I'm not about to jump on the "YEA THE GOVERNMENT GIVE-US-US FREE" bandwagon. What the government did for blacks it did to promote itself and to promote Commerce. It called itself the champion of freedom so it could not in good faith continue to exclude black-Americans from the very same freedom it claimed to be fighting for. It would be hard for the US to talk about the atrocities of the rest of the world while at the same time not allowing proper health care its citizens. Yes, things have changed for blacks in this country but we can't pretend it was all done is our best interest and not the best interest of this country. And even now things are still not equal for the Negro in this country either in its laws, or its application, nor in its social presentation. No, I'm not anti-government nor do I believe the government have delivered us from evil.
They did a whole lot of killing in Victorian England....they didn't vote themselves into a better life.
It means change ain't coming in the forseeable future. The divide between the haves and have nots is getting too big but once gas starts costing 12 bucks a gallon I doubt people will stay complacent.
The divide among the have-nots is even wider. There is no unity in the have-not camp and they NEVER will be.
Just like slavery would never end. Just like women would never vote or own property. Just like there would never be a union. Just like segregation would never work. Just like there would never be a black president. There are always going to people who think never until happens but the truth is change is inevitable my friend.
There is always going to be people who can't accept the truth. Never in the history of labor have scabs stood shoulder to shoulder with the people they are brought in to replace. We don't even know how many scabs are in this Country.
This is true but before there was a black billionaire the idea of one was absolutely unthinkable and he was a billionaire in the 80s when that shit didn't come easy and he was completely self made. All I'm saying is just because it hasn't happened before doesn't mean it never will fam.
Karma I really hope you find some love or at the very least some pussy to make this year a better year for you fam because you come off straight bitter and lonely. Enjoy the New Year old timer.
What up, West Coast. This forum can stand only so much brilliance at any given time, so it's best we alternate.
No, quite the contrary, I come across as fucking brilliant, with an obviously superior (to you) knowledge of history and politics. On the other hand, if I wanna know the lyrics to a Dipset track, I know who to call. Happy New Year!
