Ferguson, Missouri Community Furious After Teen Shot Dead By Police

It wouldn't make a difference. Politicians rarely prioritize the interests of the people. Politics in this country are $$$ driven, so corporate interests will always trump. When the black community begins to prop up and fund more of it's own businesses, they will have economic power which will open up political influence. The only difference between a black politician and a white politician is the amount of melanin in their skin.

The catch 22 in this scenario is that black businesses have to incorporate themselves into a system of capitalism that in itself is oppressive to the middle-class and poor. In order for these businesses to thrive, they have to target demographics that have the capital to support them. Which is rarely ours.

Why don't we have the capital? Because we don't have the jobs. Why don't we have the jobs? Because, in addition to being held back at the starting line due to this countries racial past, we often lack the education, motivation and focus.

This is something that will undoubtedly change as generations pass and we dig ourselves out of the hole that this country created for us.

 

Jesus...Radio Raheem lookin mufucka and his platoon ruining shit for everyone else.

 

as far as education....american culture doesnt value it until they cant do the job properly or get the job.

america is too into sports versus education

 

i said this in a different thread....bp need to manage their money properly (including me) , spend money in your hood, get educated (you dont need a phd. vo-tech is good too), and vote

 

Pretty much

But on the bright side there was just one incident like that after what happened to mike brown. Most people know that doing shit like that doesn't really help the cause.

 

yeah, looters and the type arent there for the cause ...they are there for stuff

 

Hell, all it takes is one. Didn't help they were 20 deep either.

 

there was a peaceful protest in Toronto...some guys at the back of the crowd started looting and throwing rocks.....guess what??

They turned out to be Toronto Police officers.

Look up this phrase

Agent Provocoteur....

Welcome to the new offense: Existing While Black.

 

What do you mean new?
My prediction is blacks with means are going to slowly get the fuck out of dodge. Life is toofucking short to be dealing with this bullshit and honestly its truly breaking my heart to see how many people I used to be friends with don't care or defend this excessive bs.

 

It's already happening/happened. This bs does not reflect blacks with means.

 

In bigger numbers then. My entire focus is Canada right now.

 

The more things change, the more they stay the same

 

True POJ since 1619.

 

what a foolish statement....

canada is just as worse....its a not racial utopia as you think they are.....

canadian blacks still face racism in canada just like their black counterparts in the US......

have you heard of africville?
