i once watched a video where a man explained that oftentimes throughout history, people get similar ideas around the same time.. he explained that this indicates that we live on some sort of timeline of consciousness
i think about this in regard to race relations and black people in the united states i liken the race situation to a woman who is being beaten by her significant other the beatings may begin and stay the same however what will change are the woman's thoughts, attitudes, and actions the first time she is beaten she will likely be shocked.. then after the shock of a few beatings, she will likely fall into fear.. then over a little more time her overall demeanor will be that of depression/hopelessness.. after depression will likely come anger.... after anger will be action of some sort which will likely be revenge or leaving the situation so what u see in that timeline is a constant negative stimuli that causes different reactions in the woman's behavior over time so when i apply this to black people in america.. i wonder where blacks are there have been different movements based on the overall collective consciousness of the culture throughout time, but where are blacks today? i somewhat feel that today- black people are over racism.. i feel like these days black people are tired of hearing about it and contending with it.. whether its old history or new happenings, i feel like these days black people are getting to a place where they just want to live life i think what we will likely see in black people in upcoming years is many will turn a blind eye to racism.. not so much in the sense that they will be unaware of it.. but i feel like blacks will stop reacting and instead try to just focus on their own situations "how can i get money" "how can i get respect" "i want a valuable significant other" "i want to buy a house" "i am a business owner" "i want to have a baby" etc i feel like tickets to race based / slavery based movies will plummet as blacks grow increasingly tired of seeing the prescribed victim role acted out again and again i don't think black people will always contend with racism, and its already started with people like raven symone and her refusal to even really acknowledge racial roots in any significant capacity.. all the sensationalism that surrounds racism will lose its power and those who attempt to offend black people will me met with blank stares and backsides u can fight the bully or walk to class through a diff hallway.. win or lose i think some black people will just choose the diff hallway as dealing with the same old strife is getting old it'll be like "ok you think im a n****** so what else is new?" it's like racist people are soon going to have to make up new words to try and get the same reactions because i think many black people are over it i don't think there will be a fight much longer as collectively, i think black people want to just be themselves without dealing with other peoples' unfounded negative perceptions soon, i think many racist people will find that they have no one to argue with as black people will just be too busy to care sort of like how some foreigners are.. they come to the country and just do what they do without regard to much else of course injustice will always be injustice.. but i think the constant war that surrounds brown skin is getting very old to black people another thing i think many white people (and this is not a diss) will be in for a rude awakening because if you look throughout history.. many things that have been brought through american society to destroy people are first brought to the black community so what i mean is- things like chronic unemployment and police brutality which have been typically black male problems are likely coming to the average white citizen next.. and these problems will also include women i honestly feel that police brutality is coming to a white female near you fairly soon.. its something we really haven't seen yet, but i feel that its just a matter of time because the orchestrated problems that plague minorities are merely experiments built by the "elite" to see if they will work on society at large just a few of my personal thoughts on race, collective consciousness, and the future of american society
