oh and Jean Luk,
another flaw in your logic,
millions of white minorities came here to america to avoid discrimination and enslavement AND THEN GOT TREATED GOOD
(not initially of course) but eventually.
we are the only ones who got treated dirty in the country you guys ran to. so don't even try it.
give us reperations LIKE EVERYBODY ELSE GOT
and then we will stop "whinning"

its not a shot against you, its true. half of them don't even remember me. its like going back to your old highschool at 28. i was the man on my campus then, now the teachers aren't even the same.
acknowledging that there is a systematic inequality in a system which has greatly succeded in holding a people back isn't exactly "playing the victim" as much as it is pointing out a flaw.
No offence jonluke but it sounds like everything you know about black men you saw on an episode of the wire (you really think our only concerns are popping bottles and stomping on hoes? really bro)
you basically just called us all niggers (With the ER) and don't even realize it.
yes statistically speaking black women go to college at a much higher rate.
what you are conveniently leaving out is that this is because of two major factors.
factor 1 - most of those "college grads" are trade school/ certificate of completion type degrees. nothing wrong with them, but they are the type of degrees you see advertisments for at 2am to go be a medical assistant. not exactly moving and shaking the working world.
factor 2 - many african american males aren't even allowed to attend school or at least get the assistance to pay for it due to the fact that you are banned from financial aid with certain marks on your record. the system goes specifically after blacks and hispanics at a disproportional rate to whites and asians. they don't even allow you to get a degree for anything in prison anymore, a program that was proving succesful and dropped the numbers by almost 8% when it was cut (8% of an entire population is a staggering number)

It's very simple, don't get "certain marks" on your record..
You make something that's common sense into a racial issue. Show me proof that states the system goes specifically after blacks and hispanics.
You mean just like black people now? Are you saying black people aren't treated "good"? There's even affirmative action for Christ's sake..
There were complete wars fought in the US before slavery, but "ya'll" are the only ones who were treated dirty? please
You want reperations from the African slave lords that sold slaves to Europe, America and Arab countries?
Who else got their "reperations"?
uhhhh how bout the 100 to 1 drug laws that give you way more time for dealing crack (which was prevalent in poor neighborhoods populated by blacks and hispanics) than the much bigger problem of cocaine (used largely by whites in the 80s and considered a "rich mans high" at the time)
or the redlining of property that relegated blacks to only areas despite income and credit scores.
did it not just take almost 3 months to arrest a guy shooting an unnarmed black kid in broad daylight?
did it also not just take 3 minutes to arrest a black woman using a gun to defend herself from her abusive husband in the same state (i think she is doing 20 plus years now).
ummm idk if you've noticed this or not but affirmative action is a pracitce used when a system is so racially flawed that you have to put it in place to try and balance things out. but you arguing that racism never existed so why would we even have it?
EVERY (yes EVERY) war ever fought inside of the united states can fall under two categories.
category 1: whites killing indians for land.
category 2: whites killing other whites for land.
even the civil war had to do with slavery. what was your point again? oh yeah you didn't have one.
I don't live in Africa, Europe, or any of the Arab countries involved in the slave trades at the time my ancestors were brought here. I live in america.
America got plenty rich off my people (something you don't want to admit).
as for your other question, idk if you know this or not, but there is a little country called Israel that came to be based off of a post war treaty giving them land in the middle east. Many of the families who were robbed by the germans also had family treasures and money returned as well as being paid a cash settlement.
Reparations Agreement between Israel and West Germany - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
there were also reperations given from germany again after world war I in the treaty of versalies

one of which Germany just finished paying off in 2008.
Don't come in this house popping off with no smart ass comments with stupid ass questions and not have your facts straight.
I seen how you move on here for a minute and always wondered if you were white or not cause some of the stuff you said was always borderline.
You remind me of one of those engineer dudes back in the day that despised the rappers that would come in to the studios but had to work with them cause rap was hot. you laugh and are disgusted with a black point of view but you struggle to make money off of something (hip hop) which comes directly from black culture.
Its a new thing to try and "downplay" the signicance slavery and racism has on how america runs.
was it 200 years ago? yes
is it history and over and done with? not by a long shot. you still have rich families that can trace their wealth back to it.
don't be behind a computer popping off with all that "quit whinning blacky" talk neither.
as black people, we are our own enemy
Africans dont even wanna be associated with African Americans
That the system was (and sometimes still is) against minorities is no big surprise and noone is denying that. But again, that's NOT an American invention and doesn't apply to African Americans only.

They dont wanna be seen as African Americans at all.
is that a good thing or a bad thing?
WHY is that?
(in your opinion)
