The height of the black race was during slavery. It was the only time in recorded history when most American blacks worked. It is the pinnacle of the black race because they were actually contributing something to society.
What have they done with their freedom? They spit us in the eye by giving up their freedom to buy drugs or shoes. We died for their freedom so that they could break into our houses, steal, kill us and then get thrown in jail.
What have blacks done with their freedom? A whole lot of nothing. We are still giving them handouts. We have all of the responsibilites of a slave owner (feeding them, clothing them...ect) but none of the benefits like labor.
Whites are currently the slaves. We have to work overtime because the government takes so much of our money and gives it yp black people. I have a old pair of shoes but I have to pay for Tyrone to have Jordans. My taxes provide him with foodstamps. He sells the foodstamps and uses the money to buy better shoes than I have, plus drugs and such.
Thoughts?Statement implies that slavery isn't obviously the most efficient way for anyone to contribute to their society.
Where does he even get these quotes from?
It's an observation from very far away. It leaves out a lot of important details. It is not wrong per se, but it also doesn't help in the slightest.

Its less to do with ethnicity and more to do with generations of poverty, bad education, poor role models, short cuts to money (drugs etc), easy access to guns, the prison system and a culture that glorifies the accumulation of wealth, violence and disrespect. Poverty is the main thing that leads people into that type of lifestyle though I believe, when they see that culture all around themThere's been many similar social experiments, but in the 'Waiting for Superman' documentary they remove some young black males from the projects - where more fail high school than graduate - and put them instead in a completely different milieau on a special boarding school, all of them earning their college diplomas with honors.
This could happen to any race in similar circumstances, look at inner cities in places like Mexico. Easy access to things like guns, drugs, low prospects for young people and you get the same problems anywhere
