Nope it's true, and needed to be said, because nikkas of all ages love to talk about how pitiful millennials are, and pretend like old nikkas are so much better...how are they better? What did they do? Old nikkas dropped the ball majorly and are a big reason black millenials are behind other races. They act like it's inherently our fault :mjlol: It is what it is though. I try to tell other nikkas my age to do the opposite of what our "elders" did i.e. relying on cacs (who rather see you starve, as a black male) for a job for the rest of your life and not passing anything down to your kids. That's what most of them did and still believe in doing, so i don't listen to their "advice", they don't even understand the system, what they were supposed to do as a parent, or what's going on
My brother, I don't really care to engage in shyt like that. The long and short is that both generations were fukked over and they both had their own problems to deal with. Learn from your elders, build with them if you can, and if not keep it moving. I don't care to hear old heads run their mouth about the glory days and how we ain't shyt but that's really all some of these dudes have. It's literally their rope.

There are black people alive right now that remember what it was like when the community did for self, owned their homes and businesses , and didn't have rampant drugs and crime. I'd like to talk to those guys before the idea of a successful black community in America dies with them

Just be black...our existence and circumstances are totally unique on this earth. Asians. Africans, Indians,etc... Come from cultures that are thousands of years old... As we know because of slavery, our way of life has its genesis in bondage a mere 440 years ago... They didn't because they didn't know how... Simple as that... Do you think your parents would deny you that knowledge? They gave what they can... They criticize because that's what older people do,misunderstand the new. You don't face their obstacles, and they don't face yours, but how do you hate your own origin? That rant sounded real bratty and selfish

OP right, but nikkas don't realize that the older generations didn't intended for it to be like that. They failed, but nobody intends to fail.

Now it's up to the younger generations to get it out the mud and make it happen so in 40 years the youth won't be saying "damn the generation before us didn't leave anything for us"

I've had to learn to accept that myself. I've notice that most older people who've actually accomplished something in life aren't on that "I hate the younger generation" shyt. Older people who feel that they've fulfilled their life's purpose try to help the younger generation, instead of giving criticism and never offering solutions. A person who's never accomplished shyt can't really help you in the first place, except showing you what not to do

This is the type of dialogue I like to see on the coli.

I don't think the baby boomer gen was THAT bad. I think they fared well given the circumstances of unequal rights and segregation. But once we came out of the civil rights movement and started to gain ground, snares were put in place to hinder Gen X and many just settled as opposed to continuing the trend upwards.

Blaxploitation movies was a huge one media wise

Locally it was the denial of Loans and continued promotion of broken family's

Nobody ever wants to blame themselves for their own failure. It's easier to try to hinder others from succeeding

I'm not coming to you in any sort of confrontational manner, all I did was ask a couple questions. Yeah, I definitely have people I can ask irl, but I figured you (or anybody else on this site) may be able to give me some info I may not otherwise get. I see what type of shyt you're on, never mind me asking
