I don't disagree with what he said.

Also, that excerpt has that nigga life story sounding like a Donald Goines novel. He got every excuse in the book to have a ruined life, but he turned out alright.

Can't be mad.

these niggas don't get it.

like you said, he had every reason....but he used his gift to make something of himself. no he's not the average person as far as physical attributes, but take that away...then he wouldn't be playing ball.

now only if the people coming down on him can harness that same energy into there gift...then maybe they will see why he says this.

I'm ready to fight

so you're concluding every black person who has issues with what he said is unsuccessful?

smdh

I said put that energy into your gift.

unsuccessful is what you said.....why can't you look at it as not successful yet? that's why I said...put your energy to your gift.
 
Crab in the bucket mentality is real for all poor races in America.

And if crab in the bucket is synonymous with black ppl than white ppl are the fisherman that puts the crab back in the bucket once he gets out and tried to get the rest of us out I.E. Colin Kaep

The only thing preventing you from success is yourself.

you're black you have to try harder to succeed then oh fucking well, but if you just keep blaming another race even if the odds are stacked against you'll never make it.

It's ironic that yall are so quick to dismiss the opinion of a man who obviously worked his ass off his entire life to accomplish something many people dream of.

exactly...

this is why I said what I said about a successful American black man.

Lol. Shut down what? You still haven't responded to my last post. Just in here mad as hell. Saw you throw up the bat signal earlier for ya mans. Where those niggas at?
 
meh.. what is successful then? He catches footballs for a white owner. I've flown halfway across the country to meet clients for my own programming business. You'd think that in a league that's mostly black and almost 100 years old; that there would be a competeing league of mostly black owners that have become "successful" in the nfl and learned the business so they can do for their own. But that's just a thought. Maybe people would hate on a player that plays for a regional team and makes $75k a year. He's probably right on some level. We were suppose to support each other first. All those sit ins and pushes for integration were smoke screens. We held eachother back, instead of demanding to be served at white diners, we should have been making and supporting our own diners. That's why we ain't got nothing today. You can't have the pride of ownership if you don't own nothing. How many black people work for this Vanilla company that AHH forum is powered by? Plus, we don't dream big enough. At least one of us should have come along and said, " I want to make it to the league, then I want to own a league." In before a black person says that's a terrrible idea and points out all the problems with it.

what post? about me telling you about you?

foh

you came with that bullshit.

you just want to be put down to prove some dumb ass he think he better point.

I don't need help...I @'d them to show people are successful in their own Lane.

stop bruh...you like a fat chick wearing tights in a male locker room. just wanting attention.
 
European ideologies are at the root of our subconscious, but the point is to get rid of that and have respect for you, your family, your people and your ancestry to rise above the craziness. People don't point to the whole picture, but half or quarter of a picture.

???? yea you lost me there
 
The crab natural habitat is not a bucket. Then America is not our natural habitat but an artificial environment meant to capture us and detain us while we develop Stockholm Syndrome. Ecology and psychology is vital in understanding why black Americans aren't doing so hot in America and history as well.
 
Now niggas trying to diminish his success and talent.

How you gon say dude ain't successful because he's an athlete while at the same time caping for another athlete?

Kap is being "punished" by not being given a look but by y'all standards he should be ecstatic to be out of the league because at least he doesn't sit on the white man's bench anymore, right?

Niggas can't even be consistent. Dude said nothing but a nigga who sold dope wished he made a different decision, jails and prisons are full of niggas who see athletes, scholars, actors etc and wished that were them instead of being a nigga stuck in a cycle.

The aim shouldnt be to sweep the country from under cacs.. the aim should be thriving and not kicking the legs out from under the next man..Success aint money.. success is unity. providing and showing positive outcomes and when people turn their attention away form frivolous bullshit.. put egos/and pride on the back burner you get long lasting and infectious success

Most black people don't know how to do well and that is an issue. We are doing good, but as you said not good enough. We are still swimming in a artificial environment that was not made for us. Most people aren't going to rise as fast as others. It's a process and a very slow one. We are only 50 years removed from Jim Crow and 150 years removed from slavery and if you study history we are moving quite fast. Europe didn't rise until about a 1000 years after the fall of Rome start moving at a fast pace. In 200 or 300 year we'll be way ahead of the game.

so you said all that to agree with me....lol

but some want to do better and some don't....I think it leans too far in the wrong direction.

just my opinion
