Others don't want to give up the superiority complex (too much psychological pleasure to blanket their insecurities). You're right - just by existing, you're screwing with people: I say "keep screwing them". BTW, it doesn't end after school either. I remember being asked to formally prove my background at a prior job with a transcript request, before I got the position: Keep in mind that my co-workers who happened to be white, didn't have to meet this requirement.

Fuck all this bullshit! We need to go back to our roots and stop trying to follow the Jones. First we gotta be proud to be black! Be proud to be a lion of GOD! Dont let videos and shit lead your life. Dont let the media tell you whats in and whats not. Love yourself my brotha! Dont listen to these uneducated foos. A degree dont mean shit!

@thepowelljr The only successful blacks I can think of are Morgan Freeman, Fredrick Douglas, Lil Wayne (He went to college... I know, Surprising. and to think so many youth drop out.) MLK, etc. I can't think of an uneducated successful black male. Except for Lottery winners.

At my high school, they required all the students to apply to community college, which accepted anyone with a high school diploma, just so they'd have some where to go after high school, If they hadn't of done that.. I don't think many of the kids would be able to say there going to college. Of 160+ seniors. Only 70 graduated. And some of those kids had 1.4 GPA's.

lol to be honest you haven't ran into too many black american expats who can prove this wrong to you in so many different ways. our problem as a people as a whole is we access our worth by how others perceive us to be. This is low self-esteem, and your lack of self respect shows quite clearly. More so for me because I am an expat. I understand my culture, and I see it more clearly now that I have spent time in countries where no one really cares if you're black..

lol we defy the status quo, and many of us get tired of having to hear about how we live in the beast, and oppression etc etc. So we find our opportunities overseas. Many black americans are doing this now!! And many of us do come back to contribute.

Hey, I went to a predominately white college (98%) and never once did anyone think I was there because of "sports". The white people I interacted with guessed I was there because of affirmative action. And they were right!

@TheBigBadWoIf I've heard of it, but never read it. Was it written by the same author who wrote the Isis Papers? I forgot her name.
There are 6 basic types of Black men, and any combinations thereof, that fit the comfortable status quo for Whites:
Jock/athlete
Thug/gangster/dangerous type
Entertainer/clown/minstrel
Pathetic soul/beggar
Asskisser/oreo/no Black identity
Angry/disenfranchised/radical/militant
