Recently there was yet another abysmal article about the terrible conditions Blacks still find themselves in this country. You can read the article here.
There
are a lot of positive things happening in the Black community too. We
have to watch these academics who paint a horrible picture of us with
skewed stats.
Here is an article I wrote with stats on Black accomplishments from reputable sources: http://kamausquips.blogspot.com/.../discover-7-amazing...
There
is a lot of stagnation now in upward mobility noted by these authors
because many decent paying jobs Blacks used to rely on have been
outsourced to cheaper labor markets in other nations. Also the Black
family income even for people with degrees averages $20,000 less a year,
a 1.3 million short fall in a life time, and in aggregate at least 10
Trillion dollars collectively within a few decades at 6% compound
interest due to racist financial inequities.
But
what is most glaring is these stat quote professionals never or ever
give solutions. Blacks only spend 7% of our income with each other. If
we spent more like 25% we could hire every unemployed Black person in
America. Now 1.9 million Black businesses hire over 1 million people.
If we would increase out spending to like 25% we could hire millions
more and help increase our real estate holdings with more business
development in our communities.
Of course these stat
quote experts would never offer supporting Black business as an option.
It just isn't in their interest. What's in their interest is to
demoralize us from being more proactive by filling us with despair.
