Black people not loving being Black is our downfall.
According to this thread, you are wrong. But generally, although it's a good statement...I think you are also wrong. The downfall is the amount of hatred towards the white man and vice versa; and the lack of effort to get rid of it.
i couldnt disagree with you more.
What? So you love white people, and we love you too?
No.
in fact i don't like white people...but that has nothing to do with our downfall...

Thank you. That's why I was like what does that have to do with what I said.
It doesn't have anything to do with your downfall? ****. White people OWWWWWWWN this country, and before God as their witness would they not only refuse to hand it over to African-Americans, but they also wouldn't see that yall do any better as time progresses.
Um, newsflash, black people are the reason for their downfalls, and I think that this fact is especially obvious when you've dealt with young black kids in the hood. Not every little black boy can be a rapper-slash-actor, basketball player, NFL star, etc. Too many black kids aren't aware of all the options that are available to them, or just don't give a damn. Their parents aren't smart enough to put a book in their hands instead of a damn video game controller. And these kids grow up, no skills, no goals, average intelligence... and they're supposed to amount to something above average? Black people are our on downfall because either we don't care about whats going on with our kids (collective responsibility) or don't share our resources whether it be time, money, experience or connections...
Basic truths

To add in or alter or whatever...It's ALOT of real smart kids here. They just don't have the motivation though. They don't try, they don't see why it matters because they haven't been shown the big picture by the right person.

See that's the problem. We think that most Blacks are living in the hood and that we aren't excelling. And even Blacks in the"hood" are doing good for their means. Every race has a portion that are the "bad seeds". And people also need to get it out of their heads that only "us" in the hood aren't living right morally and financially all the time. But don't let media make you think that's what we are all about. We have the same notion that Dr. Cosby has and what people fail to realize is that Dr. Cosby spoke from personal opinion not from fact or a study he did.
When we as a race stop thinking negatively about our own people, we can excell even greater as a people. They're are suburban parents buying their children Benz's and their child is smoking pot and taking "X".
