Why are black people so racist against other blacks?
I know people will downvote this or not take it serious, but the short answer is slavery. Competition during slavery made mulattos or light skin blacks superior to darker blacks. This mindset has been pass through the generations. My grandmother who is half black and half houma indian was told by her parents along with her 9 other siblings not to marry a dark skin person. She rebelled and married the blackest man in Lafourche Parish. Things like brown paper bag test were tools used to create a divide in the black community.

It's like you have to fit into this little box of what a black person is supposed to be, otherwise you're not a real black person or you're an Uncle Tom.
Well this is something totally different. Black people have one code its us versus everybody else. When you go against that then its a problem. We may fight each other and hate each other but if somebody else is fricking with you oh its on. This is also something that was birth post slavery. Growing up we used to have a saying....
" A fight A fight A black and A white. If the black don't win I'm fasho bout to jump in" It is kind of a brothers keeper thing. Could be viewed as racist but why would blacks care if someone called us racist when most believe we are the ultimate victims of racism.

What is something you believe that is concerning towards black people that you will never say out loud to another black person?
Nothing. I mentor at a school in New Orleans. I preach to them about being the best person they can be. Shock society be the rose from the concrete. So if I see something detrimental to their well being I say it.

ive always held the opinion that, while racism exists on a micro individual level, that the idea of institutional racism is somewhat of a misnomer. that when we start talking about shite that broad, we are really dealing with societies bias against poor people. i really dont have any true data to look at if anything other than poor people, across the races, generally have a shite life with shite prospects and poor people are more likely to commit crime.
what are your thoughts on that? and what do you think that we can do as a society to end that bias and shorten the poverty gap between the minorities, african american community specifically i guess, and white people

wife and i recently toured many of the plantation homes on river road...history books (i went to school in texas and arkansas) do not touch the real horrors of slavery along the mississippi river...I think it was at the Laura Plantation home during the tour that was the roughest one to hear...it sucked...I never realized that Abe Lincoln exempted the mississippi river valley slaves from the Emancipation Proclamation during the war...and then the Freemens bureau basically screwed the slaves by making them "owe the company store"...so they really weren't free...sucks...

The EP was definitely a political move, not an altruistic one.

I've only ever been in one fight my entire life, and it was pretty lame. Most of the time I end up having a beer with the person I was beefing with
Speaking of which, drinks on me if you're ever in the Alamo City

I only made the first 8-9 pages but looking at time/post count, has it occurred to anyone there has to be money somewhere in this concept?

YOu make some valid points.
Yes I believe institutional racism is real and do exist.
The bigger problem however the class war. Why as people we allow 1% of the population to control 95% plus of the countries GDP. The people who holler about wealth distribution in regards to the 1% are so brainwashed. The problem now that is the middle class is burden with supporting this country. I pray that we get to a flat 10% tax rate for everyone. And if the government can't make it off of that 10% then they need to learn to cut back like everyone else.
