Happy 70th birthday to my mommy and 69th birthday to my father-in-law today! Take your vitamins, folks, especially that vitamin D. Black people have the highest rates of vitamin D deficiency in the US.

This thread hits. My generation of cousins, mix of boomers, Gen Jones, Gen X had it ingrained in us that we succeed. Our parents had gone further than their parents. We were supposed to go further yet and give OUR kids even more of a shot. Drilled into us from birth.
I have a... confession? Nor confession, I don't know. But I want to share something I'm struggling with.

So 1. I think I speak for other Black X'ers when I say we have a complicated relationship with capitalism bc there were money making opportunities available to our gen that weren't before.

And I hear and understand the folks saying it becoming wealthy on a certain level means buying INTO white supremacy, but again speaking for my peers, we were taught about getting in all the rooms you can and playing the game so you could change things from inside.

Being rich in general is far from a rare or novel thing for Black folks but it still hasn't been a norm that long.

... so part of me is like damn Black folks ain't even break those barriers forreal yet and are gonna be villainized for it.

So now we know better, we're relearning, etc. What's hard for me is bringing Black billionaires into the "capitalism is evil" convo, bc there are still only 7 of them in the US. Robert Johnson became the first Black billionaire less than 25 years ago...

Many of us were told to go make money... and then bring our ppl with us. Wealth = success, right? We are also a generation of super consumers. Food, media, goods... we're the mall generation.
