"Black people use racism as an excuse for their failures in a lot of things. Racism makes us feel like victims and remember that victims never rise. The reason we don't succeed after every war is because of our inability to move forward....
- We don't forgive,
- we keep focusing on the enemy instead of picking up the pieces and building afresh.
I think the reason the Afrikaaner nation was able to build themselves into a formidable nation was to forget the past and found ways to empower themselves. The Afrikaaners were
- oppressed,
- confined to concentration camps by the English.
The Indians where brought here because the black man was too lazy to work in the sugar cane fields. They lived in desperate, poor conditions.....no lights, no running water, no proper housing.
Yet both nations rose and sent their kids to school.
- they were murdered in thousands,
- their women were raped and
- their babies starved to death in camps.
- But they rose, because they moved beyond the hatred of their enemies.
Instead of toyi-toying, they:
- built their own schools,
- taught and trained their kids to:
- work hard and farm the land.
- they taught their kids real values of respect (ubuntu).
The problem with us Black People, is that we see ourselves as victims. We feel sorry for ourselves and, therefore, feel that we deserve...
- Free things.
- Free houses,
- Free money. We don't teach our kids the value of hard work. Our greatest enemy as a black nation today is blaming everybody and hating ourselves.
We hate ourselves so much that:
- we destroy the things that belong to us.
- we destroy our schools,
- we destroy libraries
- we destroy hospitals that were all given to us by white money!
Check this out: 1. Of all the Black women raped yesterday, most of them were raped by Black men.
2 . Of all the Black people that were robbed yesterday, most of them were done by Black men.
3. Of all the Black owned houses that were broken into yesterday, most done by Black men.
4. Of all young Black men that were shot and killed or stabbed to death yesterday, most were killed by our Black men.
5. Of all the Black owned cars that were hijacked yesterday, most were carried out by Black men.
6. Of all the ATM cards that were swapped, mostly by Black men.
7. Of all the Black owned cars that were involved in smash and grabs yesterday, most involved Black men.
This is self hate and it is destroying us, Black people.
Let's face our real demons (US) as a Black nation and rise to the occasion.
We have destroyed the culture of learning within our communities and replaced it with entertainment.
RACISM IS NOT OUR DOWNFALL. BUT FAILURE TO FIND OURSELVES AND MOVE ON, MOST CERTAINLY IS!
We have over 20 years of freedom, WHAT HAVE WE DONE FOR OURSELVES?
- LET'S LEARN FROM OTHER NATIONS,
- LET'S LEARN FROM THE AFRIKAANER AND THE INDIANS AND GOD WILL HEAL US.

Read without emotions. What do we take from here?
Although the professor succinctly tried to intellectualize the problem, and point to sociological failures, the crux of the matter is really biological. By making it sound as if the problem is a recent one, with recent influences, the professor ignores the fact that native Africans built nothing more than essentially mud or thatched huts, and never advanced themselves over thousands of years. There are many such examinations of IQ: https://www.worlddata.info/iq-by-country.php
Recently I read a very interesting study of violent tendencies (and irrationality) by race, that found that the overweighting of violence in blacks was not due to testosterone, but an imbalance and/or overproduction of estrogen. Unfortunately, I did not save the link, and can't find it now. The study even went so far as to suggest that blacks represented a separate species.
As we all know, there is an effort to cover up this violence and give the perpetrators a "free pass." There can be only one conclusion to be drawn from this. https://www.tabletmag.com/sections/news/articles/mandelas-jewish-helpers
Native Americans also never progressed beyond subsistence.
No, but they had a highly structured and spiritual society, with means and protocol to punish bad behavior. Our treatment of them erased much of their sophistication.
That is true, unfortunately.
Their culture never asked them to. Where they did adopt western attitudes and behaviors, they often have indeed found success. See the Seminole tribe of Florida for such an example.
If you look at tribes like the Sioux or the Navajo, they never really sought to be more than a people who lived in harmony with the land on which they lived. The didn't value the things Europeans did, and thus, never chased them. I think in many cases there, there was an affirmative choice not to "progress," since it was seen as a violation of their values.
Cubicles. Epidemic levels of Obesity. Unelected mad scientists forcibly injecting the world. Yay Progress! Lol
Seriously though, I think we will find when Messiah Returns and humans finally live on earth the way we were designed to live, that it will resemble mud hut Africans or subsistence Native Americans more than we'd like to admit (i.e. simple natural agrarian societies not running by the dictates of Wall Street or slaves to the second hand on the clock).
The point is a society who progresses in wisdom and understanding looks different than one which progresses in knowledge and technology. Don't confuse the two or make hasty value judgments based on such narrow criteria as biology alone.
Depends on what you count as native americans. If you count only the indigenous peoples within what became the U.S., then the closest you come is the anasazi cliff-dwelling people.
if you include all of north and south america, however, you get the aztecs (admittedly not nice people), the inca, the olmecs, etc. who were somewhere around, if a bit behind technologically, the Roman empire.
While that might be the case, they can still learn from others (maybe).
This should be encouraged so that they are not so fucking destructive to all of society.
Makes A LOT of sense. Consider how emotional women are compared to men.
think Black Pidgeon Speaks had a video on some of the bloodiest leaders in history being women a few years back.
^ Adding to (re: estrogen levels):
I found an article discussing a study. The paper for the study is at a website that is down, so I can only go by the comments about the study.
It seems the study was done for the purpose of looking at racial differences for health reasons, not emotional outbursts, but still it backs up the general idea.
