Blame the iron fists of white supremacy and capitalism on its most vulnerable victims brehettes :francis:
I get that white supremacy and capitalism is the culprits but eventually there’s got to be a point where we understand we are all we got at the end of the day. Like right now with how white people are crashing out amongst each other this is an opportunity for blacks to come together and strategize how to maneuver to benefit ourselves. As long as cacs are on this planet it will always be a fight.

i knew negros will disregard the first part of the video

Stokley carmichael h rap brown both was being brought down by black c00ns who was selling out for the feds and you had in fighting within the panthers especially from east coast panthers to west coast panthers .. nobody was standing together

Come the 70s nobody wasn’t listening to the last of leaders and the malcolm and the MLK, Medgar Evers types was gone

Then she was right during the whole 80s especially here in Los Angeles these gang bangers didn’t want to hear from the elders because they was getting that quick drug money, the clothes, the cars so what the fukk u old people going to tell me
. That was the late boomers , gen x crack babies at the time… and u see the results of what we have today…

But go ahead and ignore that shyt

We as a people are down by 40 points to these whites and Asians on a large scale financially but black folks want to celebrate the few 3 pointers(Oprah, Jay, Obama) we have and think we gain traction…

If my daughter ever participated in some shyt like that I would feel that I failed as a father. Like watching her son trying and protect her and then getting jumped by other children that shyt had me fukked up. I dunno if you have kids or not but the shyt hits different when you have children.

You are looking at the future it’s sad to see where actions like these will lead some of these children.

The parents have to be called DIRECTLY to account.


The Parents should have their names and faces associated with this behavior to they can be incentivized to shapen their child the hell up

It’s funny to hear people claim they “giving up” on black America than try to justify it

Of course some of y’all on here agree with it but scared to say what it really is

What is it really?

This is new to me. I thought she only in white circles and only dated white men.

She makes a strong point though, so I wont shoot the messenger.

Sounds like a lot of obvious personal issues combined with other things ........this was something that started from a place of concern and transformed over time and combined with other things......imo

Nina frustrated but she don't know what she frustrated about. You're right for the most part.
