Black People Don't Own Sh*t!!

[DMorgan]

and this is my problem.

how can i be ok seeing all these people getting money while only a few of us are crawling up at a time?
and with that money they are creating communities within a community.
and once the community is there......they demand to be respected by the others.

i am watching it happen all over.
all i hear is who dont want to be a entrepreneur but complain niggas getting kicked out of gucci. kicked out of starbucks...cold fried at burgerking.

as if we are not smart enough to be able to do these things...
oh but we need money......yes we do.....but what are we doing to get that money?
soooo no one knows a dopeboy looking to clean money?
no one knows anyone who you can pay to piggyback off their credit to make your credit better to be able to get a business loan?

we are not stupid......we are not lazy.....but for some reason....we act like we are.

the question is what are we afraid of?
did the white man do that much damage that niggas are afraid to succeed because they think they will be a target like famous rich black people?
are niggas afraid to build a community because of what happened with black wall street?

if this is a legit fear people have....im cool with that.
but dont act tough in the hood with other black people.
thats all i ask.

shit this type of thread always gives me a flashback to a situation that made me about to beat a niggas ass in a mentoring class.
lol
i aint shit

Actually a lot people don't know that type of person. For one most people hustling ain't making no real money. They just surviving. Also the business minded person who from the same place as the dopeboy ain't friends and might not even know each regardless of being from the same neighborhood. Most times the business minded book educated kid was told the dopeboy ain't shit, not a good person and to avoid them. Even if the dopeboy did have enough money to be cleaned who's to say that he is that far along in his personal growth to want to go that route. Many factors go into that shit.

Hell yes the majority of black people have a grave fear of white people and that is the biggest reason we are still in last place in this country.

Show me what revolution wasn't bloody and having bodies dropped on both sides.

Show me how it benefits us as a people to try and continue to immerse ourselves in a sick society.

Look at the shit posted here. A lot posters here are riding Nipsey Hussle dick in his death. The video recently posted about him checking those popparrazi people and how he told them shit is about respect with him and he willing to go to prison about that.

Folks post on here everyday talking about how they will tolerate disrespect cause instead of addressing the disrespect their first thought is to not go to jail. I'm not saying that as if its ok and just an easy thing to go to jail. At the same time if you not willing to put shit on the line for your own respect and place in this world you damn for sure not about to be willing to put it on the line for your people.

try to follow this.

black people owning their own businesses allow for us to not rely on the oppressor.
our money should stay within the community. our money moving inside our community will allow us to build it up and expand into other businesses as the demand comes for new shit. we can have control over our own schooling and the curriculum. we can have our own policing and lawmakers for our community. Our own banks to get our own loans from.....no more predatory shit.

we can actually control who does what inside of it to and large extent.

once all that and other things are out of an oppressors hands.......what can they do?
we control our own shit.
no gentrification...no being treated like shit in your community. our own shit based on what we like and not what we are told we are supposed to like.

In what country in what land? Land we buy from them in a country that are majority in. Chinese got a bunch of shit here but they have a place of origin. I’m not saying if we get on they gonna Black Wall Street us and burn it down. I’m saying are we gonna have a nation or just a big black belt with a benevolent upper class

this is a super simplistic way of looking at life, so by your definition, i should be starting my own website instead of helping goldie build this one then right?

so does that make me a follower for helping him? or standby b/c im not starting my own??

my thing is, im going to use my current job to fund my side shit. I'm gonna use the health and dental i get for pennies on the dollar through my job compared to what i would pay for that if i went into business for myself.

i'm going to use my consistent biweekly paychecks instead of relying on income that could change as often as the weather

in other words, you have to start from somewhere. If there ever comes a time where i could focus 100% on my side gig, i MIGHT cross that bridge when i get there.

you are in a support role.
the fact you have ideas ...takes you out of the follower status in my eyes. followers are told what to do.
supporting a black business. but why are you only limited to starting another website? so you aint good a nothing else? why create competition for goldie when you can have your own lane?

and waiting to start your own thing for what?

why cant you start off slow and low and build on it every week?

i get the whole health care thing.
but just because you are working for someone doesnt mean put your own shit on hold.
and depending on what business you start...you can do it after work or on the weekends.

it is that simple.
i think too many people have a complicated look at things.
not too many stupid people on here that cant multitask.
and instead of waiting to cross the bridge when you come too it.....how about build your own bridge brick by brick until you have a bridge for when you need it vs when you come to it...then build it.

you may have to work your ass off for years before it comes to a point where you can say fuck everyone and everything...you got your own...

but the question now is....are you worth doing something for you?

In essence I think this whole brand of capitalism altogether. But I’m not gonna shot on people living in it. It has its benefits and drawback and I ain’t lived under any other economic system. But this system ain’t fostering unity as we can see by this thread. I rather we not even have to wake up and worry about capital I rather not worry if med bills and insurance will cause me to go broke or if paying somebody 15 an hour is going to ruin a small business. Niggas in Canada ain’t worried bout health care moms in Norway ain’t worried about going back to work after 8 weeks with a newborn. Daycare being high as fuck.

And I get it maybe if we all worked together and made community more functional we could alleviate a lot of these issues.

I want my government ideally to do what they tax me for and more. No that ain’t simple or easy and maybe the US is too big for a wide social net. But when we view a wide social net as a way to be lazy we just gonna keep doing the same shit leaving somebody exploited. I feel we measure ourselves by the standards of outsiders when we could easily make our own.

so you relying on the govt to help us?
the same govt that tested diseases on us.....the same one that allowed stolen land and didnt enforce broken treaties?

that one?

daycare high as fuck why?'
black people cant start our own healthcare system? not easy and will take work...but what doesnt.
do you need to hire someone to work your business? cant hire an intern to gain experience while you pay them minimal?

yes, its a system in place.......learn the system to use the system.

we gotta get out of the mindframe.....that we cant do shit and wait for the right time.
the right time wont ever come....attack while you are young and able.....so when you old......you can be sitting on the beach looking at young girls talking about what you would do to them if ya dick still worked.

I’m not saying if we get on they gonna Black Wall Street us and burn it down. I’m saying are we gonna have a nation or just a big black belt with a benevolent upper class

and how do you suggest we get there?

Not relying on this government that’s my point. I do not agree with this system. But you seeing inside I’m seeing outside. Who said wait?

i hear you...

i hate that nipsey dick riding aswell.

all i hear is how HE was going to put the hood on. all about what HE was going to do to help others.
then niggas fall into the "damn, what if he succeeded?" mindframe.

like fr?

why was it only on him?
like i said in that thread....all them dudes and all them people......what if only a fraction of a fraction thought like him?
aint like what he was saying and doing was hidden...he spoke about but for some reason it wasnt heard until after his death?

i think some people just like chaos and others propped him up so high as to never being able to be accountable for their actions because the man was a saint and they cant match that.
it was said no disrepsect would be tolerated until a white hispanic chick spray painted on his mural and where did all the dudes go that could continue or use his ideas to take back to their hoods?

but thats something else entirely.

and not relying on the govt.......how?

we need our own.

A lot of generalizations going on in here. But I will say, a lot of times when you see a successful black business come up, you see the owner pose for all the articles, do all the interviews & bask in the limelight of having a black owned business. After all that press they get even more business and make even more money, then promptly sell the business to a white person. I never understand it. The only thing I understand less, is when a wealthy person of color starts some business and people screaming how we need to support them. People ready to give someone with money, more money just cause, but wont help someone struggling to start something.

People want to be or have their names attached to success not something that is struggling or hasn't popped off yet. Its the same reason these award shows gives these celebrities free gift bags with merchandise worth thousands of dollars. They want the celebrities to talk about all the shit they got in the bag so all of their fans will run out and pay top dollar for that shit.

Majority of people don't invest in a person or business out of the goodness of their heart. They believe they will see a return on their investment.

What a lot of people are failing to understand because so many people are caught up on money and only money is this. A lot people can love a business idea presented to them but along with selling the potential investor on the business they need to sell themselves as well. You have to make the investor believe you can make that business pop and they should believe in you as person.

Personally myself I invest my time and sometimes my money into good people. I can replace some material shit easy what I can't replace easily is a good person.

A lazy person can have a great business idea but them being lazy the shit more than likely not going to pop.

A smart and hardworker can have a business idea that is not as good but because of their work ethic and smarts will have a better chance at getting their shit to pop.

Yet you always give me shit.

Fuck alladat iron sharpens iron shit.
Post ya address.

Man
..I think a lot of y'all on here just don't believe in yourself as much as you think. Shit, me...I think I believe in myself too much...and it can slow me down.

I think given the chance alit if yall can be very successful business wise and a few can even dwarf all I've done. But you'll never know if all you can see is other peoples failures as your own. Why not attach yourself to a successful person?
Is that an option?

I give you shit sometimes for how you present what you say. Not because I totally disagree with what you are saying.

Like I said before. Your message can be great and 100% truth but if how you presenting it causes 95% of the intended audience to not receive the message. Then the shit doesn't serve its purpose.

We not built for no revolution, harsh truth. Shit would get smashed in a day. Best just get money best way possible and work on family unit and immediate community and work from there.

I'm real biz minded myself though, I'm like an octopus. Black people can't work together and always gotta compete is big issue.
