I think you bring up an excellent point. What we need to do as a community is to promote safe-sex and encourage young boys, even some "adults men" to wear condoms . I don't think you can stop young adults from engaging in sexual encounters, but that also leads to pregnancy and out of wedlock births. Do you think young white kids don't sex? Yes, they are encourage to have protective sex. Even some white parents put their girls on birth control pills as soon as they are old enough to engage in sexual activity. I think every young black girl should be put on birth control pill and the boys should be strongly encouraged to wear condom.
The more i see Obama.......the more I hate niggas

I can walk around the hood
I'm from the hood
So fuckin what.
And that means what?
You have misplaced priorities. You sound like dumb ass Fat Joe. I can walk around the hood. Is that going to be on your headstone? Moving to the suburbs and wanting to do better is a bad thingThat's being white? Getting an edcuation? No wait, I can't read right, even though it's what you're implying.
Instead of bragging about what college you went to, black people brag about things that don't mean shit. Only black americans do that shit. Like it's a badge of honor. Like being from Compton, turns you in to O-Dog or some shit. I suggest you travel and you'll find thousands of places across the world that are worse off. Billions of people across this planet have it worse. But you narrow minded muthafuckas wallow in self pity. Limiting yourself on what you can accomplish. You have people dying coming from Cuba and Haiti to be here. Chasing the american dream. Us, a lot of us settle and limit ourselves. Millions of people would like to be in your shoes. And instead of striving to do better, your claim to fame...I can walk around the hood
And no there are many doctors who come from the inner city, there are hundreds. What is your negative attitude going to get? Thinking they are the exceptions. That's not me?
Who gives a fuck what Obama's background is. When he went to Harvard they didn't see his background. They saw his skin color. The same when he first decided to run for senate. They didn't pick a white man to run against him, they picked Alan Keyes. Everyones struggle is different. Who cares who's closer to yours.
Our generation is doing a disservice to our forefathers. We're going to be the first generation not to do better. You think all the blame belongs with white people? Black people have no blame in their current condition is? We aren't supposed to want our people to do better.
And if you didn't realize it, you can help a lot more people with corporate backing and a million dollars in your pocket. Kids in the hood are going to look at you like you're stupid. Why should they listen to someone who's staying in the same neighborhood they live in? When you haven't applied the shit you're saying to yourself. That's if you're still living in the hood like you claim
And the irony of this shit, is that you call other black people the N word, but are upset at the original poster
Dumb nigga, and yes I said nigga, just like Huey P. Newton and Bobby Seale and The Last Poets and Gil Scott Heron said nigga, did you even read what I said about Oprah, Clarence Thomas, and Michelle Obama. Obviously you didn't if think that I said anything that you claimin' I said about there not being Black doctors from the "hood". Nigga, I'm the one who brought up there being Black doctors from the hood, why do you act like you're telling me something. I shook hands personally with one of the finest doctors in Amerikkka, who's from Detroit, so don't tell me.
We're talking about averages, not the exception. What is so hard to understand about that? The average student who goes to the bad school is not going to do as well as the average student who goes to a good school. Why do you think "good schools" exist? Why do you think Barack's grandparents sent him to the Punahou school, instead of some bullshit school in the ghetto? Because they thought he'd get a good education and be able to go to a good college and get a good job.
If he was from Detroit, South Central, Chicago, or went to one of the worst schools in Hawaii, his story might be totally different, that's all anybody's saying.
Comparing a guy who went to the best schools his whole life to us, who didn't is unrealistic. It's possible to be successful going to those schools, but it's not likely, that's the point. That's why it's like comparing Bill Gates to some random redneck. Bill Gates' parents were a prominent lawyer and a prominent member of a bank's board of directors, and then went to private schools. That gave Bill Gates the advantages he needed to be Bill Gates. You think that if Bill Gates grew up in the Ozark Mountains somewhere in in Arkansas somewhere without running water, he'd be the exact same guy?
If you do, you're smoking crack.
And nobody's bragging about being from the hood. Where did you hear me doing that? I said, stop lying on my people. That's what I said. Stop saying that we're not happy for Barack and that it's people from the hood calling him a "sellout", when the hood is about 99.9999999 percent behind him, and is more behind him than they've been behind anything for a million years. You're the one bragging about where you can walk. The only thing I've bragged about this whole thread is being productive in "the hood", not being from there. I'm going to get out, as soon as I get the opportunity, but I'll never forget where I come from and be no punk bitch "sellout", just so "massa" can pat me on the back.
The Last Poets- "Nigg*ers are scared of revolution"
Anytime white americans have black people so mentally enslaved that...
Moving to a better neighborhood
Getting an education
Dressing in anything more than a white T
...are white things and wanting to be like whitey
...and if you achieve those things you are a sell out and coon
You know your people have a lot of problems, dudes are too defensive to see it
Who says that? Name me one person who says that !!!!!!
Even 50 Cent, Puffy, and Jay-Z are never out of business suits and live in places like Connecticut and shit. They're bragging about their business acumen and shit. You don't know what the fuck you're talking about.
I only read the first page, but I 100% agree with the OP.. and I'm in Brooklyn... niggas have so much opportunity around and capitalize on none of it, then go listen to and follow jay-z/jeezy/etc, and when they are 30 and jobless, blame it on white people (I'm definitely not trying to downplay their role in this).
I'm headed to class on a saturday, a class I paid for. Theres dozens of schools out here that don't charge niggas a penny, in fact they pay them $2500+ a semester in grants, niggas have no jobs and yet won't find the time to step on a campus and enlighten themselves.
The shit is sad, and it's even more sad in light of what Obama is doing. For those that compare Bill Gates and rednecks, it's not the same yo. Don't focus on white people, stop analyzing right and wrong by what white people do. We have our youth trying to live what 30 year old coons rap about. If you wanna draw a parallel, how many white kids are out there trying to be the white-trash on jerry springer? On the other hand, how many niggas in the hood are along the lines of the dude on maury? How many niggas in the hood, dress, act, and talk, like these niggas. That shit is the norm in many places.
In BK we have a diverse group of people, different types of people from all races. Just last night I was on one block where 100 white people (and some blacks) sitting down at a lounge drinkin n chillin... walk across th street to hear a nigga sayin he gotta get a gun cause sum1 snuffed him
While the OP's ideas don't address the entire issue, nor the bigger picture, he does put his foot down to make a point that i agree with - Black people need to do better for themselves. Point as many fingers as you want, but we are just not doing enough to make our lives better and our children's lives better. If we will live, act, and sing about this coon shit, then National Geographic will make documentaries about it, the news will report on it, and Bill O' Reilly will play it on his tv show when a chinese kid shoots up a school.
At the end of the day, we have to take the initiative and make better choices. I understand it's easier said than done, but I feel the OP on voicing his concern/opinion and i'll gladly reward it with 5 stars
Nigga, you gotta compare White folks to Black folks, because that's who we live with. The bottom line is White folks have tried to be like every White trash icon of the past 50 years, whether it's Elvis, Britney Spears, Eminem, or anybody else. Jerry Springer, Maury, and every other show is full of White people who don't know their baby's daddy or who are having sex with their cousins.
You say in one breath don't compare ourselves to Whites and then proceed to do so with the Jerry Springer/Maury comparison.
I agree people should take advantage of their opportunities though. I definitely agree with that.
It's funny to me how a few people don't understand the point the OP was making.
He was referring to black people in the Chris Rock context.
Hopefully that will help some of you in your comprehension skills, because some of you are on some other shit.
I think everybody gets that. It just works better as a joke told by a stand up comedian, as opposed to actual, factual reality. If you really look at what "niggaz" are. They are what every society has, an oppressed, undereducated, maligned, discriminated against minority. America is one of the few countries with enough resources that they could get rid of the "nigga", but they actually like that they exist, because it justifies all the racist shit that they do to Black people. And other Black people throwing their weakest links out the window is not a smart strategy, just like Whites know they wouldn't win no racial war without them crazy crakkkaz from Appalachia.
Yup, everybody should be put on the pill.
C/S
Yeah, but "niggas" is a diverse group than u guys describe it. There's people who are ignorant but if they were taught better they would do better, they suffer b/c they have no choice, they don't dream b/c dreams never come true and do what they have to.
I know jail niggas who are rooting for Obama but unfortuneately they can't vote already, not by choice. I saw it on (sorry for the promotion) BET, the fight for ex-cons to vote, and one dude got his rights back. He actually made it to college and got himself a career as a lawyer as well.
that whole if u knew better u'd do better group.
But I agree there are ignorant people that are happy in their ignorance and promote it, prominant in my mind are Jim JOnes and Lil Wayne who have sucessfully brainwashed this younger generation into wanting to claim g-shine, suuu-wwhhhoo, ridin dat 5 homie, and all that other nonsense....
But then u have Nas, who is ignorant, truthfully, I'm pretty sure he never even graduated high school, yet most of us hold him in high regard or did prior to the "******" hype/album/shirts. I mean listen to If I Ruled the World, World is Yours, Black Girl Lost, Black Zombies, Coon Picnic, etc and u have an idea of who he really is as a person!
I look at Dr. Cornell West, a educated dude, yet he still has his gap toothed, big ass afro and no homo, but beautiful ghetto ass smile like an even wiser version of my grandfather, yet he's not what most people picture as the decent, clean cut, well-to-do black man. Or Dr. Michael Eric Dyson, who looks like an Obama type, but he freestyles, he comes on Hip Hop under fire type shows!!! U know, I'm just sayin u countin people out man... Spike Lee is or should be an award (their awards) winning director but he rocks t-shirts and jeans, and has his own Jordans.

i think we need to be more accepting of the way we are, and stop being so sensitive. some of us say "skrimps" instead of "shrimp". so what. we are diverse. you have your barack obamas and you have your ashy larry's. its ok. hotghettomess is no less acceptable than hee haw. or married with children. stop being ashamed of your own people. if thats how we are then thats how we are. fuck whoever has a problem with it
Exactly, but these niggaz are "elitists" who live to show the world how much better than other Blacks they are, just like Condi and Larry Elder and people like that. These niggaz are the exact same.
They refuse to see your point that the "nigga" is made, not born and if Black kids had all the same opportunities that Obama and a lot of White folks have(private schools, living abroad), they wouldn't be niggaz. The nigga would be extinct.
I agree with you to an extent, which is why I always post pics of Brett Favre or Bill Clinton or George W. Bush in threads like these. Nobody tells Bush or Clinton that they can't be good ol Southern boys who butcher the English language sometimes. It's part of their "charm". Niggaz are the ones who go out of their way to change everything about themselves to please honkies, meanwhile honkeys accept that all Whites aren't the same.
this thread.......is the 100% truth!
I gave up on niggas a long time ago. Everytime I go out with my old lady I always see the lil 12 year old wanna be gangsta with the pulled down pants, finger waves and fake gold in his mouth. Shit's pathetic, but I tell you one thing let one of them fuck boys try to rob me I will kill them point blank and say it was in self defense. And I don't care who's around when I do it.

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:
PREACH
^^^The realness in this post is frightening.
^^^The realness in this post is frightening.
The fact that other black people in this thread cant see that realness is the frightening thing.........
it's the rich, the middle class, and the poor!
That's it in a nut shell.

And that goes for blacks from all walks of life to really band together and be supportive rather than just tearing each other apart on some ol' elitist/hood shit.
Wow Gene.
this was posted on page 3 and should have ended this thread.

yeah i was thinking the same thing.
6 pages and it's more people against what the OP said then for it. i figured it was because people were feeling "ostracized" because they were being described in his original statement. but it may be something as simple as reading comprehension.
Well I was raised in the suburbs, and I dont look down on people who live in the hood, I'm proud of my fam, and thats my family's origin....the hood. But I been made fun of for the longest for being educated, for having some sense, and speaking clearly and the issue is quite clear. Black or white has nothing to do with it.... STUPIDITY WILL ALWAYS FEEL THREATENED BY KNOWLEDGE. Stupidity has no substance and is scared of being exposed for what it really is, so it attacks. Igonorant niggas would rather you waste your life away not doing a damn thing, and seek to degrade you at the slightest attempt to better yourself.
A lot of us have a problem telling the difference between ordinary black people who live in a bad area, and ignorant mf's who have no intention on improving their current economic status. And that disgusts me. Answer me this....what REALLY is the difference between a nigga that would rob/murder you and a racist whiteman that would rob/murder you?
My answer: Not a damn thing. But heres the kicker....the black man that is TRULY the sell out, is the black man selling drugs to our people, killing and robbing our people and in general poisoning the progress of our people. The whiteman has employed our own to further our demise.
When we begin to see what a TRUE sellout is, we'll stop glamorizing these dumn ass, selfish ass, I gotta be rich at the expense of my entire race ass rappers. We're the sellouts because we literally contribute to the death of our race by supporting blacks who are killing us.
We'll get educated as fuck about blood diamonds, then go buy a rap album where all the nigga do is talk about murdering his own. Pay hommage to the nigga that got shot and survived, but show no love to the college grad.
I BET THIS, IF FOLK START TAKING A REAL LOOK AT WHO THE SELL OUT TRULY IS....WE MIGHT FIND THAT ITS SOME OF US.

truth.
I see your point, but this isn't about what people are saying about us as black people. I see it as us refusing to continue to be be labeled as the fools of the world. No other group of people allow this to happen to them.
We have allowed ourselves to go along with the sterotypical images of gold toothed, dumb ass niggas with gold chains, killing everybody in the neighborhood with a gang culture. It's so pervasive that even our childen have bought into it.
Lets not condone that! We've never stepped up to the plate and said enough of this shit.
The other problem is that the images that has labeled us in that light is not even a black creation... its the media; they constantly promote the image in every aspect of human life, in the movies, hip-hip gansta music, commercials etc.... this media "killing" has been in existance for a very long time, its not a new creation
fuck niggas....seriously....
i dont like them i'm from the "hood" seen men stabbed taking a piss over sneakers in the mall....seen a rapist get protected by the block and the girl turned into the victim....seen drug dealers waiting where kids go for school buses and try to convert them into dealing or becoming users...seen niggas who hang out infront of the queens central library hollaring at high school and younger girls....
also seen situations where a crime is commited and niggas decide to protect the criminal and not tell the police...seen niggas start shit with police then yell police abuse...i've seen my own family victims of crime and niggas keep their mouth shut on some no snitching shit....so fuck Niggas....let them burn in hell to be honest with you.
I have no love for niggas....they tend to ruin things for hardworking people...the media tends to target them from tv/film to food....
positive black images are catered more towards whites and "elites" whereas nigga movies and coonish shit is targeted more towards niggas and broke people more liquor adds up everywhere different liquor store on every block unhealthy fast food everywhere...
this is systematic and niggas fall for it....lil wayne was pushed into stardom when he sucks....but he sags his pants is tatted up and speaks fucked up and the powers that be made him the new hip hop God when his skills suck ass.
nigga ass women are fucked up too...and they are infecting good women with this nigga love bullshit....
you don't see this shit in white areas or even latino areas....
i'm from the hood and i expect better i demand better and will be better and have better....niggas get comfy in the hood....i moved from the ave 9 yrs ago and niggas i left are still there in the same spots doin the same shit old as fuck dressing the same way....talking the same way....
the problem with the black community is a lot of us get comfy and don't seek change and don't seek to be uncomfortable....but to be the best or better you have to be uncomfortable....look at relationships...why do people cheat? they got comfy with the sig other met someone else and got excited....
human's can't be comfy for too long b4 things start fucking up....
problem is niggas are always comfy and when change happens they attack....
I gave up on niggas a long time ago....i dont have the energy for people who don't want to be better and are happy being marketed too with negative bs rather than demand to be marketed too like everyone else....who r happy eating unhealthy bs bc its cheap rather than demand healthy food....
slavery is over stop accepting what society deems fit for you and take what is fit for you whether society agrees or not.
niggas will always have their hands out accepting/begging rather than hands out taking/stating.

Notice no one responded to this. You know why? Cause deep down these mafuckas peddling this bullshyt black nationalism (which is really a guise for their anti-white racism which is a part of their white obsession) & making excuses for black apathy know that there no refuting this point. The fact is all people who are successful have to conform to the business & corporate world.
They also know that a kid deciding to drop out HS has nothing to do with white folx. A kid (boy or girl) having a child before getting skills, having a career, getting married & thus not having enough money to support the child has nothing to do with white people. They know that these lil thugs who don't want to work for shyt, refuse education & become drug dealers & stick up men has nothing to do with white people. The REAL issues like illegitimacy, crime, & education, which are major issues in the black community in 2009, have nothing to do with white people. However, it's much easier to blame someone else for your condition (which is a form of inaction) versus accepting the responsibility for changing your condition (which means taking active role in changing shyt for the better).
All this "the white man" shyt is a bullshyt distraction. We have a fuckin black president & mafuckas still refuse to give up on this bullshyt excuse. I bet NONE of them would allow their own children to use that excuse if they were bringing home Ds & Es, dropping out of HS, having children out of wedlock, or running the streets commiting crimes. I challenge any of them that say this shyt constantly to tell us that it's an acceptable excuse for failure for their own kids.

No one responded to that shit because it was based on typical tired and regurgitated arguments about black people saying other black people are acting white.
Honestly, nobody in this thread thinks any of the shit sirwoods said in that post you quoted is acting white. That's the shit people say simply for the sake of argument, and it serves no real purpose.
It's what you choose to look at ...
There have been black men doing their thing (the "right" thing) for as long as I been alive. Obama may be the first black president, but not the first black man with 2 kids, a wife, and a job.
But, like I said, if you want to compare him to the dudes living off their moms / baby moms (like you put it), then that's like comparing apples to oranges.

In other words . . .
The more potential and success I see . . . the more I hate my own family.
Dude you have stood on the shoulders of these so called "niggas," your family, and now you want to denounce them once you have a little paper?
And that's if your message is sincere, e.i. you are a black man from a family full of "niggas."
Your mission, if you keep this frame of mind, is destined for failure.
"The more I see Obama . . . the more I hate niggas."

hmmmmm I guess yall think everybody is going to think and act on the same level,
dude that never happend in the history of the known world, why should it start now..
if you are not like that then you wouldnt attract those that are like that...
if you are around folks like that, then maybe you should change your feathers. if not why give a fuck??
I just dont see folks that fit that criteria, I know brothers of course that look and dress like that, but they dont have that mindset.
and that mindset knows NO color line, it exist in all cultures, races and creeds.

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:
Co-sign OP Thankfully we have Tiger, Oprah, MJ,Colin, Van Jones etc etc.
