YOU ACTUALLY ONLY REPLIED TO 2 OF THE 6 STATEMENTS I MADE... are you actually gonna acknowledge the other points?

The capitalists wanted blacks integrated into society so they could take ALL our money, as they do. That was a BIG BIG BIG BIG pay day for major corporations

You're believing the hype that the western standard of living is the BEST standard of living, when we both know this society is fukked

whats stopping us from economic self reliance is we see no value in self. we're under the illusion that the search for justice is over and everything is sunshine and rainbows so its not a necessity for us to unite

This whole sherade of the INTEGRATED society is stopping us from seeing the importance of racial unity in the modern day, while the media represent this image of racial equality while real life is very very very different.


You're not wrong in anything you're saying. Your just wrong in your misguided criticism of mlk. He made mistakes like we all have and you can't recognize that he died trying to right his wrongs. You act like he shouldn't be praised. I don't agree

I know I'm not wrong in what I'm saying, coz I have vast knowledge in what i speak off

He did die trying to right his wrongs but so what...

why you gonna praise the man who led your people into a burning house

especially when the ultimate reason he is exalted is for the act of leading your people into the burning house

He can not be praised for being a great leader of black men, when his action was the greatest obstacle of the black man

flawed logic

Integrated society isn't forcing us to spend how we spend or do what we do. We simply CHOOSE not to spend amongst each other or work together more economically... or are you saying 'the white man' is so powerful he is controlling our minds and preventing us from starting businesses together and handling fiscal matters responsibly? If there is a better standard of living out there for the black man, there is nothing stopping us from getting our passport, getting on a plane and going to that other land. The white man isn't putting a gun to our head and forcing us to engage in consumerism. Anyone who engages in it chooses to embrace that mentality.

There is nothing stopping blacks from getting together, buying some financial books, reading them and coming together to form an investment club or to start up a business. The reality of the matter is we'll see 4 or 5 Mexicans living together, shopping at Ross, cutting grass and clown them for it... that is until they've stacked enough money to start their own lawn care business and they're eating well and hiring their own. We'll clown that Nigerian for his accent and 'looking dusty' until all of that nonstop studying pays off and he has his Ph.D and is eating well. Is there racism here? Absolutely. Is it so prevalent as to keep us from being economically self-reliant if we so choose to be? Nah.

Social Engineering? Propaganda? Black Self Hate? are these all theoretical concepts?.... you have no idea what you're talking about

Another mistake I see, you're obviously not differentiating covert and overt racism

How can you really relate

Think about what you're saying, the black man all over the world is oppressed and at the bottom of the social order. Even in our own countries!!

Also being a Descendent of those enslaved Africans who now resides in "Western Society" I can relate all too well. We both know the paralells between our adopted countries regimes

A common sign in London during the 50/60s

And lastly, me not being American doesn't harm my credibility whatsoever, because my knowledge of Black History in America still far exceeds that of the average African- American or anyone participating in this discussion.

I study and research all of this thoroughly, most people in this thread just talking to past time.

Best believe we get 'MLK, Integration and Civil Rights thrown in our face as something to automatically praise as a black person without asking questions' as much as you. From infant age and upwards lol

Us as black people often forget the parallels of our struggle, regardless of where we are in the world. That good old divide and conquer routine they play us with

There is oppression to blacks worldwide. But our experiences are different. America and its relationship with blacks is completely different than anywhere else. Just like with south Africa, the Caribbean etc. MLK and the civil rights movement is part of the fabric of African American culture

Same here! lol you're reading my posts but its not sinking in. Just like how Hip Hop is part of the fabric of Black British culture... like I said, with the paralells between the regimes of our respective countries come 'cultural' paralells too.

How so? This sounds like more divide and conquer techniques they use to keep us apart. We all face the same problems breh

Got us thinking the Largest populations of Blacks outside of Africa isn't in South America... Panama, Columbia, Brazil, Suriname etc etc. Little is known that the majority of stolen Africans were sent to South American mainland. While less than 10% of enslaved Africans were sent to the USA

Americas treatment of blacks is different to nowhere else. All Western Regimes work within collusion of eachother, so they impliment the same systems

Hence why you didnt see Western Intervention in South Africa under apartheid. But they be everywhere else handing out "democracy" and "humanitarian aid" in the name of justice

What do you think the agenda was at them marketing Slavery as a "USA thing"?

Coz they know once we realise we're all soldiers of the same struggle we'll start relating and coming together

Don't fall into the trap of subjecting your own people (providing you're black :wtb:). Thats what they want you to do
