dean okpara - I dont necessarily know if I agree with this
toon. So your suggesting we should bank with whites as usual? Let's not
chastise black bankers with a narrow scope.
Muhammad Rasheed - It means that "black bankers"
are just white bankers in blackface through the usual routine. The so-called
"black bank" has been compromised since Reconstruction, and banking
with them does not provide economic uplift for the group the way it would if it
was not compromised. In fact, because of the pressure black bank owners receive
to perform in their industry, they are more likely to grift Black people harder
just to prove to whites they deserve to be in the position they are in within a
monopolized, white supremacist controlled industry.

Was the Call but “Instead, They Got a Bank” by Jared A. Ball
dean okpara - the entertainer 'killer Mike' is the poster boy for one bank. Are you referring to him and his campaign in your condemnation? It's sad to believe we are such whores for wyte money and approval
Muhammad Rasheed - I'm referring to all efforts to
pressure Black Americans to blindly "bank black" when the concept is a
predatory white supremacist grift scheme that will not help Black Americans in
any way, shape or form. Please read the white paper in the link I provided so
you will understand how "black banks" actually function, as opposed
to the uninformed "feel good" message promoted by popular black
entertainment figures. Note that the Black Celebrity is a thoroughly
compromised group routinely used as the "poster child" to promote
predatory white racist grift schemes targeting Black Americans.
Are you a Caribbean-American with a "black bank" in your family,
dean?
dean okpara - nah. I identify as ADOS .💯. Pops was rasta. My choctaw grandmother gave me the moniker. Nope. No bankers in prince hall projects Oklahoma city, Oklahoma, where I'm from.
Muhammad Rasheed - What does "Pops was rasta" mean?
dean okpara - my father is jamaican.
Muhammad Rasheed - Thanks.

Zeke Allen - There's no such thing as "group economic
uplift". It's a concept created by President Nixon's administration. The
same administration that created the "war on drugs" concept and the
"Southern strategy".
I'm baffled why so many Black people embrace concepts
created by racists for Black people.
Muhammad Rasheed - You are confusing "group economic
uplift" with "black capitalism/black economics." The latter is
the grift scheme invented by Nixon.
The former is a politically unified identity group using
their political pressure, legitimate representation and strategic vote and
economic boycotts to get policies written and enforced to improve the quality
of life for the entire group. This would include access to capital and the fair
sharing of the nation's household wealth, land and government rule.
It would seem that your profile pic gives away the real
reason you were triggered by this cartoon.
Zeke Allen - Your assumption about my profile is as ignorant
and misguided as your response.
"Group economic" is just another name to describe
Nixon's "black economics" scheme.
Read more and assume less.
Muhammad Rasheed - Everything I said was true and you
confused the two concepts based on your triggering over the interracial
component of the toon.
Please refrain from further emotional posting under my work.
Thank you.
