You answered the question theoretically.More so that,it's easier for you guys to have access to pc and internet,so you pple are free to navigate,surf the web etc.
I Could be called insensitive, but if I needed a job and a place to stay, I would not be on the computer, EXCEPT, to place Applications, to Known, JOB SITES.
I'm on my computer, because gawd has allowed me to communicate. nothing more or less. I crave good conversation, new experiences, BROADER THOUGHTS, then my own.
But not to be calculating, manipulative, or to bring shame to anyone.
The world is, what it is, nothing more or less, and I wish, I could confirm, that what is sent, is sent to the right people for the right reason. But I can't.
Even here with Katrina (the hurricane that destroyed New Orleans) we could not be guaranteed that the money or our own government, would help our own people!!!!!!!! HERE.
THEORETICALLY, the only right answer is to send it, and hope for the BEST. But if we can't be hands on here. how can we be EFFECTIVELY!!!!!!! HANDS ON, over there.
OLAMILOVE, like you of us, we hear what they want us to know, be the news black or white.
Your on the ground over there!!!! you see, only what we hear about, once or twice a week ,on our news channels. But everyday, Even though the PROCESS is different, I see black baby's dying, black men Dying, black women DYING, and some of them, are right here on my BLOCK. And even though, I wish to help. Some of those very same groups (Charity's) are over here doing the same thing, showing the AGONY, to get the money, then taking it somewhere else, to help somebody in another state, and they are BLACK.
THEORETICALLY, the money should stay in THAT NEIGHBORHOOD, and help them first, but the logic of some of our leaders is, we can do MORE, over there, then HERE,on my Block!!!!!.
And when we go to check on what they are doing, with OUR MONEY, you know what they say!!!!!!!. WE NEED MORE,WE DON'T HAVE ENOUGH,meanwhile, my family on the block, has to worry about gangs, police,disease, corrupt governments, and of course, the ring leader of all this TRASH, BIG BUSINESS!!!!!!!!.
Now I know you are saying, what the HELL is Dolphins point, I know he ain't saying that, he has it worst, then us, in Africa. NO!!!
I'm saying, to the Both of us, AFRICANAS and your American brothers and sisters,;UNTIL the LIGHT COMES ON, FOR THE BOTH OF US, IN OUR HEADS!!!!!!!, AND WE FINALLY GET IT. NOBODY'S GONNA WIN.
We can't even trust our own government and Charity's to handle our own business, let alone trust each other to do the right thing.
How can we even begin to trust YOU.
And do something EFFECTIVE, for both our people!!!
One more thing, this back and forth about pain, our pain is more mental, then physical. It's about self hate, on every level you can Imagine.
I don't think anybody can really realize the pain, we go through in America, just read some of the relationship threads on any black site!!!!!.
Don't judge!!!!!!, just read!!!!!.
I betcha the first thing that comes out your mouth is, I don't mine the help, but I hope it ain't from that mother Fucker!!!!!!!!!
I can read better them him or her, I have more respect, for myself then him or her, and most IMPORTANTLY, I'm not gonna blow as many OPPROTUNITYS, to help myself, as that MOTHER!!!!!!!!! thats how bad it is.
Now don't get me wrong, we have the talent, more then enough to help both sides of the ATLANTIC. But as it stands now, if you were to come over right now with your back ground, you would have more opprotunitys, then the average BLACK PERSON. And it's set-up with in the system for us to FAIL.
First by giving substandard education.
Second, by demonizing us.
Third by selling that Image around the world.
Fourth; making us pay twice as much on average, for everything.
Example. I can get a loan for 120,00o, for 30 years!!! at about 6%, according to my credit score!!!But, I will probably get one for about 8% if not higher, because the system prays on the have nots, be it by education, or simply color,.
I will have to pay more, for not knowing more about my rights. Even if I know them, they hope enough of us DON'T KNOW them!!! and thats how they get over on us!!!.
They also give us enough, as a group, so that we get LAZY, and even argue with another black people, who trying to correct the problem!!!.
So we have DEEP TRUST ISSUES, thats even worst, with our OWN PEOPLE, Then WHITES!!.
I'm not saying this, to pick a fight about apples and oranges, but i work hard for my money, and I could send it, I'm not going to lie!!!!!, but I'm not sending my money, just to support a corrupt warlord, and have two hundred, out of three million eat. Because the warlord wanted possitive PRESS, so he could get more money!!!.
