Everything groups like BLM and other social justice idiots do is all manufactured outrage. It's forced. Every temper tantrum they have is choreographed and every cause superficial. Make no mistake, THESE PEOPLE CARE NOTHING ABOUT BLACKS. They're in it for them. They figure if they scream racism loud enough, regardless of merit, the government will give them free handouts. If not the government, then some charity organization. Anything to get out of actually having to be a productive member of society. All of their anger and outrage is fake. Every last ounce of it. They are apathetic to the problems of other black people in the world. In Syria, blacks are still sold as actual slaves (by other blacks no less), but tell BLM that and it'll be zero fucks given.

So we can't point out the external issues mean while dealing with our own inner demons? Yes, black on black crime is high and does need to be addressed... But we have these conversations, but the black community doesn't help itself... Funneling money back into the community, showing the kids a better way, helping them get off the streets. There are programs in place to help with that... But you can still call out the systems of oppression and bigotry mean while cleaning up our community.
As a result of history, civilizations that conquered African Americans and sold them as slaves whipped out the understanding of who they were and where they come from... But at the end of the day.. it's actions not conversations that will fix this problem.
They are taught to have low self esteem at a young age. They tell their kids they have failed as a race and they blame it on white people who try and help. It's just the entitled victim mentally most of us have. We just have to be strong and set the example. We have to teach our black children that being racist isn't ok for us. We should hate or be jealous of other races. We have special programs handed to us for our success and we need to take advantage of that. We need to stop living in segregation and move to areas with more whites instead of isolating our selves and banning others from our communities.
This have been going on for a very long time. But, you are right. Black people are very focused on racism. It start with them. They hate each other more. You have black families that can't get along. You have siblings, aunts, uncles, etc. They fight one another, use excessive force against each other, and sometimes violence. So, black families or the black race has never been close or united in anyway possible. They had each other first as slaves before the white people. They do hate on each other. They would go against each other very quickly before they go against another race. I get what you are saying
Internalized racism isn’t the fault of the community, as it was the colonizers that taught the oppressed groups to think and feel that way. So while it is your personal responsibility to come to terms with your internalized racism, it is not an excuse to stop focusing on the systemic racism that exists to prevent you from “prospering” as you say.

black on black crime affects a tiny portion of the African American community and those people tend to be people who have little concern with larger social issues.
when two gangs are warring in southside chicago this is black on black crime that involves a tiny group of people and black people in pennsylvania, indiana, colorado or in other parts of illinois have little reason to care about this... same goes for anyone
racism on an institutional level is something that goes beyond locale it can be a statewide, regional or national issue.
so for example:
segregation in schools in the 1960s pertained to blacks all over the country
whereas gang violence in Detroit really only pertained to those involved in the violence or those living near itThe sad parables of The Crabs In The Bucket, or The Dogs In The Manger:

en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Dog_in_the_MangerAll I can say is that you can’t help who u love. There is only one race and that’s the human race. So I see no problem with biracial people. Besides if your African American (as I am myself) Your biracial as well because we r not 100% African. So it’s like a double edge sword
At least in respect to the larger media, it's because black people hating black people is just violence that will get some people interested in watching their show/website/papers, while white people hating black people/black people hating white people draws attention from more demographics. Doesn't matter which is more prominent or more relevant.
You act as if internalised racism in the black community just sprung out of nowhere. It was planted by colonisers.
By Israel Cohen:
""We must realize that our Party's most powerful weapon is racial tension. By propounding into the consciousness of the dark races, that for centuries have been oppressed by the Whites, we can mold them to the program of the Communist Party... In America, we will aim for subtle victory. While enflaming the Negro minority against the Whites, we will instill in the Whites, a guilt complex for the exploitation of the Negroes. We will aid the Negroes to rise to prominence in every walk of life, in the professions, and in the world of sports and entertainment. With this prestige, the Negroes will be able to intermarry with the Whites, and begin a process which will deliver America to our cause."Its funny how black people call themselves African america but whites dont call themselves european American just American.2nd, this racism card and blacks were enslaved is getting pathetic bcs guess what white people were slaves too ( slave= slav) and were also enslaved by black people... fact is slave owners had slaves bcs they had the power and money to have them race had almost nothing to do with it
I don't really know. Maybe because it's just easier to hate and blame.
This could really be a good discussion if you were not anonymous.
Because white on black is actually more worse
The white man, has commited atrocity among atrocity, just look at the worlds history..
Now, i know there are other races that have been evil, but, for the most part, it's been the white manwhy is white on white crime often ignored? Blacks aren't shooting people up in masses. As of right now, the Vegas Las shooter still holds the record for the deadliest shooting. And who was he shooting at? White people at a country music event.
Racism can also occur within the race itself such as blond hair vs brunette.
Race on race is pretty bad but so is human on humanInternalised racism occurs within all minority communities touched by colonialism. I agree that its a big issue, but its so interrelated with normal racism that it can't be treated as a separate issue.
The loudest people are white people talking about racism. Black people are trying to fix our community first. Also, racism is w big deal, so...
Because of politicool correctness.
No worries. Almost everyone I hate is white, so...
they are not of course, just you trying to ferment falsehood
