Just a musing, but is is just me or do a fair amount of black people expect racism to just disappear with out them doing any work?

I mean, often (but not always) when a black person is going on about white people being racist and how America is so horrible to black people, that's all they do.
Whine about it, and expect it to change on it's own, or they expect white people to just randomly see the light and treat them better.

I mean fuck, perhaps if you started working for it, and treated your own selves with the respect and dignity you deserve, other people would too.
(I'm referring to Ghetto people here ^)

OF COURSE.
Not every black person is like this, I'm not saying that.
But in MY own personal experience, a fair amount of them are.

And if America is treating to so bad, why don't you move to another country?
Don't complain if you're not going to do anything about it.

Duude.. I have encountered the most racism in my life from going to my university... it sucks so hard... I am transferring... it disgusts me....

When you walk down the streets and get called a nigger... somethings go to change.

but srsly

the reason people talk about america treating them so bad is the same reason people complain about stuff in general they hope someone can listen and realize. that and not everybody can move to a far away country and some are usually stuck in america

my grandma use to have to work menial jobs and after about like, a childhood and adulthood before having my mother and my aunts and uncles as her kids, she kind of expected racism to happen since she was so use to it. In turn my parents did and it's like hey racism is almost everywhere, you really can't escape it

Yeah. That's so not cool.

But at least you are taking action against it.
Good on you.

I guess that the best example of that is when they use the n-word with each other.
I think that it's self-explanatory.

You don't see other people's using racist slurs regarding their races on themselves.

I understand that.
But I'm talking about the ones who just complain but act like trash.
If you're a proper person and you conduct yourself properly then that's one thing.
