My family lives in a good area and we are working class/own a home.

you missed my point breh....im not talking about working class....

financial freedom will not be won by working a job everyday...and besides with a job...you cant help anyone but your immediate family

im talking about doing something to impact our community....

we need some people to step out and build businesses and create jobs

You can't just start a business just like that. Also, you have to be pragmatic and learn skills (I'm doing that), then go back to school. By 30, I'd start my own small family business while having a career working in the Human Services/Political field.

why can't you? who told you you couldn't?

all businesses don't have to be brick and mortar....atleast at the beginning they don't

my advice...dont wait....

why do you have to go back to school? to learn what? google is free...youtube is free....a lot of colleges are offering free online courses.....

dont make excuses breh...and dont wait

Older people really aren't trying to hear that shyt. They believe in respectability politics. They don't understand why these nikkas killing each other and dont have jobs
Its mire nuanced than that but older people dont give a fukk.

I want my degree that's why. Also, Rome wasn't built in a day. You learn skills and apply them later on to start your business or whatnot. I have to be pragmatic.

While we were in the car a few minutes ago he said he wasn't responsible for getting me to and from work :russ: So, the convo turned into me talking about how Whites pass down their generational wealth/and or businesses to their children. He said we can't compare that to our struggle. I said okay, but you were talking about BOB crime :snoop: last week. Pops, "Well, they do kill each other :youngsabo:". I told him that was a WS argument. Then, I asked him how did he think it begun. Also, I told him that it was the CIA who distributed crack into our AA communities to break up the Black home AKA genocide against Blacks. After that he asked, "What do you think will help Blacks?". I said, "A true democratic platform where Black communities can get invested in without gentrification". His last response was, "People been saying that for years :snoop:".

THIS DEFEATIST azz mindset is a problem. I'm glad that I had a good infrastructure of people to help me along the way. Hell, my parents are yuck at me that I'm not a Baptist Christian anymore. I hope that our people (old generation) will wake up.

Did he call you a lazy sell out b*stard and put your bum ass out the car and make you walk home..........:troll:...........be upset cause your pops is tired of picking your bum ass up for work like he's your personal chauffeur brehs.
