    It's kinda sad to me even because I was think the other day how black people are so excluded from the outdoors and nature type ? and they have every much a right to this country as white folk who have free range over the outdoors. Nature helps people and it hurt my heart not everyone gets to experience it.


    Black ppl all over the south track game, hunt, fish and all that....and im speakin on personal fam and connects

    Jus cause u aint hear about it on ahh, or a rap record dont mean it dont exist among us

    Now speaking as someone who has left one nation to go to the next I can tell you that it's not for everybody it takes a certain bravery and smarts to do that ? . Some of you ? need to stay here all you are going to do is go to another country and ? it up.

    marcus garvey did not just advocate moving back to Africa that's a misconception and over simplification of his ideology, This goal was to create a racial empire on which the sun would never set, in other words build up Africa and keep an economic link between all the blacks in the world. AFRICAN AMERICANS would be central to the empowerment of the black race you are the biggest population of rich black people and you important culturally to the entire world, you have the most money and high levels of education and influence The problem is too many of you have ? up minds.

    Real ? . We're less than 3% over here and most them ? are broke as ?

    lol basically zombie saying black americans are dumb as ? . Garvey had the Black Star line, newspaper and businesses. He understood that you had to build from within. Create your own.

    This is what I posed to the OP, in short talk, to gauge him to think this out for himself. Yea, get up and move to another country but for what when we don't have a plan of action for economic and social structuring?

    So its just air talk. The better discussion would be how would we go about this. Anything else is like a ? talking in jail...its pipe dreams.

    Especially when a ? would say in another conversation, "you can take the ? out the hood but you can't take the hood out the ? ". So we already know the answers. We wasting time fantasizing.

    I just wanted to see how many ? would make excuses on why we shouldn't leave.
    Me, I'm making plans to get out.

    You build the plan around the action. If Black people in unison decided to dip, then we would compose the why, when, where, and how.

    But like I knew before I made the thread, ? will think of a thousand excuses not to do something, and really it all boils down to ? are afraid of being free.

    Some still have this mentality, living with this person will cause situations. Until we show them how they acting only can we work something out maybe.

    some blacks need to stay here but he brightest future for black people long term will be in Africa if you stay in America you will always be the under class.

    the racial/economic order in America goes something like this
    white/jewish
    Asian/east indian/arab
    black/Hispanic
    native American

    whites/jews have the largest numbers, the most money and political power.

    Asians and east Indians excel in education and their populations are growing so long term their powerbase will expand not to mention they seem to have certain industries and services on lock.

    The arabs and people of middle eastern decent face discrimination because of what goes on in the middle east but their community is more united than ours and they seem to have a better internal economy than black people. So they should also be slightly above us in the economic order.

    sooner or later a large section of the Hispanics will pull away from our black assess and we will drop further down in the pecking order. They will eventually become the majority of the nation and will have lots of say so.

    black people will continue to be being black people which means we will most likely keep dominating the entertainment culture. rappers singers basketball players will keep getting richer and richer but overall our community won't be in a good competitive position compared to the other racial groups.

    native americans for the most part will remain ? up in he game except those tribes that have casinos.


    all in all I think the future is looking pretty bad for black people

    But not to their own benefit, but rather for the whites that molded an empire exclusively for themselves. One that was specifically and systematically built to ensure all the people of color who helped build it and that would sustain it afterward, ad infinitum, would remain subjugated in one form or another. That's the reality I think a lot of people refuse to accept. They'll throw you a few more "rights," but then enact more laws with harsher punishments, all based around a constructed environment that pressures people into violating those laws. Whites saw the results of The Civil Rights Movement and started the Prison Industrial Complex. There will be no end to this ? .

    A wise person knows when to cut their losses. What good is carrying on a tradition of time, energy, and blood thrown down a never ending pit, just because someone else had to do it before you? Why not expend all that on something worthwhile? It would no doubt take an enormous amount of time, energy, leadership, sacrifice, and will, but it would at least be worth something in the end.

    And all that "blacks can't along," "black folks ? over petty ? ." First, that occurs in every race, color, nationality, etc. Its not exclusive to anyone so its irrelevant. Second, those are generally the actions of any people in or from harsher environments. Change the environment, you change the people living in it. It is in no way at all an innate feature.

    Would I accept them? Yes. I've seen videos and heard stories from people I know who have been down there. One guy calls it "paradise". To each their own.

    Some men retire in other countries because the US dollar could be worth more plus those younger women like older men.
