. Im an 1980s kid and sometimes I wish I was born  in the 70's where black people had soul, stood for something and were  black and proud. It's Just My Thoughts!
I was born in 52. I was fooled by the 60s and early 70s. I thought all that talk and behavior was really serious even tho some of it was silly. But it was mostly a superficial act. Deep down people really hadn't changed and the revolution went out of style. I am not sure if this was just a problem with Black people or if the psych guys running the TV set were able to distract and co-op the whole movement.

The US government learned a lesson from Vietnam and this probably woke up the powers that be. Television is a mass propaganda machine. I remember Black Americans in the 60s arguing about Negro vs Black. I don't recall any arguments about African American. As far as I can remember that term was invented by the media, and we have now heard it so often that's who we think we are. I disliked it from the gitgo. It means the same as Ni66er NAZI to me.
