There's a % of black people who don't actually WANT America to work for them, they want something else entirely. It's not limited to black people either, various groups of people want something entirely different than America and are actively trying to change it. Trouble is they don't know what they want.

America is the ONLY developed country with a 13% black population. If it doesn’t work for blacks here, it sure as hell isn’t going to work for blacks in Europe or East Asia that only have a 1-3% black population.

Also, the only country with the most black millionaires and billionaires: America

So yeah, America is as easy as it’s going to get for blacks. If you can’t make it work here, then just forget about it.

Let’s use Haiti for example. They threw out the French and the blacks have had their own way there for several hundred years. How did that turn out for them? They have been and continue to be the poorest country in the Western Hemisphere.

Ditto South Africa. Since blacks took over, the country has declined into violence, lawlessness, murder, mayhem, economic decline, reverse racism, brain drain, corruption and the blacks are worst off than ever.

Just keep blaming white people, that’s what independent countries in Africa and liberals do.

“But they divided our borders incorrectly.” Then why did you want independence if you were just going to blame them decades after they left?

That’s like a newly freed slave, spending their time complaining about that fact they were once a slave, than taking advantage of their new freedom.

Democrats are not going to save the black community, we must do it ourselves.

Some would say Haitians had to buy themselves from France.

If America keeps failing, and keeps moving further towards tribalization, I guarantee you this professor isn’t going to like what happens to him.

Instead of whining about the sins of the past, why not practice a message of hope for ALL people?

Oh yea, I forgot. All Lives Matter is racist.

Nope. Didn't work for Oprah Winfrey or Michael Jordan. America has been hell for them.

Pro basketball is 74% blacks making millions of dollars.

Pro football is 57% blacks making millions of dollars.

Life must be hell for these professional athletes.

And of course now has never been a better time to be a black actor in Hollywood making commercials, TV shows or movies. A living hell, I tell you. A living hell.

I won't even get into black musicians, rappers, etc.

Meanwhile black college enrollment has never been higher.

Just a failed experiment. They would all be so much better off in Sudan, Somalia, or Congo.

American blacks are the wealthiest blacks on the planet -- but I guess that's still a failure for them?
It's idiotic to compare whites to blacks, since we're culturally & cognitively different, and those factors can affect economic outcome. And whites had a couple hundred years head start, as far as literacy and generational wealth building.

They need to stop comparing themselves to whites, and instead compare themselves to their fellow blacks back in Africa or Haiti.
