Where Have Blacks Succeeded?


Every ethnicity (white/Indian/Jew/oriental) has succeeded in their own native lands and the lands of others.

Where have blacks succeeded?

Three to get you started, you racist fuckwad.

Aliko Dangote (born 10 April 1957) is a Nigerian businessman and industrialist. He is best known as the founder, chairman, and CEO of the Dangote Group, the largest industrial conglomerate in West Africa. The Bloomberg Billionaires Index estimated his net worth at $16.1 billion in November 2023

Tidjane Thiam
Master strategist
Côte d’Ivoire

Thiam’s turnaround of Credit Suisse since 2016 has left bankers and analysts awestruck. Ignoring naysayers, the Ivorian CEO relegated the derivatives traders and recast the bank as a wealth-management operation focusing on emerging markets. He explained his view to Euromoney: “This is a fabulous bank. Or let me be more precise: it has always had a fabulous bank within it.”

Abiy Ahmed
Change agent
Ethiopia

Catapulted into office in April 2018 by the resignation of Prime Minister Hailemariam Desalegn, Abiy has made a huge splash at home and internationally. In 11 months, he has made peace with Eritrea, released 60,000 political prisoners, calmed ethnic tensions, signed multimillion-dollar infrastructure deals with China, started liberalising the economy, persuaded diaspora Ethiopians to contribute $2.4m to a trust fund, filled his cabinet with women, diffused a potential military coup by doing press-ups with soldiers… and the list goes on.

They succeeded in having sex with your mother/sister. Is that why you hate blacks because one might be your father?

Blacks have succeeded in creating "June Teenth" along with BLM after George Floyd and also succeeded in Georgia in the 2020 Election with dumping any ballot that had a vote for Trump on it in an 8 hour period between the time they stopped the ballot count at just before midnight(which has never ever happened in the History of Presidential Elections, but I digress) and picked it up 8 hours later on The TODAY Show to sway it in Biden's favor.. Hell, even RFK Jr, a Democrat, admits this is what happened.. 2024?? We shall see

After the Great Society or whatever it was called by LBJ the decline started rolling down hill fast. Look at some of the other "grease" that was added to the rails like not having to read to pass classes. Not having to speak proper English because it was racist. Saying that any time police arrested a black person it was racist even if they were committing a crime. Being paid to break up the black family units under the guise of the welfare program. Both black people & society were set up by the Democrats. Black people started to believe that "it wasn't their fault" which was echoed throughout society. So what we are seeing now is just the normal progression of the declines masterminded by the Democrats.

Black people have to a large extent woken up to what has been done to them but is it too late? There will always be a percent of people (black, white, no difference) who would love to sit at home & do nothing while the government takes care of them and sadly that percentage has grown over the years because that's all that part of society knows. And again it's not just a black problem, it's our country's problem.

As usual there were zero substantive responses from the Democrat rectum lemmings. Just accusations of racism.

The correct answers would have been:
- professional sports (like I said)
- entertainment (like I said)

As a whole they have been successful no where else.

The Democrat Rectum has no free thought anymore.

What are you on about? Multiple users referenced their influence in athletics and music.

I get your point and agree believe me but...

Something that occurred to me a while back is that IQ tests are essentially tests that reveal how one would do in the west. In Africa much of the aptitude tested for in IQ tests would not provide much while, for example, hunting wild animals with spears. You could say that they could use to modernize but many in the west have come to believe that modernization has hurt them in very serious ways. One thing that Niger is accomplishing is ousting the west which can only be good for them. After WWII we rebuilt Japan and set them up for success which they certainly achieved. As a rule in Africa leaders horde what money the west gives them for their natural resources and refuse to build their countries. I do wish we could educate African nations on how to process their resources and make certain that the entirety of their nations benefit from the negotiations. They can be set up to be world leaders in specific fields that correspond to their natural resources and the world would benefit.

I can't argue with the salient points made earlier but my thoughts tend to go toward solutions.

Since Republicans abolished slavery, blacks have made enormous contributions to modern music.

They have either created or influenced every genre we listen to today.

Rock n roll evolved from southern r&b. Jazz. Blues. Hip hop. Disco. Etc…

There are songs still sung today that go back to the times of slaves working in the fields.

Without their contribution todays music would be entirely different.

As a lifelong musician I agree. Although modal theory, an important part of the history and present of jazz, was introduced to jazz by a white man. Also much of the genres you mention used instruments and scales devised by the west. Even the modes have Greek names because they are credited for inventing/discovering them.
