      And yet there is a big number of black folk completely embracing this culture and even go into arguments with anyone that dares to question any of it...People may try to point a finger everywhere else but it seems that people that embrace this culture do so willingly, they have a choice but they seem to find it all too entertaining and "liberating" to give it up. They're not the only people in history to be tempted, no, but they did a lot to contribute to this particular culture and many of them wanted their slice of money, fame, loose lifestyle etc so to obsolve them of their part of the responsibility would be doing a disservice to truth.

    Some people say im a white girl trapped in a black girls body, im white-washed, etc. I dont wanna be white tho. I once got called white washed bc I said i never lived in the hood and my house never got sh0t up (im being serious) I dont cuss, i try to be as nice as possible, I have good grades, im in choir and orchestra. When it comes to my friends its pretty diverse. I have friends of all races/ethnicities. When ppl called me white-washed for that i was soo confused, like how am i white for living in a good neighborhood. This black dude once told me to "act more black" and i was like how do i act black? He was being super stereotypical.

    Great video. Thought provoking. My list would look like this:
    1-A. Lack of accountability
    1-B. We pass our burdens on to the next generation
    2. Need to blame perceived shortcomings on external factors.
    3. Glorify and idolize the wrong things
    4. Addicted to drama and shenanigans
    5. Lack the ability to settle our disputes and disagreements without violence, insults, or retribution.
    Honorable mention:
    6. We've stopped teaching our kids manners, honor, respect for authority, and humility.
    7. There is an intellectual and political class that is more interested in enabling the worse among us than challenging them to be better.

There are generations of families that have never left and are living comfortable lives, it really depends on what part of the city you live in.

They will either not tip you or leave u a half assed tip (I’ve gotten literal Pennie’s on a 200 dollar tab) or complain the entire time and want everything for free. I thought Karen’s were the worst customers but no every time I see a table of black people sit in my section I know I’m not making anything that day. They always so rude and really straight forward but not in a good way “Hi how are u guys today” almost every single time I either get ignore or they look at me and start complaining about something.

Big Corporations run the media we consume. That's why you have to change your algorithms. When you view nothing but trash, you will see that only. Just like if you stay in the hood, you will see hood activities. No matter how famous or successful you get, you can always use your platform for good and change. You don't have to sell out for views. That's the truth. But pple are using their platforms for all the wrong reasons.

By the time I reached 5th grade I placed 3rd out of 985 students testing statewide for reading and comprehension. Made the local newspaper and all.

A fat nasty redneck called our friend the N word one time in 8th grade and literally everyone was repulsed by it. Common thread amongst the black kids at my school was a strong family. Mom and dad both involved in their academics and sporting events. We were all just boys you know? Everything was good. We spent the night at each others house and everything. Our culture genuinely just felt the same. We are born and raised South Carolinians.

    I was rewatching fresh prince the other day and I stumbled upon that one episode where Will and Carlton were trying to get into a fraternity, but they rejected Carlton because in the presidents mind, Carlton was too ‘preppy’ and didn’t fit his definition of what ‘black’ is. Uncle Phil’s line of “No one ever told me there was a penalty for success.” Says so little but so much at the same time. Moreso than other races from what I’ve seen, jealousy seems to run rampant amongst us. We glorify the struggle and look down at those whose parents worked hard and gave them a fighting chance in life, and I get it, seeing someone have it so easy when you don’t even know where your next meal is coming from, but that’s not your nor their fault. If anything, that should motivate you to grow past your current situation and build a life for your kids thay you didn’t have.

The woman is earning like only 60% of what the man is, yet spends most of the salary. Not only does the woman also not take care of the children, but she lets them run rampant and disregard any semblance of control/stability the man tries to impose on his kids. It's WILD.

    Admittedly when I was growing up as a black kid, I was almost ashamed of being my skin color because of how I saw so many black people portraying the stereotypes of putting other people down because they aren’t trapping, glorifying behaviors like shooting, etc.
    idk if it makes much of a difference-but I also went to very predominantly white schools + lived in fairly white areas until I got to middle school. so it was initially such a huge shock when eventually i got to witness firsthand those behaviors/mentalities.

    I agree with about 70-85% of the video. My main disagreements come from the fact that a lot of these issues summarize 15-25% of the black community. A subculture of the black community. That percentage is still too high in my opinion, but I can't comfortably say it's an issue with the "black community" when this happens in areas where there is primarily a lack of both parents in a low socioeconomic neighborhood which leads to all of these issues occurring. More black people than ever are going into trades and other arts while this is happening a subsection of us posting degenerate stuff on the internet because of how easy it is to do so, which is being marketer as all black people. I don't think the whole should be labeled as the subsection, but I do agree with the critique overall of.

      I agree with the majority of your sentiment but I question if 15-25% of the population is a vast underestimation of the issue.
      From my experience, the majority of our urban cores were culturally blighted by the crack era and never really recovered.
      Growing up in the Rust Belt with close ties to my Southern roots, I'd guess between 50-80% of the everyday urban blk folk I encounter are guilty of some of the issues detailed in this video and others to varying levels.
      The last strongholds of old African American middle-class / high-society culture seem to be in the suburbs, pockets of the rural south and splotches of well raised urbanites.
      While I'm not saying we're all opp-smoking, baby mama making wannabe trap rappers, that specific sub-culture is, unfortunately, painfully common across the foundational African-American community.
      Because it's backed by corporate interests and seen as "cool", this mindset seems to infect across class lines even absent of the underlying environment that created it. I've known quite a few of our suburban brothers and sisters who chose to assimilate into this f*ckery despite coming from stable, middle-class or even upper class backgrounds. It's tragic

I think the issue with black culture is the fact that there is no role models or good parents for people to look up to so when they see the ones who do drugs and rap like it is big time, of course they are going to cling to that. But this is more of a culture thing as opposed to a race. Not everybody has the same opportunities as me and vice versa.

    the homophobia in the black community is also very rampant and as a black man myself a lot of the homophobia is very reminiscent of jim crow era with how white people treated black people

      Not comparable. A fair comparison would be like living in the 80s and 90s and being lgbtq where discrimination was outta control and normalized to all hell

      @@Cciium black people (and most other racial minorities) tend to be more socially conservative. This can be due to religion. Most religions (especially Christianity, Islam, and Judaism) are not very accepting of the LGBT community, therefore thats where it comes from. With that being said, comparing it to jim crow era is way out of proportion and they are not remotely similar.

    You can be a "tough" guy and still work a normal job and follow the law. These new generation regardless of skin color tends to look up to criminals and think that lifestyle is what they need to pursue instead of educating themselves.

    I liked your video. I have been called a sellout for multiple reasons. My favorite one was when I was called a sellout because I love to read. I could spend all day on my days off in the library downtown...well. When it was still open. Homeless ran everyone out for the most part sadly
