We shuck, jive and kiss the butt of any big white corporation or university willing to give us a few dollars, and then wonder why our needs are continuously tossed to the back of the bus.
Well, so does everyone else. Everyone eventually sells out just to put food on the table. It's not just you. "Take this job and Shove It" is a white song, not a black one, although you are free to identify with it.
Those of us who come from educated families are often told that your job is to get a good education and make sure you are well-behaved so that a friendly white man will give you a job. Then, when the MBA, PhD, or MD finds himself in the unemployment line, he becomes so frustrated that he gives himself hypertension or ends up drinking his problems away after realizing the obvious: America doesn’t give a damn about you.
No, it doesn't care about you. And it doesn't care about me either. I have worked is some pretty soulless places. A few years ago a colleague died of cancer. People were sad for a few hours, but after that, it was shocking how quickly people seemed to forget he was ever there. When 5:00 comes, leave work, go back to your family, and be with someone that actually does care. Always prepare yourself for getting another job if you need it. Job security is a thing of the past.
Exactly. This is true for all people: White, Black, Asian, etc.
“The World doesn’t give a s—t about you.......So what?”
