Let’s Be Real…It’s Probably A Wrap For Black People In America

[DrBanneker]

Or is the Black middle class non existant??

It exists...but also realize outside the South, with NY, Detroit, Chicago, and DMV being the main exceptions there aren't many large majority Black middle class neighborhoods like in the past. If there are, they are sprinkled around the metro.

If you want to live in a majority Black neighborhood with a median household income over $100k, 50% of your choices nationally are in PG County alone. DMV plus Atlanta and New York have 80% of such neighborhoods. Here in Philly you basically have Mt. Airy, Upper Darby, Melrose Park, and Willingboro/Sicklerville/Ewing in NJ. Your commute can make any of those hard.

Honestly though, organizing the Black community didn't always happen where everyone lived in one place. Things like the church brought everyone in an area together. We let that die though so the isolation sucks unless you are in local Black orgs.

I live in a White area but my kids play sports in a Black area and we do Jack and Jill and some other groups like NAAGA.

Can you explain the hierarchy of jack and Jill.

Like I was a mike & Julie's kid.

Wisest kid in fact, 1982.

Where it became obvious at an early age. Politically.
I did not have favor with Jack and Jill. While never knowing wtf it is?


Can you explain?

It's probably a wrap for us politically
Latinos are assimilating into whiteness, both on the census and politically
The black vote will be less and less relevant as both parties will need to focus on whites and latinos. Will be interesting to see how conservative latinos migrating to democratic city will impact swing states and stuff like that

I'm not convinced about Latinos assimilating into Whiteness anytime this century..

American cacs are losing their minds and going nazi over their abortions and low birth rates. They feel they can only survive if they're the overwhelming majority populace.

They need more whites in the country.
If they recognized Latinos crossing the border as White they wouldn't be up in arms over rampant Hispanic immigration and trying to expel them in the millions.
If Mexico was 'Norway' and Guatemala 'Sweden' they wouldn't have a single problem with them crossing illegally one bit.

Cacs will never see Hector and them as White

I’m massive fan of this congresswoman and I hope she goes on to have a massively successful career…but the ROI on stuff like this seems to be coming to a rapid close. Who is listening to this anymore? its not 2020.




We need another way to defend “diversity” than thinking these impassioned appeals to white people will work anymore. We need a more nuanced and persuasive answers because I dont see this working on anyone who doesn’t already agree with us. We’re in a significant minority right now. It makes us look unserious, emotional, and nonstrategic. Plus, after Obama MOST white people aren’t going to listen to these claims any more.

oh to extent that we ever mattered it is definitely a wrap for us on the national stage politically in the sense of having a Black agenda.

As this selection shows it’s wildly unpopular again to the extent our interest line up with others interest we can move the needle a lit bit but so called tangibles is totally dead.

I think op is right unfortunately. certain classes of black folks will be ok but the poor masses will be Native American status.

I'm def retiring outside of this country y'all be safe

Native american is a perfect example. They exist but you almost never seen them. I was on the protocol committee for a job and we had to go to the Governor of Virginia’s ceremony where an Indian Tribe did an annual tribute of bringing him a deer. It was an actual daed deer.

Turns out there is some kind of treaty of eastern Indians and there’s actual reservations in Virginia. It’s not even way out somewhere it’s near Richmond but you’d never know it

There’s a joke about Lumbee Indians being hoes there in Fayetteville again you see them but you don’t see them. You go to Lumberton the town named for them and you don’t see them there at all.

That’s how it’s gonna be for poor Black americans in the future.

I’ve come to accept that the Boule (even though the actual Boule is really very small). were right.

I got to ask why don’t you live in one of the Black areas up there?

Yea the appearance will probably be the first barrier. Ted Cruz and Marco Rubio are already considered white. Ultimately I feel like a certain portion of cacs will believe whatever Fox News tells them, won't be instant or happen over night but we've seen multiple groups go from ostracized to fully embraced as white

 

[cartierhoe]

The solution will always be the same.

Keep moving forward as we always have and look out for us instead of expecting others to do it for us.

I'd be damned if I sit here living in fear and spooked of what's to come like @I Really Mean It

This

italians and irish became white when the economy was booming, population was 1/3 of what is now and cost of living was low

shyt is too expensive now and even cacs are hurting. they not looking to share power and resources wit hector and them, esp mestizos and triguenos

If the Democrats think Latinos align with their values they're gonna be in for a rude awakening.

That's a religious community who has bootstrap mentality more than any other group. They even go harder on illegal crossings than white americans.

You do know a Hispanic can be any race right? Look at the president of the DR he’s actually of Lebanese heritage but he’s white presenting.

I’d say at least 70% of people walking around Santo Domingo could be classified as Black using one drop standards

In fact other that the elites it’s hard to find a white looking Dominican outside of Santiago

I’d say Colombia is more white especially in the capital but the north and pacific region is like almost 100% the leadership is white except in one state where they specifically set aside for Black people.

They don’t like it because they assume that non whites might think like them but they can and do rule over non white majorites all the time.

They just don’t like having to make any consessions to ensure that there’s no uprising.

Hell there was a time when Irish people were considered non white.

They can’t make white women kick out babies without going full handmaids tale.

That’s the one flaw in their rule their horny bytches. A breh could decide to go full SYSBM bed buck with the knowledge that some white girl would accept them.

I wonder how many brehs in South Africa married cacettes? The only reason I could see for it not happening is the actual laws against it and the huge culture differences. One reason Black americans can go IR is at the end of the day culturally speaking we are essentially white people.

You’d make a better argument if you didn’t flood people with links and videos

You’re not gonna sway people with fact and figures Trump’s selection proved that.

Just say you’re piece without all the links

We are going the way of Brazil. Sad stuff
The right wing shift of Latinos is so obvious right now.
They are not what the democrats thought they would turn out to be.

The issue is they are already creating Mexican towns all over.

Think about how it would sound if Trump said he was gonna deport all the Blacks. We are already smaller than Hispanics and we generally don’t look white so there would be on Idenity problems unless you count Amber Rose as Black

Again I give you PG county theres a bunch of little Black towns where there would be no people left you took all the Black people.

You go to border towns it’s got to be the same thing. You’d have no people but all those houses and businesses with no people around. It would be giant ghost towns
