40 ACRES AND A MULE, DONKEY, MONKEY OR WHATEVER!

HAVE WE ALL FORGOTTEN WHAT WAS PROMISED?
DID WE NOT BUILD THIS NATION WITH BLOOD AND SOUL?
LET ME GET ME!

  1. check this out. 40 acres and a mule? How many years ago was this? Are we seriously still sitting around waiting for those 40 acres, which is quite frankly owned by some big corporation today. I think we should forget about all those promises that white people made so many year ago and start paving a way for ourselves. I think that's our problem as a people and as a generation. We sit and wait and make excuses. As a woman, I can't endorse that because it will always be hard for me, plus as a Black woman. I don't know about you but fuck that 40 acres and that mule. What do we need with a mule anyway?

  2. there is an obvious disadvantage that we as a people face. i jus want to even the playing field. jus because i want my forty acres and a mule doesnt mean that im going to retire and do nothing with my life. i jus want what was promised not for me but for my generation and also the ones up under.

  3. promises are for the birds!!! especially political promises!! the only way to ensure prosperity as a race/people is to go out there and GET IT GET IT GET IT for outselves... I also feel that our generation's patience has grown thin... instant gratification (i.e. wi-fi and i-phone apps)is now the norm.. 40 acres and a mule is a great idea but` highly implausable....

  4. I use 40 acres and a mule as an expression. I'm not sitting around waiting for shit bcuz it's not comin, but I know that I want something out of life and whatever effort I put into achieving that dream, i know I want the fruits of my labor. When I say I want my "40 acres and a mule", It means I want credit where credit is due. Anyone, no matter what race, would want that.

  5. "THEY" would rather devise a plan to wipe out our population all together before a white man says he's very sorry and gives us what is owed. wait they already have. a package store on every corner, teach us to degrade our (ONLY WAY OF REPRODUCTION THE WHOM) women, teach our young men to kill or be killed, slang drugs thats the only way to get rich aint it.....hahahhaha wake the fuck up. how long will we be the minority instead of the majority. THINK ABOUT IT HOW IS IT THAT THERE ARE MORE OF THEM AND WE ALL GOT HERE AT THE SAME TIME. THEY ALREADY BASICALLY KILLED OF ALL THE NATIVES.
    WHEN WAS THE LAST TIME YOU SAW A REAL NATIVE AMERICAN.
    AGAIN AND AGAIN I SAY. WAKE THE FUCK UP. KNOWLEDGE IS POWER. WISDOM IS ESSENTIAL. GET UNDERSTANDING

  6. lol do we really believe in America's promises? Hell no!!! To have anything, we gotta work for it...sad thing is we have to work 5x as hard. Yeah we deserved what they promise but we aint gonna get it...It's crazy that we have to endure so much just to become recognized..and when we do something right for ourselves.."they" end up with the credit
