@brooklynbajan415 lol the people of colombia dont fuck with drugs those are just big time mafioso bosses. why are you getting offended? what doesnt your slow ass brain understand. im not dissing black people. im sayin african americans are spoiled compared to the rest of the black people in this world.

im starting to think black people need socialization. im starting to see two common themes affecting most black populations. white supremacy in the society they live in and resultant self black hate. we need empowerment here and in america. blacks need their own system. blacks also need to understand white will/do not see us as equals. accomadation needs to end and empowering need to begin.

@nycolombian91 Yes African Americans may not have it as hard economicallt as other blacks in the world. But i am from the Caribbean and Latin America and i can tell you, Itd just as the historians say. Racism in the United States is the worst. There is no comarisson.

@nycolombian91 what the fuck are you saying bastard? as far as african-amercans being 'spoiled?' black people WHEREVER they live have a right to life without your bullshit stereotypes. who the hell do you think you are? white americans are the most spoiled and self-absorbed people I know.

@chsn09 So true! They don't talk about how these white bankers are robbing the U.S. blind of Billions of dollars. But they'll talk about a no body Black male that robs a Corner store for 50 bucks........

@BoiToy08 Same Reason why Mexicans come to America and say their Spanish or White, self hate also they don't Identify with our Black American Culture, because as you see from this video they live a totally different life.

@purpleteardrops1 wow hommie you sure are ignorant like Ny said You gonna relate to what you can Identify with. If you were to go to china and their were Brits there or Aussies in china you would Identify with them because they speak English and they can help you get around if they know china better than you. If y'all were to interact with each other in China you guys would be identified by the Chinese as English people or English speaking people, same as so called Latinos.
