Why are wealthy / surburban black people seen as LESS black?

[Collateral]

Black people don't look at other black people living in suburban areas as "less black" for the most part. Wealthy black people is different whether it be because of our crabs in a barrel mentality we have towards each other, or those wealthy people are just c00ns. You see a lot of wealthy black folks on that tip because they think once they got money, white supremacy makes an exception for them and they then feel accept. c00ns are less black to me, pro black wealthy people, or black folks living in the burbs are just as black as anyone else

wealthy blacks look down on less fortunate blacks



oh and

Terrible example, that could be a cac

Lol I was half joking but I doubt it.

How would you know how black ppl in burbs behave? Isnt it more c00nish to want to be in poverty and government housing? Isnt it more c00nish to want to be in areas riddled with crime?

Lol now you're starting to sound like a c00n yourself. No black person wants to be live in public housing, or in areas riddled with crime. and you insinuating such is making you look pretty right now. They live there because that's their circumstances.

Because you have some that think their wealth and class excludes them from racism and Dwight Mann will see beyond their color.

I taught my black kids that their elite upbringing would protect them from discrimination. I was wrong.

Wheres your evidence for this?

Just my personal observations between living in ATL, West Philly, Delco Burbs & Jackson. Despite the different zip codes I kept seeing the same dynamics playing out.

Probably because it's where the "I'm better than and above other Black People (because I'm living in a non-Black area)" mindset stems from.

I think the association of poverty with being black is one of the worst mindfukks that have ever been placed on black folk.

 

[ignorethis]

Because the failures of our race have vested interest in tying blackness to mediocrity and failure.

I think the more suburbanized you are the more whitewashed you tend to be....

Keep hearing that phrase knowledge of self and it applies here...

If your a black guy who grew up nestled in white suburbia, dated white girls and been around white people and then your thrown against a culture your family members came from it might be alien to you, because maybe you cant relate....

There are people who dont know how to be black... shyt is fukked up....

Like look at carlton on fresh prince... there was moments where he was so whitewashed he didn't even understand racism....

Their parents failed them, these generations of black suburbanite kids... they have no knowledge of self...

How would you know what they think?

I'm obviously generalizing. Just interacting with black people from different upbringings and levels of wealth shows this. Not every black person from the burbs has their nose in the air. Especially times like these, you see more and more black people coming together and uplifting one another

Nah...suburban nikkas be the main ones on some try hard hood shyt


real shyt this is a projection underachievers have. Always sensitive to someone thinking they're better than them.

So so true
