Wow, that hurt. That's why we have so much catching up to do. I think those people who think that black people are to be blamed for their troubles should give this a read. Slavery was not the only thing bad that happened to us. We have been oppressed in many other ways. We're running a handicapped race. Guess who has the advantage?

The article does not give anything People fail to realize that these attitudes of selectiveness ,superiority expulsion, lynching and other behaviorisms are not synonymous with blacks .This needs clarification .It’s origins stem long before any blacks ever graced American soil ,The increase in this type of behavior became more pronounced in Colonial America where crackers and rednecks became undesirables...Plantation owners who had poor whites living within close proximity and on bordering land would offer to buy their land for more than it was worth in effort torrid the locality and themselves of such lower class people .Who were deemed uneducated and uncouth. They had reckless disregard for lives of they deem poorer. The aspect of lynching which is an initial characteristic of poor inferior whites. Contrary to widespread belief most victims in the antebellum south were white .Economic considerations prevented slave-owners from do so .Only after civil war blacks became the targets....... It is not exclusive to us and Blacks have been known to display this same superiority and expulsion complex among on another .Blacks that Were affluential, educated and more acculturated. They felt a need to separate themselves and formed a socially elite class .It was more than money but cleaner and safer neighbourhood.These blacks did not want “other “ blacks who were considered boisterous vulgar and uneducated among themselves ............
So ye we were marginalized and driven out etc but there is sooo much more to the story tan what is represented this article ........Residual animosity will always be there things like this will always occur. Black people have been more susceptible to this because of an ironic feature that has been deemed ideally synonymous with blacks as “ghetto” people ...This also occurs in the Caribbean where there are primarily black people who erect barriers it social, cultural, or financial to keep a certain type out ........It almost t the same ...I’m sick and tired of hearing we’ve been wronged driven out looked over ....We have to look at tit differently and make inroads and stop whining. This article does nothing and gives nothing but the obvious and conceitedly laps it up................................. ......... Something thay |
