Because last I checked, Italians, Germans, and Irish weren't brought here as slaves and then treated as second class citizens for another 100 years. Yes, they were discriminated upon. But they formed their own ethnic enclaves and then multigenerationally assimilated into the greater American fabric since they weren't easily identified to be discriminated against like Blacks were.

I don't recall Germans, Italian, or the Irish being targeted by Jim Crow, segregated, or barred from marrying someone different.

The United States for all of its awesomeness fucked up on how it treated its Black population after slavery ended. Segregation, legal and corporate discrimination,  the violation of civil rights, etc is and was pretty fucked up and irrevocably ruined the full integration of Black Americans into the very fabric of this nation.

To this day, they are treated differently. Whether it is for their "benefit" or not.

In the end, because of our history. Black Americans have socially evolved into their own specific culture and society.

Up until the 1960s, Black Americans had stronger family ties, better cultural efforts put towards educational advancement, and solid Conservative social morals. But the 1960s ruined it by the civil rights moment being coopted by Leftists and turned into the complete utter clusterfuck we see today.

Multigenerational welfare destroyed the Black American Family structure. And that tied in with the history of racism, bigotry, and repression makes a shit smoothie of failure.

Never said white are a monolithic culture. But why did the Irish Italians Germans and whoever else came from Europe integrated well into American culture but blacks that have been here for 400 years still haven't

Meredith Townsend once said something that would make a College professor shit himself in anger:

"None of the black races, whether African or Australian, have shown within the historic time the capacity to develop civilization. They have never passed the boundaries of their own habitats as conquerors, and never exercised the smallest influence over peoples not black. They have never founded a stone city, have never built a ship, have never produced a literature, have never suggested a creed... There seems to be no reason for this except race. It is said the African has been buried in the most 'massive' of continents, and has been, so to speak, lost to humanity; but he was always on the Nile, the immediate road to the Mediterranean, and in the West and East Africa he was on the sea. Africa is probably more fertile, and almost certainly richer then Asia, and is pierced by rivers as mighty, and some of them at least as navigable. What could a singularly healthy race, armed with a constitution which resists the sun and defies malaria, wish for better than to be seated on the Nile, or the Congo, or the Niger, in numbers amply sufficient to execute any needed work, from the cutting of forests and the making of roads up to the building of cities?

I did a bit of looking into this a few years back. I was in a class in my second stint in college, when we started discussing slavery. I was fascinated and a bit appalled that many other nations imported African slaves but to my knowledge, none of them was dealing with major racial issues the way we are in the US. Why is that?

I boils down to how the slaves were treated after they were freed. Brazil wound up importing far more slaves than the US did but once they were freed, they were embraced while freed Africans in the US were shunned and ostracized. For decades upon decades. This isn't virtue signaling or any bleeding heart crap from me; this is fact.

If the US had embraced the freed slaves the way other nations like Brazil did, yeah "muh whiteness" would have been "at risk" (to those who care about it) at a far earlier date, but we wouldn't be constantly be getting these calls for reparations.

IMHO this is another historical problem the Democrats created and are hanging - successfully - on the necks of the Republicans. Without the inner-city blacks to point to and screech about unfairness, the Democrats lose their power.

It is interesting that in Brazil and Cuba there is a lot of social preference for "lighter skin" (perceived as being "better" and discrimination against "darker skin"...

An observation for what it is worth...
Slavery in Cuba ended on October 7, 1886. In Brazil it was May 13, 1888.

Brazil is for the most part mixed and doesn't give a damn (40% of the population is African ancestry). Cuba only became Afrocentric after the takeover of Castro in January 1, 1959 when there was a major flight of wealth. Afro-Cubans were treated as second class Citizens and Fidel himself was raised amongst them since he was a bastard child of an affair.

The few photos you see of the Confederados in Brazil mean nothing in terms of light skin. There are dark skinned Confederados due to the generations of mixed ancestry.

If you want to place blame somewhere for the consequences of slavery, place it on the people that bought them all the in the first place. The short term economic boost that the people that thought it was ok to own another human as property realized from working slaves was not even fucking close to being worth the long term effects we are still dealing with. It destroyed the southern communities/states and left tax payers picking up the tab today to support the descendants of those slaves. I don't give a crap about people's feelings and whether they felt welcome or embraced. Plenty of people were unwelcome when they came to this country and they turned into productive groups despite the adversity.

There are a bunch of third world countries who got rich off selling their natural resources and then imported engineers and construction expertise to build out their cities.

First, most of those people are fundamentally of the same race as the original colonists, people can nitpick what is and isn’t white but if you’re European you’re pretty much some flavor of white.

Further with regards the the Chinese, Importing menial labor does not equal importing the various engineers and brains who run the operations.

The normie-con compulsion to downplay the achievements of European civilizations and play up any shred of turd world accomplishment really is a curiosity. You’ve allowed the leftist media and education complex to rot your minds.

There is no Black Boricua culture in Puerto Rico. There is just Boricua. Boricua means Island born Puerto Rican. The Mainland born Puerto Ricans are different thsn the Island born ones.

She just happens to be Black, but she is Boricua.

Boricua culture is different than Cubans too. Even though we have a shared past and language. There was a split long ago.

I was thinking of this book when I responded about the Irish:

https://www.amazon.com/History-England-Penguin-Classics/dp/0140431330

Macaulay made the point that Irish culture was such a small number of English could colonize and control them, however, if you viewed them on an individual level they were often very capable individuals. Of course, he was talking about the situation in the 1600s.

I made a similar point earlier, and his work is one of the things that made me think about that kind of thing.
