A few things.
Respect yourself, respect your background and heritage, do you know why racism works? because if you call a black person a n*gger but you call a white person a trash h*nkey .......... do you know the difference, the white person wouldn't give a toss, they wouldn't even feel insulted, and there in lies the power.
Achieve, the more POC achieve the more you can't be held down, remember what colour matters more than all others? ............green, look at the Chinese, you can call them ch*nk all you want, do they give a fk? no, they carry on, China is a super power, they don't give a sh*t what the English call them.
Look at Jay-Z, look at Lebron, look at Henry, Jay is a self made billionaire ffs, came from the ghetto to being richer than almost any white man in England bar the top 1%.
None of the above is achievable through a victim mentallity that the so called equality groups and liberals try to force on us, every time the Libs start banging on about it, it perpetuates the idea that POC are victims and that gets enfused in the publics minds.
Racism is worse now than it was 15 years ago, the only reason that is, is because the constant social and political discussion about it (for clicks, sponsors and votes mind you) is reminding white people every single day .......... that POC are poor little victims who cry themselves to sleep because they won't accept them.
Do you think that view is healthy or ends up with someone thinking they are superior?
That is why I fully reject all of the Liberal woke brigade antics, they make you into a project, that itself is belittling.
