BLACK MEN: We Need To Leave America (colin!)

[rNubb]

Black people in the US are not much different than White people in the US. We are all conditioned to think about the US and White people and Black people in a particular way.

We have a shared insanity.

I travel the Caribbean and Central America a lot. I hear how white folks complain about feeling unsafe and harassed and uncomfortable in the Bahamas, St Thomas, Jamaica, Puerto Rico, Belize or Aruba.

I'm black. I blend in. My family blends.

We feel excited and comfortable and at peace in these black countries.

The policemen and firemen and store clerks look like me. They were not conditioned to see a black criminal, affirmative action hire, inner city thug, deadbeat/absentee father and crack seller. They see themselves until they hear my foreign accent.

I was talking to a white couple and they actually asked (no offense intended) if there was any white islands in the Caribbeans.

I thought about it with no offense taken, and told them, Key West.

We are only in the minority in the US.

I am seriously thinking about moving out the States but I don't think I will relinquish my citizenship, the main reason is that its a lot easier to travel with a U.S. passport, and for the fact that after seeing my daughter go through her battle with lymphoma cancer, I realized that if she were not in America there is a good chance that she would have died, especially after seeing how much her medicine cost, for example a treatment of blood thinner shots goes for 7 grand per needle and she needed to take them once every two days for four months..
And lets not talk about the chemo, the biopsy and all her P.E.T. scans... Sadly many folks don't think about shit like this until its too late...

I have not read the article. A vacation is one thing. But leaving America is another. 85% of the world is blind deaf and dumb. This is the poisonous flesh eaters. Why leave when Western domination is almost ruling the entire world. We got to get it together here before we go anywhere else. Our weakness as a people here sentence blacks in South Africa to death every day. If you have a broke leg where you are at, you will have that same broke leg where ever you go.
