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

[Kuwka_Atcha_Ratcha]

I would say that being a successful Blackman and presenting your true self is such a difficult thing, because you have to be many things to so many people. Take Warren Buffet for instance. Who you see him as is most likely who he is. Everyone he interacts with essentially get the same person. But now take a Jay Z. To the hood he has to be hood, to corporate America he has to be corporate, to middle America he has to have safe appeal. Always adapting to each environment.

That's thing thing about being successful and black in America, we have to transform to meet everyone's expectations constantly. Especially if the environment we came from is the hood. Like fukking chameleons and shyt. We have to be in so many different environments and need to always adapt to each one.

Drift to far in one way, like the claim made about suburban cats and you get labeled. Crazy when you think about it.

Jayz didnt transform he matured

I dunno where you guys get these theories from you all act as if cacs are the gatekeepers and the only way to access wealth is to dance for the cacs.

Irony is alot of wealthy black people i know are way more concious than black people from the hood

No It's just your threads. It's like you're the Feds trolling trying to get information

 

[Street Knowledge]

People act like black suburbs don't exist.

I blame hip hop

 

[Another Man]

Because they're the group that tends to be the most likely to be c00ns.

Yet the hood is full of blacks quick to attack and victimize their own
But to answer the ops question, its because many have.been indoctrinated to associate poverty with blackness.

Its always dumb idiots like you with government conspiracies

Because most ignorant/broke nikkas in the ghetto love making assumptions about them to make them feel better about themselves even if they don't know that some of them went through the struggle but was able to escape

Oh and this also, sour grapes/jealousy. I guess burb nikkas are supposed to feel bad about having a better upbringing than hood nikkas.

The more you talk about race the more I'm going to keep believing you're the Feds

Yeah but that's not what the OP was asking about. What your saying is a completely different conversation in itself.

Also lol at the superiority complex on this display here. Prime example of the type of c00nery Suburban nikkas display.

"suburban" in the minds of most blacks is seen as a result of escaping from where they came from and therefore with the idea that they are somehow "better than" the one's didn't.

Either way, for poor blacks EVERYONE is the source of their frustration; "suburban blacks", whites (racist or liberal), non-whites, immigrants (legal and illegal), the legal system (cops, judges etc), the education system (i.e. schools, teachers, text books and the principles), "bias tests", banks and any thing else that pretty much think of that people collectively depend on in a civil society. Ask any poor black person anything about the aforementioned and you're likely to hear A LOT of blaming and A LOT of finger pointing.

They tend to have the most excuses and the poorest results to show for it (yeah...I said it).

"Suburban" in this day and age really doesn't mean what it meant 20-30 years ago anyway. Many of the poorest blacks in the inner city who haven't "made it", have simply been shuffled into the suburbs so that whites can take back the inner city.

They more money you get, the more it's your fault that they broke.

you guys need to stop discussing your business out in the open with white folks like the OP

Calling people cacs on here is a modern day witch hunt. Im more black than you, i can trace my family back to africa including tribe. Can you? Nah didnt think so

 

[Sean312]

Because blacks who grew up in the burbs are sheltered from the real reality of being black. My cousins who are from the burbs think police are nice lol. Completely different life from living in Chicago, and people from the burbs always think they know what's good for people from the hood to do. You can't compare at all.
