Their culture is intact....They did not experience generations of nazi atrocities or on going persecution interference and obstruction Today most Ashkenazi(european/khazar) Jews are considered white....Ethiopian Jews however still face Racism. When you live in a racist society, it matters not whether you consider yourself this or that....The predominant Culture Labels you and treats you according to the label given you. Racism and Bigotry are two entirely different things. Everybody experiences bigotry in one form or the other... Whites cannot experience Racism in a White Supremacy Racist Society...as a white person. We are Standing Up.....To people who traffic in stereotypes. Stereotyping is not something you can dust off.....it is prejudiced held in the minds of others to your detriment. It is okay not knowing what to say...then Listen and Understand thru Reasoning and Research Thank you..... Slavery was never abolished by USA. The Nomenclature of the Victims of enslavement have only been changed.... Today those Victims are called Prisoners Mass Incarceration is a modern day Peonage - debt slavery or more precisely - Bondage Neither slavery nor involuntary servitude, except as a punishment for crime whereof the party shall have been duly convicted, shall exist within the United States, or any place subject to their jurisdiction. https://constitution.congress.gov/constitution/amendment-13/ https://www.pbs.org/video/slavery-another-name-slavery-video/ No one is a slave....One can only be enslaved America did not enslave anyone......Racist americans did. Getting a job is not the real problem....getting paid and a living wage is. Enslaved Africans have made the greatest Contribution to America... Without African Blood Sweat and Tears Capitalism and the American experiment would not Be A primer Slavery and the rise of Capitalism

Environment plays as important a role as gene.....it dictates genes expression - epigenetics.

How so How do you know? Most Racist do not know they are being Racist. Thanks Do not understand please explain further? True we all should get paid for our work...agreed. That privilege of getting access to work and a well paying Job is a true blessing If You are real and genuine then you are in for an education If not then the Kool Aid really just taste good...Keep drinking So True

Obesity is rampant in our community due to Environmental Racism....Food Apartheid - Food Desert/Insecurity. Primary cause of Obesity is the consumption of food products with no Nutritional value, Enzymes or Fiber. I am not giving advice as I am not in any way qualified to do so....the following is for entertainment only. 1st is how much you eat 2nd is what you eat. 3rd is when you eat 4th is how much physical activity. Practice Fasting and try to not consume anything for 8 hrs at a time Try to consume mostly organic minimally process foods....the closer to nature the better - Juicing and smoothies are great largest meal in the morning and smallest meal before bed....take digestive enzymes before and after every meal. Drink water constantly especially before meals Work out(brisk walk is fine) at least 30 minutes two time a week till heart rate increase or sweat beads on your skin Do simply stretch exercise every morning and night for 10 minutes. Meditate (relaxation response technique is fine) 15 minutes daily Start a Dream Diary/Journal. See a Nutritionist....Blood work test for deficiencies. Do the above for 21 days Those are some fun Ideas that work for me.....This is not advice or recommendation Have fun

Mass Incarceration has taken many black men out of their community and family As many as one in ten African American students has an incarcerated parent. One in four has a parent who is or has been incarcerated.....As many as one in ten African American students has an incarcerated parent. One in four has a parent who is or has been incarcerated....a nationwide policy of “stop-and-frisk,” a police practice concentrated in low-income minority neighborhoods that invariably leads to the arrest and eventual imprisonment of men, African American men in particular, for low-level crimes. https://www.epi.org/publication/mass-incarceration-and-childrens-outcomes/ Your anecdotal observation does not reflect reality Common behaviors in white communities can lead to removal in minority neighborhoods, often because police are more likely to patrol there. Black parents are more likely than white ones to be reported to child protective services and more likely than their white counterparts to have their children taken from them. Common behaviors or hurdles in white communities can lead to removal in minority populations. Once taken out of their homes, the situation of children in foster care often rapidly deteriorates and paves the way for juvenile detention, followed by prison. https://www.nbcnews.com/think/opinion/police-feed-foster-care-prison-pipeline-reporting-black-parents-ncna1235133 Black children constitute 14 percent of the total child population in the United States today. However, Black children represent 23 percent of the total population in the child welfare system. Of the 37.4 percent of U.S. children who are the subject of a child protective services investigation before their eighteenth birthdays, 53 percent of those children are Black.The disproportionate representation of Black children in the child protection system can be traced back to the Reconstruction era, when apprenticeship statutes afforded local law enforcement officers and judges broad discretion to take Black children away from their families. http://fordhamlawreview.org/wp-content/uploads/2021/05/Kumor-May_Final.pdf

Yes Racism is design to keep the black man down....we concur on that. But that's not its primary purpose.....Makin Money is its real Purpose Who/whom Profits from the suffering of the Black people? True Whites have been a minority in South Africa for years... Power comes from controlling the means of Production(economy) and Communication(media). Zimbabwe is the first Africa country to try and take back its Economy......South Africa has yet to do so They are to a lesser extent.....depending on how white they are thought to be, or according to political expediency of the Times. Gangsta Rap is not Black Culture...it's a Racist commercial venture Labelled as Hip Hop. If as the sayings goes a "picture is worth a thousand words" I can reference many hollywood movies with "smacking hoes" and "robbing a n***a" - Westerns/cowboy and Games like Mortal Kombat. If you haven't Realize that Racism is One of Biggest Industry In America... then you have lived long but being drinking the "kool aid" the whole time hook line and sinker. Rap music was originally progressive but Racist studio executives thought to make money shifted direction to promoting what was label "gangsta rap" an expression of a dysfunctional maladaptation to ghetto life. the new chairman of Time Warner's music division yesterday dismissed Doug Morris, the chief executive of the division's United States operations.......Mr. Morris is one of the company's staunchest defenders of the gangsta genre, which is known for its sometimes violent and sexually degrading lyrics. https://www.nytimes.com/1995/06/22/business/the-media-business-a-defender-of-gangsta-rap-is-dismissed-at-warner-music.html I congratulate you and your family.. Black people are the hardest working people I know....from my experience. The Truth is not an excuse....If anything it is an obstacle we overcome. You don't....That's for sure. You speak only for yourself...Here and Now. Are You a Racist? Black people are under attack from people who make money from Racism... That affects me. In order for then to continue doing so "they blame the Victim" and Criminalize and Pathologize Black Culture. With billions of Dollars at their disposal it is easy to convince the questioning and recruit the willing. You have yet to show a part of Black Culture that's "ugly" Are Hollywood Action Movies ugly to you?

Racism and Poverty .....Inadequate Legal Representation - Prison Industrial Complex While Black people make up just 13.6% of the U.S. population, they accounted for 53% of exonerated people. Similarly, of the approximately 240 people the Innocence Project has helped free or exonerate, 58% are Black.......Five years ago, the organization found that innocent Black people were seven times more likely to be wrongly convicted of murder than innocent white people. The new report found that those odds have worsened slightly since, with Black people now being 7.5 times more likely to be wrongly convicted of murder and eight times more likely to be wrongly convicted of rape than white people. https://innocenceproject.org/nre-national-registry-exonerations-report-2022-racism-criminal-system/ Racism , Alienation and low teacher expectation.. in the educational system of the United States, students are dependent persons, and educators are independent persons. The system creates expectations and evaluates outcomes based upon ideas, beliefs, and values generally accepted by the dominant culture of the school......More than any other time in U.S. history, Black students are being educated by people who are not of their racial or cultural background......Research on effective teachers of Black students emphasizes, among other things, the teachers’ collective belief that Black students’ potential will not be realized in classrooms where teachers view Black students from a deficit perspective.......Compounding the problem of some White teachers’ cultural misunderstanding or indifference, additional research suggests that the gap between White teachers and Black students is exacerbated by powerful social conditioning that cultivates actual negative attitudes towards Black students https://files.eric.ed.gov/fulltext/EJ839497.pdf Please post a link to those stats as I am unable to find a correlates...so that I may properly address your query Black communities are both over policed, targeted, and under police .....Prison Industrial Complex Below is an example that is replete throughout the USA Criminal Justice System 1) In Ferguson, race had everything to do with who was stopped by police, and whom they used force against African Americans made up 67 percent of the population, but between 2012 and 2014, they made up 85 percent of the people pulled over by police. Between 2012 and 2014, black drivers were twice as likely to have their cars searched, but they were 26 percent less likely to have contraband. Between 2010 and August 2014, 88 percent of the documented use of force was against African Americans. Every time a person was bitten by a police dog, the person was black. The FPD brought certain charges almost exclusively against African Americans. For example, in 2013 black residents made up a full 95 percent of manner of walking in roadway charges, and 94 percent of all failure to comply charges. Between 2011 and 2013, African-American drivers got 72 percent of the speeding tickets when radars or laser verification were used, but when tickets were based on officers' personal observations, they got 80 percent of the tickets. 2) None of this could be explained by any differences in the rate at which people of different races violate the law It's not just that black people commit more crimes. "Our investigation has revealed that these disparities occur, at least in part, because of unlawful bias against and stereotypes about African Americans," the report concluded. https://www.vox.com/2015/3/4/8149337/doj-ferguson-report-police-racism I have seen both black and white moms lose their kids for Neglect and or Abuse.

I disagree.....I think there is a stronger correlation between education and success and between education and IQ Enthusiasm and persistence.....Cognitive Control - Denial Of Immediate Gratification Could it that Africans are Poor not because of their IQ but because European Imperialist Trading Policies of the IMF and the World Bank Forced African countries to reduced spending on Education and Local Infrastructure...SAP. Look how much money European spend on education compared to most African Countries https://www.worlddata.info/iq-by-country.php When Africans are not denied the access to education...they excel Sub-Saharan immigrants have higher educational attainment compared to immigrants overall and native U.S. citizens. In 2017, 40 percent of sub-Saharan Africans (ages 25 and over) held a bachelor’s degree or higher, compared to 31 percent of the total foreign-born population and 32 percent of the U.S.-born population. Nigerians and South Africans were the most highly educated, with 61 percent and 58 percent holding at least a bachelor’s degree, respectively; Kenyans (50 percent), Ghanaians (39 percent), Liberians (31 percent), and Ethiopians (30 percent) followed. Meanwhile, Somalis had the lowest educational attainment of all sub-Saharan Africans, with just 15 percent having graduated from a four-year college. https://www.migrationpolicy.org/article/sub-saharan-african-immigrants-united-states-2018 IQ Test are both racist and culturally biased....especially in the US Yes it is called .....Unequal Access and Under Funding Access to Funds - Money In fact, the U.S. educational system is one of the most unequal in the industrialized world, and students routinely receive dramatically different learning opportunities based on their social status. In contrast to European and Asian nations that fund schools centrally and equally, the wealthiest 10 percent of U.S. school districts spend nearly 10 times more than the poorest 10 percent, and spending ratios of 3 to 1 are common within states https://www.brookings.edu/articles/unequal-opportunity-race-and-education/ No...what really matters is Access and Funding True and they have Good reason to....afterall it was once illegal for black to learn to read, write and be sovereign of themselves If we go by Arrest Records Whites commit 69% while Black commit 27% so says the FBI https://ucr.fbi.gov/crime-in-the-u.s/2019/crime-in-the-u.s.-2019/tables/table-43/table-43a.xls African Americans are more likely than white Americans to be arrested; once arrested, they are more likely to be convicted; and once convicted, and they are more likely to experience lengthy prison sentences............This is striking in particular for drug offenses, which are committed at roughly equal rates across races. “One reason minorities are stopped disproportionately is because police see violations where they are,” https://www.sentencingproject.org/reports/report-to-the-united-nations-on-racial-disparities-in-the-u-s-criminal-justice-system/ Not mean whities... Racist whites who refuse to recognize that they are socialize to make judgements based on color - A legacy left us by our past as a Racist Society

I think it works for both equally and if anybody has an edge its women....men in general are not particularly choosy. Most men are not attracted to women solely for their looks but rather more likely their sexual accessibility or availability. Ugly usually means someone who is unhealthy or damage in some way even malformed/infirmed(unhealthy aging)...a healthy person truly cannot really be ugly. Oprah's Wealth is part of her Charismatic appeal. Disease is Ugly but people usually are not Maybe they do exist....please post a picture of one such individual if you can? Unattractive yes.

On a somewhat Esoteric level .... True Beauty will be accepted across all cultural and racial lines...If it is Proportionate and Wholesome (bodymind and spirit) Beauty as in Physical Attractiveness (phenotype) is based on Symmetry Balance and Harmony ....Phi - The Golden Ratio 1:1.62 Personal Charisma and Charm can (and will) supplant Physical Attractiveness in the Mind of the Onlooker no matter the Phenotype.

Luck is Perception, Focus and Expectation with a little bit of Karma.

To Loosely Paraphrase a former US President.....What Can you do for Africa?

I think I was trying to find links that proves Black Communities are Over Policed which in turns biases or slants Arrests Records as well as that African Americans and Euro Americans are prosecuted differently for the same Charges.
