The entire foot market 😂
Oh man, this killed me 😂
He was a little too passionate about this foot scrubbing lol
Mature conversations aint meant for people like yall
@chedorichie2171 why you say that?
@@torreyt948 blk people want to make a joke about everything.. This video was a small example on how we as a people dont look at the bigger picture especially on things we spend money on that we could capitalize on but instead we leave it to other groups of people because of pride. We already behind the 8ball and with this influx of immigrants we gone get pushed further out the way! At least all things we like and value we need to be selling to each other and employing ourselves instead of Letting other groups profit off us...
I know it’s a serious video but, out of context, “you just gave them control over the entire foot market!” is the funniest sentence of all time 😂
I literally laughed out loud! Although he's probably telling the truth it sounds ridiculously hilarious! 😂😂
His points are Pointing!
He said with demeanor and anger, he made it sound like he said “fucking foot market!”😂😂
😂😂😂 did the bring back toe jam?
@@karimahc66I see your thinker is thinking
As a black man I remember my dad gave me the best advice he said whatever black people are doing or talking about do the opposite and everything will work out
Best advice for all living creatures in the universe. Im also pretty sure this can be found in all the ancient scrolls from all civilizations.
@@PNWTraveler i can guarantee you cannot comprehend anything bigger than economics so what are you talking about
@@blankblank5231 Thank you. In very simple terms since economics is understanding how people decide what to buy, how businesses decide what to produce, and how governments manage resources to improve people's lives in a community, state, country and on an international/global scale. I take that as a compliment. Economics is a big deal.
“as a black man” yeaaaaaa alright bro
😂 I didn't get this advice but I realized it pretty early on my own. Best way to live 🙌
“THE ENTIRE FOOT MARKET”😂😂😂😂 screaming that man that man
"Probably eat they toe jam and everything, kiss they boogies!!!" 😂😂😂
😂
As a former nail tech/manicurist, I gained so much clientele because I also performed pedicures! I was stunned when the women would say how much they had trouble finding black manicurists that perform pedicures… my pockets did not mind and that’s when I learned my love for removing dead skin pays off!!!
This went off the rails quickly. Pop off I guess.
😂😂@@jaccblikky8977
Some necrophiliac type behaviour🌚
the last part 💀💀💀 I mean atleast you found your passion! 😀
@@princejaxisblack8789 😂🤣 I know right😂💙
The entire foot market had me rolling 😂 but it’s all facts tho
lol it is funny but it's true. Its like if one person do a 10/10 job on just your finger nails & the other do a good 8/10 on finger nails but do a 10/10 in feet, but u want your nails and feet done, u not gonna go to one person to get your finger nails who do the 10/10 and then goto another to get your toe nails done who do 10/10, nah u gon goto the person who does both, women will live with the 8/10 on fingers if it come with 10/10 on toes+ u do both. lol The one who do the toes gonna win 9/10 times for shit sure
😂😂😂
I’ve yet to see a black nail shop that doesn’t do pedicures
I’m confused by what he said. If the foot market is out of the black womens control but then they do white women?
@@adamwehri the "foot market" isnt out of black womens control, some or most black women just choose not to do feet because some feet are "too ugly" or some shit so what he's saying is, by giving up that, it leaves wide open for other races to grab hold of that which would equal for more money for other races rather then for blacks
My wife is a nail tech that also does pedicures, toes, foot massages etc. Crazy how much of an impact the majority of black owned businesses would have on the industry if they just added pedis to their portfolio. Pair of gloves and a mask and you’re good.
Edit : 1k likes is crazy 🖤
Asians own hair and the nail industry blacks need to not patronize their huisness
@@helena3631but what if they want their feet done? Takes us back to square one.
@@helena3631who getting a barrel retwist from Kim chi at Asian salon and nails
I’ve never been to a Black nail salon that doesn’t do pedicures.
But Ik a lot of black nail care that does feet so this is a bullshit talking point
Big facts. Then they closed the auto shops and home economics classes in schools
This puts things into so much perspective. I’m a Nigerian woman and I go to an Asian nail salon. I get my gel natural nails done for $35 and my gel toes for $28. I get my butt-length braids done at an African woman’s garage for $170. The other African salons quoted me $$200-$250 and black braiding salons quoted me $190-$400+ for the same thing. I tip at both my places that I go to. I don’t care who is doing these services, as long as I’m not paying more than I have to. I get compliments and questions all the time and I’m saving so much money!
U the problem
@@rambonmb4953 Lol whatever you say. Go and give them all your money 🤣
170 for braids damn fuck that I'll get bald skin fade
@@tbomari For now while I’m making money in a different state. When I go back home, it’s free 😌
As someone who lived in a predominantly black neighborhood and went to a predominantly black high school, we had so many trade schools certification programs. We even had an agricultural program. It can be done, the community just has to want it.
Same here. This was in the Miami area. They need to bring them back if they don't have the anymore.
Same as my High School in Indiana and they are still running currently.
Thank you for saying this. From Baltimore and every school has a trade program but most don’t utilize the resources that are available.
But you don't get it we still wanted it yet they took it away. My high schools when I grew up had trade certifications then it just stopped. We didn't stay stop!
WE need to bring this back. If there are still people in our communities that practice trades and have small businesses, why not have them teach a small class or have an apprenticeship? These classes also still exist at community colleges and vocational schools. Not only that there's YT Univ. It could be a weekend thing or part of a service project. We ABSOLUTELY need trades in our community. It is in OUR hands.
My father passed years ago and we have tons of hand and power tools. I bet that's true for others too. We have resources. We can start with what we have.
What’s crazier is black people KNOW THIS. And most of us still do NOTHING about it
I learned to do it myself. I don’t really enjoy going to others, but I’m not giving lazy people my money either. Nobody has time to go to two different places for nails and feet. That’s just ridiculous.
In 2024 they can only blame themselves. My father was a 2 time felon, 38 conviction, possession, possession with intent to sale, braking and entering, burglary, murder, attempted murder (he beat those trials thankfully or I wouldn't have been born), and everything in-between (no weirdo sh_t). Ni__a didn't know how to put the pipe or bottle down. Wild since my grandfather was a Nevada state trooper and my grandmother wasxa charge nurse. Had us homeless in Vegas and San Francisco. Ni__as choices caught up with him in 98... I was 3. His father died 2 weeks after he did to the day. My grandmother died when I was 7. After that apparently we were no longer family to his family 🤷♂️. By 8 I was inside an engine, that same year I started carpeting, hanging drywall, mudding and sanding rooms, painting walls, mixing concrete, etc... by the time I was 15 landlords in the neighborhood were coming to me to repair their properties and neighbors weren't taking their cars to the shop. Moved put my mothers at 15 going on 16... haven't looked back since. Some of us make excuses and some of us stfu and go and get it. I agree I wish more folks woukd be self sufficient, but unfortunately we have a real problem in thus country with blaming others for our shortcomings. No one's holding us back but us. If ni__as really wanted to they would.
Yes I agree.
Just to see that is called a mentality problem.
Its a Good time to school our youth that it is normal and take an example by showing our youth who's doing it now,can be done by Us.
Its just our Way to accept the Way things go and we are not there yet.
Pride
@@kram9076 how is it pride if your not being successful at something? Make it make sense
I love the fact we have black techs that are only doing feet here in Jacksonville FL. It's a black owned nail shop who the sister does only nails and her sister does ONLY feet. That was the smartest thing ever.
Duuuvvvallll!!
Where? I'm in Duval.

What I’ve always told young people is this. Short of anything illegal as long as you don’t think of anything being “ beneath you” you will always have work and money in your pockets.

No what he said the white women be ready to do what yall not like do no feet, ready to eat ya toe jam n all

When is everyone finally going to realize Marcus Garvey was right? There is not black prosperity under American capitalism. Working with a financial institution that is made to systematically exploit and exclude us is pointless. Majority of us will always be over represented in the negative statistics and under represented in the positive statistics. That’s by design of the capitalist system of white global hegemony.

I tell my people all the time take a trade College is cool for a Doc or lawyer maybe an accountant, but trades will never die
I'm an accountant in tax, before I went back to school o was gonna do an electrician apprenticeship but I got hurt in a motorcycle and had to pivot
We can't be all traders.
I did everything I was told and even went to Harvard. Yep. Until I realised I was called joined the design / entertainment/ artist world.
Of course I always knew what my I was meant to do but I denied it . The trade in creative endeavors opened up a world I never knew,like I can create magic...lol but my Harvard exposure kept mdle in places that when people looked at me they dismissed because they felt oohhh she is an artist. But once I opened my nouth and spoke with my inner voice that only a well seasoned education could give me . The gatekeepers had no chioce but to finally open the golden doors.
Hear me not every one is gifted. You need to have the innate ability for a trade skill. Not everyone can do it
Ttraders in the US only unionizes its people . There is something that trade unions dont give. It's called polished education. And its required.
Get the trade and get that education up if you can.
Sorry my man, but most trades will die off. With ai and robots being built a lot of manual labor jobs are probably gonna get swapped out to robots doing everything. Then only mechanics and engineers are actually needed to fix anything, while everyone else loses their jobs
Yup people always need their Cars, Toilets, Roofs, wiring etc those needs will never end.
@@followGreatness I’d always recommend both a trade and a degree.
That’s exactly what happened!!!
I remember my city had trade schools in the high school. Then the black clergy, urban league, naacp ALL lobbied to get the students to go to college and forego trades (likened it to slavery or some stupidity like that) and the kids ate it up because their parents were in on it too (being ignorant).
Luckily, I like a girl that was in the Surgical Tech program, and me being a young simp, signed up for the courses-I found my purpose to be a doctor. Going on 30 years in the medical field.
Tell your children about trades!!!
Simping works out sometimes man
Now they have all hospitality job training even in charter schools
Simping got you a prestigious job. Congratulations, but give yourself more credit. You bust your ASS, simping can only take you so far, lol. Just fucking with you.
Real an da Raw
So this is actually why we don’t have trades in the high schools anymore? I’ve always wondered but never heard of this before.
I do know it’s not just black schools. They got rid of them across the board.
That "kiss they BOOGIES!" sped up sounds funny AF 😹
I’m glad they spoke on this the new wave of owners, entrepreneurs and tradespeople are lazy. They have poor customer service. Poor problem solving skills and no ability to master their skill set because they can’t read with comprehension or count accurately. It’s fucked up. Out here as a consumer and employee. Everyone is lazy greedy and selfish.
y’all do realize that MEN in the Asian nail shops does a significant number of pedicures
Quit making excuses
Yeah I noticed
@@mangekyou0g872 not making excuses just stating the facts that Asian men do pedicures so if Black men want to make money doing pedicures there’s nothing stopping them….go get your bag 💰
Lmao that’s an excuse my girl go to the same Chinese lady to get her nails and toes done in fact it’s more women working in that particular nail shop than men lol.
Stop it
@@Kevo-ww6vwshe not lying tho, quit speakin on what u dont know, facts.
This is coming from the same guy that said he was going to build the school for Black people in Philadelphia and he never did. I’m from Philadelphia and he took a lot of money to build at school and it’s still sitting there empty
Because he tried to get us (brothers) to do it and they turned on him and he refused to let white men do it so it sits vacant untill he can get good trustworthy black men on the contract it sits vacant so stop holding this over his head please...
That money for that school is in his pocket.
@@amirahal-wehbi 💯%
Exactly, whenever he opens his mouth and starts “preaching” i always say what about the school? I’m waiting 🥱
Apparently it’s in Wilmington
Dont call a working Sistah "lazy, selfish.." It's not about being humble. The Black women are doing the nails alone based on appointments. The Asians have a whole crew so they can do walk-ins and extra services.
Exactly
It depends on where you go. There is a lot of black owned salons that have a staff that don't do pedicures but some do
At least we're working. We ain't never been lazy or selfish, we will hustle & raise our kids at the same time; they mad because we're making money and not giving them a damn thing anymore. 😅😂😅😂.
@@4CQueen Sorry but unfortunately it's more lazy ones then not. You're few in a million(me included) and I mean that as a compliment because ba-by this younger generation is beyond entitled and lazy. Even with a profession they chose!! Lol

As a 30 year old white dude. I would love to see more 20 year old black men building houses, but I don't know why I don't see it. I would really like to understand why that community really doesn't see its fair share of diversity.
Ok. I'm a black contractor in little rock Ar.
What I find is this.
When I'm on the phone with a builder it's fine . I pull up on site and it's ohhhh!
You're larry!!
I didn't know you were
Me: black
Them: I didn't mean
Me: ok bet wheres the work
But: white people 99% pays for service
But my own black people I work for on their houses I have a hard time getting paid .
Plus the black men that does own construction companies
Hire Mexicans.
And shits on other contractors
I paint houses and commercial building
For 20 yrs
Idk where you live but around here it's hard making a dollar being a skilled black painter
I hope this explains
Bro tryna take back the foot market💀💀💀
He flipped his ENTIRE POINT into stay on subject. He's the best 😅💕💕💕💕
i had the worst experience at a black nail shop i paid for a medi pedi they was nice but didn’t really want to touch u my nails was ugly the owner told the lady to do free design on my nails she did nt want to do nothing extra so i said i want two different colors then she act like she didn’t wanna do it the pedi was terrible they just soak ur feet in bubbles and dry and paint them im like u not doing nothing else she said no u need go somewhere else for that i never went back so i keep going to the places that do it all take my money where they dnt care bout touching u well u no hands and feet this was in a city stone crest ga
Yep. As a black woman if I need to get my feet done I have no choice but to go to the Asians even when I want a black woman to do my feet. She did my hands, so now I need another servicer for feet? When I can go to the Vietnamese place where they’ll do both???? It’s so silly and I wish these black nail techs would step up.
I think it all comes down to effort and who’s willing to do more when I often go to black barbershop they just cut my hair and usually they don’t do detail work or anything , plus sometimes look a bit rundown and it’s always packed waiting an hour for cuts but when I went I started going to Hispanic barbershop and asked for fade some are usually or either a bit more money but they put more effort and detail and I just always felt more satisfied and there shops are always clean and comfortable and they always had someone available to cut my hair especially when I’m on a busy schedule it’s bit more professional to me in my opinion.
I get what umar is saying but if I want better results im going where to it’s more convenient. Our people have the opportunity to compete but question who’s willing to make the first step.
Asians have always been harder workers.
It’s not a blk woman issue it’s the new nail techs the ones who do those really nice nails they don’t do feet, I live in a mixed area and the Mexican girls don’t do feet either they all really only do nails u gotta go to the shops to get the feet done
Its not anyone's issue except urs, u refuse to let any other race or settle just to let another race give u a dam manicure that's called being racist. Expecting your own race too do every job cuz u dont want another race to do it that's so dumb why does it matter then you wanna whine bout racism bru this is too much. Your acc a bunch of race baiting regards🙄🙄
This Chillllllee no problem! I want to support yall but nahhh I want a one and done !
Nothing but FACTS! 💯💯💯
Yes indeed! I was taught you’re a “loser” if you don’t go to a 4 year college…. You need that university on your resume and transcripts! I’m 45 and regret the obvious “student loan debt “ 87k I also went on to get a masters degree. But the point being , I do real estate at the the present! So to save money , I had to teach myself how to do “handyman” work to save money. I do electrical, plumbing,drywall, flooring, cosmetics. . And I realize TRADES ate the wave of the future and present! Those guys make more money and without student loan debt of your 4 year university graduates. It’s not all bad but it’s worth it. Because yes I work in my field of higher learning, but I still see more value and money in the trade! Pulse you can be your own boss .
@@rays3868who is reading all of that
Same with housekeeping. Black people too good to clean houses. Now the Latinas doing housekeeping and it ain't cheap.
Well, minus white people kissing their clients feet, that was just blatant racism. But hey, it's anti-white racism, that makes it okay to say some the most heinous shit about a person and keep your conscience clear.
Thank you for recognizing what they took out of the schools😮😮😮😮😮
I’m a nail tech and I would support other women but it’s so hard to find someone that does both so I do my own and everyone else’s and my clients love me 😊
Be careful about the way you choose to see the world because it becomes your reality. If you believe they don't want a specific type to educate, then that's all you will see. You never see a crack head come up with an excuse not to get high. Yet everyone comes up with an excuse not to make money.
Yooo so fucking true!
Easier way to say it is “You always steer the way you look.”
I think people also say what you say to avoid looking at what’s right in front of their face. If there is an issue or a negative situation. We can acknowledge it and work to change it. However, if you act like an issue doesn’t exist, it can exacerbate it as well.
We were not put on this earth to fight with each other for money and power this is MAN MADE struggle not what God intended for us.

But why is it sped up?

This is one of the points that Dr. Carter G. Woodson makes in The Miseducation of the Negro.
Side note: In Atlanta (Dekalb County) we still have these trade programs in the high schools with OEC.
Several schools still have trades…ppl choose not to take them!
I just searched Philadelphia public schools and there’s 10 different CTE (Vocational) programs including construction/manufacturing 🦺
Uh, no we don’t, I went to redan highschool graduated In 2021 and have friends who went to surrounding schools (Stone Mountain, Shiloh, McNair, etc…) we didn’t have anything but cooking class. That’s it. No trade programs to be heard of around here.
My lil sister went to Stephenson and did OEC in 2020. It’s a program where you leave the school for like half a day to learn a trade/pathway.

The entire foot market is CRAAAZY
Most Black Men aren’t bound by duty or obligation, instead they hold excuse for everything! Union Ironworker, Single Mom, Fresh out of Prison and sleeping in car with my child. Started my apprenticeship making $30/hr, 15 years ago. I had to adapt a serious work ethic, overcome my fear of heights, learned to weld, read print’s, lay rebar and bolt up. Most BM I encountered along the way had every excuse, most couldn’t put the weed down or be on time to save their life.
What are you obsessed with black men or something? This very specific part of their interview, they're mostly talking about black women chick.
don’t deflect. there’s more black men in trades and STEM then black women and black men still make more money then black women as a whole. your anecdotal experience doesn’t reflect reality. black men still have better financial literacy then black women. get your facts straight. nice try.
They don't want to hear that. They want to live in a fantasy land where trades were taken out of black high schools just to hurt them. Trades were taken out from the majority of high schools around the country due to liability issues. But you can go right to community College and get a trade. Actually in some cases you can take community College classes in high school. And if you are low income these courses are practically free. But even if it was a challenge, whatever happened to "where there is a will, there is a way"?
Congratulations on your success after hard work btw. I worked in the industry for nearly 20 years and the occasions I was out in the field always left me with a ton of respect for the women and men put there doing the WORK on a daily basis. It ain't easy, the fear of heights thing is real and would have me rattled for the entire day. I salute you maam

Wait...hold up... I thought having an education was a good thing? How was desegregation a bad thing?
This isn’t accurate. I’m a licensed nail tech. Some manicurist in general don’t do pedis, and that’s fine. In our industry we want professionals to focus on what interests them more so that they’ll enjoy what they’re doing and do a good job at it.
Some may not do them because they can’t afford the equipment to perform that service to its best quality. I don’t like that he’s putting out false propaganda like this. Black women already get looked at sideways in most industries. Why propagate an untrue negative portrayal of us. If he’s so concerned about our placement in the market then this was such a bad thing to say. He didn’t help at all.
He has a point, but books also teaches us all of this. Black people or people of color just refuse to turn to the library and expand their knowledge
Black people are il not people of color.
Why though? I want to understand

As a licensed nail technician….a LOT of nail techs don’t do pedicures. Not just the black ones. Manis and extensions are more profitable and way easier on your body. Pedis can be more time consuming but the average client would spend 90-300 on nails vs 45-75 on a pedi. I do both as more of a spa service to charge more however I respect those that don’t. Why flood your books with the lesser service if you don’t NEED to, keeping the higher ticket from booking ?
Just another example of ppl not knowing wtf they’re talking about and yet still saying it with their full chests.
I’m just gonna say this. Most people don’t have certifications on the business they perform or side hustles. Doing someone else’s feet is one of those things that is a sure way to get the health department involved in your business. I never had a problem doing feet. Girls work hard and need to be professionally taken care of, but don’t come for the black women who refuse to put themselves in legal situations they don’t have credentials for. They are being safe rather than sorry 😊
He’s right tho, when you think you’re at a disadvantage and the rest of the world thinks so to is when you are at your most capable. Better to be underestimated than overestimated. This is also why there are so few amazing people left because it takes a certain kind of humble to glory in irrelevance
I’m glad more and more people are waking up to the system trying to tear us apart and keep racism alive.
Respect to Dr. Umar for spreading the message
Lmfao. The only people keeping racism alive is people like him who constantly talk about it.
😂 excuses everywhere
You think white people are secretly plotting to keep the labor jobs…. You think we are gatekeeping the hardest and most difficult jobs in the country…. You think black people getting educations and desk jobs is evidence of them being oppressed….. victim mindset.
@@johnhargrove7744He does nothing but cry and complain like a female 😂
1.) before desegregation, most black americans were plumbers, farmers, industrial workers, or trade workers in general, and it stayed that way for a generation after desegregation, look at places like Detroit, Elkhart, IN, and places like that, so to say it changed after desegregation is misinformation.
2.) Bigger issue was offshoring or outsourcing of African American dominated fields to Asia and Latin America because the labor is far cheaper than the wages they had to pay to American citizens (race was not the driving force).
3.) Getting a college education increases earning potential, as well potential to get into positions of power to influence real change, problem is, when we get those positions of power, we are self serving and not looking out for other members of the community.
4.) The invention of the welfare system has done more harm to the African American community than people tend to realize, especially when you look at the fact that people are incentivized to live below the poverty line.
5.) The issue of African American economics is not black and white, no pun intended. It is far more complex than desegregation happened, we went to white colleges and now we’re getting pushed out of fields we once dominated. Factually speaking, an illegal immigrant is far cheaper to hire than an American citizen, they’re treated as machines, and they’re grateful for whatever money they earn. I’m a senior in college doing PreMed, and I have 5 black classmates total in 4 classes of 30-45 students, I’m the only male of the 3 of us. You can’t tell me that race has anything to do with our HIGH drop out rates. Race has nothing to do with the fact that jobs that pay $9hr on the farm are left unfilled while people sit at home unemployed waiting for an opening at the Walmart that pays $15hr. It has to do with the stereotype that black people are lazy and have an attitude problem so they’re a pain to work with, which more times than not, justified or not, we prove them right because the only time there’s ever an outburst
at work, people who are consistently tardy at work, people who catch an attitude when asked to do simple things, it’s us black people. So race is a minuscule factor in the downfall of the black economy, it’s the rotting culture
You've got a lot to learn. Start with the history of America and the Caribbean and come back to me
i feel like this is not only black issue it’s an american issue. people are fed up and would rather not work hard all day to barely survive while people get rich doing nothing special. it’s also an ego thing. In the age of social media and post-globalization there are so many diverse ways of making a living that let us be more ambitious with how we decide to make a living. As someone in college i see a divide in the black community, a small percentage of us (usually born from immigrants) end up pursuing high levels of education (engineering, medicine, law etc), and most pursue regular degrees and some still go into trades/the service industry, but there’s a large part that would rather not work at all while being very materialistic
@@streetcamguyI was born and raised in Africa, I’ve seen the effects of colonialism first hand and the “black struggle” pales in comparison to what colonialism did and is still doing to Africa. like i said, it’s a cultural issue as to why African Americans don’t succeed. could you explain to me then why immigrants come the US and do exponentially better both in terms of education and finances the black Americans?
When is everyone finally going to realize Marcus Garvey was right? There is not black prosperity under American capitalism. Working with a financial institution that is made to systematically exploit and exclude us is pointless. Majority of us will always be over represented in the negative statistics and under represented in the positive statistics. That’s by design of the capitalist system of white global hegemony.
“Kiss they boogies” got tf out me😂
This is sad. I know so many black nail technicians who are women and all of them do pedicures. Stop spreading lies on us!
There ain't nobody stopping young black men or anybody else from going into trades... tf you talking about a headlock on the industry 😂 Only person stopping anybody is themself.
@thecrt2and how much do you think going to college costs?
Yes they are stopping black people from going into trades by keeping the importance and possibility lost on them. There are so many black people kept from trades because they were never actually informed on how valuable, secure, and profitable they are and can be. So many kids resort to robbery, selling drugs, etc. because they don’t even recognize the value of a consistent, needed, reliable trade. Even when they get the money to go to a community college, because they don’t realize the value in it, they don’t even bother to think about going.

Facts...1,000%
I've been doing structured cabling since I was 17 years old and one thing I've noticed from the companies I've worked at is that it's always white men in post high position or owner of the company. It was rare when I would run into a black or Spanish owner or person in high position that's one of us. Crazy but every true. If everyone would swallow that pride and learn new skills and trades and all brought them together, we would be unstoppable
You don’t see black people in those positions because they don’t want to be in those positions and be accused of acting “white” which is the most absurd thing I’ve ever heard in my life. Do black people not realize what they are saying about themselves when they say sht like that? It’s like aspiring to be backwards.
Don’t let no one hold you down. Even your own.
its not about pride its about opportunity
@@ZaynahNicole I've seen people be given the opportunity and fail due to pride....
@@OFFICIALMEHKO good for you, this is not about PRIDE, THIS IS ABOUT A SYSTEMMMMMMMMMMMMMM thats put in place for you to fail.
@ZaynahNicole lol you can't be serious....if there were a system to keep us down in the industrial industry then you wouldn't have companies like bird electric that are black owned making 9 figures a year😂
Ngl tho plumbing is cool and all but there is more money out there that’s less physically taxing
Same like I want to do art. We did labor for like 400 years like we can do other things
One of the rules is know theyself. If they dont cater to feet then its a reason. I think deep down they know their own natures and temperament and they rather not cater ro someone similar to themselves who they know arent humble. It opens the circumstances up for unnecessary disrespect. Shes screwing the pedicurest man and now she wants to go antagonize her at work while getting her feet repaired. Things like that ....
She been at work gettng punked by Amy all day now she wanna go karate kick the lady doing her feet. Things like that...
I've learned that the advice that this color gives is always wrong. As long as you don't do what they say is best, you will succeed.
🐿: "KiSs ThEiR bOoGiEs!" took me out.
See the beautiful thing about American capitalism is, there's always options if you don't think so small. My girl used to have a gang of side businesses on top of a job, she got all tht shit without thinking it's the white devils fault. Focus on the future and the strength you have in yourself and you'll never be a victim. Regardless of what happened in the past we can't let it alter our image of the future, especially if we have a societal mindset of 1967

Can’t wait for this one 👏🏾 Please remain consistent with the OG episodes
My wife has a nail shop and she does feet and all the other black-owned nail shops We know, do too. Where did he get that info from?
Idk that dude sprinkles a little truth on a bullshit cake bruh
🐂 💩 🎂
Must of been a one off. But they ran with it.
My girl does nails an she don’t do feet for the same reason he said but she not fully against it I’m pretty sure he talkin about young woman
He's referring to the females that be on social media promoting their nail "business" which is just a desk in their living room. Which I'm not knocking. But he is mostly referring to that. Of course, if you have an actual shop, you are doing everything the Chinese do
