It’s Time For The Conversation About Black
Lives To Stop Focusing On White People

Unfortunately the biggest threat to a black person is another black person. We see it everyday in the headlines but for whatever reason it is still my fault. A white woman.

This is the most logical and well presented piece of journalism I have read in a long time. And the author is a computer geek, not a product of some leftist house of ;journalism'. Candidate for 'Must Read' ...

All I will say, (recognizing there are extraordinary black individuals, sadly the exceptions, not the norm) is that as a group, blacks are curiously self-destructive, not amenable to self-improvement and self-reflection. They behave purely on emotion with no self-control. How else do you explain indiscriminate shootings at gatherings such as weddings, birthday parties, and just recently, a funeral? Where toddlers and other young innocents are killed? Their behaviors are so notorious, that non-blacks will instantly think “black” when reading about a disturbance at an airport, fast-food joint, subway, Wal-mart, etc., etc. They almost never fail to disappoint people who have a dim view of them to begin with, when it comes to headlines such as this: “_____ youths viciously attack homeless ______ woman - as passersby do nothing.” With the adjectives removed, what is your guess as to the race of the perpetrators and their victim? In conclusion; race relations will always continue to degrade as long as blacks bitterly cling to self-pity, blaming “whitey,” and denial of responsibility.

This should be a must-read.

Excellent article. Hollywood has to take some blame for what is happening in society today. They flaunt their money and their hook-ups and their out of wedlock children and their divorces. They encourage their young female children to become models and pose in sexy bikini's which hardly cover them. Then they get on their bandstands and lecture the rest of us about being racist and rapists. They take their clothes off and perform violent sex acts on the screen for our "entertainment" and for money while lecturing us against being normal men and women. I feel sorry for blacks and whites in the cities. Last night, at least 14 blacks were shot by other blacks. Black and white police put their lives on the line every day for our protection yet our evil politicians are trying to put us at war with them for political gain. This madness has to stop! Read the article again; print it; pass it around.

I’d say high time but who will or can listen. Say a word and out comes the usual rant YOU’RE RACIST. I wish it were otherwise but when I hear the term race or racism I disengage and move on to other matters.

It's time ? It's years PAST time. Blacks are a self destructive culture, but blame other skin colors for their own deficiencies.

Delano Squires makes an argument that has needed to be made for some time.

I'm going to stray off the path a little. White people have deliberately contributed greatly with malice to the 20th and 21st century carnage. It was whites who saw an opportunity to have them n*&&%#@ voting for them for the next 200 years. White democrats knew exactly what they were doing, knew exactly what the welfare state would do to the family structure, knew exactly what the perpetual dependency would do to the human spirit and knew exactly how that would result in votes for democrats. And they know exactly how the struggling socioeconomic bottom rung of all backgrounds are adversely affected by open borders.

Wow, this is one of the finest articles that I have read concerning black culture in today's society. Mr. Squires hits it out of the park. Should be a must read!!! The dems, with help of the media have created this evil "white man" or shall I say "white privilege" narrative that is based on what? Who and where are all these evil white racists we keep hearing about? I am quite sure they are out there, however I have yet to meet them. Maybe it's Don, who owns our local pharmacy or Pat (with 4 kids) who is our garbage man. Most white males in America today are hardworking family men who just want to live their lives and go about their daily business. The combination of hard work and being a family man, by today standards, is considered racists to these liberal nut jobs. How did we get here? It seems that I went to bed one night and woke up the next morning "white privileged" and that I could be labeled a racist at any time and ruined. What amazes me, is that we, the white men of America just sat back and let the radical left define who we are. The most telling to me are TV commercials. We are now inundated with interracial couples, blacks, Latinos, Asians, Muslims and just about every other minority roaming this great nation. If there is a white man in a commercial, he is either a buffoon or a greedy financial planner taking advantage of the minority investor. Disgusting!! I do not accept the baseless premise that I am white privileged and racist because some over educated liberal say's that I am. How about you? Now what do we do about it?

The debt for what slavery built Was paid off with blood that was spilt So knock off the chatter About black lives matter ‘Cause I don’t have white liberal guilt.

Absolutely terrific article. Where has this guy been?? Please make this a must read! I've been waiting for someone to articulate the black-problems-are-white-persons-fault for a long time. I can't help but think that if MLK were still alive, a lot more progress would have been made peacefully. Instead, we were left with flunkys who let themselves be influenced by power, and found the easiest way to success was to blame someone else.

A lot of us here have been posting simplified versions of Squires’ article here for years. It boils down to this - nothing will change in the black community until they themselves change their own culture. It probably won’t happen because too much money is to be made from doing the opposite.

Focusing on white people allows them to continue to avoid taking responsibility for their own actions, but it also keeps the focus off what should be the true target of the ire of the black community. That would be the Democrat party. That party is the mother ship of the worst racism in the nation's history. From fighting to protect slavery, to Jim Crow/Klan/segregation/denial of the right to vote and finally fighting against the Civil Rights, they created it all. But IMO the black community is finally waking up to the reality of the democrat party and their evils. Maybe they will also figure out some day that the democrat party was the home of Margaret Sanger, the mother of the abortion movement and PP.

#3, What you are describing is a culture, or rather, subculture, in America. It has nothing to do with skin color. Too many black people do indeed exhibit what we'll call negative behavior. Far more do not.

About that thing called 'systemic racism'...hasn't the 'System' been created by Democraps? Republicans FREED the Democraps Slaves...Democraps via the KKK, Jim Crow etc. put them back into worse slavery, sadly the blacks fell for the lies... read your history!

fta: The power of the white superiority complex held by black leaders doesn’t just come from distorting racism, but also from minimizing any issue that requires self-examination and self-correction within black culture. There is no greater example of this than the reluctance of black leaders to publicly address the decades-long disappearance of the black nuclear family. We black Americans may talk about the importance of family structure amongst ourselves, but any leader who addresses it publicly — including President Obama — is denounced by leftists and accused of engaging in “respectability politics.” ---- Exactly. Cleaning one's own house is hard work but complaining about someone elses house and convincing yourself their messy house is the reason yours is messy too, that mental gymnastics is easy. I am reminded of what Jesus said about specks and logs in eyes. On the guilty white liberal side, it is the white saviour complex, which is just racism by other terms. Jordon Peterson explained it as "pseudo moralistic stances." Just google that term and his name and the video from an Australian public tv panel show will be very enlightening. I have shown it to several people and they are all impressed with his reasoning. It all goes back to what momma said "Clean your own room!!"

Reply 15; you are correct. Unfortunately, that particular segment of black culture gets ALL our attention.
