@@we_are_dust3813 But we aren't talking about the UK. The problem with the initial statement is that it is a common one used throughout history to deflect discussing the treatment of black people in America. If this were a video about the UK and people started saying this is not an issue of the UK what about people in XYZ with the problem, it is just meant to deflect away from discussing THIS problem. We'd never have a discuss about problems if everyone deflected away from every problem instead of discussing that problem.
@@dewilew2137 hi 👋🏼 What i mean is, your comment says it's 2024 but it is now 2025, further confirming your point. And you are quite right, that things have changed very little. Apologies if I was not clearer.
And Aboriginal australia lives like this today but even worse wit no running water n no Air con in places wat reach 50 degrees celsius. Yes they sleep ot side there homes as its cooler n thats were the cooking facilities are ( open fire. So dont think you ppl had it that hard i can assure you that there r many ppl lives worse of heir in Au in 2025.
Who tf are you talking to? Who are you even talking about?? No one said anything about who has worse living conditions. There’s no competition. I don’t understand how you’d even come to this assumption based on this video alone. Your comment is completely irrelevant, and you come across as shortsighted, presumptuous, smug, and uneducated. Anyway, get back to me when any other ethnic group has been kept, bred, and sold as chattel, has built a global superpower and its powerful economy with their unpaid labor, then subsequently struggled for another 150+ years just to be seen as human, let alone to be treated like equal citizens under the law with full rights and protections. We’re still waiting on that. Oh, and just so you know, most Black Americans do not live like that. Housing projects do exist, but most of them aren’t dilapidated and crumbling. While Black and Brown folks are over-represented in government housing, most of us live in owned or rented homes or apartments in suburbs, cities, and rural towns. Black Women especially are doing well, and making great lives for ourselves. We are now the most well educated demographic in America, and our rates of home ownership and wealth generation are exponentially higher than that of the previous generation. There are a small number of cities in America that infamously have poor water quality (or other issues like contamination, pollution, poor air quality due to wildfires, etc.). Flint, Michigan was the one that people heard about 10 years ago when that crisis occurred. It has since been corrected, and Flint has clean water, thanks to brand new copper pipes, and optional tap filters in every home. Oh, and lastly, Flint is a diverse town with a relatively even white and non-white population, so the water crisis didn’t solely affect Black people. Class/socioeconomic status determines standard of living and quality of life far more than race does, thankfully.
This is a joke. Australia AND the United States must be poor, dying societies because instead of fighting to make it better for both groups, you are playing who has it worse! Totally not a sign of nations that are strong. BOTH would be working to make it better for both, not pitting one poor group against another. Shame on you!
@@dewilew2137 My point exactly! This competition thing is just used to denigrate the experiences of those in the video. Terrible people play the competition over who had/has it worse game. Why not improve things for both groups?
Such a great show
Thank you for ❤
Love your shows❤
Keep um coming please love these gems ❤❤

This has always been going on. It isn't a white/black thing. Would you feel better if they were Irish.
It was a black/white thing in the U.S. There were no RED LINING laws after WWII pushing Irish people into poverty in the U.S.
Well said
@@JohnMiller-oz7gv there are plenty of examples from the UK too on Grove, from North to South, so much poverty...

So how much have things ACTUALLY changed for blacks since 1970? This is 2024.
2025, but yes. Quite.
What exactly do you mean?
@@we_are_dust3813 What do you mean exactly?
