Via the Daily Caller, a black students group is demanding expropriation via force majeure of a white fraternity house and turning it over to blacks to hang out in. But the interesting part is further down in the black students list of demands:
We demand that Cornell Admissions to come up with a plan to actively increase the presence of underrepresented Black students on this campus.
We define underrepresented Black students as Black Americans who have several generations (more than two) in this country. The Black student population at Cornell disproportionately represents international or first-generation African or Caribbean students. While these students have a right to flourish at Cornell, there is a lack of investment in Black students whose families were affected directly by the African Holocaust in America. Cornell must work to actively support students whose families have been impacted for generations by white supremacy and American fascism.
It would be fun to be a fly on the wall in the “conversation” in which the black protestors are told to ixnay on complaining about African/Caribbean students being such lavish beneficiaries of affirmative action rather than actual American blacks. The political logic of the Coalition of the Fringes is not wholly obvious since it is almost never spelled out in the media, so it would be interesting to hear it explained to these protestors.

Someone is trolling the blacks into making all these unforced errors. First the NFL protests, then the BLM-violence, and now this turning-on-their-own-coalition.
Given the recent Pelosi brouhaha, and the Asian and Hispanic components of the Democratic Party I'd say a nightmare scenario will be coming for them in the next few years. Impossible to tell what, but my theory is that it will involve some kind of compromise or initiative that one segment will find impossible to live with.
Really can't see who will be allied with blacks politically in the future. I don't think they can get along or compromise with anyone. Not even other blacks, but especially some other ethnic interest that is united and doesn't give two figs about the fact that slavery once existed in this country.
Literally how long can any of this go on? Unless we become some kind of bizarre caste system country, do blacks really expect a nation where Asians are among the rein holders to support affirmative action and the myriads of other benefit programs that are pretty much designed just for blacks?
Do they think Hispanics will be hunky dory with sectors of local civil service employment being predominantly black?
Their crisis is coming, and I can't imagine it not occuring in the next five years or so.Replies: @njguy73, @415 reasons, @Negrolphin Pool
So it seems to this miniscule segment of the population. To our fellow citizens who get their news from the teevee, legacy press, or mainstream internet news sources -- Huh? What errors?
Having to recruit the children of Africa's Talented Tenth to graciously occupy the Affirmative Action slots that slave-descended American blacks Just Won't Fill -- what's wrong with that?Replies: @bomag
The African holocaust?!
Hell, the idea of a Jewish holocaust is a bit much, but at least some of them were in fact incinerated, so far as we can tell. (Even then, they were not being burned as sacrifices!)
But an African holocaust? In America? Has a single Negro ever been burned unjustly in America? I mean, I’m sure they’ve died in housefires and such, but a holocaust?
Someone get these assholes a dictionary.
Le’Denarius: Dayumn, blood! Why those Jews be so rich and shit and controlling everything?
Quarrellious: It’s Holocaust, fam. They say the magic word and them white dudes just let them take whatever they want.
Le’Denarius: Then we gon call it “African Holocaust”! And we gon get us all that money and power and shit like the Jews got!
The most prominent examples of successful foreign-origin blacks are half-Kenyan Barack Obama and 2nd generation Jamaican-American Colin Powell.
Foreign-origin blacks seem a little less adversarial than American blacks, while also being much more driven to succeed. Another factor is that their migration is more selected than that of American blacks. Maybe that explains their success?
Those damned jackboots are always ready to start marching. Maybe if the Jews wanted to make some real progress, they should stop looking at the holocaust as an exclusive Jewish victimization and start viewing it as one of many times that a society has overthrown its wealthy and cultural elites. Trying to force ideological changes on a majority that doesn’t want them causes resentment and backlash. It always ends poorly. But the victimization viewpoint says that society must change for the benefit of the elites that espouse the changes. The societal overthrow viewpoint illustrates that you’re just heading back down the same path again; author of your own misery.
Blacks’ largest collective problem is that they continuously troll themselves.
The NFL protests are basically the NFL reaching a “blackness” tipping point and going the way of Detroit in hyperlapse.
As my co-worker once said about the problem with cockroaches, “It’s not what they eat or carry off, it’s what they fall into and f*ck up.”
This doesn’t cohere with their own explanation for AA though.
I thought it was supposed to be because blacks were underepresented on account of discrimination. Are Americans supposed to discrciminate less against African blacks?
foreign-born blacks receive the same huge preferences as American Negroes; the reason schools like Cornell prefer the foreign born is simply because they are less likely to cause “trouble,” which I’ll define as violence and parasitism (eg, calls for more black profs and black studies courses). That is the conversation you’ll never hear on campus, except of course among white and Asian academics in private. Welcome to Amerika–enjoy!
Which makes my wonder, why is that resentment ok, but the same argument about illegal immigrants is racist, heartless, Nazi and so on?
I made something I call the Pyramid of Victims, where the top is African Americans and the bottom is conservative, Christian, straight, white men. Other levels include LGBT, Muslims, Hispanics, liberal women, and so on. I adjust the rankings based on the offense du jour. The lower a group is on the pyramid, the more they can be libeled, slandered, insulted and attacked with impunity. For now, Donald Trump is on the bottom of the bottom. Anyone can say anything about him with ZERO repercussions.
What the Obama is the “African Holocaust?”
It’s a recent thing. Starting in the 60s American blacks were marinated in anti-white resentment so few of the ones who grew up since then are motivated to achieve by the white man’s standards.
Good for them.
By the way, there are tons of foreign-origin blacks in college and pro sports now.
Read this VERY interesting article below from CBS Sports. It’s about Nigerian immigrants and their overrepresentation in sport.

“Intelligence.”
Lagos is now more of a football powerhouse than Chicago.
“There is an honor about them.”
Anybody who can help USC win the BCS championship is honorable.
As I’ve mentioned in other posts, White-Americans aren’t guilt-ridden and noble. They’re idiot buffoons and clowns who are obsessed with sportsball and other forms of entertainment (music videos, tv, movies, social media, video games). They worship blacks not because of a high-minded anguish over the white race’s historical “sins,” but mostly because blacks are good sports and music. If blacks weren’t entertaining, whites wouldn’t care that much about them.
When small children get obsessed with Winnie the Pooh and Thomas the Train, adults think that’s funny. I think it’s funny that grown adults are obsessed with whether Ladarius Washington commits to USC or LSU.
Speaking of minorities, what ever happened to Native Americans? They used to be mentioned so much by the media, academics, tv sitcoms (Gunsmoke, Bonanza, various Cowboy vs Indian shows), and movies (remember Dances with Wolves?). Also, lots of teams named after them (Cleveland Indians, Washington Redskins, Fighting Sioux, etc). In recent years, they seem to have disappeared from national consciousness. Sort of strange.
Maybe it’s because in the past, they were portrayed as war-like and that appealed to the American public. Hence why all the Cowboys and Indians movies/shows and sports names. These days Natives are shown (falsely) as peace-loving feminist environmentalists, so people assume Natives are lame and ignore them.
USC has 85 football scholarships. So 5/85 = 6%. Which is remarkable when you consider that Nigerian-Americans are about 0.1% of America’s population. So they’re overrepresented by a factor of around 60x. Which is a lot.
“Regal people.”
Nigerians are a “regal people.”
Olajuwon was the first Nigerian athlete that I ever watched.
My conservative white neighbors (who strongly disliked foreigners and blacks) practically worshipped the guy. For White-Americans, sportsball (and other entertainment) is like kryptonite. Totally paralyzes their instincts.
I wonder if coaches will start mass recruiting in subsaharan Africa. It seems like a massive opportunity to bring over athletes that can win.
When reading articles about immigrants, Houston seems to come up a lot. Houston has a ton of foreigners. Non-Hispanic Whites are only 37% of the population of Metro Houston (including the suburbs).
I love it how some posters here and other WN/anti-immigration sites act like Texas is somehow still “apart of America” while “California is lost.” If you look at the demographics, Texas is pretty much in the same bucket.
A few weeks ago, a poster here was explaining how Houston was so much better to live in than more liberal metro areas. To him, Houston is “real America.”
3 in 10 Nigerian immigrants have a Master’s Degree. 1 in 12 have a PHD. That’s pretty astonishing. I question the quality of Nigerian institutions, but that’s still pretty good.
Their kids can’t “do sleepovers” because their sons could be accuses of “raping.” Lol. You just can’t make this stuff up.
Imatorbhebe is as American you and me. Maybe more.
I wonder what the “Sons of the South” think when they see that someone named Imatorbhebe is in their country and on their son’s football team. I bet they don’t care. I bet they yell “Roll Tide” when they see him, in hopes he’ll join the Crimson.
Nigerians do seem to have lots of fast-twitch muscles. That’s probably their secret. I remember a Nigerian immigrant mentioning that the average Nigerian has a physique of an American gym rat. I think he may have been exagerrating only a little.
A large percentage of our black American population is originally from Nigeria.
”
A Nigerian immigrant mocks Indian subcontinentals for their poor athletic performance.
I wonder if there is a substantial difference in athleticism between Nigerian immigrants and American blacks (who have a large percentasge of Nigerian ancestry). If there is, it could explain why Nigerians are so overrepresented in sports. If there isn’t, perhaps lots of American blacks (through their bad behavior and lack of academic seriousness) are stunting their opportunities for athletic success.
Nigeria has 186 million people, but that’ll grow to 398.5 million by 2050.
I predict we will be seeing a lot more Nigerian athletes in the future.
Both countries are renowned for producing world class soccer players, but then so is francophone Ivory Coast a bit further along the coast.

The black lady professor from Africa (this is like 2002) said that there is tension between american blacks and african blacks. I spouted off something about how the slaves would be genetically inferior to average africans since they were weak enough to be subjugated and sold off by their african counterparts.

In the California prison system, the Mexican Mafia always allies with white “gangs” against the blacks. This, despite the fact that racial hatred between whites and Mexicans is often intense.
It’s also worth pointing out that the shotcallers who end up in prison are far more representative of the actual black and Mexican ruling class, races that are, of course, both more violent and lower IQ than whites.
While very few white career criminals look anything like genuinely successful whites, black and Mexican alpha thugs often closely resemble people who hold real power in their respective societies in rural Mexico and Africa. This means the prison social dynamic may provide a fairly accurate crystal ball into what a mestizo-black power struggle might look like.

OT – On an earlier post I suggested, based upon material I’ve read at this blog over the years, that the hurricane that hit Puerto Rico might come back to haunt Trump as Puerto Ricans flee to the mainland and become voters for 2018 and 2020. Numerous media reports have confirmed this and now I’ve seen some democrats on twitter encouraging Puerto Ricans to deliberately settle in red states to turn them blue for revenge.
My new hunch is that we are going to see a renewed effort to make Puerto Rico a state. The media and democrats will suggest that the response to this his hurricane would have been much quicker if only Puerto Rico were a state. Of course I am sure the guaranteed 2 Senators and probably 3 to 4 House members don’t factor into this:)
And we can count on the cuck GOPe to immediately cave as they are denounced as racist for opposing our 51st state.
But count on SJWs to work with it.
They don’t need trolling. How many riots and large scale mob wildings have we seen since the 1960’s? How many workplace and other mass shootings? How many individual assaults, rapes, and murders? How many of their own homes and neighborhoods looted and torched? These people are amply able to create chaos without outside assistance.
Apparently it’s feeding and caring for 400,000 imported Africans so they’ll multiply to 40,000,000+ Africans in around 16 generations.
The fact that they are serious floating Biden, Warren, Hillary (again!), Bernie Sanders (agains!) Zuckerberg, and Oprah as 2020 candidates shows you just how the party is situated. Right now, the only candidates the D’s themselves think they can field successfully for presidents are really, really old retreads or else shock-celebrities to copy Trump’s run.
But one thing is key: none of them (not even Oprah) carry the baggage of Hate-Whitey. The entire younger generation of D’s are all easy to label as hate-whitey, unless they are straight-white-males, in which case they are easily shown to be milqutoast cowards who roll over for their racial/sexual/cultural “superiors” (e.g. Martin O’Malley).
I, for one, am appalled to see these racist, bigoted, hateful Trump supporters at Cornell protesting the presence of hard-working immigrants who just want a chance at the American dream. Something something Emma Lazarus.

Black Men are extremely well built and handsome. Women especially white girls throw themselves at them
No wonder you guys can’t get girls. The Black dudes already got em!
Even more interesting is the fact that foreign blacks (particularly if from Africa itself) are 100% black, while US blacks are 80-82% black. Plus, the white percentage that US blacks got was from talented whites, not the WN/feminist lower tier (that is just as untalented and stupid as blacks).
All the more reason for all AA to end. They already disenfranchise Asians from AA, and now they have this problem. End the whole thing.
One, the United States is not directly responsible for slavery in the Caribbean and therefore has no “debt” to Caribbean blacks. Caribbean blacks can complain to Great Britain and Spain.
Two, after the abolition of slavery, blacks in the Caribbean did not suffer the legal government-backed racism that blacks in the United States did.
Haiti is considerably worse than British Black countries (like Jamaica, Barbados, and Antigua), and Spanish countries that mixed heavily (Dominican Republic, Cuba, etc.). While the Spanish black countries are Mulatto, the only difference between Jamaica/Barbados/Antigua and Haiti is that French governance was probably far worse than British governance.

Question :
For these smarter immigrant blacks, what happens to them in the long run? They hate US blacks at the onset, but their children surely just end up interbreeding with US blacks. If not the first gen, then the second gen.
So do their descendants get pulled down to US black performance? Or do they stay in what is the ‘talented tenth’ which already is disproportionately comprised of blacks who are not the descendants of US slaves.

Thomas Sowell discovered that darker skinned blacks in NYC were more likely to do well than lighter skinned blacks. This was confusing as the discrimination against darker skinned blacks is well known.
As I recall, he dug further and discovered that many were from the Dominican Republic. These immigrants were used to 12 hour days of agricultural labor. A 40 hour work week was a vacation. No history of welfare addiction yet.
Decades ago, Theodore Dalrymple noted that his laziest most pathological patients were white. The Pakistanis and Indians less so.

Graham Greene’s 1960s novel “The Comedians” is set at a resort hotel in Haiti.
Sex tourism in Haiti in the 1970s played a role in the introduction of AIDS to the US.
So Americans used to go to Haiti on vacation.
Until a few months ago, I did not realize that the Ivy League was giving preferential admission to black students from other countries. From what I understand these students are not counted as “black” but “international”, only US citizens and permanent residents are counted as blacks.
This black Canadian girl has African immigrant parents. She was shocked that she got into three of the five Ivys to which she applied. She was accepted at Penn, Princeton, and Yale, and waitlisted at Harvard and Columbia.
(Incidentally, Harvard matriculated a record number of blacks and an entire class yield of 84% so the college couldn’t admit anyone from the waitlist. Next year Harvard will accept fewer students so that people can be admitted from the waitlist. Crimson logic. (LINK) )
Some Holocaust – they started off with 400 thousand people of the 14 million brought to the Americans and are now 40 million strong and, for all their ills, are the wealthiest, most successful and best educated black population on the planet ever.

This response just begs the question of who today is directly responsible for slavery in the U.S. These all seem like tenuous metaphorical debts owed by the gatekeepers of the globalist elite to the historically oppressed. From the perspective of Harvard, does it really matter if your ancestors were enslaved by American cotton planters in the Mississippi delta or British sugar planters in Barbados? Should it? I get that the point is that the descendants of American slaves are more deserving of sinecure from Harvard because it is an American institution. But it seems better to let Harvard pursue its ideological agenda which presumably doesn’t care about this distinction, since it sets up internal contradictions that will be difficult to settle to everyone’s satisfaction.
I don't if it's accurate or not.
But they were freed earlier without any fighting. A lot of planters just left since they couldn't run them any longer.
But their historical situation wasn't very good. It does seem odd that they do better than American ones. I think the toxic culture developed since the 1960s is the best explanation.
As for the ones directly from Africa, they might be from the elite class?
Of course American cotton planters and British sugar planters did not enslave anyone. They purchased slaves from slave traders who purchased slaves from the African kings who would otherwise have killed them.Replies: @ic1000

Another interesting example of this that I didn’t know til just recently was the Notorious B.I.G. His mother was a Jamaican immigrant.

B.I.G. later attended and dropped out of George Westinghouse Career and Technical Education High School. Rappers DMX, Jay-Z, and Busta Rhymes also attended Westinghouse.
With his mother always working, B.I.G. got into lots of trouble. She should have put him in military school.

Anybody who can help USC win the BCS championship is honorable.
As I've mentioned in other posts, White-Americans aren't guilt-ridden and noble. They're idiot buffoons and clowns who are obsessed with sportsball and other forms of entertainment (music videos, tv, movies, social media, video games). They worship blacks not because of a high-minded anguish over the white race's historical "sins," but mostly because blacks are good sports and music. If blacks weren't entertaining, whites wouldn't care that much about them.
When small children get obsessed with Winnie the Pooh and Thomas the Train, adults think that's funny. I think it's funny that grown adults are obsessed with whether Ladarius Washington commits to USC or LSU.
Speaking of minorities, what ever happened to Native Americans? They used to be mentioned so much by the media, academics, tv sitcoms (Gunsmoke, Bonanza, various Cowboy vs Indian shows), and movies (remember Dances with Wolves?). Also, lots of teams named after them (Cleveland Indians, Washington Redskins, Fighting Sioux, etc). In recent years, they seem to have disappeared from national consciousness. Sort of strange.
Maybe it's because in the past, they were portrayed as war-like and that appealed to the American public. Hence why all the Cowboys and Indians movies/shows and sports names. These days Natives are shown (falsely) as peace-loving feminist environmentalists, so people assume Natives are lame and ignore them.USC has 85 football scholarships. So 5/85 = 6%. Which is remarkable when you consider that Nigerian-Americans are about 0.1% of America's population. So they're overrepresented by a factor of around 60x. Which is a lot."Regal people."

Most people are up to that challenge. But it’s nice to escape. It’s nice care about something you know doesn’t matter. Just for a little while, to be worked up about something bigger than you that you know won’t result in someone’s death or destruction.

Among Non-Hispanic Whites, 25% know no WMDs were found in Iraq. 43% of Non-Hispanic Whites believe WMDs were found in Iraq. Did I mention the poll was conducted in 2015?
By any reasonable standard, Americans are unbelievably dumb. It's not just NAMs. White-Americans are horrendously stupid.Watching the football game once a week seems reasonable enough to me. Knowing more about USC's freshman football recruits than the H-1b visa is just totally insane.
I actually think the average poster here has a pretty good balance between following sports and following REAL NEWS. I'm not criticizing people for watching sportsball. I'm criticizing them for adopting it like it's a religion, more important than actually knowing about the world around them.
We all want to escape sometimes, but escaping for nearly all your free time is just childish. It's remarkable how poorly informed Americans are. This isn't some impoverished third world country with no public education system and a population that toils 15 hours per day. It's a first world country.

In 1986, he landed a record contract which led him to New York where he met Danielle, the woman whom he would end up spending his life with. Over the next decade, Todd worked with a wide range of artists, including The Beastie Boys, Nas, Mick Jagger, Santana (on the Grammy-winning "Supernatural"), and won two Grammys for his work with the innovative Latin group Ozomatli. He and Danielle ultimately moved to Los Angeles, settling in the suburbs to raise their two children, Asia and Phoenix.
Successful as he was, Todd had creative ambitions that weren’t being satisfied. "I decided I'd rather share the wonders of the world with families – kids, adults, everybody.

A large part of the resentment of foreign born black people by African Americans is the foreign born ride for free on the hard fought advances by AA. No segregation, Jim Crow, bad schools etc etc. The foreign blacks just show up and live in a better America than AAs did.

You know, maybe that Ta-Nehisi Coates guy is on to something.
I’m really interested in American natives, because in Canada (or at least in BC, where there are a considerable number of them) they’re huge.
There’s isn’t much in BC for SJWs to get excited about. The Chinese, Koreans, Sikhs, etc can have their own SJWs if they want them. This group isn’t really fertile soil for (white) SJWs.
There’s a few Muslims but not that many. A lot are Iranians who left after Khomeini, not really SJW material either.
But whipping up natives works really well. Cities are declaring that they’re on “unceded territory”. My sister, who teaches (STEM) at an interior university keeps me informed of ridiculous emails sent to all staff. Suggesting, for example, that profs might like to add a note of thanks to the X Nation for hosting the university on their land. And attaching this to their course outlines.
The law school is a huge hotbed of up and coming SJWs looking to ride this wave (or get into the refugee racket).
In the 1960s, American natives were heard from. Now they’re never in the news. I’m puzzled.
I understand that the sugar plantations were really really awful. It wasn’t so much that the Caribbean slavers were more cruel but that sugar was just harder work. One book I read said they couldn’t sustain the slave population and had to keep bringing in new ones.
I don’t if it’s accurate or not.
But they were freed earlier without any fighting. A lot of planters just left since they couldn’t run them any longer.
But their historical situation wasn’t very good. It does seem odd that they do better than American ones. I think the toxic culture developed since the 1960s is the best explanation.
As for the ones directly from Africa, they might be from the elite class?
My new hunch is that we are going to see a renewed effort to make Puerto Rico a state.

The Haitian slave revolt didn’t just annihilate the French. More importantly, they massacred all the Mulattoes, ten percent of the population. That left only IQ 70 blacks in perpetuity. Cleverness substitutes for intelligence and brutality rises to the top, like Africa.
I think they need some Nigerian proofreaders.
When the slave trade to the US stopped, they were a little over a million. Now their descendants are well over thirty million. That is the “African Holocaust in America”.
The Left have changed the definition of White Supremacy. It used to mean some yokels prolixing about how it really is the natural order that whites should be lording it over everybody else. Now it means whites dominating a field or whites at the top of any organization or any business (“running it means being supreme, you see, like supreme leader”).
It’s very difficult to have a reasoned debate with people who insist on bringing their own definitions, but then again, it’s all a power-play. Stand your ground.
enslaved by American cotton planters in the Mississippi delta or British sugar planters in Barbados?
Of course American cotton planters and British sugar planters did not enslave anyone. They purchased slaves from slave traders who purchased slaves from the African kings who would otherwise have killed them.
I’m not sure what you are getting at here. What is the significance?

Speaking of hip-hop, the background of the contributers to the single “Back on the grill again” from 1992 is interesting. It was produced by Todd Ray and had verses by MC Serch, Hot Red Lover Tone, Chubb Rock and Nas.
From Wiki:
Todd Ray (Married to Danielle, Daughter Asia, Son Phoenix) is the mastermind behind The Venice Beach Freakshow, a classically inspired circus sideshow with an attached museum of oddities. A 21st century P.T. Barnum with a congenital resistance to the very concept of “impossible,” Todd has set out to build the world’s greatest showcase for the unique, the bizarre and the wondrous.
As a teenager in South Carolina, Todd fell in love with the early hip-hop singles coming out of New York and began performing locally with friends. In 1986, he landed a record contract which led him to New York where he met Danielle, the woman whom he would end up spending his life with. Over the next decade, Todd worked with a wide range of artists, including The Beastie Boys, Nas, Mick Jagger, Santana (on the Grammy-winning “Supernatural”), and won two Grammys for his work with the innovative Latin group Ozomatli. He and Danielle ultimately moved to Los Angeles, settling in the suburbs to raise their two children, Asia and Phoenix.
Successful as he was, Todd had creative ambitions that weren’t being satisfied. “I decided I’d rather share the wonders of the world with families – kids, adults, everybody.

Hillary jumped on the Hate Whitey bandwagon for her most recent campaign. I was angry but not surprised when she explicitly said that whites need to listen more to blacks. Of course this was not accompanied by any sort of reciprocal plea.

Despite the Black student’s boorishness here, I’ll give them some props for implicitly acknowledging that there is a limit to all the free money sloshing around higher ed and the modern welfare state; thus one should manage things to keep oneself in line for such, while keeping others out.
They are still in the news: XL pipeline protests; a Nebraska border town had their liquor licenses pulled for the usual reasons. And believe me, our politicians lie prone before them.
But the 24 hour news cycle needs more stories, so other groups have moved into the niche.
Also, tribals were trumpeted as original inhabitants and natural environmentalists. Those are uncomfortable tropes now that we are dedicated to population replacement and cramming as many people on the planet as possible, damn the environment.
I wonder what the natives make of the waves of Chinese, etc coming to BC. I doubt the Chinese will buy into the SJW line.

This is an anti-economics view of the world that denies the importance of Demand in order to place blame on the Suppliers. One could equally take the converse stance, if that was better suited to the pre-selected agenda.
Consider the current opiate epidemic. By this reasoning, it’s entirely due to pharma execs and Mexican kingpins — pill mills and easy access of US cities to Nayarit black tar retailers (for example) have nothing to do with it.
That would put the policies and trends that led to hollowing of the American economy, beyond the bounds of discussion. The subsequent rise in despair of various Left Side Of The Curve populations? Dunno, just happened, I guess.
This is my postulate as well. The weak, slow and stupid were sent here as slaves. Not a promising gene pool.
So a guy who jumps out of a container in Port Newark has the same affirmative action benefits as an American black whose family has been here since the revolution.

I wasn’t aware of Chubb Rock’s background. Wow. The Ivy League prefers blacks with immigrant backgrounds because on average they have better high school GPAs and test scores than the descendants of US slaves.
Nas was on Henry Louis Gates’ program, Finding Your Roots.
Roughly half of the black population of New York City (Biggie was from Brooklyn) is of immigrant origin, either from the Caribbean (Jamaica, Barbados, Trinidad, Haiti, etc) or directly from Africa (usually Nigeria or other neighboring West African countries). In Brooklyn and Queens, the percentage is probably even higher.
I once heard a young black Kenyan say how much he disliked American blacks.
He was middle class, educated, a suit and tie-wearing student who indicated by his body language that he was referring to our glorified (by whites) hip-hopping jerks.
Read this VERY interesting article below from CBS Sports. It's about Nigerian immigrants and their overrepresentation in sport.
https://www.cbssports.com/college-football/news/how-culture-passion-and-genetics-are-fueling-a-nigerian-takeover-of-u-s-sports/"Intelligence."Lagos is now more of a football powerhouse than Chicago."There is an honor about them."
Anybody who can help USC win the BCS championship is honorable.
As I've mentioned in other posts, White-Americans aren't guilt-ridden and noble. They're idiot buffoons and clowns who are obsessed with sportsball and other forms of entertainment (music videos, tv, movies, social media, video games). They worship blacks not because of a high-minded anguish over the white race's historical "sins," but mostly because blacks are good sports and music. If blacks weren't entertaining, whites wouldn't care that much about them.
When small children get obsessed with Winnie the Pooh and Thomas the Train, adults think that's funny. I think it's funny that grown adults are obsessed with whether Ladarius Washington commits to USC or LSU.
Speaking of minorities, what ever happened to Native Americans? They used to be mentioned so much by the media, academics, tv sitcoms (Gunsmoke, Bonanza, various Cowboy vs Indian shows), and movies (remember Dances with Wolves?). Also, lots of teams named after them (Cleveland Indians, Washington Redskins, Fighting Sioux, etc). In recent years, they seem to have disappeared from national consciousness. Sort of strange.
Maybe it's because in the past, they were portrayed as war-like and that appealed to the American public. Hence why all the Cowboys and Indians movies/shows and sports names. These days Natives are shown (falsely) as peace-loving feminist environmentalists, so people assume Natives are lame and ignore them.USC has 85 football scholarships. So 5/85 = 6%. Which is remarkable when you consider that Nigerian-Americans are about 0.1% of America's population. So they're overrepresented by a factor of around 60x. Which is a lot."Regal people."
Nigerians are a "regal people."Olajuwon was the first Nigerian athlete that I ever watched.
My conservative white neighbors (who strongly disliked foreigners and blacks) practically worshipped the guy. For White-Americans, sportsball (and other entertainment) is like kryptonite. Totally paralyzes their instincts.I wonder if coaches will start mass recruiting in subsaharan Africa. It seems like a massive opportunity to bring over athletes that can win.When reading articles about immigrants, Houston seems to come up a lot. Houston has a ton of foreigners. Non-Hispanic Whites are only 37% of the population of Metro Houston (including the suburbs).
I love it how some posters here and other WN/anti-immigration sites act like Texas is somehow still "apart of America" while "California is lost." If you look at the demographics, Texas is pretty much in the same bucket.
A few weeks ago, a poster here was explaining how Houston was so much better to live in than more liberal metro areas. To him, Houston is "real America."3 in 10 Nigerian immigrants have a Master's Degree. 1 in 12 have a PHD. That's pretty astonishing. I question the quality of Nigerian institutions, but that's still pretty good.Their kids can't "do sleepovers" because their sons could be accuses of "raping." Lol.

I bet they yell "Roll Tide" when they see him, in hopes he'll join the Crimson.Nigerians do seem to have lots of fast-twitch muscles. That's probably their secret. I remember a Nigerian immigrant mentioning that the average Nigerian has a physique of an American gym rat. I think he may have been exagerrating only a little.
A large percentage of our black American population is originally from Nigeria.
"A Nigerian immigrant mocks Indian subcontinentals for their poor athletic performance.
I wonder if there is a substantial difference in athleticism between Nigerian immigrants and American blacks (who have a large percentasge of Nigerian ancestry). If there is, it could explain why Nigerians are so overrepresented in sports. If there isn't, perhaps lots of American blacks (through their bad behavior and lack of academic seriousness) are stunting their opportunities for athletic success.
Nigeria has 186 million people, but that'll grow to 398.5 million by 2050.

Maybe, but it might be the case that Nigerians and their neighbors in Ghana inherited a love of sport from being British colonies and having school systems built on the British model. My mother and father met at a cricket match in Lagos in 1949, when both were working in that country as a nurse and banker respectively, so sport was certainly a center of social activity there even that long ago.
Both countries are renowned for producing world class soccer players, but then so is francophone Ivory Coast a bit further along the coast.

Native Americans are not popular in intersectional circles these days in part because they are the least Muslim group of people on Earth.
Isn't it better to care about things that do matter? Better that, if one is going to get worked up, one get worked up about something bigger than you that matters?Replies: @AM
You could be wrong, correct? And assuming you’re correct, how much can you do it about, even then? I can spend days work about the borders, etc. It doesn’t mean it’s going to change, at least immediately.
It’s okay to have fun. Yes, sports can turn into a circus for some, but I don’t think God made us to be so deadly serious all the time either.
Also, I've benefited from the hard work of previous generations of serious-minded Americans, so I have some obligation to do something.
Doesn't change the fact that the modern USA is full of clowns and buffoons.
Here's a poll from the Annenberg Center. Do you know what the poll found?
http://www.cnn.com/2017/09/13/politics/poll-constitution/index.html
* 37% couldn't name any of the rights guaranteed by the 1st Amendment.
* 74% couldn't name all 3 branches of the US govt.
* 33% couldn't name any branch of the US govt.
How the hell do we have public debates when 74% aren't even aware of how the government functions? Can you honestly argue that Americans aren't clowns and idiots?
Another poll. http://www.newsweek.com/how-ignorant-are-americans-66053
73% of Americans can't say why we fought the Cold War.
Another poll. http://thehill.com/blogs/ballot-box/presidential-races/americans-cant-name-vice-president-vp-nominee-mike-pence-tim-kaine
41% of Americans couldn't name the GOP Vice Presidential candidate. 46% of Americans couldn't name the Democratic Vice President candidate.
Another poll. Only 26% of Americans know WMDs were not found in Iraq. http://publicmind.fdu.edu/2015/false/
Among Non-Hispanic Whites, 25% know no WMDs were found in Iraq. 43% of Non-Hispanic Whites believe WMDs were found in Iraq. Did I mention the poll was conducted in 2015?
By any reasonable standard, Americans are unbelievably dumb. It's not just NAMs. White-Americans are horrendously stupid.Watching the football game once a week seems reasonable enough to me. Knowing more about USC's freshman football recruits than the H-1b visa is just totally insane.
I actually think the average poster here has a pretty good balance between following sports and following REAL NEWS. I'm not criticizing people for watching sportsball. I'm criticizing them for adopting it like it's a religion, more important than actually knowing about the world around them.
We all want to escape sometimes, but escaping for nearly all your free time is just childish. It's remarkable how poorly informed Americans are. This isn't some impoverished third world country with no public education system and a population that toils 15 hours per day. It's a first world country.

Okay, so why bother? All the people you admire are dead and not coming back. (Although I think an honest survey of history would suggest that those people weren’t nearly worth the admiration you give them.) Unfortunately, that’s going 1/2 way down the path you’ve chosen. It’s not possible to dislike most people and want to save them in the long term.
I could know everything there is to know about H-1b visas and be completely powerless to do anything about it. That’s not excuse, but it suggests that knowing about USC freshman football recruits rivals knowing everything there is to know about H-1B visas in terms of wasting time.
The person you laugh at likes football. You like politics. Your collective impact on either situation is about the same. I’ve never considered my combox habit much more than entertainment, if I’m honest about the aggregate impact of it.
If someone is burning down your grandfather's uninhabited old home, you might still get angry.Yes, they are. They built a remote outpost of wilderness into the most powerful industrial empire in the world. They've earned my respect. Which is why I find it amazingly offensive to see them slurred in the media, movies/sitcoms, and history books.
Do you know what I find more offensive? These empire builders have descendants that live today - and their descendants seldomly object to the slander directed at their ancestors. The reason for this isn't "white guilt," it's distraction by entertainment. A few decades ago, the "Sons of the South" wouldn't allow the Confederacy to be insulted. These days they don't care, as they're much too distracted by college football and NASCAR to give a damn about their ancestors.
"Roll tide!"Well, no. You could start a discussion on social media or among your friends/relatives. From my experience, most Americans don't even try to understand any issue of importance. It's not because they're discouraged, it's because they're bored. Anything not sports/music/tv related is "boring." The average American has the mental maturity of a small child.I like football too. I care about politics not so much because I like it, but because it's important to me what happens in Washington DC. On the other hand, what happens at USC isn't relevant to anyone. Not even the students at USC.
Foreign-origin blacks seem a little less adversarial than American blacks, while also being much more driven to succeed. Another factor is that their migration is more selected than that of American blacks. Maybe that explains their success?Replies: @Cucksworth, @415 reasons, @Buffalo Joe
Johnny, with a reported 73% of all black Americans born to single mothers and in some cities the number approaching 100%, there has to be a great deal of in breeding in the inner city. That doesn’t lend itself to successful lives.

Elites aren’t just electing a new people, they are also working to elect a new Black people as well. White Christians built the USA and elites are importing / electing a new people not white and generally not Christian to tip the balance toward the D party. . But in other news, BLM aids in the actual physical destruction of the American black males that elites have tired of while AA rewards already successful blacks and newly imported more successful blacks to tip the balance toward ‘better’ blacks who will vote D.

Americans don’t know stuff.
okay.
How about white male Americans?
How many of them knew the answers?
The poll is not disaggregated for a reason.
If it showed how white males did compared to NAM’s, it woul be immediately obvious who it is that doesn’t know stuff.
On a lot of surveys of public knowledge, Whites do about 0.2-0.3 standard deviations better than the American average. NAMs do about 0.3-.7 standard deviations worse. So if we assume a similar gap holds on these surveys, here that'd mean whites do a little better than the numbers I gave. By about 5-7%.
So that still implies White Americans are dumb. However, NAMs are really dumb. So there's s that.

“at Cornell, there is a lack of investment in Black students whose”
I don’t think “investment” means what they think it means: “the action or process of investing money for profit or material result” as opposed to “wasting other people’s money with no hope of ever seeing it again, much less with a profit”.
