I might have to read through this entire thread again.
White men control it. They are the ones "maintaining the power"
Holding the power is not the same as maintaining it. Maintaining implies that black men are actively oppressing women. As for your nba example black men do hold a lot of the power, ask Lebron.
In all of those instances the majority could make a change if they banded together and made it happen. One problem is the minority has purposely put up and maintained barriers to prevent an uprising. You can't say the same holds true for black men in the church/politics.
I'm not reaching for anything. Behavior is behavior. If behavior warrants differing treatment then that should hold true accross the board, not just when it supports your position.
So when black women accept better loans, education, and less stringent sentancing are they maintaing their power over black men?

And black men don't have any institutional power over black women's salaries, yet you keep insisting that the pay disparity is a privilege being maintained by black men. You are being very hypocritical here.

I thought the fukking issue here was minority women not having their issues with society addressed because
of the focus on white women in mainstream feminism.
Yet somehow someway you lose the forest to the damn trees and start demonizing
black men.
Ignoring that these are the very people who seek to serve themselves and they're
fine with voicing that.
Just fukking astounding seriously.
What black institutions are you talking about? There are no black institutions outside of the black church.
I never said that it's ok to only judge men due to behavioral tendencies. I said it's ok to judge some behavioral tendencies different than others, regardless of who does them. Men OR women taking pregnancy/childbirth leave is not the same thing as men OR women committing violent crime or having guns and being profiled for it. That's how the real world works.
As for the rest of that simplistic rhetoric, it's almost as if you haven't read anything I posted. You obviously didn't read any of the research, at least. Yes, Black men contribute to sexism against Black women. And yes, there are sectors of society in which Black women have advantages over Black men, and even contribute to their disadvantages. The difference is that overall, Black women hold much less social power for the moment in most Black institutions, so the advantages they do have don't add up to a comprehensive array of privileges the way Black men's do.
I gotta admit...I love seeing black feminists ether you black booty worshipping nikkaz back into reality.
Whenever they engage in debates on their issues, you will get a taste of who they truly hate...and here's a hint...it ain't white men or women.
These white feminists give no fukks. Putting negresses in their place. This is the type of cutthroat we're dealing with as a people.
