The point is that you are dealing with theory and I am dealing practicality. The history lessons are nice and all but just like the current USA economy, the "applied/practical" folks are the ones working. Therefore, it is time for black folks to find practical paths to better their situations.
I haven't seen a practical statement from you this entire discussion.
You said "we" in one of these posts, so I'm guessing you are in fact black, and I'm astonished at your ignorance. No black person should be saying forget history, let's just deal with the present. You'll never hear a Jewish person say forget the Holocaust. You'll never hear an Armenian say forget Armenian Genocide.
You have to understand your history so you can forge a path to success going forward.
