You are right. You stay speakin the ugly truth but nobody wants to acknowledge certain things when its brought up. Thats a problem in itself.

Don't worry, some people will just hate on that. I'm going to continue speaking the truth. Also

I totally don't see it. Seriously, I don't really I don't.

Many Black family members don't fvck with one another.
That's an issue

thats the problem. we should get the kids to help take care of and learn from their elders, help reconnect everyone to their distant relatives, organize more family reunions, mentor the younger generations, support small business owners in your family, support struggling relatives, make sure the patriarchs and matriarchs are getting the support they need from the next generation etc etc.
All these support each other talk is cool and been going on for the last 15 years, but it's not happening anytime soon
What is the reason for that?

Form community based groups to discuss and improve the uplift of peace in the community identifying grievances drawing up plans to tackle them from smallest to largest and then attaching these groups to regional based groups to support the community at large which creates bonds that are difficult To break friends. Get Email and home addresses and create mailing lists for updates and gatherings.
This can be difficult to do because we aren't friends.
It's difficult to do because being friends on this level requires feet on the ground knocking on doors and engaging people everywhere to get everyone on board.
It's hard work

Thats what Im trying to figure out
During this whole 'Justice for Peter Liang' debacle, Ive seen dudes on here commend the Chinese for 'sticking by each other.' By doing what exactly? Protesting? Holding up picket signs? You mean exactly what black people have been doing ad nauseam since Trayvon Martin? The whole "Black Lives Matter" is black people 'sticking by each other,' I don't think the issue here is that we don't have each others backs, people have been arrested, tazed, & teargassed, all in the name of black solidarity.
The real issue I believe is, like you said is that we do not have the influence, finances or enough political clout (at least not that equal of whites) to actually make changes on a national level. Not that we don't *~love each other enough*~

Exactly.
These brothers don't realise that making something out of everything just dilutes/distracts from the real issues.
