    I don’t think the statement that we degrade ourselves more than others is true. How many groups can you name right now that are living in the land of their oppressor? Now if you can name those groups do you know the media landscape in those countries? I bet the Turkish government has coon Armenians who denigrate Armenians. There’s Iranians right now talking trash about Iran in order to get the Americans to invade and take over.

    Black Americans have three unique things that make us different.

    1. We have a class of very resilient people.
    2. We are foundation of the culture of the country we are oppressed in.
    3. We are in the greatest empire that has ever existed with a sphere of influence that touches every continent.
    So our enemy is amplifying negative depictions of us globally across its sphere of influence. This amplification even infests our minds at times and so 1 Charles Barkley becomes 3 or 4.

    In summation, we are not a deficient people. You can take any group of people and put them through what we have been through and they would exhibit the same signs if not worse. Some would crumble and break.

    We in the belly of the beast and it still ain’t over. We taking major damage but the water is boiling and it’s about to spill over the edge of the pot.

    I get it. We are definitely not the only one's doing it but what I'm saying is that but we are the ones putting that out for the world to see. We have choices and we seem to make fatal mistakes of broadcasting our iniquities Chuck should have never taken a picture like that for Sports Illustrated but it's people like him that can't help themselves.

    Are we putting it out or are white people? Last time I checked we didn’t run sports illustrated.
