You might have a blind spot when it comes to accepting the failures of Black Americans that occurred from the seventies onward. I will not repeat them here, but they must be honestly recognized.
The dynamics of colonialism were different from the dynamics of American slavery. It seems short sighted to attack the victims of either situation. Of course, you are free to blame them for their inability to adequately escape the negative long term impact of what they suffered. I am not doing that.
If standard English is "talking like white people " and to be rejected, then the suggestion seems to be that a type of pidgin speech is acceptable, and should be embraced.
Can you honestly claim that frequent and promiscuous sex is not a goal of many of our youth. Much more of a goal than getting professional or STEM degrees, or legitimate business formation?
I don't see the value in attacking the failures of Africans and West Indians and developing a narrative that emphasizes the schisms that seem to exist between the two groups.
Also, everything is not personal, I was not "typecasting" anyone. Any comment with which you disagree is not "white racist", such incidiary language seems argumentative and not conducive to a constructive dialogue.
