Ending the Cycle of Poverty

[TheFemalePerspective]

My friends and I continuously discuss white privilege and how, we, as black women can fight it in order to gain our rightful places in society. It's no secret that the deck of cards are set in favor of people with the least amount of melanin circulating in their bodies. Yet, I learned long ago, that with the right mindset you can overcome obstacles beyond your dreams. The way the human mind works is that it clutches onto familiarity. People born into a poor family often stay poor. Of course, this is due to a myriad of reasons; factors that are sometimes/often outside of their control. However, I believe that the mindset of our culture is usually self-defeating. Before we can even successfully accomplish our goals and rise above our oppressors, we must first believe in our own capabilities. For example, are you aware of how elephants are usually trained? When they're extremely young, a rope is tied around their leg -- too heavy for them to break free. The young elephant continuously tries to escape but is always held back by the rope. His mind is conditioned to believe he can never break free. Even when he grows and weighs more than 5,500kg, they use the same rope to hold him back. He's unaware of the power he possesses now and as a result remains dormant to his own capabilities. Similarly, mind tricks are widely used on the black community: negative images, stories of failures, and hood stereotypes remain perpetuated in the media to STOP us from achieving our very best. We're all aware that knowledge equates power but ignorance is now glorified and wrongly celebrated by some people within our own community.

How do we end the cycle of poverty in our communities when the powers beyond try everything they can to stop it? It's no coincidence that movies and music cleverly play a role in structuring and maintaining stereotypes. If a white woman is having a bad day, she's just having a bad day. If you see a black woman angry, well, of course it's in her DNA to be angry.

Lets see.
Increase equality = decrease poverty = less freedom = instability in the markets = leads to socialism or possibly a malfunctioning form of communism




Decrease equality = Increase poverty = more freedom = more stability = capitalism

There's no right answer, but I believe intellectual content should be pushed more heavily within the black community. Especially fundamental knowledge about how the markets work(supply & demand), financial literacy ( saving, not copping J's), how to start / manage private enterprise(businesses) and voting becoming solidified political force, not to be messed with like the Jewish population.

Give up feminism....
Loose the superiority complexes.....
Make better choices in men.......
Be willing to work with black men instead of against them.....


Guaranteed that the black women that are on government benefits will be off them in 1-2 years, MAX.

Close thread.

I think she's talking generally not about male vs female issues

Those problems will fix themselves if they did those things.... I'll admit... I kinda didn't read. Why? It's been the same circular argument since women got their government benefits.... As long as they have them, women will continue to act the way they are acting and no issues will be solved or even addressed.

The government is their husband... Ask Uncle Sam.....

Instead of focusing on ending the cycle of poverty we should be working to extend the cycle of poverty.

I wasn't trolling contrary to what some may think... That was a honest answer. She mentioned white privilege in context with where the black community is at in regards to poverty. It's more than white privilege(but it plays a part). It's the fact that white women know that white men will check them or even replace them if they get out of line. Feminism for white women granted a few benefits but it has failed in totality. Black feminism, with the help of the media and white establishment has been successful in the subjugation of black men(with exceptions). The lack of stable black families and communities and poverty have resulted.

I think fixing families are important but trying to turn it into a female vs male discussion is unproductive and corny

Dog, we have a whole anti-woman subforum (TLR), that is practically dedicated to this sort of self-loathing, fact-free, and offensively dishonest rhetoric like: "Black feminism....has been successful in the subjugation of black men". Take that bullsht over there.

Who's talking about feminism? You just read the first sentence that began with, 'my friends and I', saw my username and concluded with that?

For someone who didn't really read what I wrote, you sure have a lot of say.

Create your own thread on patriarchy and anti-feminism. This thread is not for that. Please, re-read my original comment, and try to avoid selective reading.

in this thread i learned that poverty and familial instability in black communities never existed before those fukking hippies gave those naive black women something to crow about

That's an over-simplification of the entire process. For someone who admires the theories presented by Karl Marx, although in reality they're entirely impractical, because he doesn't take into account man's greed: I would still argue that capitalism isn't the most stable economy. Clearly, it isn't otherwise we wouldn't be experiencing a recession. However, I agree with you that we must become a unified political force that engages in more debates, and also in the handling of the great propaganda machine: Media.
