Slavery had a thing to do with the current state of this community.
There is no people under the sun as disfuctional as this one’s.
There family unit is flat dead.
The system maybe working against them always
System is against them…kila kitu unaona ilipangwa na white pigs iwe hivo…nawaoneanga huruma sana. Wametoka far…probably one of your great great great grandma was taken there…count yourself lucky uko Africa
They cannot keep on blaming slavery and racism. Africans and other immigrants are doing much better despite other challenges.
Racism and bad treatment has really done a number on them. From flase accusations, to police killing several of them for no apparent reason. Kwanza nimeona several videos of white cops planting drugs on black innocent people and they get jailed. Unashindwa how the hell do you even sleep at night knowing that you sent an innocent person to jail but then the white cunts killed millions of native americans and black people without any remorse so sending some random black person to jail aint a big deal to them.
Mwafrika ndio adui.mkubwa sana wa mwafrika mwenzake tuwache kudanganyana.
All in all 70% of Black Americans live a better life than 90 % of Africans in Africa.
It’s all in feel-good perception that we feel we are doing better than African Americans.
They don’t sympathize with you either…:D:D:D
The federal government currently uses two statistical measures of poverty: the Official Poverty Measure (OPM) and the Supplemental Poverty Measure (SPM). In 2019, the OPM’s “poverty line”—the minimum amount of income a family unit must have to not be counted as poor—was $25,926 for a two-adult, two-child family unit.1 The SPM’s poverty line for the same family was $28,881 (assuming they rented and lived somewhere with average housing costs).2
According to the official poverty measure, over 11 million children — 16% of all kids nationwide — were living in poverty in 2020. This total has increased by more than one million children since 2019.
The data also reveal that poverty rates remain disproportionately high for children of color. Nationwide, Black (28%), American Indian (25%) and Latino (23%) kids are more likely to grow up poor when compared to their non-Hispanic white (10%) and Asian and Pacific Islander (9%) peers.
Not true.
The reason I don’t think ni system is because all these police shootings, I never hear an African name. Police can’t differentiate between a black American, and a black man born in America to African parents. Skin ni same accent ni same, yet I never hear an Otieno or a Kamau or a Olamide shot by police. It’s always a Floyd, Adams etc. In fact, you have a “Obama” going as far as president.
This means it’s other factors, I think ni culture yao. Ukiwa hapo in the trenches uko more susceptible kuwa exposed to violence and drugs. Sa ubaya ni the black men who go to school, talk in a professional accent wanaitwa “whitewashed”. There needs to be a huge culture overhaul.
