Michael Jai White held a frank discussion about the culture prevalent among the Black community, surmising that purification through struggle and suffering is sometimes promoted for survival, dating back to times of slavery. Drawing from personal experiences, he expounds on the troubling notion of "crabs in a bucket," where those who rise above their circumstances are often targeted and pulled back down by their peers. This is compared to how the older generation sought to protect their loved ones by discouraging them from aspiration and ambition to avoid racial punishment. While fighting against generational trauma and self-hate within his community, White rejects the culture of celebrating someone's downfall, equating it to internalized racism. His revelation-based self-awareness has led him to feel an empathetic connection to others' struggles, emphasizing the need for this cultural shift.
