African Americans know the answer to this question!!?

Question

Why is it that us black people kill one another and fight one another when we should be uniting as one and stop making the negative stereotypes people think of us true, Why do we do stupid stuff to one another and complain on how the white man is doing this and that when we are really killing each other and setting traps for our selves to get in trouble with the law, im not saying that everything we do is our faults but we can do something to stop our race from being judged the most, after all asians and europeans don't have the reputations we have!

You will have a long wait my friend. Laissez faire is the order of the day within the black community. Why do you think the black community is so poor and I don't just mean financially. It's everybody else fault but our own. Sometimes you wonder whether our survival as a race is a neccesity.

Answer 2

I hope you get a lot of good responses to this question because I'd like to understand it from the inside looking out rather than my viewpoint on the outside looking in.

I was in LA during the Rodney King riot wondering why community leaders said it was good for the community to burn down all their local businesses and destroy their infrastructure.

I hear people defending affirmative action when it does nothing but take away the self esteem of those it was created to help.

I see the Japanese Americans who lost everything in WWII educating their children with doctorate degrees and owning businesses while a lot of the black community hasn't overcome things that happened over 200 years ago.

I see low rent apartment buildings full of expensive, tricked out cars with multiple amplifiers for the stereos, driven by people who could have used that money to purchase a house for their family to live in.

I see a community that tries to pull down any successful member and label them a traitor when they should be recognized and celebrated.

Answer 3

Being in Vancouver Canada, there aren't alot of black people, but we have a huge Chinese population and Indo-Canadian also. There are gangs and troublemakers from these that are probably equivalent to your mostly black gangs in the U.S. I think every country has a problem with different groups/gangs which are not giving the community a positive outlook on these cultures unfortunately.

Answer 4

2 weeks and no answers. Now that's a shame. It's a very important conversation to be had and I would've liked to see something here. Had I seen it when it was first asked I would've put in the coversation-starter: >Perhaps some of it can be attributed to the fact that nearly 70% of black children are born to single mothers.
