@siesonekmk Hi dumb fuck. Africans were killing over TRIBAL CONNECTIONS, not RACE. Please know what you are talking about before you ever try to correct some who has way more knowledge and wisdom than you. Africans, Indians, Native Americans, as well as Asians did things according to tribes and dynasties. You sound like a typical house nigga who read a few Euro-centric books thinking you can be deep. Open your mind and read a few books, learn, then come back to "try" to challenge me. Hotep!

@coreyaustin1 You're an idiot, blacks are certainly racist. To think that racism is invented by whites to take over the world is beyond stupid. I suggest you read about the genocide in Africa where different tribes of different "races" are killing each other. They are all black and not a single white person is involved. You sound like a typical black person who is blaming "the man" or white people for your own faults instead of taking responsibility and making a change

@cordedpoodle Blacks didn't invent the term "race" to begin with so how can we be "racist"? Racism was invented by Europeans to try and take over world history, and is built off of white supremacy. So being that black people aren't white, then the answer is YES black people are incapable of racism. Racism only exists in places where white supremacy is running.

Hip Hop NEEDS some LOVE MOVEMENT!!!!

When a black man in America is being sterotyped as a "drug dealer" then chances are that prophecy has come to pass. They sell drugs to thier OWN people within thier own community, and yet, they protested to the government and law enforcements about inexplicable living conditions. Some blacks are not indoctrinated, The music industry is prostituting all artists, who are unaware of thier OWN surroundings. Slavery exists, instead of physical torment, its now Psychological Manipulation

One good thing about youtube, if I ever tried to debate this in a live forum, and actually contend that blacks were no different genetically. That blacks were capable of racism. I'd probably be lynched. The question is long overdue for debate. Are blacks genetically incapable of racism? Could it possibly be that the denial of black racism is the last remaining obstacle to economic equality?
