I dont think that's it tho. we had some organization before (Panthers, BMF, BGF,, FOLKS), we just weren't smart enough to know that we must hold onto it like a child otherwise we'll lose to the other groups who are better organized. If we had survival instincts (like the jews) we'd know how important it is to keep our organizations up and running.
seriously, wtf. as many black people as we have in prisons we have not one criminal organization? how the fukk does that even work. even mexicans have the mafia and Nuestra Familia, and they didn't even have any fukking money.
Now how the hell are we supposed to run an all black city if we can't do that. All we do is come up with excuses instead of problem solve. thats the problem. "the white power structure held us back" no you fool, get smart "they tried to hold us back but we figured out a way around it, we pulled a 'divide and conqueror and get some jewish folks to back door, meanwhile we chess moved a few rooks." I mean CMON.
meanwhile smart black folks had plenty of opportunity to do this and raise property value but didnt.
I don't know whats going on over there, seriously. The D could have really been superior to ATL, but flopped so hard.
Im sorry but when you have the majority you do. there's just no excuse. I get what you're saying as far as the auto industry, I know all about it, but as far as small business, mid business, property etc etc. no, there's no excuse. white power structure my ass, show the money (jewish method) and they'll bend right over. ATL is a perfect example of that. You dont hear jews in NY complaining about a white power structure.
I'm tired of excuses.
Ive been saying for so long that the black community lack leadership qualities. this is why we fail all the damn time. Name one current organized criminal organization. just one. or even one big time black prison gang like the mexican mafia. something with structure. nothing, there's no one out there.
I just dont get it. we make too many fukking excuses, either we're naturally stupid (which I dont believe) or we gotta start putting a spotlight out, weeding out the weak, calling out the stupid, an really put true LEADERS on a pedestal, not loud mouth people with no charisma just cause they're black. its time for some SORTING out.
but it should be more than checkers, it should be chess. we can't be content with "ok we made middle class cool" because at the end of the day, we're still dependent and lack a power structure. what SHOULD have happened is those that were working the auto industry were breaking this all down to their children and investing, collaborating for something bigger. black people have no foresight.
New York City had 3 million black folks until 2000. They have way less now.
Ya'll screwed up. In 5 to 7 years from now, Detroit will begin gentrification, and the blacks will be moving down south "because it's cheaper"
ETHER!!!!!
Yo, this is too much knowledge for people to ignore. Decades of financial illiteracy and lack of foresight outside the next paycheck fukked black folk up in the northern cities.
