I didn't say civil rights didn't achieve their agenda, for the most part it did
I'm questioning the agenda itself, the agenda/goals of the civil rights movement were wrong
Black peoples should not for equality, integration or social justice aka civil rights
We need to fight for money and power and superiority
My spidey senses tingle when a person doesn't answer a direct question
Like I've already mentioned in the previous thread, integration and civil rights are different entities
You could achieve voting equality, without public facilities being integrated, why is that distinction important? because the agenda of different organizations strive for "Civil Rights", despite the members already being integrated in their respective society
Civil Rights achieved its agenda. Dr. King was rightfully prepping for an economical movement that would compliment the success of the Civil Rights Movement, but he died. The legit criticism should be geared towards the post Civil Rights period, due to the lack of complimentary actions after the Civil Rights Movement
They didnt "force economic integration" they started small and built up untill it was large enough to support them leaving and integrating on their own terms..alot of immigrant groups still do this to this very day
theres little korea,little russia,little mexico,Chinatown...wheres little Africa?wheres Negrotown?..Nobody stopped its building .things were already headed that direction with Black wall street the harlem renaissance and detroit in the 40s and 50 but it all stopped after the civil rights movement ..
@theworldismine13 is right to criticize it .
Thats not accurate either..they werent importing vegetables ,corn, milk and sugar from china in the 1890s..they offered their people mix of local and imported goods but the reason they succeeded is they kept every dollar circulating among themselves for as long as possible...
And the point of building your own infrastructure is to AVOID the discrimination so of course they minimized their exposure..but they still faced it ...the real estate they had to build on was on land nobody else wanted...its hard to see it now since the cities have grown but look at the historical pictures of chinatown and little italy.
Chinatown was not established via poor real estate opportunity or selling of local and imported goods, like the common vegetable stands
Chinatown was established by merchants that sold Chinese based goods and services only. Then it blossomed to include the mixture of local goods, only after their unique foods, labor recruiting companies, art works merchants, prostitution, and porcelain statue merchants help to established an economical structure. Then the Chinese-agenda-based organization(I don't recall the name), that supports all Chinatown in the country, was established, which helped immigrants and local Chinese folks with training, opening a business, local politics, and lobbying efforts
It was a forced economical integration because it was based in supply and demand. The white folks wanted to experience the "oriental" culture, the asian merchants capitalized off that. The white folks wanted labor to exploit, the asian merchants capitalized off that
The Civil Rights movement did not stifle black economics because its agenda was successfully achieved, which it did not have anything to do with economics. Like I said above, the lack of a complimentary movement post CRM, is not the fault of the Civil Rights Movement
Yup....you never see Asians marching for anything...yet they were indentured laborers during the railway boom many of them are still buried under those tracks..they were locked up in prison camps during ww2..the white man wouldnt employ them for a long time.
