[QUOTE]Originally posted by lamin: [QB] [QUOTE]The inhabitants of the American ghettos, on the other hand, despite being in the most economic viable society in the world, often, it seems, do not seem to posses that intellectual capital (though it does exist but not developed in the right capacity), they tend to look down on education, and its benefits and engage in vandalistic cannabalism while looking for short term economic reward and blaming others for their lack of long term vision within their own community! [/QUOTE]To get a better handle on things you might want to get a good history/sociology text on the history and sociology of U.S. blacks post emancipation(1865): the significance of the laws of segregation, the great migration Northwards to the big industrial cities, the conflicts with the boatlaods of European migrants entering the U.S., the Civil Rights enactments and Euro-Amercica's response to those enactments, the exodus of the black bougeoisie from the segregated parts of the cities and from the segregated schools and colleges, etc., the evolution from the indutrial age to the information age, etc. You must realise that people for the most part live their cultures and quite often in oppressive situations their cultures are fashioned for them. Think too in this regard of the post-Apartheid township cultures in South Africa. Or the post-conquest cultures of the Native Americans created on the reservations set aside for them. Result: poverty, unemployment, alcoholism and suicide. And the Australian indigenes? And the Brazilian favelas--with raging crime and police brutality? And the Maoris inNew Zealand? Their crime and disaffection rates? It seems as if something very negative happens when European peoples come in contact with non-Europeans all over the globe. Luckily for the Chinese, they avoided being drugged out by the British--thereby making them ripe for colonisation. Japan being an island was able to fend them off giving it time to rapidly industrialise. In Africa, the mosquito and the tough terrain held them off to a certain extent forcing thme to restrict themselves to the temperate parts of Africa. Etc. [/QB][/QUOTE]
