Major Myths That Destroy the Black Community

[jahbrudda]

The democrats are famous for offering government assistance programs in exchange for votes
They could care less about the poor, it's all for votes and power and it's keeping the poor, poor.


ATLANTA — A new, university study demonstrates that many of the government benefits the state offers actually discourage poor people from adopting more productive behaviors.

“At least in some earnings ranges, the tax-benefit system discourages low-income people from investing in education and training, discourages labor supply, encourages fertility, and provides little incentive to marry or to remain so. To the extent that households are aware of and respond to such incentives, the tax-benefit system creates poverty traps rather than promoting behaviors that enable families to escape poverty,” wrote the authors from Georgia State University. One is an economics professor and the others are students working at the university’s Fiscal Research Center in the Andrew Young School of Policy Studies.http://onlineathens.com/local-news/2013-03-13/study-welfare-programs-discourage-work-marriage

Do you realize most of your post deals with negative views of blacks

When you take them as a whole, the numbers ascribed to metrics of sociological difference between them and the rest of the nation, there isn't much good you can say about them.

Nearly every category you want to pick, from birth rate of young unwed mothers, high school graduation rate, average IQ, or numbers in incarceration, blacks represent a failed culture.

That doesn't mean they are bad people individually, but numbers don't lie.

Something is wrong. And it can't all be the fault of whitey

good job on trying to ascribe magical properties to melanin rather than SES, bignbushy.

what is it about melanin that causes this?

can you put down the subway sandwich for a second and explain that to us if you're not too busy with your relapse?

It isn't melanin, it's culture.

Small mind you got there to see only one possible reason.

ahhhh, the old "it's their culture, not their skin color" line of horse shit.

nice try, bignbushy.

now go make me a sandwich. no pickles, extra lettuce.

What is your theory for the shitty status of the black American?

Blaming it all on whitey?

Pretending it doesn't exist?

"It would be an understatement to say the black community is in shambles and needs to be repaired. At this point, it needs to be rebuilt on a solid foundation rooted in celebratory and functional morals and values. We need a regained sense of self-love, pride and worth. That starts, first, with addressing the consequential myths that have misshapen the “black mentality.”

It is time for much needed self-reflection. It is time to debunk these lies that are destroying our community"

Traditional family structure is unnecessary

Baby mamas and daddies living together or making cordial arrangements to share child custody are commendable but far from ideal. Marriages are where babies should be created, not bogus relationships. People who love each other get married. And, you shouldn’t have a child with someone you don’t love. Family structure with a Mommy and Daddy is very necessary and greatly impacts the outlook and future actions of the child.

Speaking proper English is “acting white.”

Why have we adopted broken English as our own? There is nothing to be admired about sounding ignorant. We live in America. So, speak English…properly. It is not cool when people can’t understand you. Plus, it projects the notion of stupidity. Stupid people have trouble being respected in the community

Reciting rap songs is more important than learning the ABCs

Black children struggle more than other races in school, mostly because they are ill-prepared. Parents (no matter how young) have to shift their focus to their children. When you have a child, it’s not about you anymore. It is about investing in their future. Part of that is education, like reciting the ABCs instead of Drake

Black women are mean and bitter

Black men placing negative labels on black women have been detrimental to gender relations. If black men don’t love and respect their women, who will? When black men start treating black women like queens, they will start catering to them like kings. The best way to cure a mean and bitter woman is to cure her with kindness

Black men ain’t ish.

All black men aren’t bad. Unfortunately, there are just more using their potential to land them in jail than the boardroom. We have to teach and show black boys they have promise beyond the bedroom, streets, entertainment and sports.


Slavery is the reason for our problems.

It’s time to stop blaming slavery and the white man. Yes, we were set up to fail, but we were also given a free will. Our destinies are determined by our actions, regardless of the obstacles placed in front of us. It’s 2010 and time to get over it.

I came across this article this morning and couldn't agree with it more.The only thing missing is the fact the democrat party should share in some blame for championing welfare programs targeted towards blacks.and the fact it has been keeping them down for generations.

tell that to trayvon.

lower SES caused by centuries of persecution and lack of equal access to opportunity that continues to this day.

i guess you blame it all on "culture", just the same way prominent racists red1966 and kynes do though.

you are transparent as fuck, bignbushy.

 

[schuylaar]

"Blacks comprise only 12 percent of the nation, but, according to the above figures, they comprise 37 percent of the welfare rolls. This should not be surprising; in 1994, blacks had a poverty rate of 33 percent." WOOPS

and jews only account for 15% of my city but because they are loud, annoying and think everyone owes them because they're jewish..it seems greater. WOOPS.

The same "problems" have afflicted all groups.

The Chinese were just as hated 100 years ago. They are successful today. Their culture promotes success.

Same with just about every other group.

But black culture is such that it is autorepressive.

so blacks are pulling themselves over at higher rates then?

blacks are giving themselves poorer outcomes in the justice system for the same offenses?

blacks are getting themselves busted for cannabis at 8 times the rate of whites despite the same rate of usage?

blacks kept themselves out of restaurants, denied themselves bank loans, and wrote housing laws to keep themselves out of the better parts of towns?

you're not even trying anymore, bignbushy. your shit is weak as you are closeted.

What percentage of black society has a criminal record?

I've seen no data on this. I'm going to guess one out of 20?

So what's holding the other 19 back?

let's start with the legacy of de facto segregation and actual segregation. or we can talk about the institutional racism that leads employers to reject the same resume with a black name on it at higher rates than the same resume with a white name on it.

i understand you are stupid, bignbushy. i am here to help fix that, or maybe just mock you. haven't decided yet.

You think employers wanted to hire Xuin Jun Kwan?

Fuck no.

They went out and hustled. Harder than I ever have, probably harder than any of us ever have.

First generation Asian immigrants busted their ass, named their kids James, and now they are rocking.

it really is no wonder you work at subway as a 30 year old, and even then it's only because your mommy and daddy bailed you out.

Thomas Sowell indicts liberals for the state of African Americans.

Here is a picture of Uncle Tom Sowell.

http://www.nationalreview.com/article/392842/legacy-liberalism-thomas-sowell

Nearly a hundred years of the supposed “legacy of slavery” found most black children being raised in two-parent families in 1960. But thirty years after the liberal welfare state found the great majority of black children being raised by a single parent.

 

[texasjack]

this thread presupposes most black people are fucked up. If you actually knew any black people you'd know that's not true. Most of us are doing just fine. We have more fuck ups than you but most of us are doing just fine thank you very much. Stop learning about black culture on TV.
