Owned by whom --> Democrats??? Have they sold themselves to the Democrats in exchange for 50+ years of welfare, social programs, affirmative action? Is that what they think.
To all Blacks who think they're * owned * You're NOT. Even if Black leadership aka ministers have told you you're owned.
Asians have made it in this country because they worked hard. Hispanics from Mexico, Central, and South America are in the process of making it because many are working 2 or 3 jobs.
Blacks need to cut loose that * can't do * attitude and prejudice against those who make through hard work or you'll forever be left out of the main stream. No one is holding you down. You're holding yourselves down.
Disclaimer... that goes out to the people with attitudes. I recognize and admire the many, many Blacks who worked hard and made it...
