The Status of African Americans in America:From #2 to #4

It is about time that we as African Americans face the fact that we were brought here on the bottom of the slave ships... to serve and not be served... to bring prosperity to the dominant white, male landowners... not to be prosperous... We were never meant to be free (not subject to the control or domination of another) and certainly not equal (to be seen and treated the same as everyone else... without exception; regardless of race, ethnicity, sex or socio-economic status).

We will never attain full equal status.

Other groups, many of whom came here centuries after us, have risen above us in every area of society... In fact, most have even taken over our communities... becoming wealthy and thereby politically powerful, through our giving our hard-earned dollars to their businesses...while getting nothing tangible in return.

When are we going to stop looking to the dominant race, and a government controlled by them, and their white supremacist ideology... to lift us to a place of true equality? Capitalism requires that there be a bottom class to make its system work effectively... a system that makes the rich and powerful, richer and more powerful... while keeping the masses, poorer, weaker and more dependent on the few that actually rule this country... the oligarchs and the filthy-rich moguls that run the business conglomerates around this country. 

If any meaningful change will happen for our people, as a whole, it must be through out making it happen. Each of us must set the course to our own prosperity and freedom, through self-determination.
