Black folks downgrade each other all the time and no one says anything about that. You should hear how bad some of these black folks around here downgrade Barak Obama, just because he is stepping out and doing what they didn't have the guts to do.
Agreed we say some horrible things about each other and will quickly dismiss it as a "black" thing.
I agree. It's shocking to hear Light skin blacks talk down to Dark skinned blacks. But actions speak louder than words. and the actions that our young people are commiting are truly horrific. We are destructing our own comunities, we got people selling drugs, and murdering each other for no reason other than money. It makes no sense to have so many black men in jail and so little in college. So Something more needs to be done.
We also need to be more aggressive in the way we educate and train our young people on how to conduct themselves.
Why are we dropping out of school so young?
Why do we want to be Sports stars and rappers and not Doctors and business men (and women)
Why are we so direspectful to our women?
Why are so many Black women getting aids and having babies that they cant support?
