[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]As a British Caribbean family we have an incredibly difficult time understanding African American culture. Our African and other Caribbean friends don't get it either. It is beyond hip hop, rap, crime rates, children out of wedlock, sports stars, impoliteness, but we do not understand any of it. Our public school experience has been fine, but the kids' friend base is international. [/quote] As a white Midwestern American person, may I recommend a visit to the museum on the Mall that opened last year? Another option is to talk to the many African-American people you surely encounter during your regular day.[/quote] No comment on how other communities and colonies overcame prior slavery in their regions. But, the joke in the non-AA black community is wondering for how many decades or centuries AA will continue on their path and attempt to blame others for their present behavior. Ask anyone at World Bank, ADB, IFC or IMF. [/quote] Forever. There are folks who want “reparations” for generations-ago slavery, I.e., another check from the government.[/quote] What's the endgame? Money? Be put in charge of all Gov't? Revenge? At some point you have to be a responsible productive citizen or spiral everything downward.[/quote]
