You are not a black person that does not rise up to protest “racism” for the guilty black male that got his ass kicked by the police--you know the one that is in jail because he just killed two “black” women and their “black” children.
Of course the hypocrites among us couldn’t care less about the murdered “black” people, because all that matters is that the “black” murderer does not get his ass kicked by “white” people. As though he doesn’t deserve it. The other thing is: even if he got his ass kicked only because he’s “black”, if he had NOT murdered people (any people) he would not have been in jail in the first place.
But yet again, the “ protect the black male at any cost” curse strikes again. Protect him so that he can pillage the village—your village, as in: rape, drugs (sold to your other children), molestation, murder, torture, stealing, car jacking, and fathering children he does not know or care about. You name it, all the things you claim you don’t like but your ignorance and weak mindedness deludes you into thinking that you must protect the “black” perpetrators of this destruction because they are “black” and only because they are “black”.
So you black hypocrite’s can get off of the: “only white people do stuff like that” tangent. You’re lying and you know it!
You do not live in a house that is encompassed by security bars because “white people” wants something in your house. Nine times out of ten your security bars are to keep your own sons, nephews, grandsons, stepsons and godsons out—you know, the sons that: you protected at all cost—the one's that were too cute to chastise--the one's that's terrorizing you now--the one's that will slit your throat at the blink of an eye. You know, the cute one's, that can do no wrong.
The one's you aided and abetted in pillaging the village because:
"My baby boy can do no wrong"
"He just got caught up with the wrong crowd"
"its somebody else’s fault"
"The “white man” is trying to destroy my baby boy"
No you destroyed your baby boy, when you stood by him in wrongness when he was two years old. You set the stage for and contributed too the village pillagers. Are you proud of yourself? Are you happy? Have you shown "white people" something? Other than the fact that if you fail to do what is "right" as opposed to what is "black" you will in essence fund your own destruction and find yourself held up in your own personal prison that you call home, afraid of you own son.
Don't get upset, it's the truth face it, and then move forward to correct those things you have done to contribute to this madness. Like, sitting your son down and saying to him:
“I was wrong in protecting you when I knew you were wrong. I realize I did not help you, our people, the world or myself by doing so, and because I know that I failed to instill the importance of taking responsibility for your actions it has caused me to carrying a heart wrenching guilt with me throughout life. And that guilt is so hard to bear that it caused me to continue to bail you out of jail because I know I didn't do right by you.
But now I realize that until I take the steps to at least try to rectify my mistakes things will not get better for you, me, our people or the world. So from this point on I will not bail you out of jail, I will not stand by you in wrongness, I will not continue to say that the "white man" is trying to get you when I know that it is your own actions that get you in trouble.
You're my child and I love you, but I realize that to truly love you I must hold you and myself accountable. And I am asking you to forgive me for not having the foresight and courage to teach you the importance of self-control and responsibility. But if we are going to have a healthy relationship, a better community and a better world we must first start by being better people, and this is where I need to start in my life”.
Topics you will also need to discuss if he is going to improve his condition and become an asset to the world:
Employment
Getting his own residence
Taking care of the children he has fathered
Education
Dressing: letting go of the “thug” look i.e. sagging.
Understand, as children in the formative years (from birth to age 4) they must be taught everything that we want them to know. So if you did not teach him how to be a responsible father you cannot expect him to know how to be one. Therefore you will have to take him step by step in order to do so.
Basically he is still the 2-year-old toddler that did not get what he needed to grow up and be a responsible adult. So to just tell him to "man up" or "be a man" is not enough because he really does not know how. You will literally have to teach him, provided he is willing.
In addition, you must have undaunting patience to correct your mistakes, so don't get perturbed when he rejects the idea of responsibility because all he knows is irresponsibility and blaming others for his self-induced reality--because you taught him that. So in all fairness you really cannot be mad at him, but nonetheless he must be held accountable or you will be burying him soon--or he'll kill you before you get to bury him.
And even if he rejects you and your efforts to help him be responsible, you may still feel bad about not being there in the first place, but all you can do at this point is earnestly attempt to correct your mistake. Because if you do not try, when the streets take him, the guilt will taunt you and ride you to your grave.
So if he rejects moral correction you simply must understand, that your moral obligation must then shift to what is best for society at large. And if that means turning his guilty, murderous, molesting and destructive ass in to the "cops" then so be it. Because the way I see it, there are only two types of people inhabiting the planet; you are either an asset or a liability. And if he is a liability he must be put in check otherwise he will destroy everything and everyone in his path. And since he is a product of you, you must be the first one to put him in check. An easy task when you factor in that not even you are exempt, because he will eventually destroy you too.
This scenario plays out both microcosmically and macrocosmically (I'm not defining this, get a dictionary and look it up--then figure it out. That will give you something constructive to do).

A Self-destructive Mentality
Welcome to the: You’re Not Black Enough Blog.
As black folk we have unfortunately come to believe that to “be black” is to live a life of poverty, crime, community blithe and total victim hood. This erroneous thinking has caused us to develop a "crab in the basket" tactic designed to keep progressive blacks from wanting to live up to their full potential – in order to deflect the light from shining on the large portion of black folk that can do, but won't do.
This blog, created by a back female will explore and expose through her eyes, the many ways this very destructive mentality is killing us as a people, and how it adversely affects the entire world in which we live. You probably have grasped by now that the content on this blog will in essence cut to the very core of what is ailing black folk as a people.
In other words it will embarrass some, constructively hurt some, anger most of which they will say: “you’re not better than me”, infuriate others into crying “sell out” and impulse most, to more "white people" finger pointing, yet another group will say "this is really a white persons blog". And we must not forget the notorious Jerry Springer style "you don't know me" group.
For the pseudo degreed among us, meaning those that use, having a degree to try to make others feel inadequate, so they can further delude themselves into believing that they are superior which is the tactic used to hide the fact that they too have low self-esteem.
This group suffers from "mis-educated black hypocrisy" they will address every situation by first asserting their degree-ism. As though one must have a degree to know what they are talking about, and they will always demand to see your credentials, because "unless you have a degree, you couldn't possibly know what you're talking about".
This group is quite convoluted, because they possess the intelligence to make a real difference among our people but because they believe a degree alone is the universal panacea they erroneously believe two things:
First, they can somehow escape the association of the "black plight" through their degree.
Secondly, that they couldn't possibly play a role in the problem, because they have a degree.
Another group will be highly offended because they are nothing like what is posted on this blog. Then I say to you: "join me" in exposing the stench that is killing us. And finally, the smallest group will be those that will rejoice at these postings because they feel the same way.
In the end this blog and it's content will be a catalyst to those that were unable to see what was right before their eyes. This is about healing. And just as when one's broken leg is healing the process itself does not feel good, but I doubt if anyone has ever said, "I don't want the cast put on my broken leg because healing does not feel good".
The quality of our lives as a people is contingent upon us facing these very facts about our condition. So if it causes you to experience anger, embarrassment, sadness or happiness GOOD. Because until we address the hypocrisy and the false sense of victim hood that plagues our communities we will continue to implode.
None-the-less, and without apology this blog will expose the generally unconsidered, fearfully unspoken and totally unadulterated truth.
I would like to add, that the “you’re not black enough” tactic is not just limited to the seriously impoverished. This mentality begins with generational impoverishment, and moves on to those with annual incomes into the millions. For if it were not true, we would not hear so-called black stars (Vivica Fox) saying:
“The racist cop arrested me for drunk driving because I’m black”.
Never considering the far-fetched possibility that she may have actually gotten arrested for drunk driving because she was drunk. So her arrest had nothing to do with being "black", but everything to do with her "irresponsible behavior".
To say that she was arrested because she is black is nothing more than a feigned victim game used as a smoke screen so that she can continue to destroy herself under the guise of racism. When the real issue is the reasons why she needs to be drunk in the first place, and then risk her life and the lives of others doing so, when she has more than enough money to pay a driver. Sounds like a state of self-destruction grounded in pure unhappiness, and the dangerous cry for help.
In the real world, in order to prove beyond all doubt that you were arrested for drunk driving because you are "black". Logic would demand that you would first have to NOT BE DRUNK i.e. GUILTY. It is this type of backward thinking that is killing us as a people, and this blog will courageously call out and put on the square. So as you peruse through, and post comments, keep three things in mind:
1. All Are Welcome
2. The truth may hurt, but it's the only thing that can help
3. Once the consciousness is raised, you can never go back. You can pretend to not know it, but you can never un-know it.
So Hold On, because it's time for a paradigm shift. . .
