Five Bleak Facts on Black Opportunity

[Poitier]

How is developing black businesses

How you funding it?

 

[MeachTheMonster]

You sounding like you have no hope. How is developing black businesses and keeping things as exclusive as possible not a big part off the solution to us moving up?

"Exclusion" has never been a benefit to any society.

What you are suggesting is for black people to purposely besiege ourselves within the white supremacy structure in America.

 

[Versa]

How you funding it?

There are black businesses all over funded with their own money. We need more of them and we need to do a better job of supporting them.

If black group economics isn't one of the answers to you, what do you think needs to be done?

 

[Poitier]

There are black businesses all over funded with their own money.

Yes and there are even more that don't get off the ground or fail because of funding.

If black group economics isn't one of the answers to you, what do you think needs to be done?

We either get the check we are owed or find another source of funding. Anything else is a bandaid.

We're quite possibly in a untenable position here

 

[MeachTheMonster]

I don't agree.

Black people can't integrate fully into white society, they is no equality there. All that's left is building within right. Doing that will take working together. Marriage to me is a cornerstone to that. Building families and then building communities.

Unequal opportunity= unequal achievement. That's it. Has nothing to do with marriage families or communities.

Black people do work together. Black people working together is pretty much the only reason we've made it this far.

Pointing out ad naseum that there's inequality regarding jobs, salary, etc, isn't talking about a solution to me.

Treating a symptom as cause is not talking about a solution.

Building from within, starting with families out to building connections in neighborhoods, communities and by building our own commerce is a discussion I think that will point to more solutions is all.

This is empty rhetoric. There is no "building our own commerce" within an already established economy.

You don't gain wealth by "building from within". Wealth comes from outside sources.

What other sources of funding do you have in mind outside of blacks with money to spend investing in businesses and hiring blacks?

There aren't Blacks with the kind of funding we need.

So the solution will always be to push mainstream society to pay us equally. To treat us fair.

Got it.

So what do you feel we should do to better our situation

Got it.

That's always been the cause. You wanna fix something you have to address the root cause. No?

 

[Rarebird77]

Address ad nauseam. Rinse repeat. .. .

 

[MeachTheMonster]

Address ad nauseam. Rinse repeat. .. .

The black community coming together and "addressing" the problem is precisely the reason you have what opportunity you have today.

It's the only thing that has worked, and it's the only thing that can work.

 

[Poitier]

So what do you feel we should do to better our situation

Force them to give us our funs, not beg, but force whether it be by boycotts or unrest. That or go to foreign entities willing to give us money.

 

[Free White & 21]

Why does this not have countless daps? Is the truth hard to digest in this case?

It doesn't have countless daps because it's the truth. It's simple as hell but it's the most uneasy for black people to wrap their heads around. They're THAT brainwashed. These nikkas gonna tell you to build a spaceship and go live on the moon before they tell you to get on code and build an economy

We're quite possibly in a untenable position here

Yes we currently are. Don't have to stay this way at all. Get on code, build an economy.. or not

Force them to give us our funs, not beg, but force whether it be by boycotts or unrest. That or go to foreign entities willing to give us money.

You ain't forcing nobody to do a damn thing COLLECTIVELY until you get on code. No code, no real boycotts, no real 'unrest'
Foreign entities WILLING TO GIVE? Let's just have a moment of silence to let that nonsense sink in
Ain't NOBODY outside of america giving us a damn thing. They don't owe us shyt. Get off your knees my nikka
If you talkin reparations FROM AMERICA you gotta get on code to get that
