@butchmizu Why nobody call liberals what they are? White supremacist
They're trying to get black women on board with their lifestyle and if rejected, they hurl made up words like "Biphobia" and racist insults. That's white language/rules that black people don't have to adhere by.
Martin Luther King Jr. explained why comparing Black Americans to other immigrant groups misses a crucial part of history.
When asked why Jews, Irish, and Italians had managed to escape poverty while many Black Americans remained trapped by it, King said the comparison overlooked two fundamental differences.
The first was slavery.
As he put it:
"No other racial group has been enslaved on American soil."
Unlike other immigrant communities, Black Americans endured centuries of slavery followed by legalized segregation, creating barriers that had no true parallel.
The second difference was race itself.
King argued that while many immigrant groups could eventually assimilate into the broader society, Black Americans could not because their skin color remained a visible target for discrimination.
As he explained:
"While other racial groups have been able to change their accents or names to assimilate, the Negro cannot."
For King, that was why the comparison failed. History was different, and so were the obstacles that followed from it.

@StillTruckerWaf White neighborhoods never safe, even in the suburbs. I'm not african but africa was more developed than Europe before european appropriation and colonization. You would have nothing without the black man. We have 50,000 plus patents under oppression.
