Honestly, will never happen. They come out with new Jordan and Lebron shoes to often to save money for passage to another country. And I’m half serious.

Perhaps the question could be framed better.

What countries are doing an awesome job with race relations?

What countries could we look to to model our own efforts after? What policies are they utilizing? What are the results in hard data of those policies?

Why is it so hard for humans to not get along? To respectful? Be peaceful?

Heck if you were able to get enough educated black Americans to commit to going to a specific African country they might be able to make the country decent

Nigeria actually wants to do this. Nigerian Americans are among the most educated if not the most educated group in America. There was a big brain drain in the 90s and if all of those people returned they could certainly help solve a lot of problems and push the country forward.

People dont like people that are different, that will never change.

Black Americans just need to concentrate on family. 7.5% of Black married couples live in poverty. Thats less than the total white populations poverty rate.

You are a racist. You might as well admit to it

He asked a very good and valid question. For centuries when people felt oppressed they look for and move to a better situation. Russians escaping Stalin, Germans (especially Jews) escaping Hitler, look at how many people are trying to get in the US from China and South/Central America.

Now I do not know you, so my opening statement may or may not be true, however that statement is what our society has fallen back on, whether it is true or not.

i didn't have to move to another country, i moved to flower mound texas it's part of DFW. it's 89% white, 7% asian, 4% black, but with our embarrassingly high $167,000.00 household median income those blacks are affluent.

don't get me wrong i have nothing against blacks. i just prefer to live without the dysfunction that always accompanies large numbers of black people residing in a given area.

The welfare state ruined the progress of the AA community. It’s been so detrimental to them. It’s a constrained system that has them fighting for 15 minimum wage instead of truly flourishing. It’s a system that tells them they aren’t good enough and one that keeps them oppressed because Democrats keep telling them they are.

Why would black Americans leave their own country? Many black families have been here since the beginning. They should just leave? No, the problem is yours, not theirs. You're more than welcome to emigrate to Europe if living with blacks is a problem for you.

part of the "discussion" that blacks say they want on race


A lot of these people don't want a discussion. A discussion is both sides talking and listening to each other. They want to talk while you listen and accept everything they say without question. They want to lecture you, not have a discussion with you.

Blacks have no one to blame for their plight but themselves. The smart ones get it.
Nothing has changed for them since the 60’s and yet they keep buying what liberal whites and liberal blacks keep telling them.

Every democrat run city is a shite hole and it’s thee white and blacks fault, but all the black conservative are uncle toms. There still a slave to the slave master Democrats wake up and change things

Problem with that is most of the conservative have gotten the frick out of dodge. It’s not my fault it’s theirs don’t be ignorant any more

Why do some Americans insist on being called African-Americans when they have never been to Africa in their life?

If you're born here, you're an American. Period.

Why insist on being called something different, something wrong, when you want equality?

77% of AA kids are born out of wedlock.

The minute a black person or family hits a level of income that allows them to leave that community, many do. They don’t stay behind to offer an example for adults and kids in that neighborhood. This is why Cleo Fields type guys live behind a gate next to CCL rather than in the neighborhood he represents

So 77% of kids grow up in a single parent household, and a large percentage of AA who hit the American Dream evacuate the black community

But it’s my white privilege that needs to be addressed? Got it

Don't accuse the OP of anything. He brought up a legitimate point.

By the way, most white nationalist organization (the dictionary definition) effectively want that. A white ethnostate either by deportation or serperation.

I say make a deal:

Work out some amount of reparations, or advance welfare/social security payments in exchange for costs of expatriating to other countries. Have arrangements with these countries who are willing to take them in. Only stipulation is they cannot regain or establish residency of any kind back in the U.S. It's similar to when you go work overseas and stop paying US Federal Taxes: you can only be in the US for 2-3 weeks out of a year.

Spot on.

The reason is because the amount of changes needed to fix a broken community require literal decades of self sacrifice at the expense of your own efforts.
