Overview
For African Americans, the path towards racial equality has often brought us into direct confrontation with American systems of governance. Whether it is through incarceration, death, or the psychological chains of oppression, countless families have been destroyed and futures ruined because of white America's seemingly insatiable desire to destroy blackness. The question is why? Why does America's system of laws and social expectations create a nation hostile towards African Americans? By implementing subconscious concepts of white superiority as well as black inferiority into the social, political, and economic systems of America, white America was able to destroy the platform necessary for the healthy development of the black psyche. Real Nigga Real Nigger is a look into how these subconscious elements of racial superiority were created as well as how they work to keep African Americans in a perpetual cycle of poverty and psychological disenfranchisement.
