My Question is 'why are black people being constantly put down?' When infact we are doing well for ourselves
As a black person i'm sick of hearing comments such as 'black people are lazy' and 'black on black violence' and 'why do black girls hate' and all the other ignorant things people who obviously have self issues have to say about black people.
Infact i feel it neccarasary to educate those people who use the above comments to relate to black people.
black on black violence
Yes there is black on black violence but are we forgetting white on white violence too, every race or culture enflicts violence on their own, but whenever its black people the media seems to highlight the fact.
black people are lazy
yes some of us are lazy so are some white people and chinese and indian its stupid to say all black people are lazy, infact black people are doing well for themselves people seem to be forgetting people such as halle berry, beyonce, trevor nelson, trevor mcdonald, ian wright , and loads of other black people who have made things of themselves. Our youths are even trying to pursue their dreams with people such as dizee rascal, so solid crew ect;
Black girls hate or are always screwing
Its in a persons nature to be envious and to want what others have, but to single out black girls and put them into this catergory of jealousy is pathetic. I know white girls that hate, mixed race, and other raaces but yet again the black person is being singled out.
I wonder, are black people that interesting that people are constantly looking at the stone in our eyes and not worrying about the one in their own.

I agree with you on most of your points but the fact is, they are always gonna be finding ways of labelling black people but we can stop that by NOT living up to the stereotypes. As many people do.
When you talk about black people are lazy, you've listed just entertainers and sportsmen. Which black people have a reputation for anyway. As I said on a different thread, we need to see more black businessmen, making money LEGITIMATELY and more professionals giving the impression. They wouldn't talk about black people being rubbish at sports because they know we aren't and its prominent.
What we need to see MORE black people off the TV and in white dominated places such as big business and the sort making things and raising families.
That's where Asians are starting to get ahead and even they are beginning to trample on us...

black on black violence
that phrase seems to imply that black people should get back to mugging white people. ; )
that is the only phrase i wanted to comment on, i havent heard the rest.
you have to take everything from the media with a pinch of salt, dont listen to anything from tv unless you are intelligent enough to work out that there is an angle being pushed otherwise you will be doomed to follow the path that have made you.

*First post*
I am truly sorry to say that we as a people are being put down because we as a people continue to allow it, and, in fact we foster it.
As was stated before, we are viewed as lazy because the most prominent black people are either entertainers or rappers. We allow the image of our people to become that of "gangsters" and hoods, or people that can only run, catch, dance, sing, or perform.
It has also been stated that we don't have many prominent business-people to call our own as well. That is partly because we do not equip ourselves with the knowledge of investing and personal finance. Most black people don't have any savings at all, and many do not know how to live within their means.
(I grew up poor, so before anyone accuses me of not knowing what it's like to be hungry, just don't. My mother once didn't eat for three days just so my brothers and I could have enough food to last until she got paid.) People suffer all the time, suffering doesn't make you black. It makes you human.
The greatest tragedy though, is with society as a whole. We are steadily moving to a place in which people are told that they don't have to answer for their actions, and any bad thing that comes back on them is somebody else's fault entirely.
People do not teach their children that bad things are going to come about no matter what, and that it does not excuse them from being responsible to themselves and their community.
In the United States, we allow ourselves to be told what to think, and how to act. How many times have you heard of someone being accused of "acting white" because they don't want to perpetuate stereotypes?
How can you ever change laws that keep people chained down because they've made a mistake in their life if no one takes us seriously enough as a people to vote for one of us?
If I said the term "black person" to you, would you think of a rapper, or an athlete?
If I said the term "business person" to you, what color suit would the white man who's image you just conjured up mentally be wearing? Subconsciously we place ourselves in the yoke of these roles.
Do you know any black people who listen to jazz, ska, gospel, or blues? I bet you can't throw a rock in any direction and not hit a person who listens to rap. (For the record, I have no problems with black people expressing themselves through rap. I just don't like being labeled as a person who believes in the misogynistic, sophomoric, meaningless drivel that permeates the mainstream.)
Who owns these record companies? Who owns media outlets? Who pays those NBA players all that money so that they can buy an Escalade with ridiculously large tires? It's not black people. All the extra money we have is spent following the next trend or upholding this "image."
The image is created by the very people you oppose, and you clamor for more belugas you believe that it is what defines you. How many children today can tell you what's going on in Africa right now, let alone in the past. How about in theirs own community? Now how many know the words to a song about slapping b****** and "ridin' on dubs?" Do they know basic algebra/geometry, or do they know how much the ring Kobe brought for his wife cost?
Do you think rappers/actors/athletes pay for theirs cars, clothes, and jewelry? Sometimes yes, but company can make much more money giving it to them for free so that you shovel over your livelihood for the newest trinket or a TV in the back of your headrest belugas you want to emulate them.
The writing is on the walls people. Tell your children. Tell the people you know black, white, or whatever. Let them know that black people aren't any less people, and much more importantly, show them. You need to be there as a fountain of life-giving information for as many of our people as you can. Ignorance is no longer an excuse. We already know what ignorance gets us.
If you say you want change, you have to start from yourself and work outward instead of looking for some magic bullet that will fix it all in a flash. The rusty cage is already open, you just have to take wing and head for the sky.

black people can be said to be lazy, but lazy doesnt mean you dont work. doing 4 jobs and just being able to afford a living..doesnt mean ur a hard worker, cos there are those who have one job and live far better. why is that?
the sitation was raised earlier, when i asked why there are no major black restaurants, in black areas..90% of the the business are run by asians..and whites..why is this? being lazy can mean, not properly arming yourself with knowledge and education (which doesnt have to be in the 4 walls of a classroom)
to secure a better future, of course this is a sweeping statement, but it is a statement that speaks for itself.... are things getting BETTER or worse? thats the £1m question..in many ways its getting better, while in many ways its getting worse. gun violence amongst youth 20yrs ago?? virtually unheard of. theres a serious identity crisis which in my view is getting worse.
so dont get upset when you're told that a disproportionate amount of blk arent doing well enough for themselves..and u cant blame everything on racisim or the state.

cos there are those who have one job and live far better... why is that?
I would have thought that those who are doing 4 jobs have and are still trying to apply for one job, but the institution and the system doesn't make it easier or better for them be able to stick to one job to better maintain themselve or even their family.... Funny enough this same institution is run by white people. ....
the sitation was raised earlier, when i asked why there are no major black restaurants... I don't know what area you are talking about, but in my area there quite a handful of African resturants, own by yours truly black ppl... as well as other ethnic resturant chinesee, indianan, etc..
in black areas..90% of the the business are run by asians..and whites..why is this? being lazy can mean, not properly arming yourself with knowledge and education (which doesnt have to be in the 4 walls of a classroom)
to secure a better future, of course this is a sweeping statement, but it is a statement that speaks for itself.... are things getting BETTER or worse? thats the £1m question..in many ways its getting better, while in many ways its getting worse. gun violence amongst youth 20yrs ago?? virtually unheard of. theres a serious identity crisis which in my view is getting worse. ......are you referring to black youths?????
so dont get upset when you're told that a disproportionate amount of blk arent doing well enough for themselves..and u cant blame everything on racisim or the state.
I believe that you are an idiot......... why don't u read the post and the thread itself..... and then post something more intelligent?.... I will wait for ur intelligent post.... and this time around don't forget to read properly and understand what the author is saying.
BTW Aint you this same curious idiot that wanted to know why black ppl size each other up..
So I guess the author last line applied to you then.... just in case u miss... here it is again.
I wonder, are black people that interesting that people are constantly looking at the stone in our eyes and not worrying about the one in their own.

Probably because 'they' are afraid of what we can do when we realise our own strength...Whenever black people put their mind & effort into something, we always succeed. We're already major players in the music industry ( or rap industry at least), sporting industry(football, basketball, athletics, tennis), comedies....basically, the whole entertainment industry
The white professionals at the top of the 'social ladder' have realised this and don't want us to take over any industries that may affect the running of the country (finance, politics), thus in order for them to keep their jobs at the top and their position on the wealth ladder they believe that they must keep putting us down so that we think we have more problems that we actually do.
Gving some of us this mindset of "We're not good enough yet" or "What's wrong with us?" Just like Marshall Mather's mother made him believe that he was ill when he wasn't.
Since we are in a foreign land, it is easier for them to convince us that we are in such a bad state. (If a white man went to any country in Africa and said "You people are laz y" do you think anyone would give a damn!?) Furthermore, if we went back to our country of origin, would we be getting such remarks thrown at us?
Because we see white men with the majority of businessess, the majority of riches and the majority of admiration (in this country anyway), anything he says, we take heed because we wanna be in his position (businesses, riches and admiration wise).
I wonder, are black people that interesting that people are constantly looking at the stone in our eyes and not worrying about the one in their own.
Yes, too bad they can't see the stone in their own eyes, probably because their heads are too big.

hunger for knowledge..well its obvious that you are on a hunger strike for knowledge... black people are major players in entertainment? thats just one side of the story. and please please please.....its so pitiful when black people in the UK answer questions that relate mainly to the us... are black people major players IN THE BRITISH MUSIC INDUSTRY???????????? stop using damon dash as an example, as if he knows you or gives a hoot about you. hes not from the UK..and even though he can be a great inspiration..the US environemt isnt the UK end of.
as for the major players you mention..thats one side of the story..cos they are just middle men anyway..they dont "own" ANY of those labels, but i wont hide the fact that major steps have been made (IN THE US).
your claim that "they" are afraid that once you realise your strentgh..you will somehow "takeover" is laughable, and i advise you to get off your hunger strike, hopefully you will find the knowledge you claim to be 'hungry' for. cos..that was just a stupid statement u made, about them being afraid..so you know your strengths yet..stats and facts show its not being used. as for you blackthought i wont bother replying to you, since the action of 'thought' is not possible with you, since you lack a brain. so i wont bother you.
youre only always confortable with pointing the finger at others..go down to lecieter square or wood green at 2am on an average weekend or weedday..youll see a flood of BLACK youths many in their early teens, you wont find any asians..and very few whites..but black boys and girls in their droves, one would expect that at that age and at that time they should be AT HOME, or do they not have parents?
you cannot expect people to ONLY talk about positive things when theres a disproportionate amount of wrong going on within a certain community of society. and if you're ashamed of constantly being 'put down' then do something to change it...first of all stop lying to yourself. someone cannot change if he doesnt accept theres anything wrong that needs changing.

No there aint that many major BLACK PLAYERS IN THE BRITISH MUSIC INDUSTRY, but can you tell me a real talented white british player??????? except for errmm... Elton Gay... The Breetrutes........thats about it.....
You look at top of the pops... the same whole bore in the top 10... Rachel Stevens....McFly...Sisters Sisters etc..... to me they all sound the same.... as we all know u love your pop to much and any BLACK PERSON THAT DOESN'T DO POP IS NOT WELCOME..or either crush by the same BRITISH MEDIA...
How many times as your Robin Williams won the Brits Award????... or are u telling me that there is no other talent out there.... I mean its a joke... Craig David went up against him.... and he lost... clearly he should have won that year... even some of yours said something was fishy.......
Look at Fame Academy the year Lemar was in... ermm everybody wanted Lemar to win... but oh NO..... a white person had to ..... and tell me where are the other 2 finalist?????... that just was a tip of the iceberg why BLACK BRITISH ACTS ARE NOT THERE....
I can give you more u.. if you want..........
as for the major players you mention..thats one side of the story..cos they are just middle men anyway..they dont "own" ANY of those labels, but i wont hide the fact that major steps have been made (IN THE US).
Oh they don't own those labels, but 15-20 years what was happening???????.. they didn't want anything to do with Hip Hop, they saw it has something that will never make it, let alone dominate the Mucisc industry and why???????..... becuase it was invented by black ppl.
as for you blackthought i wont bother replying to you, since the action of 'thought' is not possible with you, since you lack a brain. so i wont bother you.
Oh no mister , you lack the ability to 'read and digest'...... the word is 'PROACTIVE' not 'REACTIVE'.... u seem to React to this thread whitout a shread of thought......
even yet u still haven't answered my question???....
i don't know why u are on this site... but my notion is u won't last long..... AND YUP U DEFINETLY AINT WELCOME BY ME as for other Memebers I don't know....
youre only always confortable with pointing the finger at others..go down to lecieter square or wood green at 2am on an average weekend or weedday..youll see a flood of BLACK youths many in their early teens, you wont find any asians..and very few whites..but black boys and girls in their droves, one would expect that at that age and at that time they should be AT HOME, or do they not have parents?
*SHAKE HEAD*
Yet another ignorant statement made by a featherbrain white man....
Who is pointing fingers????... someone tell me when will this imbecile learn?..., its not a Black Problem its a youth problem not BLACK youtths only.... why??.... becuase you go outside London.....Liverpool, Newcastle, Southampton, Nottingham etc..... and you see the WHITE YOUTHS and hardly any BLACK YOUTH doing the same thing..... so now tell me is it still a BLACK TRAIT or BLACK PROBLEM?????
you cannot expect people to ONLY talk about positive things when theres a disproportionate amount of wrong going on within a certain community of society. and if you're ashamed of constantly being 'put down' then do something to change it...first of all stop lying to yourself. someone cannot change if he doesnt accept theres anything wrong that needs changing.
Ohhh the dimwit trying to give a lecture.... Why don't you take your up ur own advice... just in case you miss it... I quote it for you..
you cannot expect people to ONLY talk about positive things when theres a disproportionate amount of wrong going on within a certain community of society.

there has never been a more "reactive" post than yours.. so your ignorance shines through.
there are major signs to know when someone 'like you' really lacks the plot
1: when you get personal
2: when you question the persons motives or reason for being on the same site with you (just bcos of a difference of opinion to yours )
3: it then deteriorates into an assumption based on race/culture i.e, calling me racist, or white. you've been the fool for the day. have a happy easter.
im not going to bother with the entertainment stats you're using. you're facts are only half true anyway, did you vote for lemar?? (be absolutely honest with yourself)
take for example, when the popular black show : Blouse and skirt was cancelled, did you write to the BBC to ask why? did you complain to the bbc when the lame show: the crouchers came on? did you BUY (when i say buy i mean pay money for it from a legitimate service like HMV) craig david's album (born to do it) that he went up against robbie williams for?
indians and orientals dont need to bother about the results of fame academy, or who won a brit award..they dont even make the cut for sports either, i would say thats more racist than the stuff youve mentioned. yet..they commit a fraction of the crimes associated with black youth, are 2-3x more successful in educational environments, and just as more successful in business and enterprise. the richest asian is richer than the top 16 black people combined.
i wouldnt consider a brit award your top priority mr thoughtful. but then, ill just agree to disagree with your ineptitude.

1 and 2.) Yes I question your motive as to why you are on this site????.... why... becuase you an INDIVIDUAL white person that came on a black site.... making narrow minded comments about black ppl..... so yes I will question your motive......
3.) Your post thus far have not yet proven otherwise apart from Racially/Culturally motivated..... so fool of the day.... I think not....
im not going to bother with the entertainment stats you're using. you're facts are only half true anyway, did you vote for lemar?? (be absolutely honest with yourself)
If its half way true can u show me the other half???...... and yes I did actually vote for Lemar....
take for example, when the popular black show : Blouse and skirt was cancelled, did you write to the BBC to ask why? did you complain to the bbc when the lame show: the crouchers came on?
I didn't complain about the Crouches, simply becuase I don't watch it....
did you BUY (when i say buy i mean pay money for it from a legitimate service like HMV) craig david's album (born to do it) that he went up against robbie williams for?
No u got ur facts wrong.... he was nominated for 6 awards... one of which was Best British Male.... in the category was Robie Williams... that doesn't have anything to do with Album sales....
Elton John said of Craig: "If there's a better singer than Craig David in Britain, then I'm Margaret Thatcher."
indians and orientals dont need to bother about the results of fame academy, or who won a brit award....
Hold on....... what has this got to do with Asian or Orientals, I gave you a mere example of why there are not many BLACK BRITISH PLAYER in the music industry in UK, and you are comparing it to Asian or Oriental......Wasn't this your question??????...(Highlight in blue just in case u miss it)
are black people major players IN THE BRITISH MUSIC INDUSTRY????????????
they dont even make the cut for sports either
.....simply becuase they are not good in most sports, the ones that are good make it, e.g. Amir Khan simple as
i would say thats more racist than the stuff youve mentioned.
yet..they commit a fraction of the crimes associated with black youth, are 2-3x more successful in educational environments, and just as more successful in business and enterprise. the richest asian is richer than the top 16 black people combined.
... What is this imbecile going about.... now you are drifting of into another topic... obivously you lack concentration..... (I am not going to go into this yet).
i wouldnt consider a brit award your top priority mr thoughtful....refer back to the at the top comment i made....
but then, ill just agree to disagree with your ineptitude.
I don't agree to disagree to narrow mindeded comment..... your argument/debate is flaws.... you can't answer the question I ask you... that only tends to happen for a reason..
a) you don't know
b) you lack knowledge in the question
which only leads to one thing, don't run your mouth at something you don't know....
that can only be defined as REACTIVE not PROACTIVE.
YET AGAIN YOU HAVE PROVEN MY THEORY YOU LACK THE ABILITY TO READ AND DIGEST.....

| in your initial description of elton john, you called him elton gay. now that you remember he made a good comment about craig david you call him elton john? you want to use things and situations and people as they suit you. well done for clarifying my point. theres no need to explain myself further, you're too ignorant and naive to debate with. and incase you dont know debates tend to drift to other topics slightly..just as you may notice on the board. but i guess little talk is suffiecient for little brains.. i stand corrected.

I use elton John/Gay, to give you a good example, as some ppl view him as one the greatest artist and legend, to show that even he supports Craig David..... my personal opinion of him doesn't have anything relevant to do with the comment that he made..... so whats your point ??...
well done for clarifying my point.
Clarrifying what point???
theres no need to explain myself further, you're too ignorant and naive to debate with.
You seem to be describing yourself perfectly there...., becuase you have yet to answer any question I asked YOU...., but yet I have answered your questions... you seem to be drifting away on each post.... so tell me.... who is IGNORANT?????...
or maybe I am just to NAIVE..... to even think that you could actually answer this questions, with a shred of intelligence....
and incase you dont know debates tend to drift to other topics slightly
Debates tend to drift off topic when:
1.) The other party, don't want to answer
2.) Have no answer
3.) Knows they are wrong, and trying avoid the question
4.) Someone else joined in, and in this case nobody has....
I asked YOU simple direct question.... which YOU should be able to understand as an intelligent person would..... but yet you have failed and therefore proven otherwise.
.just as you may notice on the board. Look at the main reason at the top

black people are put down bcos they constantly leave themselves open to be put down, they consistently play up to those who consistently WANT them to be put down along with most of the things they are predominantly associated with like HH music where you have idiots gun toting and tearing apart what it took 5 generations to achive and still hasnt been completed yet......in one generation. simple answer for a simple mind

As a black person i'm sick of hearing comments such as 'black people are lazy' and 'black on black violence' and 'why do black girls hate' and all the other ignorant things people who obviously have self issues have to say about black people.
Infact i feel it neccarasary to educate those people who use the above comments to relate to black people.
black on black violence
Yes there is black on black violence but are we forgetting white on white violence too, every race or culture enflicts violence on their own, but whenever its black people the media seems to highlight the fact.
gun crime violence amongst the black community out strips crime pertaining to other races within their own community in the uk, of all the gun violence relate crimes in 2004 77% were commited by black people.........against OTHER black people,
compared to the percentage of the population, black people are accountable for a disproportionate amount of street crime, infact 58% (per % of the population) so if 20 out of 50 people do something..it is seen in percentage wise as higher than 2 out of 2000 people doing something. so its not saying that 58% of black people commit crime. just a disproprtionate amount compared to the %age of the rest of the minorites, street crime is very high on the agender cos its EVERYONES RIGHT TO FEEL AND BE safe on the streets. so dont go blabbing about why ecstacy use amongst white kids isnt as talked about.
black people are lazy
yes some of us are lazy so are some white people and chinese and indian its stupid to say all black people are lazy, infact black people are doing well for themselves people seem to be forgetting people such as halle berry, beyonce, trevor nelson, trevor mcdonald, ian wright , and loads of other black people who have made things of themselves. Our youths are even trying to pursue their dreams with people such as dizee rascal, so solid crew ect;
so solid crew? well 2 went into prison, one who was in a "gund of our streets" campaign is now IN prison for a gun related killing. are you really that silly to even use so solid as an example? when people generalaise they generalise not claiming that there are NO positives, but that there are alot of negatives. black carribean boys are failing in schools, they all want to be rappers and record compnay execs.
puff daddy, had the right training, as did damon dash, they werent no "hoodlums" or "gangstas" thast why they are in the position they are in today
Black girls hate or are always screwing
Its in a persons nature to be envious and to want what others have, but to single out black girls and put them into this catergory of jealousy is pathetic. I know white girls that hate, mixed race, and other raaces but yet again the black person is being singled out.
50% of black men date/marry outside their race, no other race in the UK or the world does that. is this bcos the men cannot find what they lok for in black women? the question is yet to be answered, but a pattern is arising
I wonder, are black people that interesting that people are constantly looking at the stone in our eyes and not worrying about the one in their own.
things will always be said about others, people say stuff about jews, about muslims, about christians, about white people. its left for those people to empower themselves with the right tools and education to overcome it. like the jews..bcos the "hating" wont go away...

Let me remind you of the actual question posed :
'why are black people being constantly put down?'
This question is not restricted to black people in the United Kingdom, thus my comments remain valid (since they apply to BLACK PEOPLE, regardless of the region they live in) and yours do not
your claim that "they" are afraid that once you realise your strentgh..you will somehow "takeover" is laughable, .........that was just a stupid statement u made, about them being afraid..
You have made a statement...now please expand to say WHY? You disagree with me but provide no reasoning as to why my comments are 'laughable.' Unless you explain your reasons, your words carry no substance

I dont know what you mean by this. I did a year at leeds uni and the only blacks that isolated themsleves choose to isolate themsleves. Me, i was too busy drinking my life away at the students union bar and having fun. I guess you missed the good bit of university.
With regrds to thinking one race is superior, the only whites who spend most of their time thinking of this, are those who are bitter and need someone to blame or something to feel good about. My experience is that most people, of ALL RACES are out to make a living and have a good time. You either have the choice of being paranoid for the rest of your life or go out there and enjoy what you can get out of life without the hang ups. There would always be people full of hate, just work around them and let them eat themslevs up woth their hate.
Off to play some golf... aint life good?
