Are African Americans jealous of the fame , money and position in society whites have worldwide?
That’s a serious question.
No doubt African Americans have progressed , the president is part black now , there are tons of NBA basketball black players and musicians admired around the world , but what else there is about African Americans admired in the world?
Now on the other hand whites have tons of Hollywood super stars and actors , musicians , all the CEO and business owners , richest men , fashion designers , politicians (don’t forget that the rest 47 presidents were white) , scientists , doctors , inventors , writers , novelists , TV personalities and despite the silly stereotypes the vast majority of famous American athletes around the world are whites such as baseball players , hockey players , WWE wrestlers which is huge worldwide , MMA fighters which is huge worldwide , tennis players , golf players , drivers in Auto and Motor sports , surfers , skateboarders , swimmers (michael phelps) , cyclists (Lance Armstrong) etc etc

they probably are and always have been. this is why they commit so many crimes to make themselves feel less crappy about being incompetent.

We all have a different lens. If you were truly being objective you would also include the black athletes, CEOs, business owners, richest men, fashion designers, new political positions, including the President (not just the past) — do you even realize how many black/African American political figures there are now? And by the way my doctor and her boss are black. Don’t forget the US MILITARY soldiers who are black way back in our history even! Oh yeah, could a black person have helped design your computer? Or possible own the store you bought/stole it from? Hmmm…
Are you telling me that your “lens” is so dirty that you can hardly see? That’s a sad life to live.
Jealous? I think that’s just your fantasy, I say America is probably evolving for the better, minus you racists that need to leave.

What’s really funny is that after all this, it seems like YOU are the one who is jealous. Why is that? You continuously ask questions like this as if you’re trying to beg your position. If it were really the case (that blacks are jealous) then it wouldn’t need a constant appeal from people like you asserting such.

I’m not jealous of White people and you forgot all the famous Black, historians, educators, politicians, philosophers etc. Cornel West, Benjamin Banneker, Colin Powell, Thurgood Marshall, Herman Russell Branson, Haile Selassie etc.
