Black America has had a share of ups and downs living in America post-Civil Rights, a bumpy road, a road of joy and pain but still a journey. Which decade do you think was the happiest decade for Black America.
post civil rights movement dummyEarly 1900’s-1930s.
The 20s
wow you can read... lolpost civil rights movement dummy
This is tough.
70s was post CRM & there was cocaine/heroin, prostitution, gangs & unemployment going on.
80s: crack epidemic. Enough said
90s: crime bill & post-crack America
00s: recession
10s: just lame as hell
I'll be biased & say 70s. They had the I'm black & proud movement still going on. Also the beginning of black television/Hollywood which influenced black televisionof 80s-00s. Great music & fashion plus embrace of natural hair. Despite the cons, I'll say thats kind of freeing.
Yes. Also the increase of wanting "foreigns", scamming, otc/prescription drugs. Truly went downhill2010s the gentrified decade, no real black culture.

True about it not being as much as yts but still seeing young blackkids doing codeine, xans & the like is sad to see & hip hop promoting said drugs is even worse. But I agree with gentrification & the aftermath of the recession being our downfall. College degrees don't have value anymore. There's hardly jobs out there degree or not while cost of living is increasing. As a NYer, I had witness family homes that's been passed down from generations to generations being bought out by big corps & dozed over to build those blah dystopian looking buildings. Then this pandemic in the early 20s decade happens...it's really going to take awhile to recoverIt did not really affect us they way it has affected white Americans. What was our downfall was the gentirification which killed the black culture. They fact that college degrees don't have value, heck even a law degree is waste of time. The phase of hiring more foreigners over Americans.
The millenial generation has been through 2 recessions so no doubt I think Black Americans will learn to be stronger and work to bring the community together. Black Americans can't afford disunity and they need to be more economic minded then ever. Black millenials need to throw away the ratchet culture and go back to being traditional people in order to thrive.True about it not being as much as yts but still seeing young blackkids doing codeine, xans & the like is sad to see & hip hop promoting said drugs is even worse.

Then say that, you sound illiterate af.wow you can read... lol
There was no happiness post desegregation.
Why are here?
Go to one of your designated sub categories.
Hit ignore and move on with day.Then say that, you sound illiterate af.
In all honesty black people never had a peace of mind. We still were getting lynched in the South in the 80s, police brutality became worse over the decades, and segregation still existed even though the signs were gone.
Subjective.
For ME it was the 2010s. Hands down.
My grandparents really liked the 1970s. And will tell you everything went to sh!t in the mid-80s when crack hit the streets.
