don't feel bad.....the Cherokee and other fellow Indian tribes have been held back longer than your people have been here.
even recently we are still looked down on as the government breaks treaty no. 274 with us and takes away another few million from our medical and cultural centers.
just remember some famous words in all religions....." the meek shall inherit the earth ". our time will come one day brother, be patient. my people can hear the eagle screaming over the mountain...man will soon hear the scream too.

I am not prejudice ! want you to know that from the start !!! I think people ought to just look into the person not the color or race.....BUT.....I dont think blacks have it any worse than women. White people (and yes there are still some that are ignorant) but in general have come a long way on this issue. In alot of ways blacks hurt themselves by making their color an issue all the time and the young black males(in general) need to drop the attitude. A good % of blacks USE there past as a excuse not to work hard and try !!! There are no more slave owners left they are all dead now our generation though is still being blamed by most blacks. I feel the tables are turning and alot of blacks are being more prejudice than some whites now. Every body is prejudiced against now for some reason,To fat ,skinny, race, color,woman, man . It seems like in these days and times people hate tooooo much for any reason they can find. The key FOR EVERYONE is dedication,morals family and hard work,the opportunity is there you just have to have the WILL and determination to reach out and grab it.

It would be a big help to you to learn to express clear thoughts and learn to spell.
Opportunity is out there for those with the guts to run it down .
Boo-Hooing about your skin color will just cause people to look at you and think , " another self pitying GIVE ME " .
You have to earn everything you get in life .
A damned good place to start is school .
Your command of the written English language is poor , would an employer reading your Question be moved to hire you ?
For your smarts ?
Slavery ended a 140 years ago , it's no longer an excuse, get over it .
Nearly every people on earth was conquered and inslaved at some time in history, so it's not a new thing . It's an old bad thing ,it's time has passed .

Dear sir,
Look at immigrants coming into America every year pulling themselves up from below poverty to the upper middle class these people have a later start than blacks born here in this country (matter of fact for you to think about is that blacks in the USA have a higher standard of living than black people any where else in the world).
So to you thinking that since the evils of slavery ended couple centuries ago and that you have had equal civil rights for the last 30+ years that you don't have a fair shot that is preposterous.
please respond to why and how it is brand new immigrants with less in there pocket and knowledge of the country can pull them selves up but others cannot who have been here from birth.

How much is Oprah worth? How much did she start off with? How about that guy that started BET?
Plenty of people started with nothing and made it to Billionaire status in their own lifetime.
Break the mold. Get away from those that keep you down.
Work harder than your peers. You are wasting your time to look for the easy way for someone to give you something. No one owes you anything. As long as you keep spouting this crap, no one will want to help you get what you want. You want a job to climb as high as you want, I'd help you. If you want to find a way to get easy money, I'm busy.

Good point but I say black people are to blame too.
Just look at the Jews and the Cubans. They combine their wealth and bought our corporations. The corporations then turn around and hire Jews or Cubans.
People like Oprah, Jordan, and other wealthy blacks could combine their wealth and buy out large US corporations which will employ blacks as executives and employees. Instead, they waste it on personaly entertianment.
Just look at the millions M. Jackson wasted trying to impressed White folks.

That will help them to solve their own misery in planet of apes.
