In Miami they get that work when they get out of line. There is no white privilege.Everybody talking that turn the other cheek shyt in this thread you can miss me with that shyt!
again this is why people look at black people as walking licks and as weak.
Keep that mentality yourself don't put that bytchassnesss on me.
Yall need to learn to keep yo foot on these crackers necks. Respectfully that humble and meek bullshyt isn't impressing anybody anymore.
I think there's still religious Black folk who put in work too or at least have their hearts in the right placeman spat facts.
Let's consider this though.
Slavery did a number on my people mentally, socially and spiritually, but for one minute, consider the nature of the people who enacted these crimes.
You know who they had working on plantations and colonies before us?
White people.
They had white folks - the poor, the thieves, the criminals. They would pack them in ships, the same way they packed us in ships, and send them to the islands to work as indentured servants. So a form of slavery. But never OWNERSHIP. When the white criminal's sentence was over, they could get a patch of land and start over.
They practised this shyt on their OWN people, and perfected it on us.
With us though, it was OWNERSHIP, we were a piece of property. At one stage during the crossover from indentured servant to slave, we were actually treated better than the white indentured servant. We worked harder, produced more, and they owned us for life. We were simply a better investment.
The same people who would advocate for the fair treatment of white indentured servants because of the teachings of the Bible, found loopholes in the SAME Bible to justify keeping us in slavery, yet I am supposed to be guided by those teachings?
I respectfully disagree.
How other people grieve don't mean shyt to you and what you need to do in order to cope with YOUR grieving
This perspective right here is the very reason why I posted in this thread in the first place. To correct the backwards regressive mentality that's unfortunate common in the black community
Since therapists weren't around thousands of years ago, we shouldn't use them because of history. That mindset.......ignore these nikkas bro. They won't achieve peace and happiness in their lives until they learn the lessons themselves
Yep. Succumb to regressive human nature. Because centuries later we need to stay true to how we were when we didn't have food to buy. Or cars to drive. Or methods to talk to people miles away
I'm glad someone said it. I don't think a lot of people in here would get it. Waking up everyday literally enraged at someone takes a toll. Maybe choosing another word would help them understand
It's bad but imagine it's millions of times worse when you could go online and see your brother get murderedI’ve never had someone close to me die in such a preventable tragic manner but I can understand that she doesn’t want to live in anger over something that’s happened and she can’t do anything about at this point other than grieve how she feels best. This doesn’t upset me-now if she were making impact statements asking for leniency on his behalf or something then I’d be troubled. He’s been sentenced and is serving his time, it’s over
