Every new report is about how we are disproportionately negatively effected by everything in this country.

Bingo! When something is effecting everyone, the media goes out of it's way to point out how black people suffer the most from whatever it is.

They do this because they want us to kill ourselves from the inside. A reverse placebo effect. In this world, whatever you believe about yourself is what you become. If you think you are destined to die at an early age, then you'll die in that early age. Just as if you believe you will live a long healthy life you will live a long healthy life.

They bombard us with negative news like this and how covid kills more black people because they want us to mentally die from within. Stop believing these cac lies.

Time to prioritize black men. They using black girl magic and queer boy joy to kill off straight black men. As a black gay man, it disgust me to see how the ops are putting us against each other and folks still falling for the divide and conquer statics. The agents among us all working overtime too. Its pathetic.

Yeah it’s definitely non stop psychological warfare from media and politicians.

Always pointing out problems without presenting any solutions is something a troll would do. That’s why it’s best to only worry about what you can control.

Been stagnant for some years now. With reports of declining health among the young compared to previous generations, we were on track for this regardless. COVID sped things up.

Isn't that the only way the actual problems will get addressed though? Like who is ever going to support Reparations if they believe that Black people are doing just as well as everyone else? Same with addressing educational inequalities, health care inequalities, justice system inequalities, etc.

The truth fukking sucks but it's still the truth and we need to have the truth if those issues are ever going to get addressed.

African American life expectancy had still been climbing almost continuously for the last 20 years. It actually was starting to close the gap with White life expectancy a little bit cause white folk had been hit harder by the opioid epidemic and an increase in suicides. So this killed a positive trend.

I do agree that, in the long term, the declining health of young people (mostly due to issues in diet/obesity and possibly stress) was likely to have reversed the gains at some point.

I saw something months ago about how COVID was going to drop the average American life expectancy by like a year.

Take care of your body and use common sense and you should be good more times than not.
