You mean the south, like Florida which is filled with Zoe's who impact the culture? Please stfu.

True -- but remember Florida was a Confederate Slave State. It's still the South. So, even with the large Haitian Population -- the Black population is still rooted in Black America.

Okay. So why has it become a thing of descendants of American slavery saying “I don’t want someone not of the same ilk or tribe, representing their interests”?

We fell for that hope shyt with Obama and now he’s living his best life. Good for him but he doesn’t represent us. So, we know we need truly one of ours. She’s not. Imagine a half Indian and half Jamaican bedwench becomes president before an actual descendant of American slavery. Just imagine how that sounds being read aloud.

She’s purposely hiding her husband from the limelight because that would be her nail in the coffin.

Lol wtf is this.

Obama has as much power as the Republicans in Congress would let him have. Don't get it twisted. A black man in offense doesn't mean shyt when white people will always control office. You can get a bum from the Coli in there and get minimal results. These changes happen because there are waves of people behind him. It's not like Kenya prospered when Obama won and it's not like Jamaica or India will eat if Kamala wins. Lmfao.

(1) Educate our youth on the truth - the #1 impediment against black people is a lack of knowledge of self. We have been brainwashed into thinking all we've ever been was slaves. Teaching our children the true history of our ancestors will boost their self-esteem and that alone will make a huge difference. I know it made a huge difference for me. When I was 13 years old I read this book:

Totally changed my entire life. Made me take school and education seriously. Made me realize I was just as intelligent as any white kid. Gave me the self-confidence to know I could be anything I wanted to be.

(2) Teach our kids how to build businesses and be self-sufficient - the biggest mistake most Americans make (black and white) is we think about just becoming workers. People wanna send their kids to college to get a job rather than instilling in them the knowledge and principles to create their own jobs and businesses so that they and their community can become self-sufficient rather than depending on someone else to give them a job.


I wouldn't wait on white people to do the right thing and correct the evils of slavery. They had ample opportunity for the last 200+ years and done nothing. Why should I expect that to change now?
What does a book about the ancient northeast Africa have to do with ADOS who largely descend from West, Central, and to a lesser extent Southern Africans?
Please explain that!

Need credit lines for those theoretical black businesses. Unfortunately, banks are tight with black people who lack collateral and money for the most part while being overcharged on loans at the same time.

Sounds like a job for reparations.

:snoop: This is what I'm talking about when I say we lack a true knowledge of self.

Once again learn our TRUE history. I'm guessing you believed white trolls when they told you even if the Egyptians were black they were not from West Africa and that we had no connection to them. That is FALSE. I've posted many times about this topic on this site. But if you don't know well here it goes once again.

Before we ended up in West/Central/Southern Africa, we were in North Africa and it was our ancestors that started the ancient civilizations along the Nile. Around 10,000 years ago what we know as the Sahara Desert didn't exist. Instead all across North Africa there was lush green savannah. Even today you can find cave art in places like Algeria showing black people hunting Giraffes and other grazing animals all over North Africa. It was the prime real estate on the African continent back then so everybody was up there. Both ancestors of modern day East Africans and West Africans lived in that part of the continent. It was during this era when the Sahara was green that the precurssors of what we know as Ancient Egyptian civilization started. For example, it was during this time that the Sphnix was built. Which is why the Sphinx has very "negroid" facial features. After the Sahara began to turn into desert about 7,000 years ago, people started migrating to the nearest bodies of water. Some went down to West Africa by the Niger River while their cousins migrated East to the Nile River. Its why even to this day there are certain cultural practices that Africans share from East to West Africa (i.e. female circumcision). Practices like that are evidence of the ancient links that existed before the desertification of North Africa.

Start watching from the 8 minute mark on in this video:

This black british guy's dad is originally from Jamaica and he shares DNA ancestry with the Pharaoh Ramses through his father who is descended from slaves presumably taken from West Africa.

So once again please stop believing white folks lies. We are directly descended from the same people that created Ancient Egyptian civilization.

So again, what does that have to do with African Americans in 2019 and our quest for economic inclusion in the United States of America?

Are you suggesting that ADOS look to the Egyptian government for redress?

No. I'm telling you to stop looking to ANYONE for redress. We won't get justice from anybody especially white folks. Just look at the Rwandan genocide as an example. The whole world just watched as millions of Tutsis were massacred by the Hutus. That genocide only stopped when the Tutsi rebels took over the country and stopped the genocide themselves. It was the Tutsis that saved the Tutsis. Everyone else on earth just sat back and watched. We all we got. And if black folks in America are ever gonna overcome our present condition it'll be because we did it ourselves despite white people's oppression not because white people finally got a conscience and did the right thing.

The reason I advocate educating our people first and foremost is because the mental impact of slavery was even more damaging than the physical or economic damage that was inflicted. You tell a people all they been was slaves for centuries and then they start internalizing that mentality and engage in nothing but destructive behavior. Its the main reason I dislike the designation "ADOS". It continues with this mentality of defining ourselves totally by our enslavement. I know from my experience growing up that if I didn't study our true history and learn what we accomplished before slavery I wouldn't be where I am today. I wouldn't have taken my education as seriously as I did. I wouldn't have had the confidence or belief that I was as smart as anyone else without that knowledge. You'll be amazed how much a child can accomplish if you give them confidence and self-esteem.

You could magically give us reparations today and unless we free ourselves from the mental shackles left by slavery by gaining a true knowledge of self, we would just turn around and give that money right back to the white community. Knowledge of self is the first step to freeing the descendants of American chattel slavery. Without it we won't be able to move forward.

Studies have also shown that immigrant blacks outpace whites as selective schools as well. The conclusion was that it had more to do with resources of immigrant blacks than anything else.

That falls in line with trends showing well of families children are more likely to end up in college.

I'm not sure this has anything to do with race as much as it's an indicator that college admissions aren't merely based on merit and showing that blacks make up much of the core poor demographic in this country.
This specifically measured preference of AA and other African ethnicities. WTF did any of what you said have to do with bias in admissions?
