Tariq Nasheed-Are Black People Dancing Too Much?

[Wild self]

THIS. These silly ass femenist hoes need to take their bullshyt back to tumblr. "You aren't entitled to black women." Right, so white boys are? Go fukk yourself. This black male slander gotta stop.

90% of the shyt that non rich swagged out black men get shytted on for, the white man can do it to them and take it with a smile.

 

[Wildin]

You're either a buck dancing soft shoeing c00n, or an angry black man. Im an angry black man.

 

[Gold]

I agree with him to an extent

Its not our expressiveness that's an issue, its when we do it at the behest of white people for entertainment/acceptance that is a problem.
As if we cannot communicate without some sing-song dance bullshyt.

Look at Hillary Clinton

I'm Nigerian, we dance all the time.
-Church
-Wakes
-Funerals

Basically times when everyone else would be solemn or serious. And we make no apologies for it. So he can FOH with telling Africans not to dance

But let a white man come up to me and say "Show me how to shoki "




And that goes for everyone whippin and nae-nae'ing for these cacs too


TL;DR: Be expressive if you want, have fun if you want, but be mindful of the company you keep and if you are being used or not.

What if you're dancing with a black woman

Tariq is solution oriented. He has given tips to open buisnesses and money making ideas. Dont see whats with thr hate on Tariq.

My only criticism of Tariq's take on Ron Clark is that there is a lot more going on at his school than dancing.

Is he getting results academically?

Are those black children and parents benefitting from the education they getting at his academy?

If so, then if you work hard than you should play hard. If all those girls are getting great grades, are happy, protected, and enjoying their school, let them have fun.

Doing the nae nae though?

Peace

I resent the idea that black people aren't allowed to have "fun" or enjoy ourselves in public. I think it's a mindset that's difficult to get rid of because we face so many daily attrocities I.e. racism, underemployment, over incarceration, etc. So there's this undrlying idea that we aren't entitled to fun until all our woes r resolved. But that's an unfair burden to place on someone. Black ppl are just as entitled to have to a good time as anyone else. We can laugh, joke, dance, goof off, be loud and silly as we see fit and regardless of whose around. Who is this guy or anyone else to take away or condemn someone for trying to have a good time. The pursuit of happiness is a human and God given right and black ppl deserve that just as much as anybody else, if not more.

The problem is that black people engage in too much escapism via dancing, clubbing, shopping, rapping, etc. Moreso than other groups. And comparatively, we're in WAY WORSE condition than those groups in terms of economics and politics.

So, when black people are in comparable terms of wealth ownership and political strength, then dance as much as you want. But blacks are and have been under the thumb of white supremacy for hundreds of years now.

How is dancing helping us to solve the problems we experience as a result of white supremacy? Which are the culprit for all the ills you listed.

And? May not be the best but it's ours.

Black women aren't required to pursue black men over white men, or even acknowledge them over white men. Black women's bodies and attractions belong to them and them along. Get away from this idea that you have "dibs" on the black woman's sexuality or that she can/should only pursue a non black after the black man has given her permission

Would the way worse explain the escapism?

 

[mcdivit85]

And? May not be the best but it's ours.

Ours? Where's the copyright? And who gets paid whenever the song comes on?

Unless a black owned corporation completed a hostile takeover that I don't know about, Universal Music Group owns that song and any royalties associated therewith.

I believe it would. But that does not make it beneficial to black population's pursuit of self determination. Just because I can understand why someone wants to drink themselves to sleep, doesn't mean that doing so is beneficial to their life and/or their survival.

It's true...Tariq was much more successful and profitable as the Mack/Pimp than the pro-black conscious dude

He's been on VH1 Charm School, MADE, and some other shows, and he got pitched to by networks for his own dating/mack shows, but said no because they wanted him to c00n

being conscious actually hurt his pockets but he said he'd rather be on some pro-black shyt and lose the dollars than to be a c00n

Who said you were required? Wtf lol
Lol again, wtf? Where are you going with this...

Now it all makes sense lol, I'm trynna tell you bruhs about these "black feminists"
Peep game when they tell on themselves.

1. I don't think u r qualified to speak for the entire black "community" as different black ppl will react to different experiences differently. There is no typical black response

2. Ppl notice things that they perceive to be different or "against the rules." That's why if u were to see 2 Black ppl walking down the street holding hands youd be less inclined to do a double take whereas if u saw a black woman and an Asian man walking down the street u might do a double take because your mental standard is black and black, and any deviation from that jumps out at you. My point is that you should move ur mental standard such that black man and black woman is not the standard for ur mental comparison. No one is entitled to anyone. Everybody is for everybody

If you wanna be Olivia Pope do your thing bruhette
