We have become complacent..and enertia has set in us like rigor mortis...

Now, some of us do feel like the I Am Legend show/movie concept lbut like we're the last Black(s) on Earth...

I think we are the true Foster Children of AmeriKKKa...
I don't know if we will ever have another Black Wall Street like turn of the century Tulsa Oklahoma days had before the destruction by YT's...but we have ample enough nouveau Black "Rich" folks who could easily start the ball rolling..IF we trusted each other enough to not THINK that we were going to phuck up the plans or get "ripped-off" by some shady Black business practices....

I don't think in general and collectively Blacks THINK we could unite to do this on our own...I think we have a hidden ,inbred need to believe that only thru white support can we do anything of this magnitude...I think we still suffer from lack of racial and cultural confidence in Black leadership and the causes we may/may not support...

If things change it usually always start with a very few trailblazers..never the masses...The masses usually are naysayers UNTIL A CAUSE BECOMES "POPULAR"...
