I think that many of us, and I used to do it aswell, have gotten so used to look outside as for the reason why we CAN'T.
We have gotten so ushed to being the victims and we can't see anything else.
We think they we, of all the people on earth, throughout all of history, are the only people who have suffered, as if we have a premium on pain.
We don't. We also want to point the finger at Europeans and slavery as why we should hate them, yet...we ignored the fact that AFrican were the FIRST to sell slaves, and to add insult to injury slaves were sold to Europeans for SPICES...but we are to ignore this fact.
Or they will say "Well you can't blame all of Africa, because it was only a small portion of AFricans".....if you point out the same "Well you can't blame all whites because if was only a small portion of whites" they will tell you its not the same.
They tell you that we can't suceed, that we can't compete, that we can't learn.....and then in the same breath want to tell you how strong we are.
Hmmmmm...........
Until we stopp looking at them, and start looking at us, we will never reach our full destiny as a people. Saying that we should take much of the responsibility for out own actions is VERY unpopular, it removes the "other" and shows us to be the ones who can fix our problems.
And think you for the compliment.......but you do know the BTUB (Blacker Than You Brigade) is going to attack you for it.

Remember how the jews suffered far farmore than blacks did. The jews were treated worse, men women children, babies worked as slavesfor the nazis and then were executed, by means of disease, starvation, exaustion or lethal gas. These people were white and it was more recently than slavery. Some of the people who did this to the jews are probably still alive today, walking free.

We still need to grasp the fact that 'we' did not suffer and probably neither did any of our ancestors. (I dont know about yours). I would also like to boldly say that there is a difference between black and white culture. When a black person says or does something wrong or negative,they do not hold every single black person that has ever lived responcible, and they understand that (or think) that every single one of us are individuals.

When a white person does something wrong or negative black people (or the black people on these boards anyway) fail to interpret the action as a single incident done by one white man, and instead think that every white person is identical and so therefore every white man must pay.

We need to start seeing each other the way they (or the majority)see us. Us individuals. For example we call other blacks brother or sister, even though they have no relation whats so ever.
