WE ARE DYING

DantezINFERNO

and nobody's talking about it! and I thought my issues was topical...take a look at this, and ask yourself, why isn't this being discussed in the mainstream? We are dying a quiet silent death, and the traditional leadership is talking about repirations, poverty, AIDS, and a whole slew of anxillary issues. Why did I not know this until yesterday? And I though my subject matter was leading to our demise, this one coupled with it, makes for a very grim picture of the future of black america

I just watched the video, so it is working now. And it is very interesting stuff. You've been doing your homework, Dantez. Keep it coming.

I would be interested to see where he got his information. I know in the city of Chicago the birth rate for African Americans is closer to 3-4 per women.

A U.S. Census reports that Afro-Americans are below the birth replacement rate for the first time in US history. http://www.census.gov/compendia/statab/ - refer to chart 77, for more information.

yeah. he seems to be talking averages. Because more of the caucasian women I know who have kids only have 1 and only plan to have 1.

hmmm....where would I fit in? I am a white woman with only 1 child. He is my only biological child and unless there is an amazing miracle there are no more in my future. BUT if it matters he is half african american... which of course for some people that is another subject...can't help it though...I fell in love with his father/my husband.

Well lol..... incase you all weren't listening he said \"averages\" with each race he mentioned. This is a big deal that I've never heard of. So you take this along with the Aids epidemic, and you have a very bad problem.

I don't see how mixed races can be included in this type of research. Don't take that the wrong way because a child is a child, but how do you put the same child in half of one pool while placing the other half in another? In order for a pure race to survive both parties must be the same race. The guy didn't say every white woman would have 2 kids. He didn't say averages as I previously mentioned lol. It would be right to assume he is going on averages.

Good stuff Dantez.

Isn't this racsist, as he is trying to say that pure black is not replacing themselves? Should all the races only mix with themselves? What about over-population? What about being an American, instead of needing to identify as a black-american, white-american, asian -american. It's almost a type of master-race issue - where would a conversation like that go?

the census bureau data is averages. replacement statistics he is quoting is not saying all women, but total children born divided by one (too include only child bearing women). \r \r http://www.census.gov/population/socdemo/race/interractab4.txt\r \r is how categorized children of inter-racial parernting

Look at this! You're already stimulating discussion and your movie isn't even finished yet. This, I believe, is what is referred to in the industry as \"buzz\". Eat your heart out 'ilovebees'!

so it's racist to qutoe data gathered by the US governments own standards, to exspouse the information in making the point of the diminishing numbers of native born blacks? Specifically when no other ethnic group is facing this same statistic, come on Brad, he's not advocating race exclusive child bearing, he's not condeming inter-racial child bearing, he's saying that an ethnic group is not replenishing themselves (im researching now on total abortion numbers and impact on replacement numbers) , and if they stay the course, they will be no more.

I'm gonna take some flack for this - \r \r I'm sure that the census numbers are correct and all that, but I do not believe that the black population is in such serious decline as to warrant the term \"we are dying\". If the black population is dying, it is because of many other factors, not abortions and replacement statistics.\r \r

it isn't racist in my opinion - it is more factual...\r \r

Hey eks, you said \"Well lol..... incase you all weren't listening he said \"averages\" with each race he mentioned.\" He didn't give an average for white women. He clearly said EVERY caucasian woman has 2 children.

This isn't about video games, but how do we keep this in the top 4? It's making a lot of people think...

Yes, I corrected myself in my next post Bigpunishrswife. I'm sure it was just an oversight on your end though like it was mine.\r \r i don't find this to be racial at all. Racial includes some kind of attack whether it's mental or physical upon another race. He doesn't make one negative comment towards any other race. If you listen to black leaders speak you'll always hear of them talking about how to improve themselves as a race. Black on black crime is a huge problem along with AIDs. Now this. Doesn't mean they're going to fall off the planet tomorrow, but over time it would deminish the race slowly but surely. Numbers don't lie.
