Yea, that is funny, in a sort of non-funny way.stephen says
''The funny thing is that afro-brazilians say the exact opposite and think that black Americans are more together.And you will see so many white people trying to do capoeira and practice religions like candomblé,using afro-brazilian words like moleque and the face of capoeira in the UFC world is usually the face of a mestiço not a black person so much for no infiltration by non-blacks''
The majority of Black Americans aren't who I am talking about. As little as some of the people on this site mite think of me, it'll be people with my type of mentality that ultimately help bring Blacks back from the brink. We aren't going to alleviate our issues bashing each other, which is what a lot of Black people seem perfectly content on doing. This is hope for Black Americans who have their minds right, just not much for the ones who don't.Black America is doomed to fail we are never going to give up the regressive culture here that's why.
You create solidarity. You create solidarity by aligning with people with think like you and want the same things as you do. A lot of people on this site and people on sites like gen-x, topix, tireBlackman sites and whatnot, are never going to see any of the change they claim the seek, because no one focusing on and the actual problems. They are too engrossed in battering each other and complaining to realize just how counter productive they are. I mean seriously, what make self haters on the internet really think they are better people than the hoodrats and the so called lazy bums they like to chew out? What really makes you better or any different from them?Good but how do we get it done when there is no solidarity.
They don't contribute to the bettering of Black society
......and neither do you.
Not the ones I have conversed with, both on and offline. There are Black Americans who look down on other Black Americans. So what? Ignorance is everywhere, but not everybody is ignorant.Africans look down on black Americans and don't see them as African.
They don't matter. I bash self haters for this exact reason, and you saw how adamant they were to retain their right to self hate, so f*ck 'em. Black people who love Black people need to concern ourselves with ourselves. Again, not everybody is so ignorant.Black Americans bash Africans calling them names and clowning them every chance they get.
That's because on our perception. We don't control our own culture, primarily because we don't control the things that influence our culture. TV, movies, internet, education. It's a free for all and nobody gives a sh*t about anyone else, that's why it's so easy for us to bash each other.Afro-latinos come to the states and use a white European language and lines that Europeans drew in the ground to only identify with they're nationality and disassociate them selves from black Americans to only associate withe the same people who discriminated against them in they're own country and hind behind a Latino label which is not even a race to avoid saying they are black.
Once we cultivate an influential presence, we will be the ones who influence the culture, which will then influence the minds of the people.
