[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous] White people: both the cause of, [b]and the solution to[/b], all black people problems. [/quote] In the meanwhile all other immigrants and poors are not waiting to be rescued by Whites. 30 more years and the Hispanics will not be the low performing or poor community. Unless, dole is contagious. [/quote] All other immigrants and poors come from different circumstances than black people here. Black people here are still treated poorly. Immigrants are seen as hard workers and blacks are seen as not. So not the truth when I think about my own co-workers. White people treat American born black people badly, and many immigrants have joined them: "we work hard, why can't they?". I'm poor and an immigrant, but nobody has ever question me like people here question black people. My English sucks and I had no work papers for the longest time. None of it mattered when it came to getting a job. My whiteness got me those jobs. I've been offered a job while walking in the mall, I've got rentals because I have credit (I didn't) and so on. I don't know how to tell you all that I literally have that something extra that makes my life super easy. I suspect black people don't have it and quite the opposite - they have that something that makes everybody question them, and I question them too. I'm aware of it, I'm working on it, but it will not leave me any time soon or never. "30 more years and the Hispanics will not be the low performing or poor community". Not the way they are now. They will be low class, middle class and UMC, just like any other group that has lived here for awhile. [/quote] So how do you explain African inmigrants? Black as can be yet Nigerians are snagging tons of Ivy League spots in recent years. Their blackness doesn’t hold them back despite being new to America yet AAs born here 100-150 years after slavery claim blackness and slavery as excuses?? GTFO[/quote] Many immigrants coming in from Africa are from wealthy families. [/quote] Most are from middle/UMC families in their own countries - not wealthy. Lets be real if you have TRUE wealth in the developing world, you don't come to America to start over. You could when you're in the "middle" in those countries -- "wealthy" enough that your family can provide you an education at a English speaking primary school and then college, but not so wealthy that they can just hand over a family business and property to you. In those kinds of developing world countries, it's the middle class that has a hard time -- they aren't "preferred" for jobs bc they aren't rich/powerful families, they have the education to get ahead but not the opportunities. That's when you immigrate to America to see if you can get ahead. Was the same for generations of Asians who came -- wealthy enough to be college grads, not powerful enough to get ahead in their own countries. These types of Africans aren't coming over here with family money -- they're usually coming with a few thousand dollars and a few suitcases of goods to get started.[/quote]
