should love on another as such.

People who think, that because you date someone outside race, means you don't like your own race are ignorant.

Race DOES NOT exist. It was created by mankind as a system to oppress and elevate people who look a certain way.

There was a time period, where the color of your skin meant NOTHING at all.

Realize that two "white" people can genetically be more different than if they compared themselves to a "black" person.

The girl who wrote that, no matter what "race" she is is very very ignorant

In fact by her insinuating that it is necessary to build for your own "race", shows that she is just another victim of "white" brainwashing. It's sad.

Scientifically, race does not exist but race is definitely real and has a huge impact on all of our lives:yeshrug:

I dont care for the tone.
shyt is counterproductive and I can see in advance where this thread is headed.

We need to work together as bw and bm to progress. Stats are stats -ie more bw with degrees, bm earning more
But none of that means anythino unless we start to work and build together.

I refuse to get dragged down into this devil inspired bw v bm bullshyt.
What she said.

It doesn't have to, if you have a strong mind. How you "carry" yourself is what has the most impact on your life.

In the context of what that girl was talking about "race" should have no correlation. That whole thing about building a family within your own race is pure ignorance.

Build a family with someone you love and have a deep connection with. It shouldn't matter not one bit what color their skin is . that changes NOTHING

I mean there's truth to it.

But the thing with it is some black women forget how white men built what they did. It was basically of the enslavement and mass genocide of her ancestors.

So when you start championing what whites built, you're implicitly endorsing slavery:francis:

Im not against interracial relationships but no matter what degree you got, where you grew up, where you live now, money you make, country you or your parents are from, or white girls you have sex with, most people will see you as black first and it will effect you. You cant do anything about the racial gap if you dont acknowledge race.

Don't you get it. It CANNOT effect you, I don't care that some people see me as black first. If that's the reason you don't like me cool, just know I won't hate you for feeling like that cause you're only human. As long has you don't physically harm me in anyway, then I'm cool with you. We don't have to talk.

I know many young and successful black people, they got the same opportunities as any other race, because they had this attitude. They never let someone racial beliefs effect their personal lives and mind..

Just go do some research on black people who come to USA from other countries.

You will see, they make more money, have more wealth on average, own more businesses, have better academic averages in terms of grades and the percentage of them that have degrees.

Now also do some research on black people who were born in the USA, but have parents from other countries and you will see the same trend.

Black people from other countries don't have the same view as you stated there in your post. They set goals and achieve what they want.

Its not that they're smarter or anything, is just all about the their attitude, strong minds, and the way they carry themselves.

Yes, a lot of people are racist in this country. Just have a strong mind and that won't effect you in anyway, unless someone actually harmed you in a physical manner.

Also being racist, because someone else is being racist (as you guys do on here, for the most part) is a counterproductive in every way and unnecessary.

It's hard to believe some of you are grown men and women:dahell:

Affect versus effect.
