The Losing Business Of Anti-Black Racism
The practice of anti-black racism goes back to when "America" was the 13 colonies of the British commonwealth. Since that time, every single thing they have ever done was to find ways to make the rich with aristocracy make money without giving any to the peasantry. Over time, the white peasantry was able to make money and provide for their families, then slavery went....
.... into full effect. Once again, free labor ruled the law of the land by shutting out the peasant labor class during those days. Business owners buying free labor, (calling them slaves is too easy) was more lucrative because there weren't any labor or payroll expenses that white business owners didn't have to deal with. Then something else happened during this journey of Amerikkkan history, The civil war took shape and the lazy lame narrative has always been that Lincoln and America wanted to end slavery, but that's a lie! It was about the Northern states mechanizing their business to start the industrial age only for the Southern states businesses were lagging behind which frustrated industries in the North. The Southern businesses did not want to change their way of life a.k.a. their way of making money and they were willing to die for that simply because that was where their loyalty lies. Looking back at this history, white people died in the civil war for a useless cause where they saw very little benefit from because while they were told it was about ending subjugation of black slaves, it was really about money, the U.S. economy, and forcing businesses to change how they have done business. Even at that time the United States overall economy was good, it couldn't get better if one part of the country is modernizing businesses while the other part of the company is still doing business on the equivalent scale of the dark ages.
Then reconstruction came along, during that time, some Black Americans flourished economically during that time. This was the period after the civil war, but before World War I. More Black Americans were assimilating in the labor force in America, there have been so many labor strikes in this country, there are too many to discuss. However, there was a time when both black and white laborers came together. In 1892, one of the biggest labor strikes happened in the city of New Orleans where both black and white workers strike against the business owners and won! Quote " The economy had been halted. This was the first time in U.S. history that Black and white workers carried out a general strike together!...After three days, the Board of Trade surrendered to most of the strikers’ demands. They got a shorter work day. They got a 25% wage increase. Years later, the government’s legal suits against the strike leaders were eventually dropped. There were some gains made in the working conditions. But they did not win the closed shop which was full recognition of their unions. " Unquote. So what happened after that? The white business owners started giving manager and supervisor positions to more of the white laborers. This way, it was giving them a little taste of upward mobility in the corporate world only to never getting admitted to the corporate executive club. Corporate executives found a way by "promoting" charismatic white laborers into making them think that with "hard work", they will be indoctrinated into "the club" of elite business owners and shareholders.
What does all this have to do with the economy and labor market of 2025? Corporations have learned to master the "divide and conquer" mental and social mechanisms that keep them at the top of the food chain in the political and business sectors. Cherry picking good managers to carry out the bevel standard of "towing the company line" has worked for a long, long time up until now. Dividing black workers from white workers at the behest of black workers being snuffed out first only for white workers being snuffed out next. Bill Clinton signing NAFTA into law was the beginning of the end when it came to the labor movement. Owners of those businesses are going to third world countries to pay workers $2.00 per hour while both white and black laborers are being lied to about job growth in America. Business owners along with politicians telling white people that their jobs are being taken away by black laborers when the truth is illegal immigration has taken away jobs from both the black and white labor force. Also the prison industrial complex labor is cheaper than illegal immigration labor which also is a direct threat to both black and white workers. Yet, the worst of all of this is the cost of practicing Anti-Black racism in American businesses, Practicing Anti-Black racism in housing with the redlining practices, and practicing Anti-Black racism in the U.S. Economy that has lost America TRILLIONS of dollars! Not Millions of dollars, not Billions of dollars, but TRILLIONS of dollars. The historical context of this and why the maggot mainstream media never, ever talks about this is exactly why this country is falling apart on seeing someone like Donald Trump continuing to run it into the ground. Most of us Black people don't care anymore because we're tired of fighting in this area. Quote "If we all can't be equally comfortable…we will all be equally uncomfortable" Unquote Martin Luther King. Just like that white disillusioned manager who thought he was part of the elite executive club who sold out other white people to present day MAGA who have been played by the Trump administration thinking nothing bad would happen to them, this is another brilliant episode Mr. Chris is going to sink his teeth into explaining in verbatim (with facts and history by the way) that anti-black racism will be the downfall of this country along with practicing anti-black racism is a losing strategy where Trillions of dollars in the U.S. economy has been lost because of this heinous practice. The leopard's faces are getting eaten right in front of the Black man and Black woman's eyes. Tune In.
