As much as I hate to say it, a lot pro-black intellectuals are too closed off to real intellectual growth. A lot only want to learn from people that look like them and what mostly passes for black-centric “scholarship” these days relies on imprecise reasoning/questionable

A degree doesn’t carry the same distinction as it did before. And unfortunately, this is a consequence of DEI/preferential admissions, but I would argue people have the authority to question your reasoning.

It’s not hard for black folks anywhere in the US to have southern accents, because we are rooted in the south and those ways of speaking are passed down from our elders — it’s why black chicagoans talk more southern .. but Harris is from Berkeley/upper class Montreal.. Fake!

Forget about maintenance level replacement, the growth of the 2 non-black groups matter
When Asians and Hispanics take over they will not be as easily shamed/guilted into taking your historical grievances serious. White “racism” will seem very generous and nice in comparison
This was the U.S. population makeup for minority groups in 1980:
- Blacks 12%
- Hispanics 6%
- Asians 2%
In 2024:
- Blacks 13%
- Hispanics 19%
- Asians 6%
In 44 years groups have doubled & tripled in size while we’ve just maintained. Coincidence? 🤔
