But that is more psychological at this point than actual external barriers imposed by discriminatory laws or policies. It's more a personal journey that one needs to grapple with. I don't deny that still can be limiting. But that is a totally different battle.

Yea, the massive wealth disparity, mass incarceration and prison industrial complex, disproportionate police brutality cases are all psychological. There are no external barriers here. Well said.
 
I suggest you guys watch this when you have the the time. It’s 24 minutes. But it’s pure brilliance.

Wealth disparity can be due to a host of reasons that are not necessarily racial. Criminal justice reform is needed. No argument there. Disproportionate police brutality? No sure. You have some numbers on that? External barriers can include single parent homes, physical/sexual abuse, drug abuse, alcoholism, etc. But these are not necessarily systemic in the national sense. Maybe in the family sense. I don't want to discount these barriers.

That video was heart wrenching. Most all of us in agreement. Minneapolis Cop and those complicit are getting what they deserve.

Let's burn businesses (many minority owned) to the ground, let's kill cops (some black), defund and or abolish police, ransack and take over municipalities demanding free college among other non-sensical demands.

What am I missing?

That was actually a snippet from his debate with William F Buckley at Oxford. Actually an informative dialogue. Would recommend watching the whole thing.

There is a great book written on the Baldwin / Buckley debate.

The slick move now is the "All Lives Matter" rap. That's the way to appear color blind while being just the opposite. The filth is now subtle in their scumbaggery like their bloated tough talking silver spoon sissy Jim Jones leader when he was "asking questions" about the old dude the cops brain damaged.

1. All Lives Matter - Blue Lives Matter
2. I don’t see color.
3. But I can see Black on Black crime.

Pure filth. The fact that their trashy asses would follow a total POS like Da Donald speaks volumes. That loser draft dodging Confederate blood runs deep.

Go cry more about the mods. Speaking of board rules, choose 1 account, I’m eliminating your other one.

If you say the word 3 times does it become true?

Choose 1 account, I’m eliminating you’re other 1. If you don’t say anything, I will assume that this is the one you wish to keep.

Good questions. But she does realize some of those businesses were black owned, and had black employees, or serviced black neighborhoods with needed goods and services.

Those blacks were trying to do something to advance themselves and their hood. Now what?

I would like to ask her was her place of employment smashed up? Will it recover? Does she own a business that was burned down?
Does the shop where she buys her clothes, or personal products still around?

Man, I'm realizing people don't get it bro. Like when one of my clients said, "well, don't all lives matter?" I just said, of course, but your life has been mattering since the beginning, my peoples' lives have not, hence the protest. Smh. When you live in a bubble, haven't been exposed to much, or your views are curtailed by what you're surrounded by, it's hard to understand. I get it, which is why as I get older and have expanded my association, it makes sense. Doesn't make it right, but I get it.

Realist **** you ever wrote.
 
Dave Chapelle is a comedic genius. With that said don't see the intelligence in hanging on another mans words to justify myself. Actors, comedians, athletes would never dictate how i think
Seems ignorant to me to let another person dictate your think.

Wealth disparity between white Americans and the Black Americans is absolutely racial. There’s no way that one could start with the history of this country, where Black people were enslaved and see determine otherwise. I can recommend some books for you to read if you don’t understand this.

Black people are 3 times more likely to be killed by the police. 8 of the largest police departments kill Black people at a higher rate than the murder rate. What do single parent homes, alcohol abuse or what ever other straw man arguments you can come up with have to do with that?

Arguing with some of you is no reflection of reality. Keep to your keyboards. #irrelevant.
