WHILE YALL JOKE: I rather have Rachel Dolezal on my side than 1000 c00nS like Pharrell and Raven

[OG_StankBrefs]

I have a hard time believing her end goal was to do the above, I think whatever involved black culture she wanted to be involved in...

but... That would be trying to apply logic to a crazy person lol.



idk


I dont really care i guess is what it comes down too, what she is doing doesn't compare to a fraction of what going on with these cops and other things.... I'm more upset at how us as black people are handling it, and how we are totally following the media and letting it direct our attention.

Guess we can just give dismissive type passes to any n err body who profits(education, job opportunities,trust, sympathy, etc.) off our struggle/culture wheneva it suits em then.

 

[ReggieFlare]

Nah...she's posing as a black person.

And like I said, she's off her rocker for doing so. What is your point?

Ok your right we need to make and example of this women. Because there's nothing more pressing going on....


Like this shouldn't even be blip on our radar right now....but since it is how about we not turn into meme's and jokes? I haven't seen a white person post up a meme yet on my social media...but all my people are....sigh.


This could have so easily been handled, like every other person that lies in the work place on there information.


instead its national news and trending!


"White women wants to be black! Works on NCAAP for years!"

That isn't strange to you breh?



White people are laughing at us and we are up and arms about irrelevant stuff arguing among our selfs, its really simple the lady was wrong to have lied if she was gaining money or for her job.. how much further people want to drag it out is up to them. I'm just upset us as black people keep chasing our tails as soon as the media points at it.

No one is going to let you do anything. You got to break down barriers and create alliances when it suits you and break alliances when it has fulfillled its purpose. Blacks have only themselves to count on. It's time they act like it.

listen what i'm trying to tell you. as a GROUP> not an individual or a select few. but an entire GROUP or a mass amt of people from a GROUP called BLACK AMERICANS. can not RAISE themselves up in the US of A without White people's Assistance. They put these boundaries in place. They put these walls up. You cant break them down unless you ask them to break them down. We do not have any weapons(we aint talking nra and hand guns either). We dont have an army large enough if it ever went down, we dont have the $$$$, nor do we have enough people strategically located throughout society in leadership roles to make policy changes happen.

You know where most of our money comes from? Entertainment. Nothing has changed in all of these years.

you think i'm joking. but you've seen the black wall street in tulsa, OK. you saw what they did. What if they were still around today? we would have at least one group that had the $$$ and power to lobby on some black folks behalf. NOt just some social group like the naacp.

no...you still dont believe me. well lets take a look at something more recent.

....
Published on January 24, 2015
African Americans for decades flocked to Prince George’s County to be part of a phenomenon that has been rare in American history: a community that grew more upscale as it became more black.

The county became a national symbol of the American Dream with a black twist. Families moved into expansive new homes, with rolling lawns, nearby golf courses and, most of all, neighbors who looked like them. In the early 2000s, home prices soared — some well beyond $1 million — allowing many African Americans to build the kind of wealth their elders could only imagine.

DASHED DREAMS: This is the first part in a series looking at the plight of the black middle class, particularly in Maryland’s Prince George’s County, the nation’s highest-income majority-black county.

Part 2: Half of the loans on newly constructed homes in one Prince George’s County subdivision during the housing boom in 2006 and 2007 wound up in foreclosure.

Part 3: The plight of the Boateng family, who face more than $1 million in debt, shows how some of the people swallowed up by the easy credit era have yet to reemerge.

But today, the nation’s highest-income majority-black county stands out for a different reason — its residents have lost far more wealth than families in neighboring, majority-white suburbs. And while every one of these surrounding counties is enjoying a strong rebound in housing prices and their economies, Prince George’s is lagging far behind, and local economists say a full recovery appears unlikely anytime soon.

The same reversal of fortune is playing out across the country as black families who worked painstakingly to climb into the middle class are seeing their financial foundation for future generations collapse. Although African Americans have made once-unthinkable political and social gains since the civil rights era, the severe and continuing damage wrought by the downturn — an entire generation of wealth was wiped out — has raised a vexing question: Why don’t black middle-class families enjoy the same level of economic security as their white counterparts?

The impact of the financial devastation of the past several years is hardly visible along the quiet, well-tended streets of many Prince George’s neighborhoods. The county has the highest foreclosure rate in the District region, yet few houses appear to be abandoned.

Instead, the slow-motion crisis operates mostly in private, limiting people’s options, constricting their vision and forcing a seemingly endless series of hard choices. Having your wealth vanish means making pivotal life decisions — about where to send your children to school, saving for college, making home improvements and setting aside something for retirement — knowing you have no financial leeway.

“This big gorilla on your back, it changes you,” said Fred Bryant, 40, who lives with his wife and two daughters in a brick-front Colonial featuring a one-acre lot, high ceilings, an impressive two-story foyer and a mortgage far higher than the house is worth. “Sometimes you find yourself boiling mad when you shouldn’t be.”

oh we aint done. and do not skim it. READ IT

Wealth in black and white

The recession and tepid recovery have erased two decades of African American wealth gains. Nationally, the net worth of the typical African American family declined by one-third between 2010 and 2013, according to a Washington Post analysis of the Federal Reserve’s Survey of Consumer Finances, a drop far greater than that of whites or Hispanics.

The top half of African American families — the core of the middle class — is left with less than half of the typical wealth they possessed in 2007. The wealth of similarly situated whites declined by just 14 percent.

Overall, the survey found, the typical African American family was left with about eight cents for every dollar of wealth held by whites.

Not only is African American wealth down, but the chances of a quick comeback seem bleak. Just over a decade ago, homeownership — the single biggest engine of wealth creation for most Americans — reached a historic high for African Americans, nearly 50 percent. Now the black homeownership rate has dipped under 43 percent, and the homeownership gap separating blacks and whites is at levels not seen in a century, according to Boston University researcher Robert A. Margo.

“There was never a period in American history where the wealth gap was not enormous, but after this most recent recession, the wealth gap went from dismal to even worse,” said Darrick Hamilton, a professor of economics and urban policy at the New School in Manhattan.

For a substantial number of African Americans who remain homeowners, their properties only hurt their net worth. According to the Fed survey, 1 in 7 owed more on their mortgages than their homes were worth in 2013, a sharp increase from 2010.

By comparison, just 1 in 18 white homeowners was underwater, an improvement from 2010. Also, African Americans own fewer businesses, stocks and other equities than whites — assets that have all recovered sharply since the recession.

Many researchers say the biggest portion of the wealth gap results from the strikingly different experiences blacks and whites typically have with homeownership. Most whites live in largely white neighborhoods, where homes often prove to be a better investment because people of all races want to live there. Predominantly black communities tend to attract a narrower group of mainly black buyers, dampening demand and prices, they say.


Residents of Maryland’s Prince George’s County have seen the housing crisis destroy their wealth. Click for more photos.

In places such as Prince George’s County, where many people chose to live at least in part because of the comfort and familiarity they felt in a majority-black community, that meant their home brought them less wealth than if they had purchased elsewhere, economists say.

Scholars who have studied this dynamic and real estate professionals who have lived it say the price differences go beyond those that might be dictated by the perceived quality of schools, or the public and commercial investment made in particular neighborhoods. The big difference maker, they say, is race.

^^why does no one want to move next to black people(even middle to high income black folks... except for other black folks? Thats because a narrative has been driven home by guess who? THe white man. that He is the greatest thing on earth and that the black man is scum of the earth. That simple narrative that whites get to perpetuate thru media(they control it) has not just made us LOOK bad, but you can see in this article that its costing us money/wealth.

Pay attenion grasshoppers, i'm trying to learn you something today.

That isn't strange to you breh?



White people are laughing at us and we are up and arms about irrelevant stuff arguing among our selfs, its really simple the lady was wrong to have lied if she was gaining money or for her job.. how much further people want to drag it out is up to them. I'm just upset us as black people keep chasing our tails as soon as the media points at it.

- Dere's dis technique called multitasking, breh.

- If you can't see how dis is a big deal and could potentially set a societal change in how we live..especially to da detriment of black folk...then I dunno what to tell you, cuh.

It may seem small and silly to you but dis person managed to take away a college scholarship, teaching jobs, a national organization councilship spot, and countless otha shyt away from a qualified sista(s). By wearing blackface and lying err single fukkin day for da past 20 years.

If dat's what you call a lil "blip" then

 

[Gil Scott-Heroin]

Unless she was posing as a black person for sinister reasons, I don't see the issue here. Sure, there's something strange going on with her mentally but from what little I've read about her she is only helping out black people

Some people just want to look for something to be outraged about though

That's because you need to look more closely.

 

[jwonder]

I can disparage fake millitant blacks without passing out honorary black cards to non whites. There are real blacks who deserve recognition in the black community and are getting none by their own brethren but I am suppose to kiss the feet of a white woman faking the funk? You guys are reallly pathetic...this isn't a either/or situation.

Ok lets be fake outraged by somebody impersonating a black person to help blacks. But yes lets keep people like Creflo, TD Jakes, and Eddie Long that destroy the black community. Makes sense.

Furthermore. Who gives a fukk what you think. You are a nobody. Get off my dikk. I'm not interested.

A scholarship, A teaching job and more....but we are mad at her for getting pass all the back ground checks and follow ups. Sounds like we need to check these organizations that straight up gave this lady all these "perks" that are for actual people of color. My nikka's can't get jobs in warehouses the background checks are so thorough but this lady managed to get through numerous backgrounds checks with not a lick of black in here, and not even looking black really.

It may seem small and silly to you but dis person managed to take away a college scholarship, teaching jobs, a national organization councilship spot, and countless otha shyt away from a qualified sista(s). By wearing blackface and lying err single fukkin day for da past 20 years.

White people do this day in and day out, the fact that she wanted to be a black while doing it doesn't make it any greater or worst than the rest of them that do it out of fear, hate and anger.

 

[Yup]

That's not the problem, the reason we should be outraged, is because she could have done all of these things as a white woman, but she used 'blackness' to benefit financially. She wasn't a community organizer or some other low level job, she worked in Academia, where real Black women have an almost impenetrable glass ceiling. She profited off her art, that would not have been taken as seriously if she were white. She attached herself to a struggle she has no personal involvement in. She can walk away from her Blackness whenever it's convenient and even worse. The NAACP looks like a group of buffoons who couldn't tell the difference between a light-skinned Black woman and a white woman in Blackface and clearly did not properly vet her I mean she was outed by a white dude.

I guess the problem I have is that. You got all these mega church preachers do way worse and people seem to be ok with it. I mean seriously, you don't see anything wrong with that picture?

We gotta bigger problem than what this broad did. She may have made profit. But she damn sure didn't have to adopt four black kids. shyt black people aint even adopting black kids.
