Look at Chicago .

People should be more concerned about being killed versus someone using the term "woke" or being offended about a white person criticizing Beyoncé for giving money to Black Lives Matter.

Where is the public service announcement of people saying for blacks to stop killing each other?

Instead the focus is on " racist white men" .
This after 8 years of a black President..
That's a lie!! We all know who the biggest oppressor is in the history of the world but especially the last 400 years..

Stop trying to rewrite history..

Prove it.
Maybe not across the board...but walk into any government offices/ agency.

Been to the DMV lately?

The employees are at least 50%- 75% black and or females here in NC.

Definitely way over represented as far as % of the population.

It's a lie that blacks are mostly killed by other blacks ?

Again where are these white slave owners today ?
Why are modern whites being blamed for slavery ?

In the early days MTV used to show some pretty sexist videos, according to some people. Then you had Michael Jackson and Thriller which brought everyone together, who didn't think that video was cool... Then there was his song Black or White about racial harmony. Lots of different music and innovative videos. I cannot recall anything political from the station, some videos had messages but nothing hammering you over the head.


WTF happened now. Its a shame the channel turned into Teen Mom and Vote or Die and now this utter trash.

I'm not going to allow you to move the goal post now.. You said, "oppress" not murder...

Depends on your perspective, really. Lest we lose perspective and think history began in 1492.

The Ottomans were a colonizing power until the early 20th century. One of the largest and most sustained empires in history. They repeatedly invaded Africa and Europe for resources and slaves for CENTURIES.

The Arabs in general have been the scourge of east Africa, eastern Europe and Asia minor for the past 1400 years.



Sub-Saharan Africans get no bonus points for "not being oppressors"... when there was no capacity or technology to do so even if they wanted to. Which they sure as hell would have if they could have. Just like their Northern African cousins who ran a several hundreds years slave empire caliphate that ALSO raped southern Africa and southern Europe for slaves and resources.


Do they teach that stuff in Afrocentric history? Or is it all just the book of Enoch and co-opting the cultural heritage of other peoples to make up for a disinterest in the ACTUAL culture and contributions of Western and Sub-Saharan Africa?

Racism does not require discrimination to be racism.

And we know who the biggest bunch of "Thugs" are. Goes to show some folks just can't be turned loose and thinking for themselves. I think the Black Community should reign in their own "Thugs" and "Idiots" since it seems to be their own who are doing the most of the killing in the Country.

Liberals need to stop thinking every white person still owes others for what a bunch of dead people are guilty of. If you where a slave, stand up and be counted. If not, shut up and move along as a part of the solution, you have no dog in this fight. .

Us black folks don't even consider advice from your crowd. It doesn't make sense to do so.. And you don't have to believe me about who the oppressors have been. Hear it directly from a Native American..
