I saw this question posted on a certain web site, and this is my reply to such questions. In this article I planed to by pass what others have done to blacks and to show what blacks are not doing. Things that other black groups are doing and pulling themselves out of the dilemma. I am not targeting any special ethnic group. However, I am making an over all comment base on my personal observation and base on what I have read.
I was watching this documentary where a bear teams up with a cat and cows team up with black birds to survive. You have to by pass your own prejudice, in other to network. If you are not networking, you will never come out of the jam you are in. I lived in a black community, and every time other blacks need help they came knocking on my doors, at the same time those same black people hated Jamaicans with a passion,. I can see the hate in their eyes even when they are standing at my door asking me for help. They cannot overcome the fact that I am a Jamaican. “You came here, worked seventeen jabs and buy house” I cannot sleep in the street. Even the black pastors are of the same spirit and attitudes. They have learned nothing from Jesus.
BLACKS TRULY DO NOT HELP EACH OTHER
All the help I get came from white people. It reaches a stage now where I do not complain when my self and a white have some problem. Just think about those black athletes. They could set up banks to lend money, to train other blacks. Few of them are helping. Look at all those black lawyers, how many of them helping blacks that are in prison innocently?
Black people are not the only people who suffer through history. However, many of the people who suffered have learned something from that suffering and are striving to make a come back. Blacks on an overall do nothing but demonstrate and complains. When they demonstrate at a certain town, they buy out every thing from that town, such as water, soft drinks, tobacco, and pizza. So after the demonstration the town made tens of million of dollars. The same town that is persecuting them makes a large profit in income. Therefore, the demonstration only helps the same town. All the town needs to do next year when they have a deficit is to kill another black and call in the demonstrators again to buy the town dry, and pull them out of their deficit.
One man told me that he was (making sex) to a girl. He was giving her competition, and she was screaming, and finally she slid out from under him. Scream if you want, but for God sake slid out. Do not just stand there talking whet the white men are doing to you, do something to prevent it.
(1) SOLD OUT AND SET UP.
The black people who were brought to the Americas were sold out from Africa. The white slave traders could not go into the jungle and catch them, their own people took them captive and sold them out. Sometime black slaves were swaps for white slaves’ women.
The slaves that were brought were people that could be easily control. People like the Zulu and other war like black people were not taken. It only takes one Ashanti Warrior or one Zulu to teach the other weak ones to rise up and give the slave masters trouble. It happens all the time. Some slave ships were taken over by the slaves. Some Island slaves took over the island and held the slave’s masters captive. The ones that were brought to some places in the Americas were people who could not work together not even for the common good.

(2) SELF INFLICTED SUFFERING.
Some of black people suffering today are self-inflicted. I gave a man a ride in my car. I was going to work. At his destination, he decides to push his luck a little further. He asks me if I had, any money could give him. All I had was $7 us $5 for my lunch and two to buy gas. I gave him $3 plus the free ride. The person was so vex at the $3 I was lucky he did not attack me. My own brother spent some fifteen years in a Jamaican prison. I supported his children while he was away. In addition, help the grand children that begin to come in. An his return from prison. I was in the process of buying a boat engine to bring for him. Since he is in the fishing business. My mother was very reluctant about me helping him. Finally a lady who lives next door to my mother call me and told me not to come out because the man is planning to kill me when I came out. Some people want others to do for them what they have no intention of doing for themselves.
(3) A GOOD CHANCE OF DOING BETTER AND OTHERS SCARED OF THAT
Some of the blacks suffering come about because black seems to be a worthy contender and others scared that blacks might do better than their counter part if the blacks are allowed to contend freely without stumbling blacks. When I was going to Diesel mechanic school, my counter part throw bolts in the engine, swap the parts, hide the tools and do every thing to make us fail. Picks fight, pointing guns at me each morning on my way to school. When the police see them and arrested them, they blame me. Did they do it out of hate? No. Scared that I might do better. The teachers also pass on that scared to the students. They could bring the calculators and do a test, and boast about it later. However, when I do the same things, they failed me on purpose.
SOMETIME ONLY JESUS CAN HELP US
Acts 4:12 (KJV)Neither is there salvation in any other: for there is none other name under heaven given among men, whereby we must be saved.
Romans 5:6 (KJV) For when we were yet without strength, in due time Christ died for the ungodly. Romans 5:7 (KJV) For scarcely for a righteous man will one die: yet peradventure for a good man some would even dare to die. Romans 5:8 (KJV) But God commendeth his love toward us, in that, while we were yet sinners, Christ died for us. Romans 5:9 (KJV) Much more then, being now justified by his blood, we shall be saved from wrath through him. Romans 5:10 (KJV) For if, when we were enemies, we were reconciled to God by the death of his Son, much more, being reconciled, we shall be saved by his life. Romans 5:11 (KJV) And not only so, but we also joy in God through our Lord Jesus Christ, by whom we have now received the atonement.
Matthew 6:33-AV But seek ye first the kingdom of God, and his righteousness; and all these things shall be added unto you.
Isaiah 55:6-AV Seek ye the LORD while he may be found, call ye upon him while he is near: Isaiah 55:7-AV Let the wicked forsake his way, and the unrighteous man his thoughts: and let him return unto the LORD, and he will have mercy upon him; and to our God, for he will abundantly pardon.
