One thing i noticed more and more when i really started paying attention (i'm 25, didn't really start noticing it til i got like 23-24), a lot of us make excuses for the black men who possess the money/resources to do something who don't.
Example, when i bring up entrepreneurship on here (and other places), there's always cats who say, "b-b-but no black men have the money to start businesses" which is not true
. There are quite a few successful black men in America who do have enough money to start a business if they wanted to (and comfortably), those guys just choose not to. I know guys like this personally. They could, but they don't want to spend any money on building something to help other black ppl, they want to stunt and flex (of course they'd never admit that but that is why).
Ppl say don't blame them, and i'm not blaming them, i'm just admitting that nothing will get better for us economically if those of us who are able to build, don't build. White ppl damn sure aren't gonna do it, and it's not gonna magically happen by itself. So when cats complain about their white employer, and white men in general, i'm just thinking, yeah that's true but what are you DOING about it? Dudes will say i'm being a dikk or a c00n but i don't sugarcoat stuff, the fact is, if you aren't actively trying to change something, then it's just complaining and complaining for the most part does nothing. If you think white employers are underpaying you, or promoting someone else instead of you because of race, or throwing out your applications because of your race etc what are you gonna do about it? Are you gonna link up with some other black ppl and get some shyt popping, or are you gonna just keep doing the same thing and complaining about it later?
About the black men with means who refuse to build. I have an uncle who's got a lot of dough. He always kept talking about starting a restaurant and putting some black ppl on, but he never did. What he did do is buy himself a big house, nice cars, take trips to numerous islands, a bunch of jewelry, playing golf with old cacs etc i've known several black men like this, who i know for a fact had enough bread to start a business but did not, they rather stunt and be "that nikka" and not build something for black ppl.
Not creating businesses, jobs, etc but we should make excuses for those guys and act like they're too poor and helpless to do it (you don't have to be a multimillionaire to start a small business for gods sake)? But when a lot of us get successful, we don't build anything, we just get ours and fukk the rest, but too many to count.
