    'Black Lives Matter' Is Not Helping Blacks

    That's the actual title of the video, and Derryck Green may just be the smartest black man in the nation today. He understands what's happening at a base level, while most blacks (and a lot of whites).

    I challenge anyone to watch this video and then intellectually dispute anything Derryck Green says.

    Well here are some quotes from both individuals I disagree with...

    Paraphrasing:

    1:20 "There are a lot more pressing issues that need to be prioritized over police brutality." (OK but does that mean we wait to address police brutality?)

    2:02 "Yeah as if black lives really mattered to the organization Black Lives Matter they really should be focusing on issues that have really hurt black Americans for a long time." (As if police brutality isn't an issue that has "really hurt black Americans")

    That's as far as I got... Sorry this is a video of two people I don't know and have never heard of having what seems to be a collegiate level philosophical discussion at best.

    You asked us to intellectually dispute anything the guy said. I dispute what he said 1 minute and 20 seconds into the discussion. I don't believe the issue of police brutality needs to be deprioritized for the sake of black marriage rates or in wedlock births. I think the implication is that if a black couple has a kid in wedlock that black kid is somehow going to be immune from police brutality because he will most likely not get into trouble...

    Coming from a good home and all...

    Problem is...and we all know this...it just simply isn't the case... Combine that with the fact that racial profiling does indeed occur. Even if this black kid born and raised in a well adjusted environment has a greater risk of being swept up into the system then a person of a different color solely for being black. The least we can do is address the issue of police brutality.
    I find your lack of faith...disturbing...

    Generally speaking, $#@! children are what fill up our prisons. Many have spoken on this topic and have been ignored or shouted down.

    This is a large enough problem and should be given stage time to rectify it. It happens across lines of race and wealth.

    Right wingers don't threaten people? Try and stifle people? Are we not deadlocked in Congress?

    Your interlocuters are coming up short.

    good example.

    No, it doesn't and he said that more than once. lol
    Whoever criticizes capitalism, while approving immigration, whose working class is its first victim, had better shut up. Whoever criticizes immigration, while remaining silent about capitalism, should do the same.

    I'll be frank, police need an over haul. In many ways. But this issue with blacks and police needs to be solved from both sides. Police doing their end, and blacks doing theirs.

    Police have very little to do with about 50% of black girls being molested or raped by a black man before they are 18. Almost nothing to do with the romantic partners black women/men select and choose to have kids with. Very little to do with child's abuse in the form of neglect and assault as well.

    Police are half the problem. One subject to political infighting. But the black community can fix those problems I listed with zero interference from anybody but themselves. They might even get assistance from unlikely places.
