The blame game
It’s easy to play the blame game. Some communities would lead you to believe all their problems are due to “external forces” and that they are in their current condition solely due to these outside influences. We blame the Willie Lynch letter (which is a myth), the “white” man, the government, Babylon system and on and on. It’s always somebody else’s fault. Now we are demanding our pound of flesh in the form of reparations. Will reparations mean we won’t portray ourselves like idiots in the mindless “music” videos on BET? We are so impressed with someone kneeling down next to an overpriced car, pointing at equally overpriced and oversized rims. But of course it’s probably the “white” supremacist record executives who portray us in that way. It’s always somebody else’s fault. That’s the problem.
