There aren't even 400,000 black families worth $1 mil, why do we think we just need to work harder?

Let's be real a lot of our people ain't doing shyt to improve their lives. Look at Tariq he is a guy that speak on white supramacy and he lives better than most. Why because he works hard at what he does he does not let someone hold him back from doing something he wants.

Any time nikkas wanna bump they gums about how "black folk is/was weak" please direct them to this aspect of our history. It'll leave you beaming with pride breh. I got book recs if you want some

Wait what?

Capitalism isn't beneficial for the progress of us as a people at this point in time in History

He was already a millionaire and had a large fanbase from his macking phase.

This is a subject that many blacks don't want to see or are afraid to discuss, for every breh doing good has another 10000 or more in the most complete poverty with zero generational wealth. Not for lack of effort but because the system is made to keep us down.

Reversing a game that has shaped for centuries can take forever or not even happen :snoopbald:

Is that by person or by household?

The head of the family, so by person.

There are several studies showing the same statistics in all economic segments, always with blacks at the bottom of the barrel.

As you can see, the numbers are not encouraging at all :snoopbald:

Clearly blacks are being sabotaged, the problem goes beyond just studying and working hard :jbembarass:

working hard WILL help, but you have to work hard at the right thing. Only certain professions will pay decently nowadays, and if anything, we should be applying that hard work at starting our own businesses. These corporations will take all of the proceeds from your extra hard work and give you nothing in return.

If you live in America, you have all the opportunity in the world to change your life if you want. You can post stats all day that are already widely known unless you been living under a rock your whole life or you can take action and change your situation. As a breh a couple posts above said, it's not simply working harder. It's working harder at the right things that will elevate you

And stop this "we don't have access to capital" bullshyt. The Internet has proven over and over you don't need any serious capital to start a profitable business. No more than $100 maybe to buy a domain name and webhost

White folks kill me with that "started from my garage/basement" bullshyt. While that may be technically true, Privilege and supremacy is what got them out and operating on a much larger scale.

A black man would catch hell.

We are being sabotaged and there is nothing that will be done. That's why we have to prioritise the young brehs and brehettes to study law, medicine, stem and become entrepreneurs.

This.

I mean systemic racism is still in play, but the information age has made it so that you can learn the most profitable skills in existence for free.

See a long time ago...a White man came to a slave one day...and said..."If you work harder, you're reward will be in heaven..."

Then a White man came to a sharecropper one day...and said..."If you work hard, you can have your own farm..."

Then a White man came to a maid and a bellhop one day and said..."If you work hard, you can have your own home..."

You see where I am going with this...

Nobody works harder than a slave and a wage laborer...

Nobody...

But for some reason nikkas think if you just work hard and shyt, good things will happen to you, that there is some type of award. Which isn't true, wealth is made through luck and opportunity. Not hardwork. The capabilities to build Wealth is made through innovations in technology which is often publicly funded like the Internet. It is a pity that tax dollars built the internet but only a handful of people are massively reaping the benefits of it and enriching themselves.

If you wasn't into the Transatlantic Slave trade in anyway or form, you was a broke motherfukker...

If you wasn't building factories during the Industrial Revolution, you was a broke motherfukker...

If you wasn't building railroads during the expansion out West, you was a broker motherfukker...

And so and so...

To be rich, to be wealthy under capitalism you must secure the means of production that creates goods and services everything else depends on...

Like right now...

If you wasn't leveraging the Internet to distribute goods and services during the 90s and early 2000s...you gonna be a broke boy...

And being Black...we don't have access to capital that Whites got, so we always gonna be left out...

The only solution to our problem is socialism/communism...and taking capital from White people and distributing it evenly...and stop playing the Zero-Sum game and telling people..."fukk you I got mine, work hard..."
You ain't lying....sometimes I get irritated at work due to others getting more opportunities & advances strictly off who they know or cool with.

Not one of em produce like I do.....

Something in me won't allow to play the politics game tho.
