You're right in that regard. You are stuck in oppression.
- Kwame Toure (Stokely Carmichael)"Any time you make an analysis of an oppressed people in any aspect of their lives and you leave out the enemy, you will never come to a correct analysis. On the
contrary, you will blame the oppressed for all of their problems..."
Nope. Black people teach their youths to maintain the cycle of poverty. Any oppression African-Americans feel in this day and age is merely contrived, for we live in a post-racial society. The black community's power structure is fragmented due to poor/tardy attendance at the weekly Black Community meetings, resulting in little to no change.- Kwame Toure (Stokely Carmichael)"Any time you make an analysis of an oppressed people in any aspect of their lives and you leave out the enemy, you will never come to a correct analysis.

Indict the global system of white supremacy,
not those it oppresses.
That "New Black" ******** separates people that should not be separated. I do not like it.
We SHOULD stop blaming others for our problems at this point, though.
When I was a kid, me and my friends were well aware of the idea that the only way you could make it out of the hood was to sell drugs or get a record deal or make it big as an athlete. We talked about it, and internalized it. Luckily my mother addressed that concept directly to me and told me that it was BS. Unfortunately a lot of my friends had parents or caretakers who either agreed with that piece of conditioning or didnt bother to tell their kids otherwise. Now most of those cats I grew up with are living out that self-fulfilling prophecy. A lot of them didnr make it out, and they still believe the above mentioned methods are the only ways to make it out, and they're teaching their kids to keep that cycle of poverty going until someone down the line becomes trapper/rapper/athlete of the year.
A LOT of our oppression at this point is mental and self-imposed. I woild NEVER deny the hand we've been dealt over centuries in this country, but the Black community is ABSOLUTELY NOT doing enough to straight up fold our hand and start over. Instead we're commiserating and complaining to each other and after we've finished complaining to eachother we fall back feeling glad that we got that off our chests.
Exactly ....that's my issue with that dumbass title
Black people always find a way to separate only to still be a *****
It's all on how you present yourself...tone don't matter...imoExactly ....that's my issue with that dumbass title

Its lightskin vs darkskin all over again. White people laugh at us cuz it's all the same to them. No other race gives a **** about skin complexion amongst black people. But I will admit lightskinned ****** have an advantage in the fact that they are seen as more attractive and less threatening to white people.
At this point I'm more ashamed at how we treat each other. I fear being discrimiated against by my own black people than any other race.
