[TRY GOD]

 

[Poitier]

Nothing wrong with this.

 

[African NOT Amerikkkan]

If they were preaching economic equality then i would stand by this...

Until we have equal economic opportunity nothing is going to change.

Holding hands will not solve anything

 

[mtu wa chuma]

They do these fancy equality/diversity is strength bulshyt and then you go to the offices of the people who make these commercials and its 100% white.

 

[observe]

I don't understand what's wrong with that ad? Should it show all white kids playing soccer or something

 

[Apollo Creed]

Forget learning your history brehs
Become a new black brehs
repeat history because you don't know history brehs

What are you doing to strive for economic equality for our people.

Criticizing others but not helping your peoples brehs...only on the coli.

I obviously don't have the millions of dollars Adidas has to promote any type of positive economic message to this country...

But i have done things on a small scale that i am satisfied with

Like telling people in my community to try eating at the black establishments like the Chocolat Restaurant lounge (which is a black owned and employed business) instead of eating at the italian and Chinese restaurants

We have to build up our own establishments to improve our economics because others arent going to give us anything.

Do you know anything about pharrell and his new black ideology?

This AD campaign is all well and good. But knowing what we know of pharrell, this is just more of his propaganda. He could have went with any theme in the world for a pair of shoes, yet he's going with equality.

[you're NOT "n!ggas"]

Idk about ya'll, but I'm not in the habit or mood of following Pharrell's every move and finding reason to take offense

You're being a lil fakkit bytch as usual..

Everyone can do whatever moves are within their capacity. If we all moved things would progress...

I'm criticizing his approach.....apparently, if we all ate at black own businesses (meaning we only dined on soul food and bbq) all our problems would be fixed.

Mainly, upper-middle class blacks, cuz that's who really matters, right?

Don't you have cousin to bribe so she doesn't reveal you essentially raped her?
