So Black Culture Is A Problem? Reaction to Thomas Sowell On The Current Black Culture In America
YouTube ^ | Jan 21, 2021 | The Conversation

Posted on 03/25/2021 2:02:37 PM PDT by Robert DeLong

Found this guy speaking on his reaction to Thomas Sowell, after I heard his video on his reaction to Tom MacDonald's Fake Woke Rap Song. Which then peaked my interest to see what else he might have within his channel The Conversation

I found him to be quite interesting. So, I thought I would share with those who also might have interest.

Runtime for the video is: 16:31

Blacks don’t have culture in my opinion.

I hate that I feel guilty for saying I love it when intellectual blacks talk about common sense, but society has made it a capital offense to refer to blacks as anything but victims.

That said, this young man has a powerful message and is blown away by the wisdom of Thomas Sowell, something that everyone, regardless of race, should hear. If you look at the facts and the history surrounding our current situation, it’s evident that we, as white people, cannot make any sort of breakthrough socioculturally without a fair contingent of black men and women standing up for themselves and their future. Everything upon which the current racist tropes rely is firmly planted in victimhood. Blacks need to want to rise above that.

There’s no word, deed, or amount of money that can help them help themselves.

Blacks have different cultures, but the woke apologetic white liberals embrace and promote the wrong one. Not sure if you watched the video, but it is worth watching for sure.

Well don't, because there are many blacks that agree with you.

This black guy who I used to work with, who has sadly passed away, said to me once:

"I was talking to some of my black friends and they were complaining about white people who cross to the other side of the street when they see a group of young black men coming towards them. I told them, I can see their point, because quite frankly I am on edge when a group of young black males are coming towards me."

Now that quote is probably not verbatim, but it is in essence what he said.

“There is another class of coloured people who make a business of keeping the troubles, the wrongs, and the hardships of the Negro race before the public. Having learned that they are able to make a living out of their troubles, they have grown into the settled habit of advertising their wrongs — partly because they want sympathy and partly because it pays. Some of these people do not want the Negro to lose his grievances, because they do not want to lose their jobs.”

― Booker T. Washington

So basically nothing has changed since Booker T. Washington’s days, when it comes race hustler profiteers.

“Blacks don’t have culture in my opinion.”

Political hack and racist blacks say the same thing about whites.

It’s as stupid as when you say it.

There is nothing new under the sun.

Can someone define "Black Culture"?

Haven't seen any in my lifetime. I suppose Chicago could be a good example of Black Culture.

The real bottom line is that blacks are more prejudice against whites than whites against blacks.

Theirs (Blacks) comes with a "Hate".

I appreciate your honesty.

In my neighborhood, there is a black guy that walks through my street going from here to there.

He is trouble.

I remember being a teenager in 1984 and walking down the street toward the Post Office. Three Black yoots were approaching me, but I kept on the same side. We ended up violently shoulder-bumping as we passed each other, and they went on their way, yelling epithets back at me.

Nowadays, If I didn’t cross, I would probably be dead.

Lots of new things have come under the sun, since man started inhabiting the earth. Even in our times, new things have come under the sun, some good some bad. Think email, instant communications, vehicles that transport people anywhere on the globe. Vehicles that leave the globe which give us more insight into the space beyond the globe. Just to name a few.

I understand what you are saying, but that is a different topic altogether. Perhaps what you meant was that people don't really change much, but even that is not true. However some behaviors are unfortunately never completely lost regardless of the time that has elapsed, at least so far that is.

Most don't realize that race hustler profiteers existed back in the mid 1800s, unless they have studied written history or were provided oral history that was passed down from generation to generation.

BTW, there are white people who scare me and are trouble also. There are Asian who fill the same bill, as well as, any other race or creed that exists.
