I feel ya.
I have my moments...then I realize it doesn't like us.
It's weird...The black man and woman is more entitled to America...As much as native Americans...but it's like the powers that be want to make it so we're a nonfactor.
I would never discredit the gains blacks made here....it pisses me off to see blacks never get the credit they deserve in this bytch man...it saddens me seeing us begging for change out in the street man....sleeping on the sidewalk...trapped in the hood. Living in terrible situations not just here but abroad man.Like seriously...man. I could never give up on my people I just want to see us succeed. This country legit makes me angry as hell sometimes because of it.
But I know what it is...we got to deal...pay bills...live our lives...take care of our families...support the cause and build each other up. My relationship with this country is bittersweet. Sometimes more bitter than sweet.
Even in this thread you have black people going at black people as if white America don't consider us all n!ggers. Like who are we fighting? Why are we fighting each other? I don't want to beef or have any misunderstanding with any black man or woman at all...
It's like that willie lynch bullshyt...The self proclaimed strong hate on the weak. The smart ones are killed off. The dumb ones that don't question anything and play their position prosper man...The darker ones are held in a lower regard than the weak...I wish it wasn't like this man....but I don't turn away from reality otherwise I'd be a coward and I refuse to live my life on my knees cause I'd rather die on my feet.
we fight each other because we have been brainwashed into believing an american dream that was not made for uS. we were not considered americans when the dream was first stated. we were considered PROPERTY. . NUCCAS the dream aint for you. some of us super elite talented, super elite brains/minds, super elite hustle. have slipped thru the cracks. but even then. the cism still comes after them(how many times has chris rock been stopped recently"? / thread) .
The dream was not for us at all. In addition that middle class dream is dying with the global economy. basically where jobs go else where for dirt cheap. it gives those people in those countries a shot at a slightly better life. which is cool. but it kills our middle class. which is where the dream comes from. again that dream still wasnt for US black people.
This is why you have to work twice/thrice or four times as hard as your white counter part to receive less then what he gets.
this is not a Something is better then nothing thread. this is a we cant ever have it all with equality until the white man changes. no one else can stop it except for the man who keeps it going and who is the majority in the US, holding all of the cards( most of the money, all of the weapons, most of the positions of authority, senators, governors, congress, usually the president, every major company is owned by a white person. even when black people owe large companies. a white person is owning the companies that cut them a check. so anytime they feel like it they can cut ya check off.
