You don't get it, it's not about being Poor it's about contentment for who and what they are and what they've attained. Why do you think all these rich politicians come down to the south and talk like they live the same life as the poorer whites for whom they have nothing in common with? It's about contentment, they can be poor, but contempt and will work with what they have. They will be broke and still marry while committing less crime, not because their white people and their better than black people but they're not looking at the rich but content with what they have. Rich whites use them for votes, while not caring about them and we still see ourselves fighting racism 50 years from Malcolm X and his speech and ideology.
That's c00n shyt, sorry to say but it is. If 72% percent of us where married our kids would come out much better, hell, I'd came out better myself. The fact that some many poor single mothers teach their kids contentment while living in a society that hates comtemptment is the sole reason so many black males are falling behind. I was a good example and I'm finally getting it right at a older age.
I'll go a step futher, most black churches that habor larges amounts of single mothers, what are they really telling them? To be a doctor, lawyer? Nope, their telling them to be contempt and happy with what you have. Women are able to be poor and be looking upon better than a man who is poor, this was always my beef with black people, educated black people, they separate from the community once the money rolls in.
This is pretty much it, the whites man's ice is colder....
In response to Bagwell this is on point, you have white dollars in your pocket telling yourself you're better than the blacks who have none, it's all c00n shyt.
This is the problem with black intellectuals by nature, they seperate the community by rich/poor....
You thinking about this wrong. All that Kuhn this and Kuhn that talk means nothing. Because Elise for the meantime the cool kids are doing better than the average black person. That's why I say unless you have power and force you wasting your time. You can't enforce anything so you can't force people to get on your "code".
