Asians pimping The Black Community, Especially Black Women.

(ThyBlackMan.com) I know a lot of you Neo-Negroes just got scared. But I’m not talking about shooting, cutting or stabbing. No, I’m talking about ECONOMIC WAR! If not now, then when? God knows the Asians declared Economic war on black America decades ago and their success has been phenomenal. They literally came up with a plan to take every dime out of the black Community they could get. And that’s exactly what they do. They never have nor do they intend to give it back either.
I’ve never seen nor heard talk of the Koreans thanking the black Community for making them super rich. I’ve never heard of the Chinese having an “I appreciate your business Black Folks Day” and hand you a free box of beef fried rice. They’ve been in the Black Community for decades and will rarely even hire black folks to work in their stores. I don’t know one black person who was ever invited to Mr. Wong’s house for dinner. Where does Mr. Wong live at anyway?
My point is, the Asians who set up businesses in the black Community don’t like black Folks. In fact, some actually hate you. You are their food; their 
economic slaves. Slaves that have fattened the pockets of generation of Asians while contributing to the economic demise of your own people. Their main objective is to exploit blacks and take our money out of our community. Believe it or not there are classes in Korea and China that teach other Asians how black folks think, dress and act. They hold seminars on how to appeal and influence the black mind; yeah, basic psychology classes.
The American government gives these Asian business owners loans and grants they never have to pay back. They receive tax exempt status as soon as their feet touch these shores. Hell, they can even fish without a license in most states but let you catch a fish out of season and you’ll get a $500.00 fine.
Black women spend billions of dollars a year on hair products; buying 70% of all wigs and extensions purchased in the United States. At roughly 10% of the population black women spend 10 to 1 over everybody else when it come to “gettin’ their hair did.” The Koreans specifically know this. They publish dozens of magazines featuring black women on the cover yet everything inside the magazine is written in Korean so that only they can understand it. But if I was to translate and summarize whats inside it would read: how to economically pimp and exploit black women.
Koreans control 80% of the distribution of black hair products. They tightly control both retail and wholesale distribution. And as we speak, they are closing in on the remaining handful of black manufacturing companies that have managed to stay a float. How were they able to get this monopoly? During the late 1960′s the Korean and American governments came up with a plan (conspiracy) to help the Koreans impoverished,war torn people survive; make money off American Negroes.
So, The United States government banned the import of anything made with Chinese hair. That literally gave a monopoly without competition to all Korean hair manufacturers. No one but Korean owned businesses can export hair from Korea. And good luck trying to buy hair from the Koreans. If they even think that you’re black they won’t sell you any products. Good luck trying to get them to distribute your products. If you’re not Korean you’ll get absolutely no distribution to their stores.
Black folks have very little understanding of economics. Black women attend church every Sunday with fresh Korean hair in their heads, sending millions of Korean children to college while their own kids end up in prison. No preacher to date has said “stop letting the Koreans exploit you.” No preacher has suggested a boycott or lawsuit or trying to break this monopoly.
Each year America’s largest black hair expo held in Atlanta Georgia is filled with Korean vendors. The same Koreans that won’t sell or distribute to blacks are allowed by blacks to set up at black hair events. Can anyone say “STUPID NEGROES? Because that’s exactly what the Koreans are calling you. One year the Koreans even paid R & B singer Brandy to sign autographs and buck- dance for the crowd.
The Koreans may hire a black- face once and a while to buck- dance and show other NEGROES around the store. But that’s only done to help bridge the language barrier and boost sales. However, you’ll notice they never hire white folks. Why? Because white folks will be all up in their business; looking through the packages, writing down their distributors and formulating a plan to make money for themselves. Meanwhile, a black employee will simply “yes- sir boss” and tell other blacks how to spend their money.
At what point do black folks decide that enough is enough? When do we systematically finance the future of our own children instead of theirs? What will it take to make black folks angry enough to start a revolt? Honestly, at this point an economic war is the only solution. If not now then when?
DO THE KOREANS HAVE BLACK WOMEN HYPNOTIZED
BY THEIR SHINY HAIR WEAVE?

how can black women be upset and want to take over this market when the Asians (among other races) are the ones who’s hair it is that they’re buying?! They SHOULD have the monopoly, it’s their damn hair black women are buying! When skipping rent/bills to wear another race’s head of hair becomes the norm (to the point of never wearing one’s own God-given locks in public, at any and all costs), this sort of shutting out and being taken advantage of is truly deserved. And though women of other races do sometimes wear wigs/weaves, take note that it’s only SOMETIMES (except of course for celebrities, but that’s another story…), and they buy textures/colors to match their own, but how many black women do you see rocking their own texture/color in wigs/weaves? It’s always Indian this, Malaysian that, Mulatto curl, and don’t get me started with the reds and blonds! It looks horribly fake all the time, and yes, everyone else is laughing, I’ve heard it myself….
if we haven’t figured out that we are the root cause of this, then we are in fact dumb.
we think having access to another woman’s hair is our right.
No doubt Frank
Asians are intelligent and hard-working. Why should they respect the ghetto filth that they are surrounded by, much less actually hire them? They come here with nothing, often not even speaking the language, and work their asses off, and they look around and see the natives with every advantage in the world simply leeching off of society and simultaneously blaming all of their problems on their sole source of income, housing, food, medicine, education, etc.
When they do hire the natives, almost invariably they will be demanding more time off, complaining about having to actually work for their money, quitting after a couple of weeks or months, and often even worse behavior. The fact that Asians can and do succeed, when they face much, much greater obstacles than the natives, and do so in those very neighborhoods, should be telling you something. But, no…it’s ALWAYS somebody else’s fault.
cosign what Deanne said as well
When you hate yourself, you are easily manipulated. Simple. Now black people like to think that they have a monopoly on pain but they don’t. All groups of people have had their behinds whipped by some other group of people at some time or another. Now let’s find out why black people are suffering economically. There is a curse black people are suffering from and it”s called integration. Black people lose sight of history and forget how they have consistently done their prophets. people like Booker T and Marcus garvey, and Martin Delaney were speaking towards a more self-reliant approach to the economic needs of black people. However, you had sellouts like DuBois, one of the worse traitors we’ve ever had, who helped lead us down a path where we find ourselves mired in such filth and decadence. When we decided to integrate, we elected to become a dependent group of people instead of an independent group of people. Because of this, you get no respect as a people. There was a time in our community when the dollar stayed in our hands longer than jews. That concentration of wealth was suppose to allow us through successive generation build our power to the point that if we needed to go to government for any redress, we had the economic might to affect their decisions when it came to policy. However, we didn’t do that and for that, our so-called community is completely demoralized. Generational welfare, homosexual marriage, young teen girls aspiring to be strippers, teenage boys becoming criminals before they even turn teens, etc etc etc. So when we come to an issue of business, like selling beauty products to blacks, it is sinful for black people in general, most notably black women, to say they are being exploited by Koreans. Did Koreans colonize black women’s minds? Is it their fault that black women wear weave like it’s a rite of passage? Is it their fault that black women hate themselves? What they do is pure business. Why don’t you all say it’s exploitation when Madame C.J. Walker sells the chemicals to you? Why do you always hold other people accountable to you when you don’t each other to the same standard? You allowed yourselves to be tricked. And your black church was the one institution that suckered you in to being tricked. Everytime time black people agitate for some change, they send in coon preachers to calm us down. Your very president who you all love so much has gone against the very essence your community have stood for and you give him a free pass!!! When you open a business you do it because there is a market. Is is Koreans fault that there is a market of women who hate themselves to the point they spend billions of dollars in other communities, taking away from their own. This is stupidity. Yet once again we get this conspiracy theory that people are trying to destroy black women. Why? Black women are doing a wonderful job of that themselves. Lauryn Hill noted these issues in her song “That Thing.” Yet these words fell on deaf ears. Now you have females with fake hair, eyes, eyelashes, skin lightening, perms, relaxers, straightening combs that demonstrate the self hate black women have for one another. I remember when my ex was complaining about Essence magazine and the white models in it. Black women complained about essence changing (essence experienced ownership change) but didn’t support it. For all the complaints black women have about not having magazines to show them in a beautiful light, this one did and they didn’t support it. It’s not white folks job nor koreans job to make black women feel beautiful. The main reason why my relationships did not work out with black women was because of their lack of self-esteem. I didn’t realize until a few years back when i was with this one particular black chick. Her self-esteem issues were smothering. And it’s not like I didn’t tell her she was beautiful. I did. I affirmed her. However, if you’re dealing with a person who doesn’t feel like they are good enough, then things will not work. I am sick and tired of black people in general, but black women more importantly not holding themselves accountable for their own self-destruction. Koreans are not your enemy? It’s the person who is staring themselves in the mirror. The one thing i like about beauty is that when you women stare yourselves in the mirror, it also forces you to take a look within yourself. However, when black women do this, they hate what they see. Whatever they show on the outside, is what they feel on the inside. On the inside, black womne, for the most part, really crave being a white woman. Whatever reason you want to give it doesn’t matter, the issue is what it is. Passing this down on Korean people is unfair and disingenious because you’re not taking into account the issues that korean women have as well. What about theose who have surgery to not have slanted eyes? What about those who use skin lightening creams themselves? Black people are the sole reason why they are in the mess they are in. The scripture says his people are stiff-necked. This especially goes for our women. To go against your nature is to go against your Creator. Why do you think things will go in your favor? Change your ways. Me personally I think it’s too late, but on this issue I don’t care if I’m wrong.
I wonder this myself, when will this stop. Asians don’t respect black people at all. They imitate the way they THINK black people talk to appeal to them, then as soon as another Asian or white, etc. come up… their voice goes back to normal. smh
There’s been little improvement since Youtube and online business… blacks are beginning to support one another a little more, but it still has a long way to go to beat this.
Tasha- I have heard about Micore’ from a friend of mines and I must say their agenda is admirable in that it allows for the people who spend the most money on hair to now profit, keeping the money within the community instead if sending over seas. Then she told me you can receive free hair on top of that! I am signing up next week in fact and look forward to being apart of something that to me sounds like the Avon of hair and getting in while it is just starting. I know this will be a successful venture and a statement to the Koreans that you can’t control our neighborhoods if we don’t let you so I am co-signing your statement and hope that anyone who reads this will do some research on Micore’ as I think to make a powerful statement against those who oppress our women for profit like cattle! Just my take..

Lets take the hair industry back and keep the dollars in out own neighborhoods
WE AGREE THIS HAS BEEN THE CASE UNTIL NOW!!
Steph — I know it is not easy. I only broke from the family habit of pressing and perming after I lost one-third of my hair. Not easy. But necessary. So it is with so many things touching our entire race — Harriet Tubman, Frederick Douglas, Ida B. Wells and all the rest whose names we revere could not wait for public or even family support to do what was necessary, and they had bigger problems than pressures to Europeanize their hair! Good thing they didn’t give in, and if they didn’t, we don’t have to either. As for your hairdresser, YOU provide the support, and tell her there is another sista out here saying, “Right on! You go, girl!” That is what we have to do for each other if we are to stop making ourselves poor behind trying to look like, act like, and be like what we are not.
Message to Mathews:
What you wrote is very interesting. But the reality is not so easy. In the past, Black women together decided to have natural hair with a big afro. This was a great solidarity which is required but does not exist today. For instance recently, I saw my hairdresser. She woke up and I am very happy for her. What I mean by that: she is a single mother. She realised that she could use more wisely her money and she decided to have natural hair. Making this move is courageous because you don’t find that much support. Her cousin came over later and I was hearing her criticism. She could not accept my hairdresser’s decision to have natural hair and I am convinced that her cousin is not the only one who is trying to discourage her to make this move.
“Economic war” is not necessary. Self-control and a little understanding is sufficient.
Black women, we need to get comfortable with the idea that God did not make a mistake in giving us the strongest, most versatile hair on the planet; we are fearfully and wonderfully made, no fake or Korean hair necessary. That understanding alone would save us millions of dollars every year.
Black men, y’all figure out where you’re trying to live up to European material standards for no good reason, and stop — that’s another set of millions saved as well.
Then, we go do something for ourselves and our children that LASTS with the saved money. That’s not war. In fact, it will probably bring more PEACE to our community than anything that has been tried for a while, because we won’t be under the stress of scarce resources when we stop giving our abundance to other people.
Dear the author of this article,
Why do you promote hate???
Thank you for posting this. You are right about the Korean monopoly on hair in our communities, and also about the disdain they hold for us.
I read recently about a young brother who tried to buy from the Koreans and was treated so badly that he went to China, made a deal with them, and started his own line, which I believe came out this year. (Don’t remember his name, but the article/interview was on the BlackList or Knowledge is King site.) It took him several years to achieve his goal, but with perseverance, he did it! This shows what we can do if we are truly determined to help self and our communities!!!
Yes, it is partly our fault that other ethnic groups–specifically the Arabs and Koreans–have been able to infiltrate our communities to such a great extent. I wholeheartedly agree with those comments about this. We have to stop complaining about the lack of respect others show us, while still continuing to give them our money!! That’s the height of stupidity, and in order for us to survive as a group, it must cease–NOW! We must support each other.
Candice,
There really should be more articles encouraging black women and men to control their behavior. We as a race are too carefree and frivolous with our money. We don’t invest in ourselves. There are black men and women who own apartment complexes who we can rent from and there are also black men and women who own car dealerships and grocery stores that we can support. African Americans, more so than any other race in this country, are the weakest in strength and power. This is not because of our numbers, but because we don’t take the extra steps to uplift ourselves. We as black women should research black hair care products and companies and endorse/support them just as Asians research our weaknesses, spending habits and exploit us!
Hypocrisy at it’s finest! You talk about Koreans pimping black women, but not about black men being pimped by whites. Black men spend their money on cars, jewelry, houses, sneakers,liquor, food, clothing that was manufactured and sold by white people. So why aren’t you writing articles telling black people to stop buying from these companies? Where’s the articles encouraging us to stop buying food, cars, clothing, etc?
Black men don’t own major car or sneaker companies. They don’t own firms that rent apartments to people. Yet it’s only black woman being pimped. This article is a joke. The only thing you’re showing is how brainwashed you are. Brainwashed into believing that only black women are being pimped.
Black people spend billions at companies owned by other races. And none of the companies have appreciation days for us. But we all continue to buy their products. Economic warfare? Please! This is nothing more than another article trying to control black women’s behavior.
Stupid Question! Does It look like Obama has power to You?
niya, do you think Obama holds a Postiion of Power?
Writing Princess-WHAT DOES WHITE FOLKS ARE DEVILS have to do with Asians exploiting blacks? Then you called the writer “FEEBLE MINDED”- a term racist whites used against blacks in order to sterilize them. So, we already know where your head is. Then you call a black writer RACIST. A black person in America can’t be racist because racism comes from a position of power. You’re on a black websites repeating White PROPAGANDA. Again we see where your head is.
Negroes have always defended white supremacy and took on their thought patters;sad.But you’re up here defending ASIAN monopoly and economic supremacy over your own family…..PATHETIC! YOU forgot to say that SOME OF YOUR BEST FRIENDS ARE KOREANS. LOL.
You ve got too much horse hair in your head to think rationally. The Koreans already got your brain on lock!
Other things that we should emulate from Asians. They don’t believe in credit cards and the lottery. They use their own resources.
Da Truth,
I really like your interesting comment. It is really interesting because I don’t go to White or Black churches so, none of them takes my money.
I don’t know if Asians actually hate black people but I will say they can spot a fool instantly and make money off them. The real problem is that blacks are so damn stupid to buy and support these items that Koreans sell. This is pure ignorance from blacks, the Asians are only making a living off you. The same concept goes for black churches that collect millions each Sunday and then deposit it in white banks that don’t even make loans to black people. This problem is primarily due to corrupt black preachers and church leadership. Black Americans are some of the most backward thinking people in the country.
I started my economic war a few years ago and it is definitely working. I don’t go to stores from the mainstream because most of us are being disrespected anyway. For instance, they follow us around because they assume that we are going to steal something. It is an excellent decision which makes me wealthier anyway. It allows me to build my own business. I took a sabbatical to do it. My union representative sent me the other day an e-mail at midnight, it was Sunday. I laughed because it is a sign that he can’t believe to observe a nigger who got out of their plantation. It is very clear to me that nobody from the mainstream will take advantage of me. I don’t invest in their system. I don’t own a car, etc. and my finance is perfect!!! Black people as a whole in America makes over $800 billions a year. It is time for us to wake up and smell the coffee. I like the article and the arguments of Writingprincess. Thanks for enlightening us.
Oh please get a grip!
You are taking it too far when you write that Asians hate black people!
This is simply not true, and to make a simple statement like that is stupid.
There have been store fronts in the black community for decades and most black folk will not band together to take these places, fix them up and open some type of business in the community!
We can’t get angry at Asians or any other race of people who come here and take advantage of an opportunity.
We are not doing it, and most just sit back and b—h about the Asians, Mexicans and others. While we continue to sit and moan, these people are moving ahead.
Please stop pitting folks against each other by trying to incite black people against them.
You need to be telling black people how to take some of those same stores that the Asians own and start their own business. It is not just about hair, it is so many other businesses that black folks can run right in their neighborhoods. Go and get fresh veggies early in the morning and bring them to the neighborhoods so we have fresh fruits and veggies! There is so much that can be done if we get off our butts, stop complaining about what others are doing, and do something for ourselves!
Are you a fool or do you just play one on T.V.? The amount of ignorance and racism in this post is so off the chain I seriously thought this was written by a descendant of Willie Lynch. This conspiracy crap that started with “White people are devils,” and now has moved on to “Asians are Beelzebub,” is just more arguments from feeble-minded racists who are too lazy and too hateful and too ignorant to empower themselves or anyone else. I won’t address the long list of inaccuracies in this post. I can debate logic but ignorance I just can’t stomach. The reason blacks do not have a corner on the black hair market is not because we didn’t have the opportunity – there were no Koreans trying to force Madame C.J. Walker out of business – it’s because we lack vision and unity. Koreans are able to buy stores, start businesses, and achieve the American dream because they are unified as a race. They don’t get loans from banks, they get loans FROM EACH OTHER!!!!!!! It’s a common practice among Koreans to engage in a crowdfunding loaning system called “kye.” Kye is when a group of a dozen or more friends or associates get together monthly and each contributes the same amount, usually ranging from $100 to $50,000, to a common pot. Each month, a different member takes the kitty and agrees to pay interest to the others. The members also promise to remain in the kye (pronounced kay) until each has collected the pot. Instead of kye we participate in BUYING LOTTERY TICKETS. The poorest zip code in Illinois bought $22 million in lottery tickets in one year. Imagine what we could have if we’d engaged in Kye instead of “MY”. Our economic futures would be set.
