@johnhopebryant_: Self-esteem is the whole game. Black Africans & Caribbeans often have high self-esteem but low confidence. Black Americans? Often the reverse—high confidence, but low self-esteem. Why? 400 years of slavery broke the spirit, not just the body. We never healed. If I don’t love me, I can’t love you. If I don’t respect me, I won’t respect you. If I don’t know my purpose, I’ll make your life hell. We’ve got to heal to deal. Because once we fix what’s inside, nobody can stop us. Big thanks to @jeromedlove & @theblackmoneytree for having me on to talk all things Operation HOPE, financial literacy, and the mindset shift that separates the wealthy from everyone else. #SelfEsteem #Wealth #BlackExcellence #MentalWealth

Black Caribbean and black American are the same people with different cultures the same history, the same DNA.. 🧬 90% of the slaves in the Caribbean came from the deep south

Different but still the same. Two things can both be true at the same time. To discount being apart of Africa sounds very colonizers language. Be careful of the separation they want us to create. We need each other. We were both colonized.

Ethiopia, unlike other Black nations, has never experienced slavery. This is due to its unwavering resistance and defense against multiple colonization attempts. Ethiopia also boasts an ancient civilization known as Axum. Notably, it embraced Christianity before Europe and Islam before the Middle East. As a result, Ethiopia has a strong sense of identity and self-confidence. Many Ethiopians believe that success is largely a matter of opportunity, and they are willing to work hard to achieve their goals.
