Would you rather meet your relatives from 200 years in the future or 200 years in the past? Why?

[DPresidential]

If you're African American you already know the bullshyt your relatives were going through 200 years ago.

But we don't really know how shamed we should be now considering how dangerously comfortable we've gotten.

You speak to a relative from 200 years ago, look at his back and see the missing skin from being whipped at the hands of a white slave master and you may be ashamed at how much black on black crime is being committed and how we glorify it in our music& demeanor.

See how your(then 12 year old) ancestor's vagina has been defiled and we may open our eyes as to how society oversexualizes our black women.

It's like smoking...we know certain things are bad but we need a scare sometimes to actually put the cigarette out. We revisit our 200 year old ancestors...shyt would change... and in essence...

We will see our future...

 

[ELITE]

What if it's the same as 200 years in the future

but they whippin yo ass on some futuristic shyt like

What movie is that gif from?

 

[Jesus Shuttlesworth]

You tryna fukk up the space time continuum.

 

[Aufheben]

Excellent point, I didn't think of it that way.

 

[#BOTHSIDES]

I'd say the future so i could see what my fam had become and see what life is like and blacks or ppl across the globe

 

[Notorious THC]

Damn that's a difficult question. Depends if we're allowed to change the past or provide proof of the future to the current.

 

[Mr Hate Coffee]

My default answer was the future but then I was like...

... What if the future is on some Mad Max post apocalyptic shyt? then it would be worse than going to the past. Plus it's not like any of them would be able to answer any of my questions of how we got to that point. How many of you nikkas in this thread know what was happening 200 years ago in 1813?

 

[ltheghost]

Future. I want to see my great great great great grandkids. Then ask them about events over the past 200 years. Take that information and use it to rule this world with an iron hand.

 

[O.iatlhawksfan]

Future.

I would want to see what resulted in all my hard work

 

[Pinyapplesuckas]

In the future so they will respect me. my ancestors would probably hate me.

 

[The_Sheff]

Future so they can tell me if the Falcons, Braves, or Hawks have won a championship since my time. If not ill stop wasting my time watching them fukkers.

 

[dennis roadman]

i wanna say past, but then i remembered that my relatives 200 years ago wouldn't be able to speak english

and i dont speak them local languages they were up on

all that time space continuum travel for sitting around nodding and gesticulating

 

[NkrumahWasRight Is Wrong]

Future.

Id try to gather as much information on medicinal advances as possible and expedite the process. Ask them about how they live their day to day lives. Ask them about any major wars that may happen in the rest of my lifetime and plan to be a in a safezone at that time. If they knew anything about sporting events in my time period Id also ask them about that so I could make some bets. Chances are they wouldnt know shyt about me and may be ignorant as fukk but that 1800's shyt is wack. Id like to talk to my relatives who lived through WW2 in Nazi Germany and Fascist Italy, as well as the potential member(s) of the Black Hand though.

 

[Ed MOTHERFUCKING G]

If you're African American you already know the bullshyt your relatives were going through 200 years ago.

Yup...


..and because if that, i want to thank them...tell them about my life...and let them know its because of their hard work and their struggle that I am where I am now.

Imagine showing your relatives #blackexcellence for the first time and showing them the success story of their labor .
