Brehs lets take a step back and put in perspective the things we have been observing in this thread and not look at the state of this nation (the decline), and how we are approaching a new global era where we (in the states, or better yet those who control the states) will no longer be the super power.

I’m sorry but its a wrap, and if you arent preparing on your strategy to exist (you and or your descendents) in this next phase of global history and you think some mere “group economics” via supporting shea butter and made in china dashika businesses sellers, or trying to “unify” with the cancers being exposed in this thread all i can say is :mjlol:

@Red Shield its over breh, black America has regressed into being the worlds court jesters :mjlol:, i’d argue 70-80 percent of us in America wont make it

Its alot of stuff they we dont know of becauase
1. Most of us americans are stuck in a bubble and dont know anything past our noses
2. Lot of stuff dont get covered on our media so we simply dont care.

These cats putting in work from what i can see
Economic Freedom Fighters - Wikipedia

And the entreprenuerial spirit is real in the townships. Cats started their own public transit system to be able to transport people more efficiently to all of the jobs in cape town.

Lot of other things Im seeing but in general we blacks in America are a far cry from where we were in the past when blacks around the world actually looked at us for inspiration.
Wow.

Something like this is literally what I've always envisioned for black america's "wokeness" movement. Like this was the energy and motion I've wanted for us the entire time while instead we devolve to "My race's opposite gender is trash" thinkpieces and homo advocacy. I don't know how to feel after reading this. Almost wanna move to SA lol.

Yeah, stick a fork in this black america shyt fr.

Breh look up some of the EFF vids on youtube them dudes putting in work and you can tell they were students of various Black scholars from America (and of course African leaders of the past) simply because they are using terminology coined during the AA black concious movements.

In America we have literally been successfully deprogrammed where we are arguing over the most idiotic things. Just look at “black twitter”.

Only Africa can build Africa, the question at hand is will Black americans even be in a position to contribute and live in the next phase our world is entering?

We brag about being an influence yet we own NOTHING we so called influence. We are literally the worlds entertainment and nothing more. The ball has been dropped, the question is how many off us will recognize this and adapt.

Comepare BLM to some of these groups In africa and it is straight comical. These cats raising hell in parliments and getting their people elected mean while in the states we are concerned with who can make the best sign at a rally.

I still remember Jason black saying he tried contacting BLM members to run for the open offices in Fergeson and he’d put money up and nobody responded. All this protesting and the same WS and c00ns got reeclected uncontested for many positions.

South Africa wouldn't be the country I'd cite tbh. It's on the brink of turmoil too.

True, but the groups they have arent debating “black men are the white people of black people” or any of the other nonsense we see in here.

I’d rather die with dignity then go out on the path we are about to in america.

They have a numbers advantage so militant rhetoric is easier to propagate without repercussions.

It's just hard to see SA get their version of reparations/economic redistribution. They bow down to an Indian family and cacs.

Let's be honest, Black Americans tried the economic approach and were brutalized for it.

I like what Ethiopia, Senegal, Ivory Coast, Ghana, Tanzania were doing last I checked in terms of building infrastructure.

Which group of blacks between SA and USA seems better equipped (mentally and orginazation wise) to deal with their turmoil?

Keep in mind that within our country's turmoil most of our legit black organizations only care about whether you find trannies attractive.

I would bank on neither group for different reasons.

I listed a few countries who seem to be building without all the social activism noise...

Is this referencing black wall street? If so I think that's a poor and dangerous way to frame that event. BWS was a community of business owners who had their shops destroyed from riled up racist rioters. But let's not give it the notion that BWS was black america's official denied attempt at economic empowerment/group economics, that's way too much hindsight and romanticizing.

Repeating that event in 2017 would be much harder, less financially damaging (insurance/electronic funds and POS) and way more publicized. Pardon my insensitivity for the violence but if that shyt happened today it could probably end being the shock we need to take group economics seriously and unify.


But then again folks would most likely be writing thinkpieces like "If straight black men weren't so homophobic sexist and EVIL the racists wouldn't have burned down everything"

Anyway I peep your alternatives you posted. I feel like reading, got any links on what they're doing?
