I’ve seen them sell flowers on the side of the road, sell oranges, work all sorts of crazy ass jobs.

There's a group of mexicans on every damn highway exit in my city selling Watermelons. Those shyts are good as fukk too :whew: I know they're out there making bank cause I'll drive by early in the morning when they first start and by the time I pass by again on my way home they'll still be out there with only 5 watermelons left.

Comparing a ethnic group that encompasses mutiple races to an actual race

Of course Hispanics Gon rank higher. Alot of these mfs is white themselves (Mexicans for example) and get a easy road, like regular cacs do.

Not to also forget other factors
:laff:

Damn, people ignored this too :wow:

They compared a whole ass ethnic group to us :wow:

In that case, they should be poorer for it. More kids===less wealth saved up. Hispanics embraced the trades and owning businesses, while many AAs are allergice to plumbing, electrician work, etc. Blacks used to be majority of construction workers in the south before 1930s.
Dog they do exactly what we use to do .
Use our own community to get shyt done .

If you want something done you don't call a white own company . You call your friends father who has his own business .

That way the money circulates within the community .

Others see your value and you can grow from that .

Not a single culture in the world where family is more important than Hispanic culture.
Mexicans are the hardest working people I’ve ever been around. They always have a hustle, oftentimes multiple hustles and their women appreciate men who work blue collar jobs, will rarely catch a Mexican women getting pregnant by someone who refuses to work.

They also have strong family values, practice group economics and they own most of the businesses in their communities.


wait, why did this get low quality posting? i dont get it.

Everyones barometer seems to be how they compare to black people.

Low key how they induct model minorities into white supremacist allies.
Truth.

Lot of people saying that black people don't work hard enough don't know what they're talking about. How are you going to sit down with a straight face and say the descendants of slaves don't know how to work hard :hhh:

Black people literally built America. The obstacles we deal with are not the same. When national unemployment(read: white unemployment) hits high levels the fed and state governments talk about job programs and stimulus programs but when it comes to us they tell us to lift ourselves up from our bootstraps.

When drugs are ravaging trailer parks and suburbs it's an opioid crisis and we need to spend tax dollars on rehab programs. When we have drugs in our community it's about stop and frisk and mandatory minimums. When schools are getting shot up with white students in them it's "gun control and mental health services" when our kids are getting shot it's "blue lives matter" and nothing about curtailing the influx of unregistered guns.

These people have convinced themselves they all are underdogs and had/have no help while ignoring how the government has helped them.

People wanna shyt on black Americans saying we spend our money on Jordans and cellphones and other bullshyt but that's what you do when you're poor. You spend your money ASAP because you don't know if you'll even be alive the next day, and in a country where nobody gives a shyt about you it's the little piece of luxury that makes you feel like somebody. It's not a coincidence that rappers and other famous black people who come from poor backgrounds spend a lot of money when they get famous. Rich whites don't wear chains, they don't wear their wealth on them since they grow up knowing that you dont spend money like that. They've grown up with luxury and know that money will always be there so they don't have the mentality of people who've been deprived.

Black people need to boycott c00ns and put our money into black businesses that hire black people and give opportunities to the community. Black people need to put down the capes and quit thinking if we ride for other groups they'll return the favor. Obama put hella support out there to the Latino community at the expense of us, his own people and how do they repay him? by voting for a man who literally called them rapists and killers:hhh:


Donate to groups who are helping house black families, donate to groups planting community gardens, donate to groups getting volunteers to mentor the youth, donate to college scholarships and HBCU. Spend the money in our community and cut off people that don't give a shyt about us. That's how well progress as a people in a land where we built but aren't welcome in.

This shouldn't surprised anyone. A large portion of African-Americans are stuck in multi-generational cycles of poverty. Grandmama was poor, Mama was poor and now you're poor. The challenges that these groups face are completely different than the challenges that immigrants face. Immigrants have it hard, but your perspective is fundamentally different. Probably the most bitter irony that African-Americans in future generations will have to face is this, African-Americans had to bear the brunt of White supremacy and America and fought through it to change the country (i.e. the Civil Rights movement). Now in the present, every other group is utilizing the the gains that African-Americans sacrificed for, while simultaneously leaving us behind.

At the same time I'll say this, any statistic on Black America is skewed because of the deep poverty that a small but significant portion of African-Americans face. If you eliminated the African-Americans that are mired in multi-generational poverty you'd find a much different outlook on the economic prospects for African-Americans.

Ima just say this because I don’t want the thread to take a turn...

Black women are lapping black men in educational outcomes.

Black women are lagging black men in financial / economic outcomes.

Education is a means to an end, not the end itself. So is employment. Black people trip up on this.

A 1000% the truth.

Your right but that a dangerous mindset. When you know better you do better or move smarter.

Me and my circle keep each other in check and help put each other on. We ask all the hard questions when we see someone fukking up and not minding our business.

Why aren’t you asking why your friend is living paycheck to paycheck. You can help correct what in front of you

Soooo many black people have a individual mindset and love saying “it not my business “

Unfortunately, black folk have incorporated and arguably been forced to incorporate the destruction parts of capitalism.

Also lets stop comparing a group of people who literally have a country to a group who has no country.

You will always have political and power clout when your people actually have a country. Without a country you do not have a political leg to stand on....this is fact!

I wish AAs wouldn't think this way. America is your country! You built this place. Own it.

I think the question to ask is how do we get our piece of the pie and how do we do so knowing that we will get next to no meaningful support from the gov't? It is a cultural change, is it more focus on education and taking majors in fields that have high demand. Is it eschewing traditional American standards and huddking together. Is it staying out of debt? It may be a combo of all these things because whether you like it or not these hispanics and Asians are profiting off the fall of the white middleclass and we are not, statistics be damned.

I said this before, we need a different strategy moving forward. What we've been doing before has not been as successful as we would have liked it to be.

I think it's because AA are more westernized than we care to believe.

The small nuclear family living together is western European. Father + Mom + Kids

Western europe is now less religious and having some family structure changes. Many one Parent + kid households.

They can survive this because their social safety net is so strong compared to the US.

Wyte Americans due to religion and culture still push the small nuclear family. - Aunt's cousins grandparents live elsewhere.- even tho with women's rights / feminism it's taking a dip. - fortunately for them, they're on average so much more wealthy, it not taking a huge toll (drugs and suicide are probably worse for them)

Hispanics on the other hand live deep. Like 3 generations per house. Maybe some more distant relatives too. Oldest person got life insurance for when they drop dead. They split everything.

That is literally the opposite of what AA have been "taught". Personal responsibility. No hand outs. Don't talk about money with elders. Move out when ur 18. Don't let whoever borrow money. Avoid child support. Pay ya own college .. etc

:francis:

The AA community used to say and African community still says (afaik) "it takes a village to raise a child". We've seem to have gotten far away from that mantra.

:beli: And they didn't have to go through slavery or Jim Crow.

Seventy five percent of the 40 million immigrants in this country came after 1970.

We took the kicks in the ass dolo, fought for more and everybody reaped the benefits.

Facts. 10x facts. No minority or ethnicity can or should try to look down on AAs because without them they wouldn't be shyt. AAs blazed the trail for everyone else to prosper. Pay respect to the Elders of Freedom.

Supposed black people need to stop with this bullshyt. Black Americans have to compete with the best and brightest of the world who come here.

Every one of ya'll immigrants aren't broke and busted. Ya'll was successful in your black countries and that's not something to forget.

Meanwhile we've never had a time without "structural racism" on our necks by white people who run shyt.

Ya'll take for granted being the same as the people who run the gov't.

Facts and more facts.


Christ. That's a lot of money. However, I'm Wells Fargo didn't invest in black neighborhoods. WF stay fukking up people's accounts and credit.
