Paris

"So we've got the blacks who are supportive of everything non-black, then we've got the blacks who are angry with the other blacks for showing support to other issues, and lastly we have the buffer negroes trying to apologize for both sides... We are all lost".

Blacks changing their profile pics for the Paris attacks remind me of the ALS ice bucket challenge. Negroes were pouring water on their heads to bring awareness to a disease that does not really affect them. 93% affected are Caucasian. Truth is we have a history of sticking up for everyone else's issues but ours. What is worse is we have a history of sticking up for people who hate us. France until this day still forces Africa to pay colonial taxes for their freedom. Never mind the fact that most black people couldn't point to Paris on a map nor do they know the history between France and their ancestors the root is the slave energy that we still have in us. Slavery taught us that we are not human and therefore our issues were of no concern. We have spent centuries catering to the needs of others and in turn lost concern for our own. Cops are shooting us in the street, brutalizing our women, creating new laws to raise incarceration rates, denying us access to housing, denying us business loans, miseducation of our children etc. etc. etc... Black people did not even care enough to start our own movement #blacklivesmatter. Our community is on the decline not because we do not have the money (trillion dollar annual spending power), or the resources with African land being the richest in natural resources in the world (too soon to talk about nationalism though I get it), or the access (black president, information age). All excuses are lame now.

I often hear the older generation say there is a time and a place for everything. Well now is neither the time nor the place to be trumpeting sympathy for others when our race is in rapid decline. In addition, for Paris I'm not sure that time would be ever just as I am sure Jews would never come to the defense of Nazis. Let's fix our shit first. When we are good I'd be happy to bandwagon any other issue that needs to be addressed.
