culture in existence
Culture cannot be created by a people, but a condition. Generational curses are a preconditioned state of mind ultimately. Its a condition that arrives that most of the time we have no control over. I don't think there is any current condition that could not have been possibly made by a group of people who were placed in unthinkable situations. You can look at where these people come from. Since in this country, from the time of black enslavement there was a condition. A condition black Africans had to live by in order to function properly in an economic system that has to be able to keep a majority of its people sustained. There is a problem today with black America, knowing we are the highest unemployed, unfairly educated, highest poverty rate, not to mention also around the world. I believe the media gives unfair coverage of darker complected people in this country. The only coverage we get, if you'll notice is negative. Not just the music and television stereotypes that go back years into the beginning of the television entertainment, but especially the reminding fact that we are struggling around the world, and where that more than half is dominated by one type of people and message. So there is a condition, we feel that we can do better, but it seems as though our history has been cut off. In schools, the message that is taught deliberately portraits blacks in a negative light. Although it is our history, in this country, but who we were before is left out and many black Americans have no clue that we have come from a great people and not just that a God who has blessed us with intellegience to be lifted from our oppressors. Where there is love for self I believe there is love for your people and those who may not be of our kind. But the idea is that we are not at fault for making mistakes and being in the state we are in now, but are being challenged to take new roads back home, mentally, to a state of mind that is far more than we could ever be.
