I dont think they tell us the real percent of blacks in the U.S. and never will. Why would they let us know were the majority etc.. Its strength in numbers. I feel we make up waaay more than just 15% of the population. Whites dont make babies as much as us. And if it wasnt for abortions we would definitely be the majority right now

Bro. We're not the majority. Or close to it.
Houston culturally is majority AA/black despite them being the minority(%23) demographic
First music scene- Blues
Oldest park- Emancipation Park(oldest in TX as well)
Most popular music scene- Hip Hop
Signature music style- Chopped and Screwed
Signature car culture- Slabs
Signature college sporting event- Labour Day Classic
Signature narcotic- Drank
Signature BBQ style- (South)East TX, which is firmly rooted in AA traditions
3 of the 10 most popular nicknames, including the #1 most popular nickname for the city(H town) were coined by the urban AA community.

H-town is even more popular on the ground and in media than the officially recognized nicknames like Space city and Bayou city.
The city would have almost zero identity without us.

Because we’re (AAs) more extroverted on average
Because black immigrants up there tend to keep a low profile not wanting to attract a lot of attention to themselves. Boston almost feels European or Canadian to me
Anyone who’s driven around the country knows these remarks are bullshyt. This country is so white it’s ridiculous. Whites have a presence in 90-95 pct of countys in America. Meanwhile there are large swathes of America where black people are like aliens. I’m talking places 45 minutes away from major cities let alone the boondocks
I'm saying. People forget how white the rest of this country is.It’s like 30 states with less than 10% Black
Outside of the south we only exist in a few other states and only in the major metropolitan areas in those states.

Yup...that unfukkwittable energy is too skrong
Its because we're the chosen people
ITS BECAUSE TOURIST CITIES USUALLY HAVE OUR LARGER BLACK POPULATIONS. GO TO TOURIST ATTRACTIONS OUTSIDE OF THE CITY AND YOU SEE THE DIFFERENCE.
NEXT TIME YOU FEEL LIKE WE HAVE AN OVERWHELMING PRESENCE GET IN A CAR AND DRIVE 1HR IN ANY DIRECTION AND TELL ME WHAT YOU SEE.

Black people tend to congregate more than others. Also while civil, our conversations can give off the illusion of conflict, to others not use to our ways. Folks probably on your head about this, but this is real shyt. I went to a small PWI in the country and if you sat outside you would think that shyt was an HBCU. lol
That because we don’t live in areas that we are only 13%.
