Right on everything, because they ultimately make their own decisions but have you ever asked why?

Part of it is cultural holdovers from africa, but most of it is the media blaring "lol little black boy never gonna be shit. everybody gonna keep you down. wasting your life if you even try. just sell drugs, play ball and write songs."

Media is keeping them down. End the media.

Muhammad Ali's (Cassius Marcellus Clay, Jr.) grandfather was a former slave of abolitionist Cassius Marcellus Clay and was so grateful to his former master that he named his son Cassius Marcellus Clay in his honor. Later Cassius Clay, Jr changed his name to Muhammad Ali because he didn't want to be called "a slave name". Shame when people don't know their own history.

I think the black Americans who went back to Liberia ended up enslaving and oppressing a local tribe there and running the rubber plantations. Every so often the oppressed tribe fights back and takes power and does some awful stuff to the other tribe. A few years later the same thing happens but in reverse, tit for tat back and forth.

Just a few places that actively practice actual slavery:

China, because...China. Libya (Thanks, Obama). Dishonorable mentions: India, Pakistan, North Korea, the Congo, pretty much any nation with a warlord and child soldiers...ect.

But hey...muh racism in the western world where that's all been abolished amIright?
