I am merely trying to show how differences arise in cultural expectations by showing the most extreme examples. If I were to just contrast the differences between Japan and the United State in time spent studying, high school drop out rate, or % of population going to college you wouldn’t call that racist.
Cultures are different and these differences can lead to different priorities, which leads to disparities in certain sectors
theres a HUGE difference between pointing out how long a nation studies and how that effects that nation's educational success versus lazily blaming a race's culture on the race's relative lack of success.
Japan is a country. the US is a country. Black americans ---although i dont even think we were explictly talking about only black americans here --are not a country. Black america consists of caribbean immigrants, african immigrants, mixed folks and american descendents of slavery.
Using study time to measure educational success is using hard data that has a direct and valid correlation to how successful a student might be based on how long they study.
Using anecdotes about your observations as a non black person growing up in a black community is not hard data and even if it is, it does not correlate directly to black people going into higher education.
how can you even make a generalization about black culture when so many different ethnicities, languages, countries, class ranks and more define it? You are making a racist argument.
I never made a generalization about black culture?? I simply stated how cultural expectations can influence outcome and told my own personal experience about how expectations effected my community. Not a total generalization of all black culture lol
I’m not even talking about race lmao. I’m simply talking about how cultural exceptions effect a person growing up. Sociology 1101 shit
