The reason I feel some African Americans feel they are ‘victims’ is that they are looking for pity. They want people to give them special treatment because of their ancestors being enslaved some 500 years ago. I feel that any group of people who feel like they are victims doesn’t have motivation to advance themselves. They believe everything they were told early on, that they were thieves, heathens, savages, etc. If people continue to believe they were heathens and savages, they will continue to blame society for why they are the way they are. The only people who can change that ideal of thinking is those individuals. That’s why when certain people, regardless of color, who apply to work at certain jobs don’t get hired, they automatically blame it on their skin color for why they weren’t hired. I find using skin color is an excuse for people who don’t have faith in themselves.
