lol Name one.Thats some bullshit. The only thing holding Black people back is giving up because whites put plenty of obstacles in their way.They don't. They just have to get a decent education and work hard, just as white people who earn a decent living do, and many black people do just that.I think you keep missing the point. Blacks shouldnt have to work 10x harder than whites just to be on the same level.She is talking about things that happened 100 years ago, Tulsa and Rosewood, not about today. That's because she can't point to anything today that is preventing black people from improving their economic lot in America today except for ignorant, brain washed people like her to try to convince young black people that they can't do it. All that is needed for a black person to rise out of poverty is a decent education and a commitment to work hard.Because there are always exceptions to everything. But what we want are the same opportunites for everyone else, not just those of us who were fortunate.I know a lot of Black people who have worked hard and become successful. How did they do that being held down and oppressed with their skin color?![]()
Did you even listen to her explain how our econmics are managed and destroyed by a system of institutional racism?
They don't. All they have to do is get a decent education and work hard just as white people who earn a decent living have to do. All that is holding them back is the belief espoused in this video and championed by people like you that they are helpless. There is no institutionalized racism in America anymore and there is no white privilege anymore. All that is holding black people down today is this culture of "I can't" that you and the woman in this video are espousing.I think you keep missing the point.
