It's a shame blacks ain't got no "bill gates" to serve as role models

The closest we got are the rappers and nikkas connected to the music industry like Russell Simmons or sports stars. Our top guys are like worth 1/10th of the top cacs. fukk this embarrassing shyt brehs.

The reason we don't have a "black bill gates" isn't because blacks just want to be "Rappers" and "Sports
stars".
It's because historically the institutions that would allow a bill gates to come to being were
basically only for wealthy white people. The princeton's, yale's and harvard's weren't accessible
to many blacks and thus they couldn't participate in the early stages of computer science.
And then later on in the 70's and 80's , a computer was largely out of reach for the average black
family, home computers back then cost as much as a car.
So the chance of some young black dude to mingle with
Bill Gates and Steve Jobs was once again low.
You can thank our country's delibrate pursuit of inequality for that.

Breh, jews, Irish, even asians have been historically discriminated against, however their attitudes made them prevail. If more men were like that strong brother Malcolm X, we would see brothers adopting the right attitude. I mean look how intelligent and eloquent Malcolm X was:





Compare that to this extortionist embarrassing clown today for example:

Come on. At least research this before you start threads.

The Irish were accepted as "White" by the mid 20th century in
a way that blacks simply were incapable of doing, so they didn't face
the discrimination that blacks did and currently still do going forward.

Jews in particular had/have a strong hold in prestigious institutions
like Harvard, so they wouldn't face the sort of discrimination (academically)
that would cause them to build institutions that are supposed to be analogous
to the ivy leagues or lesser state colleges.
Notice you don't see any "Historically Jewish College or Universities" right ?


As for Asians they get discriminated against in a different way.
Colleges like Berkeley and UCLA may as well be HACU's because of
the high percentage of high scoring asian students who go to these schools
over ivy leagues because apparently they have an "Asian Quota" that they
try their hardest NOT to go over.

Also your post didn't address the economic reason why the average
Black American was largely barred from participating in the computing industry
in the 80's/70's/60's/50's.
In reality it's a complex issue that is more than just having "The right attitude".

it's not just the computing industry, there are many industries out there that did not have the sort of barriers that came with the computing industry as you pointed out.

Jews were discriminated against at the Ivies during the early 20th century, it was only when the wealthy ones started putting their kids there at high costs did the schools become more accepting with them. Hell Carl Icahn was at Princeton when things were "better" for jews and still was discriminated against, yet still beat the odds with his determination and intellect.

Both do plenty of things outside the entertainment industry. We just had this thread. Why can't you people ever talk about anything good?

i dont see how this is a problem, bill gates father gave him a computer cause they had the money for it

have you even looked up the blacks in bill's profession?

Around that same time (early 20th century) you had a brilliant black chemist like this dude :
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Percy_Lavon_Julian

Who was likely every bit as smart as any other person on those campuses but due to his skin color was
not allowed to pursue certain paths of education on those campuses due to racially discriminatory practices
( was allowed to get a Masters, barred from a Doctorate).
He was barred from even sleeping in the same dorms as white students
He wasn't even allowed to teach at the very school he'd graduated from either (harvard).

Again, history is not as simple as you're making it out to be.

Breh look at the peeps you named that reinforced my point, actors/comedians, what kind of motivation can you get from look at people who are representative of an industry that is based entirely on connections? What I am talking about is black hustlers, innovators, producing something new whereby the masses are forced to accept it because they need it.
You don't get that with entertainment industry because it is hard to be motivated to be the "best" when you know being the "best" is not necessarily the determinant of your success in that field.

Vince McMahon is one of the people i look up to and motivates me to overcome my obstacles

@wingzboy Why don't you just get on your shyt and give us an example we can follow instead of putting it on others?

I never posted this in this section, I put it in the booth and the mods moved it. I am not usually in this section breh.
