Move to the South so you can cosplay as black bourgeoisie while slowly having your rights erode. The brunch pics will be lit tho.

Yep.

What's the point of having a 5 bedroom house at the middle of nowhere, when the KKK basically controls your local government and sundown towns are one wrong turn away from the main highway?

For anybody confused on Pan Africanism, this is a great example. Pan Africanism is just collaboration among the diaspora. For some people that includes repatriation but "Back To Africa" is more of a Garveyite thing. Not some default for Pan Africanism.


THIS idea on the otherhand explicitly suggests everyone move south. Big difference. Thank you for coming to my Ted Talk

Florida is trash. My groceries are cheaper in Cali (Norcal),eating out is cheaper and better quality, my rent is cheaper, weed is better, airports are better.
Yeah, I know someone who moved from Broward to SF and they talked about how much worse the quality of life is in SF than in FTL. And they said they’d move back to Broward if they started a family. Statistically speaking, your story is rare. I’m not calling you a liar. Because your experience is your experience. But there’s a reason why even a liberal state like California, with all of its poverty safety nets, has one of the highest populations of unhoused ppl in the US. Especially the Bay Area. Again, the coli views everything from a DNC Red Vs Blue prism that doesn’t really reflect the reality of the average American. If you got it like that, California is the GOAT state. But many folks can’t afford to live in NorCal and enjoy the women weed and weather. Unless you live in the rural parts of NorCal away from the cities. :hubie:

The south fukking sucks and I think Black people should split up and cover more ground than stacking up on top of each other I think that would fix a lot of our problems

This idea does NOT suggest everyone move to the south.


It advocates for enough Black people to move to the south to get electoral majorities.


This is a trillion times more practical than BS pan-Africanism.

Y'all are weak defeatists. You can't be ADOS/FBa with this mentality.


Most ADOS already have roots in the south obviously.

We are advocating for more educated Black people to move to the south to gain control.

Put whatever number on it you want but Pan Africanism isn't saying "Black Americans should move to ______"


This idea is. We already got people saying they're happy where they are, etc. The idea is everything y'all THINK Pan Africanism is, that's all I'm saying :yeshrug:

My wife is from Boston where the median ADOS household is worth $8 and the median rent is $3500.

Where do you see that kind of shyt in big cities in the South?

I saw his movie on Hbo Max, he made valid points.:ehh:

Depends on the location down South.

Some parts are like the north; gentrified, unaffordable and :mjpls: with hot weather.
Some parts are very black, laid back, cheap but poor.
Some parts are mostly black, offer class mobility and pricey.
Some parts are very white, very poor and very :mjpls:.

Brehs need got to stop advertising before it becomes Tex/Cali pt.2
