This is thecoli.com so i am expecting certain replies :russ: but...

Do you think you have more in common with people that share the same racial identification as you or socioeconomic class ? :whoo:(assume the person of your racial identification doesn't share your socioeconomic class and vice versa)

Socioeconomic class. Of course I feel the most affinity with people who share both with me, but my material interests trump identification with a social construct like race. How does it make sense for me to go hard in the paint so Michael Jordan can make more money or Tariq Nasheed can swindle us out of more money as opposed to building with my co-workers to further our mutual interests?

Nonetheless, when we're talking about solving class and racial issues, it is not possible to adequately address one without addressing the other. They are inextricably linked in the modern order.

I'd say they're pretty intertwined in the US sadly.

First off, dude fashioned himself as some kind of relationship expert (really, a womanizer) and has now rebranded himself as a historian and sociologist of racism :dead:

I watched the Hidden Colors films and there was some good content in there but also a ton of ahistorical and pseudoscientific nonsense. But he's passing all this stuff off on gullible nikkas and it's making him rich :deadmanny:

Race hustling is his bread and butter. Good on him for getting his paper up I guess :heh: but I don't fall for the bs. I find his views on women to be utterly detestable and he's selling a false bill of goods when it comes to the real origins and function of racism and what it will take to defeat it.

What are the REAL origins of racism? And what did tariq say it was?

And the thread is going off in another direction. Question was about individual experience. Intertwined for me. The issue of race always affects.

Class when you're on the lower rungs (as you will have a lot of White noise from all sides telling you smart and dumb shyt at the same time about race, but class actually effects how you're treated) and race when you're at the higher rungs (scarcity likely puts you in a bubble that fukks up your perspective and you should be about throwing that rope back down, even if people gave you so much shyt and doubt climbing up). You don't want to be the lone brother at some Red Wedding setup :lolbron:, and then they sprinkle crack on you or give you a PCP dose.
