Believe in class struggle brehs. Poor whites are still white, and openly ignorant at that. Why should we give a fukk if Cletus and his wife/cousin can't eat for a day? Forget class unity, I want a Black community.

She's right but still need to see her full statement. Nobody wants to be broke. Everyone wants opportunity.
I believe in class struggle breh, poor blacks do have it worse than poor whites but at the end of the day both of those motherfukkers are poor. Same goes for the middle class
It's not that simple, breh.
Its not that simple because rich white capitalist sicced their dogs (poor whites) on blacks.

Poor is the new black? Where are all the poor non-blacks being killed in the streets with impunity? Also, poor on poor crime? Poor on poor crime is about as an inevitable event as there possibly is. Is this b#tch on that narcotic?
Can someone tell these black entertainers to stick to singing, dancing and making jokes on stage? Because most of them are so out of the loop on the political spectrum of their own people that they don't even deserve an ear unless they're on a stage.
Badu is one of these headwrap wearing, herbal tea drinking, ankh around her neck sporting holier than thou hoes who thinks that because she doesn't eat meat and memorized some 5 percenter lines that she's more deep than she is. Again, is she on that narcotic?
Peace

I'm a hotep because I disagree with her sentiment
No, sir....I would be more a hotep for agreeing with her
And when did she stop singing and dancing, sir?
I just suggested she stick to what she does best since political/social commentary is not it
Any more one liners to amuse me this morning?
Peace
It's true. That's why as of late cacs have seemed to be getting worse.
A lot of them are broke with little hope, in a way white people have never been in this country. They are afraid, confused and angry.

Just one I would like to see one famous black person speak positively about black people.
