    Black people are america's only matriarchy.

    We send our daughters to college and our sons to prison.

    We are the ONLY race with more boys up for adoption than girls...there are so many Black boys up for adoption...a single gay white male can adopt one on his lunch break.

    The ONLY thing African we were allowed to keep was the matriarchal system...everything else was banned.....hmmmm....I wonder why????

    The FATAL flaw of the matriarchal system is that the females don't submit to their own men...but they will submit to SOMEBODY ELSE'S MAN..


    If Black people loved their sons as much as other races we'd be unstoppable...

    We'd be Gods on earth.

    Our fatal flaw is plain old low self esteem. We put far more value on flossing and looking good more so than family and education. No other people in this country do it at the level we do. Granted no other race is burdened with the history of slavery and Jim crow like us either. Which has made us believe that we need things to be considered half as good as white people. It's sad but self esteem is where it starts.

    We are a despised minority in a BROKE-ASS racist country.

    Our fatal flaw is putting all our eggs in one basket...a leaking raggedy-ass basket at that.

    We don't have a PLAN B nor do we want one.

    Mexican americans(legal and illegal) have mexico...

    Japanese americans have Japan..

    Chinese americans have China.

    WHAT THE FUCK DO WE HAVE?????????????? ....NOTHING that anybody with a fake social security card and a one-way ticket from mexico can have.

    Our fatal flaw is not being INTERNATIONAL...we are too much in love with a country that HATES.

    It's not like they have a country of origin. Most white people in this country are far removed from their country of origin. They don't know the language like mexicans Chinese or Japanese do in this country.

    Dude that's asanine:
    1. Most white people don't know galic
    2. They would be treated like immigrants coming over to take jobs away from harding working natives.
    3. Even though some people might be of European descent they haven't had family ties in over a hundred years.

    I think it depends on who you're talking about. Some folks have closer ties to their ethnic origins/countries/backgrounds than you think.

    I get what you're saying about them being foreign, but it depends on who and where....

    Wow miss the point much? I'm just trying to show that white people would also be at a disadvantage if they went back to their country of origin.

    I think in small numbers you might be right but in large numbers it'll effect the local economy and people will definitely care.

    It depends what they brought to the table. If they brought new technology or whatever that might be of service. We can't say what would happen as a whole. I think them being American might be the biggest issue, not speaking the language etc.

    I think the whole point was that Black Americans don't have a country to go back to. I mean yes a continent, but they can't trace their roots so easily as White folks or even W.I's or Africans and everyone else in between.

    Yeah but that's such a misnomer. I'm a first generation Jamaican born here in the US if I had to leave the US for any reasons Jamaica would be the last place id go. I would totally stick out and I wouldn't blend well.
    As far as new technology I didn't know the United States was Mars IB lol. Most of what we have here is in Europe anyway they're industrialized.

    I know that! Hell, some folks might have some relatives in the backwoods of Poland or West Bubblefuck wherever. You know what I meant.

    I know for half of my ethnic origin (not Europe), they just got street lights back in the 90s.
