Yeah the punk ass OP took this historic day to still focus on the so called negatives in the Black community. Its many brothers and sisters who are out here doing our thing, but niggas like the OP are always concerned with the lowest common denominator of blacks and likes to focus on them.
Some of the shit he mentioned is prevalent in all races but low self esteem white folk niggas always worried about some other black person making them look bad in front of whiteytrue definition of a house nigga coon
Whites dont concern themselves with white trash on a daily basis, nor do mexicans,asians, etc...
Why are you even around those type of people if they offend you so much..let them wallow in their so called ignorance
you go DO YOU!!!
You are not alone and it's not self hatred, I agree with all you said. That culture is not helping anyone. In particular it's hurting those who are trying to make positive change. What's really sad is this is not a fad but a culture.
They're quick to label people who dress like Obama and Michelle toms or sellouts because they want a better life. Their idealism is downright stupid. The truth is they are the sellouts, they are the coons because they would rather continue living their wretched going nowhere lives as is rather than to try and do better.
Your not alone I'm sick of it too.
10 million Congolese killed
6 million Jews killed
KKK
I wish you make this statement in public....
i could not have replied any more philosophically fam.It's not time for blame homie. Each one, teach one.
This is a five-star post sometimes black folks are ass backwards.Niggaz fuck up everything if u look at the history
Shut up you took the statement out of context I meant the Nation of Islam and the Panther Party...
N*ggaz also questioned without reasoning like this gentlemen here...
troo dat.
even malcolm x said so.
however, some of us black and sisters will awaken in time.
Now i'm questioning your education........ you have grammar problems bro?
This is a five-star post sometimes black folks are ass backwards.Niggaz fuck up everything if u look at the history
Like I give a f*ck about a your opinion
Just admit you took the statement out of context
It's not out of context because it had no context, you never set a backdrop, you just opened the hole in your face and painted an entire race of people with the same brush.
You can admit that shit.
Maybe you need to add more words to your vocabulary to express what you think else put down that big ass brush..........
I feel you...its sickens me to see dumb blk folks that want to do bullshit with their lives or their children(s) lives...
crackheads
dropouts that are now dope/jack boys
mothers with 3 daddies
men not taking care of their kid(s)
80% of Hip Hop Coonery
muthafuckas like Flava Flav and New York...
when I saw OBAMA deliver that speech...shit I thought about Malcolm...Marcus....James...Jackie...Martin....etc....cats that bust their asses and gave their lives so that we can someday be here...now in 2008....
during that video about OBAMA...his life and family...a brotha nearly had tears in his eyes...this is history man...this is so important....
and I also thought about damn we on the verge of having a blk president man...some of us should look at this as inspiration...change the negative shit in your life....get an education....become something instead of a loser....killing and leeching your own ppl....
I hope the kids are watching this...my nieces and nephews were...this is historical....I hope some of us can use this to change our lives for the better...GOD I CAN ONLY HOPE....
Yeah man, everytime I see Bill Gates, it just makes me hate my next door neighbor who's a meth-head even more. . . . . . .
See how stooopid that sounds?
Get the picture.
Comparing Obama to the niggaz on your corner is like comparing Bill Gates to your average trailor-trash. It's retarded, just like how all of y'all have been acting since this Obama thing has gotten started. Poor Whites & Poor Blacks will always be more ignorant than their middle-class and upper-class brethren, that's just how it is.
How many niggaz you know who are A)half-white B)raised in the most racially diverse place in Amerikkka C)grew up partially in Indonesia D)went to exclusive private schools D) Went to Harvard and Columbia E)
Your comparison would actually be more accurate with Clarence Thomas, who is full-Black, from the Deep South and who suffered from racism full-on back in the day, than it is with Barack Obama. Just keep your racist, anti-Negro bullshit to yourself next time you find something idiotic to say. Oprah's story or even Condoleeza Rice's story is closer to ours than Barack Obama's. I'm glad he's getting in McCain's ass too, but this is ridiculous.
Next thing you know, niggaz are gonna renounce watermelons or something.
Exactly. Thats what whites dont do. Whites never denounce their fellow whites no matter what. Niggas rise above and denounce everything below them, which is why we dont rise as a PEOPLE not a damn person.
White people rise and have no shame coming around poorer whites trying to uplift them. Blacks get rich and try to get as far away as they can, then they wonder why in the few cases they do come back, they are preyed upon. Its corny ass NIGGAS like the OP that keep shit the way it is now. Yes YOU ARE the NIGGA cause only NIGGAS think for themselves and shun others.
What the fuck does a gold grill have to do with anything. Slim Thug has a "grill", yet he owns/has stake in several real estate companies, and gives money to numerous charities in his community on a yearly basis that helps kids every day...What the fuck did his grill have to do with that?
Alot of you dudes I can tell are "crackerized". Basically this dude hates hip hop and thats cool, but you blaming hip hop for the decomposition of the black race? LOL. Niggas comparing Obama, a privileged mixed kid to the struggle of cats growing up facing real adversity... I swear some of you dudes should just bleach your skin.
You don't know what the fuck you're talking about
Obama saw his dad once his entire life, and was raised by his mother and grandparents? What privilege life did he lead? Because he went to a prestigious school on scholarships and loans?
He hates hip hop?
You don't even know his fuckin story
How the fuck can anyone know more about fuckin Slim Thug, than they know about a black man who has a legit chance at becoming president?
Misplaced priorities
People must remember, WE are only as strong as our weakest links.. So instead of shitting on them, and making them feel inferior, we must as a people make a concerted effort to show "them" that there is a better way...
We ALL have some people in our own families who fit the description of a "typical nigga", however, I would be doing myself and them a injustice if I DIDN'T TRY TO HELP... That's what we need to do, the shit starts AT HOME. There is nothing Obama, Oprah, or any other influential black leader can do, it's up to us to start TEACHING our kids at home, so their generation will have hope.
Dude I wasnt even talking about Obama especially far as the hip hop line. Comp, be serious his mom is white, he grew up in Hawaii. His story is great, but like the other poster said its not comparable to an average hood dude. The post wasnt an attack on Obama. It was the fact that cats condemning NON-successful/unenlightened blacks...isnt doing shit for us as a people. Yeah I know its elements of our race that are downright embarassing, but to "hate" your own race for their shortcomings, is retarded.
I understand the point the OP is trying to make...and agree with it to a point.
We,as a people are held accountable by the actions of some of us.
When I see some of these 'gangsta' youngin's...I want to try and smack some sense into them.
Anybody catch HBO's Black List?...great,great show...it is on 'On DeMand' if you missed it.
One of the interviews was Reverand Al...who asked the question,when did it become a sense of pride to be doing time,as opposed to going to college?...when did we equate being a thug with being a man?
My wife delivers babies for a living...her birth center accepts all.
The Jerry Springer stories that she comes home with could fill a book.And it really seems like the lower the I.Q...the more ignorant,the more fertile 'these folks' are.And I will include all races in that...as she sees whites,black and spanish.
You dont know what the fuck you are talking about. #1. My priorities are to myself and family. Even you dont wanna know Obamas story you know it by now. For the record the Slim Thug thing is an example. I know as much about Obama as any politician. Before I vote I do a short look on how they've voted on issues a I care about, or their record and thats about it...
What Im supposed to research the mans whole life because he's black and running for president? I did happen to read his lifes summary but to be honest he's politician, so I only care about his POLITICS. Sorry if Im not studying to be the next contestant on "NAME that OBAMA FACT".
EXACTLY. Alot of these niggas think Obama gonna get elected and he just gonna press a magic button and VOILAAAA!! the Black community is fixed. These same cats talking about they hate niggas aint never handed out as much as an application. If you so smart, are u too good to teach another brother? Or are you so insecure that you feel that if you teach another brother what you know, he may apply it different and ascend to greater levels than you have?
You cats aint following Obama, Obama is preaching unity and upliftment, you niggas are preaching separation and segregation. It starts at home.
So because his mom is white he was privileged
A single white mom raising a black boy in the 60's and 70's? How foolish can you be? All people in Hawaii are rich?
The average black person doesn't stay in the hood.
It's funny how stereotypical and ignorant some of you are, in an attempt to defend the shit.
And you obviously know very little about white people. They don't give a fuck about poor whites. They don't exist to them. That's why Phil Graham can say we are a nation of whiners. That's why McCain can say middle class is someone who isn't making a couple of mil a year. A lot of white people have generations of of being affluent. If you are black and achieved, how many other of your friends or family are going to be like that?
If i'm alone in my thinking/feeling, then so be it...but the rap music/lyrics, the clothes, the gold grills, the bright red weaves, the violence, all the dudes sitting around mooching off of their mothers and baby moms, not working, spending all of their money on weed, video games and clothes - the whole 9...I'm just getting sick of it...
if people want to call that self hatred - so be it. but I'm officially done with it. and before cats get on me....I'm not from the suburbs, been living around this shit my whole life.
People always talk about UNCLE TOMS/SELLOUTS and the black middle class not doing enough or whatever...truth be told when its all said and done - if it weren't for people like Barack Obama, Oprah, and fuck it - Condie Rice and Colin Powell, we'd be nothing but a bunch of THESE running around:
And a lot of us come from broken homes.
And he doesn't need to save black people, Slim Thug is going to do it
Dog; I'll have to co-sign with you on this..I admit; I've been feeling the similar way lately..And by no means is that "Self-Hatred", regardless of what other say.
There comes a time where you get SICK & TIRED of the consistent bullshit...
