@1nene88@zoomafrika1 Because the problems they claim are damaging to them rarely are actual factors. If I wanted a community to never succeed I would tell them they can’t because of someone else. It shreds accountability and motivation within communities
@1nene88@zoomafrika1 When you inherent a victim/oppressed mentality it is so hard to excel or even try to succeed because you’ve been told you can’t due to a slavery/jim crow/white man. Why would a child try if they are told they can’t because of someone else. More than often a self inflicted failure
@1nene88@zoomafrika1 Unfortunately they are the only people that can dig their community out via a shift in cultural thinking which is hard. I’m afraid they have delved so deep into this belief that any advice from someone of a different color is labeled racist. Therefore only them can fix it
@1nene88@zoomafrika1 Unfortunately it is hard for a lot of black Americans to live in the present and see the future which is sad. People are lustful to be labeled a victim to avoid self accountability and the only way to do that is to rake the past to present.
