It's simple stupid. All of humanity got a 250 year head start to accumulate wealth while blacks were in slavery and then had to experience Jim Crow, Segregation, and a lack of human rights. So actually the majority of blacks didn't have the opportunities to accumulate wealth until the 1970"s. Anyone who says anything different are either racist, Uncle Tom, or plain ignorant. The ignorant ones will bring up black athletes, entertainers, or other wealthy black people to prove how ignorant they are, but even if you include the wealth of these blacks. The average wealth is still behind other races. It has nothing to do with other races being smarter or superior. The fact is that those races should be ahead of blacks in wealth do to their over 250 year head start in getting wealth. Based on the average wealth of whites today it serves as an indication that they are not superior or smarter than blacks. Hell if this is all the wealth they could get with a 250 year head start on blacks then if we gave them a 50 year head start we would be ahead of them. LOL. Lets stop playing into this black wealth, white wealth game. Whites should have more wealth than blacks due to their 250 year advantage to get it. The reason why you dont see any racist whites or uncle tom blacks make this point is because the United States government would have to do something about it to make the playing field level.
White people didn't have any head start. How can that be when the light races came from and was civilized by the black race? When they've only been civilized for slightly over 2500 years, so what head start are you talking about?

A head start has nothing to do with anything when Oprah who happens to be alive in our time and only in her mid 50's amassed her wealth independently.

You're stating that they should be better endowed and you're stating your reasons why. Why are you doing that? Why look for excuses rather than for causes and solutions?

Slavery has nothing to do with the negative self defeating way most black people are, and that can be proven biologically.

As long blacks keep rejecting themselves for being black and continually compare themselves to whites by appearance, smarts, and wealth, they have no value in themselves which is where their beefs are coming from.
In some ways you have a point Ciss. Instead of supporting and learning from a Oparh or even President Obama there are few blacks that instead use that self defeating player hate-in ways and having alot of other blacks believeing that we are not going to amount to anything. But the fact still remains that whites had a hell of a head start. I do think that Obama being elected as President if but for a little while gave blacks hope to movin ahead as a people but it scared the hell out of some whites so now we have not just the racist element but the self-defeating and rejection of self we see act out by few blacks that you spoke of. There have been many things done lately to move us forward but if we keep believing in the white hype the bottom is where well be as a people. White folks carry to much guilt to allow power and wealth to get in too many black folks grip.
I'm sorry,

But blacks were here for millions of years before the lighter races.

So whites don't have any head start.

Stop looking for excuses man.

Excuses are nothing but weakness.

It's in the bible that the older race will serve the younger. So how does the younger race get a head start when they came last?

It was the black race who had the head start. Get real bro.
There is nothing weak about me baby and the history of blacks you speak of isn't taught in americans schools. I wish it was an excuses but the fact of the matter is we are rising from slavery.There was no well kept records of blacks back then and after there was no reason too keep us in slave I believe the plan for us was elimnation. Thank God that black folks are built to last. If white folks isn't holding us down then why is their so much guilt and hate towards us in this country even though we are still on the bottom?
Listen,

There always has and always will be well kept records of the past.

But it's time to grow up and realize that the states are not any source for any truth about life or the people in it.

Nobody is at the mercy of another for any truth when everybody has a brain and set of eyes of their own and can find the truth on their own.

Stop with the excuses man and move on.

Fuck the states!

Focus on yourself bro. Don't look anywhere for the light because you won't find it when the light is inside of you.

Truth always has and always will live in plain view.

We are not allowed to lie. By natural universal law we all have to tell the truth. Even when we're lying thru our teeth. No matter what, nature reveals the truth for us. We can only be deceived by ourselves.

We as humans must first be deceiving ourselves in order for another to deceive us. Truth lives in plain view. The past exactly as it happened is still present today. If you want to know the truth about the past, then open your eyes and get a load of what's going on all around you.

So it's as Shakespeare once said:

The fault lies not within our Stars but within ourselves.

Don't look at the states, look within yourself.

Because the states are not controlling the people. The people are controlling the states. The only problem is they don't wanna know that. They don't own the people. The people own them.

The sad thing is some of us already know this and those who don't know it either aren't going to read it or don't give a shit anyway.
In agree with all of that, and I would add one additional aspect. His last sentence doesn't take into account that it has been addressed by whites with affirmative action. They've even spoke to that issue by saying that they feel that affirmative action has served it's purpose, and is no longer needed.
I didn't take it in to account because the majority of blacks dont benefit from affirmative action. Only upple middle class blacks benefit from affirmative action. The only solution seems to be reparations.
Reparations will be the solution how?

They throw us a few bucks or even a million, and we blow it up on get high, strip clubs and other useless bullshit.

So what will be different after the reparation is spent?

And why should Africans not pay us reparations when it was Africans who sold us out?

Cissy,Did you make the PC or the operating system that you are using now to make your point to me? How about the female products that you use? Do you bring electric and gas or water into your home? If your answer is no then do anyone of color bring these products in to your home? If the answer is still no then my next question to you is why wealthy blacks don't buy software companys or big power companys or companys that supply us with everyday needs?
