Negroes and Magic

The hard truth is Negroes are too magical. We cannot make progress, get on code nor create an agenda because we are simply too magical. Eighty plus percent of black people are Christian and that directly correlates to the lack of black progress in America. We can make the argument that our fixation with Jesus has and will continue to be the demise of black America. MLK Jr. was hit in the face with a brick for asking for equality and our solution was to pray harder. Black man is killed by the police on camera, cops are not charged and our solution is to pray harder. Ironically, white boy kills nine people in a church while they were praying and our solution was to pray harder. In fact, you can do pretty much anything you want to a black Christian without worry because they are just going to "let go and let God". A black person can find the ten dollars he left in his pants from the last time he hit the club and say thank you Jesus as if Jesus magically made that money appear in a time of need. It is this kind of logic that creates the environment of docility in black America... "God got us". We literally believe a sky man is going to wave a wand and fix the condition when he is ready. After all "he is an on-time God". A good question from anyone paying any attention is in a capitalistic society what even the need for prayer is. If you want police reform that is political. If you want equality that is financially withholding resources until change is made. If you want to find more money in your pants simply leave money in clothes you normally wear and forget about it. It's not magic it's not God its common sense. We could have changed our position long ago. The sooner we figure out it's not magic the sooner black lives will actually start to matter.
