>> why do so many black people (from Africa and the Caribbean) keep moving here?
I had an organ transplant in South Florida 5 months ago. Most of my nurses were black - foreign born blacks. Men and women. Haiti. Jamaica. Cuba. Barbados. Trinidad. They were great! Best hospital care I’ve ever had.
My post-transplant nurse coordinator is from Ghana (West Africa). He’s here getting his PhD and will return home to become a university professor.
Yup - no opportunity here ...
“The worst enemy that the Negro have is this white man that runs around here drooling at the mouth professing to love Negros and calling himself a liberal, and it is following these white liberals that has perpetuated problems that Negros have. If the Negro wasn’t taken, tricked or deceived by the white liberal, then Negros would get together and solve our own problems. I only cite these things to show you that in America, the history of the white liberal has been nothing but a series of trickery designed to make Negros think that the white liberal was going to solve our problems. Our problems will never be solved by the white man.”

I always read these stories, and it’s like, “what?”. She took out an adjustable rate mortgage when she was 25 and didn’t really have the income for it. A class action suit named her a “victim” of predatory lending. But she held on to the condo until just last year. So what gives? Sounds like she lucked out. Then she talked to another guy who got pulled over the police for running a stop sign, but was just given a warning. Sounds like he lucked out too. What’s the problem?
>> Everywhere I have ever worked, management was falling all over themselves to hire black men and women.
You have no idea Sir - no idea. After falling all over themselves, they’l bend over backwards to assure success of their employee.
One more thing, “Khadijah” is an Arabic name, “cultural misappropriation,” perhaps?

RENIQUA ALLEN
WRITER. PRODUCER. JOURNALIST.
Wow! Writer, producer, journalist. And a new book coming out. Wonder how many struggling millennials with white sounding names never made it to the big leagues like Reniqua?

You’re black - get over it.
Most people don’t give a care about your skin color.
If you are a good worker you will find your niche and you will prosper.
People do care about you being a whiner and sniveler and playing the race card.
Get that chip off your shoulder, Stop looking for excuses and stop blaming others.
We need to spend twice as much on the same programs. I am sure everything will kick in after another 4 or 5 generations.
[ Reniqua Allen ]
Don’t worry honey. Obama helped make sure it wasn’t for anyone.
Exactly!
No sympathy from me. Work hard . Pay your bills. Stay out of trouble.
No matter who you are those are words to live by
I know several black millennials who get what the democrats are all about, and are fed up.
Hispanic millennials are another story.
Read news report several years ago that the rats planned on replacing the black as their chosen ones with hispanics.
Blacks are noticing. One told me this weekend “I’d be willing to move to Virginia just to get a Gadsden, “Don’t Tread on Me” license plate. They understand freedom vs. slavery better than we do.
Black mothers put that chip on their shoulder when they give them names like Reniqua.
Some wallow in the past and are the perpetual victims. They have more opportunity than white, Christian, heterosexual males.
