His only idea for solutions is for black people to do what the dominant white society tells them, too. Don't wanna get shot and arrested (in that order), then don't act/look like a stereotype.

So we're suppose to take it serious that this niggas telling us blacks were doing just fine before girbauds were invented? This nigga telling us that E-40 single handling doomed all of black america In A Major Way? Wearing Enyce has now become a possibly fatal and life altering decision for black men in america. Use of slang and improper english, which whites themselves use, has ruined the lives of blacks everywhere.

That's right, ya'll. Saying "nah" or "dine" is going to forever ruin your career. And if they want to spew the n-word at you in the grocery line, like they do on twitter, youtube comments, and stormfront we should let them, because we're being hypocrites. That's what his solution is.

If that's the case, we wouldn've had the dogs and water hoses turned on us in the first place. Niggas dressed fly as fuck back in the day and spoke fine. Still got they asses beat. Still had to fight for civil rights. Still had to fight to vote. Still got assassinated. Still got hung. Still got burned. Still got arrested. All the while every context of the word nigger was flying free and recklessly for all white america to enjoy.

Even if we were to say that this dude is right, that faux is right. The fact remains that, we did all that shit before already. Yet this racist society still wasn't satisfied and did us worst.

What happened to my post? Anyway, I'm reposting:

People often only say something about IC members when it is negative, so let me say something positive for a change.

@Ioniz3dSPIRITZ is one of the most thoughtful, honest and courageous posters on here. I had seen signs of this when I was on the IC a few years ago, but the evidence is clearer now. The guy has the potential to be a real leader. (And I don't mean a leader on the IC. ha ha.) If he decides to go this route, I would just recommend that he read widely; there are few, if any, single books which contain the whole truth.

thanks bro.

We might not agree on all levels but anyone who genuinely wants better for his/her people gets my respect.

And you should want to do all that stuff for YOU not for you race or to make white folks happy.

Wear what you want to wear, talk how you want to talk and not give a fuck about outside society. These motherfuckers are going to do what they do . no amount of conformity is going to change them but if we turn to ourselves and take care of each other we won't have to give a shit about how they feel or what they think.

 

[damobb2deep]

It's part of the assimilation process. You're not an upstanding American citizen unless you do certain things.

being a upstanding "American" is although not impossible its highly improbable... the standards are so high that the only way to be one you have 2 have some type of mental problem...

and even tho they say " America is a places of second chances" once you in the system everybody knows that's not true..

There comes a point in time where you have to stop making excuses and achieve what you want to do in spite of the obstacles that are in your way. Almost all of the peoples who emigrated to "white america" faced challenges. The irish, italians, and asians. They all went through obstacles but still managed to gain a positive foothold in American society.

People who make excuses dont get shit done.

ok Irish and Italians are still white... in the 40's they could still drink from white water fountains... go in white bathrooms.. eat in the front on the diner ect...

Asians yes did have some hard ships when coming 2 America.. the thing about that is they mostly came over here with money already and the ones who didn't worked on the building the rail road although hard made them a ton of money ( race wise) so that's not even comparable...

 

[damobb2deep]

Thug culture has done serious damage to black people. And hip hop has done a great deal to promote it.

And it is pretty hard to disagree with the claim that the disintegration of the black family has contributed to racial disparities, including disparities in crime rates.

But I think young black men can wear sagging pants (I don't like this myself though) and use 'nigga' while being productive citizens.

you are jus regurgitating a dry ass argument that has no merit (1st 2 sentences)... name ONE race/ culture that does not promote "thug life" or likes music that promotes it..

People have been sagging for years but I never heard that story until recently. I understand that they want people to stop sagging but what's the point of making up shit?

 

[Ajackson17]

To make black men look like they are idiots and fools. I don't agree with sagging, but it's like any teenager style. It's rebellion from the norm. Let's look what the ancient greeks said about their children

"The children now love luxury; they have bad manners, contempt for

authority; they show disrespect for elders and love chatter in place

of exercise. Children are now tyrants, not the servants of their

households. They no longer rise when elders enter the room. They

contradict their parents, chatter before company, gobble up dainties

at the table, cross their legs, and tyrannize their teachers."

Nothing new under the sun.

lets not give this coon more attention

 

[manofmorehouse]

Ok, The irony of calling Lemon a coon is that the word originated from minstrel shows - where blacks routinely spoke ignorantly and dressed in a ridiculous manner, oblivious to how they were seen to other blacks and the outside world. But let's not include other races and stick to ourselves for a minute. The general feeling I get from some of the comments against Lemon is that people are comfortable with the state of black america. It's as if ya'll feel he lied about something. Is it because it was said on a national platform that makes him a "coon"? For those of you with children, im curious, what would you tell your kids that would differ from what Lemon said?? In another thread, there was this sentiment about there being negative stigmas attached to educated blacks in the hood. Is that not what's going on here? I'm not understanding the hate this guy is getting

I stopped here... go do some research and then try again...

You know what a menstrel show was right??? Actors that portrayed blacks that spoke and acted ignorant. Do you know the origin as well???

 

[manofmorehouse]

[Ajackson17]

Okay Mr. Correct Terminology. Let's just call him a House nigga, would that be preferred?

What makes him a house nigga? I'm assuming that is your child in that pic. Would you not say the same thing that he said in his segment to your child??

 

[powerman 5000]

Just the fact that he went to the outlets he choose to with this shit speaks volumes. It's like his agenda couldn't be more clear to blacks that can see the big picture.

Saying those things and putting it in public is a in house thing, not going on CNN and looking down on blacks who do this and saying this is tough love, where is the tough love for his pussy ass? I don't see nothing on his dainty self.

Those are things that are taught to our children, but not let them deny their own style of clothing and such. No one stops when white teens do the same.
