As Ta-Nehisi Coates has pointed out succinctly and repeatedly, there's nothing wrong with black people that the complete destruction of white supremacy would not fix.
- happyscrappy 11y agoThe victim cannot avoid being victimized if it is the basis of his identity. African blacks come to America and thrive. How is that possible with the your alleged white supremacy?
- mc32 11y agoI think possibly because without a protagonist-antagonist binary, you only have yourself. African blacks lack the legacy issues and come into a "clean" slate, i.e. that binary dynamic doesn't exist for them. It's certainly not a simple issue.
- ismail 11y agoDepends which parts of Africa they are from.
- tcbawo 11y agoI'm not an expert in this area, by any means. And I certainly can't speak for these people. But, I imagine on average that the people who choose/are able to immigrate here have an above average work ethic, skill set, or access to resources. There are probably many people who never have the chance to start a life here. Its not a direct comparison.
