Lets have an honest discussion brehs, are we doomed in Amerikkka?
- Thread starter Y2Dre
- Start date
Yes.
To be quite frank, we're f*cked
There's less institutional racism on the surface than there was back in the day but whites are more armed than ever, the country is being flooded with immigrants from foreign cultures who hate blacks so we have to deal with them in addition to whites and quite honestly, black people dont know what we're doing.
We dont work to build anything.
We dont work towards doing anything productive that can help the long term well being of the black race
-We have burned several potential political/business allies in the last year
-We have people hell bent on buddying up to other races romantically and socially
-We're still shackled by religion
-We dont control our own image in the media
-We're shackled by a culture that promotes promiscuity, violence and partying above anything else
-Our neighborhoods are being gentrified more than ever
-Black crime rates are rising again
-You cant even have open dialogue with other black people on social issues
I dont see the light at the end of the tunnel for us here. Any black people worth their salt need to start planning an exit strategy

It's gonna be interesting for negroes that's for sure, don't see the black church helping to improve anything, black politicians and civil servants will continue to sell out, more and more frustration from the youth will keep the black on black crime rate high and prison system filled, institutional racism will continue to advance as the white population declines. It's going to take nothing short of a divine intervention to get the train back on track. Negroes don't have an exit strategy for themselves let alone for the community at hand, we're too divided economically and too integrated into white daddy's monopoly scheme.
It's gonna be an economic apartheid for the upcoming generations at the rate things are progressing. Negroes are going "all in" on some multiracial utopia tip betting the future of their grandchildren on people who built and operate a system that habitually destroys and marginalizes them.
Yt might be a lot of things but s-t-u-p-i-d about the potentiality of our cohesiveness (black wall st.) is not one.of them.

If the usa is still around 50yrs from now.. then yeah we probably are doomed. However...
I don't think the USA will be around in 2050. Hell I think we're in the last 15-20yrs of the nation. All the signs are pointing to this place getting waxed in no more than 60minutes. I give AA's great odds at surviving IT, because we have already survived some serious sorrow/horror.
But make no mistake... shyt is gonna suck. But we gotta go through the fire, to get out of a burning house

I personally think that there is no unity in the black community. There is not one single leader, nor unifying force in this community. And that's a good thing, because they are completely unnecessary in today's society. Blacks in America will never advance as an ethnic group until we move up the economic chain and intergrate into the higher social classes.
I believe in the economic system. In order for the black community to advance we need to focus more on education. Once we create more black skilled workers, we will have more knowledge of how the business worlds work and more opprotunity to create black business owners and black leaders.
This worked for the forigners. They did not spend their time advocating for opportunity, they created it themselves. They took full advantage of the US education system and used it to advance socially. They came here as poor foriegners and have moved up the economic chain signifigantly. They do have one major weakness, though. They're mainly highly skilled, but they don't own many successful large-scale businesses. The large corporations are still predominantly white owned and hardly employ any blacks and this is something that needs to change.

In every crisis lies opportunity, don't forget that...That's all I'm going to say about that. But if you can read the writing on the wall, then it'll be the break AAs have always needed and never gotten. Whether or not we're ready for it when that moment approaches is another question.
There's over 40 million. Even if you took the smartest, strongest, wealthiest and etc., and that composed of 10%, that's 4 million of us to rebuild from good stock and solid foundation. Personally I can easily see 20-30% realistically. A lot of bullshyt has been instilled in the past decades that hasn't been conducive to our progress. I can understand why, they had to turn us around. A lot of the drama and dysfunction created to keep our eyes from focusing on the prize and squading back up. I don't see all those games being as efficient in the future as they are now. More and more are waking up while they're tying to keep others asleep and put others back to bed. We've come too far for us to fail now...I don't see it happening.

Depends on your definition of doomed. Relative to whom? Is a nikka from Baldwin Hills doomed compared to a nikka from Chiraq? Is a black business owner from Atlanta doomed compared to a white meth addict in Arizona?
I don't get the nihilism coming from some of y'all, it seems like a self fulfilling prophecy. You are what you say you are. Hell nawl I ain't doomed, not until they throw dirt on my bones. Until then Ima fight what the fukk happened to nikkas.

I believe everyone is talking about the masses of black people. Sure there will be some who are fine, but for the majority of us we're in a very vulnerable situation.
I gotta spot on the west side of Atlanta and the amount of poverty and homelessness is depressing. In the morning on my way to work I see tons of mostly black men wandering the streets unemployed and damn near homeless.
Black male unemployment is 50-60% in some neighborhoods. That's the future for the rest of us if things continue on its current path

I hear you on that. I was one of those, walking the streets homeless, and in fact- skid row out here is primarily a mass of negus with a few latinos and whites sprinkled in. shyt looks like Zion off the Matrix- It IS depressing. It's so depressing that I realized the powers that be are counting on us to internalize their hatred of us and use it to hate each other, as well as operate from a defeated mindstate.
But since we're being honest, I can say that my issues were as a result of drug addiction. I'm not saying I squared up completely but it's interesting to me that drug USE in our community is being promoted at a disgusting rate thru our music and entertainment. Again, it's not like everybody else ain't gettin high either but we don't have the luxury as black folks to be walking around with our head in the clouds 24-7.
I amaze myself at the amount of business I get done now that Im not roaming around looking for a jug on some zombie shyt. nikkas think we can drink and smoke away the pain but that shyt is actually one of the primary reasons we get fukked over. Not focused
