TO ALL MY BLAK FOLK AND PEOPLE THAT IS INVOLVED WITH BLAK CULTURE, IS THIS TRUE?

PEEP:

The Difference...
> Contrary to what many may think, there is a difference between Black
> people and Niggas.
>
> Black people spend thousands of dollars on higher education and see
> the value of owning real estate Niggas spend thousands of dollars on
> "getting high" and are concerned only with keepin' it real.
>
> When Black people have children, they try to get better paying jobs to
> make sure they can support their child. When Niggas have children,
> they change jobs to avoid paying child support.
>
> When Black people are faced with hards times, they eliminate the
> unnecessary luxuries and make do with what they have. When Niggas are
> faced with hard times, they sponge off of family rather than
> disconnect the digital cable, beeper, cell phone and internet service.
>
> When Black people have children, they invest in college plans, piano
> lessons and braces. When Niggas have children they invest in designer
> clothes, platinum jewelry and mini-Air Jordans
>
> When Black people have children, they buy a bigger house to give each
> child their own space. When Niggas have children, they kick the oldest
> one out of the house to make room for the new one.
>
> Black people watch out for their neighbors and understand the
> importance of strong neighborhoods. Niggas watch their neighbors, and
> look for an opportunity to take advantage of their weaknesses.
>
> Black people appreciate the sacrifices made for them by their families
> to help them get ahead in life. Niggas will sacrifice their families
> and steal from them in order to get their next high.
>
> Black people appreciate expensive jewelry, designer clothes and nice
> cars but, realize that they don't make the person. Niggas define
> themselves by their designer clothes, platinum jewelry and nice cars.
>
> Black people will know the people at their local bank branch by first
> name. Niggas will know the people at the neighborhood Check Cashers
> and liquor store by first name.
>
> Black people see hard working brothers and sisters with legitimate
> jobs as potential mates. Niggas won't even look at you if you're not a
> Hustler, Baller or a Bad Ass B**ch.
>
> Black people will work hard to be innovative or to build something out
> of something. Niggas work hard at trying to get something for nothing.
>
> Black people work hard all week, then go out on the weekend to relax
> and chill at the few Black night spots we have. Niggas relax and chill
> all week and then go out on the weekends and work hard to mess up the
> few Black night spots we have.
>
> In the words of Chris Rock,
> I love Black people... but I can't stand Niggas!!
>
>
>
> Do you know the difference and which one are you ???

My opinion is this isnt helping anyone. It does more to divide than to actually help out our people. Yea it touches on some truths, but we already know these things. I just dont like this Black vs. Nigga argument too much. EDJ, you asked for responses from "brothas and sistas" well what happened to these terms? It seems like We dont relize that we are family. Instead of saying shit like "IM black, and thats a NIGGA problem" we should say shit like "The brother needs some help so ima help him". I dont know bro, I'm just trying to DO something for our peolpe instead of just talking or pointing fingers. So I guess I'm a BLACK NIGGA.

I agree that a lot of those things can apply to people of all races. But it is sad how true those statements can be. How can you live in the projects but have a fly ass ride on 22's? That's dumb as hell. Or what about those people who have bad credit so they get their cable & phone turned on in their kids' names so the kids already have fucked up credit before they're even in the 6th grade? My brother's mom did that to him. That's triflin as hell. I can't stand people like that. I also can't stand people who complain that they can't do shit with their lives. But how many of those people are the ones who fucked around in school & didn't think about what would happen when they graduate (if they graduate at all)? People need to grown the fuck up & take responsibility for themselves instead of claiming to be 'products of their environments.'
