The “American” Dream?
I usually stay away from posting my opinions or ranting online but that recent post actually pissed me off. Racism and hatred, for whatever unjust reason, led to the dismantle of a thriving African-American community, which was most likely more prosperous that surrounding White communities. Imagine that, a THRIVING African American community. Nowadays African-American communities are synonymous with ghettos, hoods, blocks, or whatever term associated with less than desirable living conditions. So when a COMMUNITY of African-Americans share the same goal of education, enterprise, and most importantly uplift, it is burned down. The chase of the “American Dream” literally goes up in flames. Fast-foward to present day. Where most successful African-Americans are known within the entertainment industry. Music, Media, Movies, and Sports, all of which are confined under various contracts and obligations to a higher power; owner, record label, director, etc. Granted there are African-Americans in good-standing within the hierarchy. For example Sean Combs, Rick Ross, Michael Jordan, Spike Lee, etc. I am NOT taking anything away from these brothers, hell I commend them, but rarely do you hear about African Americans who OWN corporations, law firms, banking firms (never in a million years), etc. I know the “American Dream” is less favorable for certain people in comparisons with others. I’m pretty sure alot of people do, so when I hear certain people say “You guys did this to yourselves” or “They don’t want to help themselves” it pisses me the fuck off. Granted there are lazy people in this world but don’t make a statement of that magnitude without knowing history. I guess that post hits me even harder because I’m attempting to start up my own little thing but that’s beside the point. The “American Dream” may not be for us, but fuck it we’re gonna try and get it anyway.
Damn this got long, alright peace.
And people (you know who) wonder why there is such a lack of black enterprise. Smh shit actually pisses me off.
BLACK WALL STREET is not a record label started by The Game.
Black Wall Street was the most prosperous black community in America during the 1920’s located in Tulsa, Oklahoma. It was known as “Little Africa” or “Black Beverly Hills”, a prime example of racial nationalism. To put into perspective of how money flowed in Black Wall Street, a dollar took 365 DAYS to leave the community, now a dollar leaves an African American Community every 15 MINUTES. The community had hundreds of businesses all negro owned and their motto was “To educate every child”.
June 1, 1921 white supremacists bombed BLACK WALL STREET and killed over 3000 people and destroyed over 600 businesses. 21 churches, 21 restaurants, 30 grocery stores, a hospital, bank, post office, and most schools were destroyed. The dead were buried in unmarked graves. It wasn’t till 1997 that Oklahoma decided to pass the “1921 Race Riot Reconciliation Act” which provided decedents of that area a free college education.
SMH AT AMERICAN HISTORY
I usually don’t reblog post concerning history, but wow.
