Eboni K. Williams shames brothas who work a 9 to 5
Eboni slams Average Joes.
Blog King, Mass Appeal
ATLANTA — Fellas… if you were a C-student and you’re driving a bus, don’t bother trying to get a date with Eboni K. Williams. That’s because the prepossessing barrister told Iyanla Vanzant Average Joes who work 9 to 5 ain’t good enough, and that includes employees in public transportation. Eboni, host of Revolt TV’s “State of the Culture,” believes proprietorship originates with being an A and B student. Instead of driving the bus, it’s Eboni’s assertion more men should seek the pedagogy necessary to own the damn company. Simply collecting remuneration won’t cut it. “To the 50,000 plus comments posted on social [media], I only saw a handful that even considered the possibility of a bus owner being a more aspirational position and recognizing that I am actually speaking and pouring into the ascension of black men when I said what I said,” Eboni elucidated.
“But… some of y’all were too busy naming and shaming me personally, and black women in general, as undesirable gold diggers and much worse. Now, I suspect that some of y’all are the same men that were bringing home C’s and D’s on your report cards only to be coddled by parents that said, ‘Well, that’s ok. As long as you’re doing your best.’ Well listen, I love and believe in the excellence of black men. So no, my dear, C’s and D’s — or any other form of mediocrity — is not ok.”
Ouch!
Eboni called low expectations “bigotry” and “white supremacy” even though she bangs Caucasians.
Her mom was also a bus driver.
Social media reaction was venomous. One commenter wrote, “So, according to this skeezer, da Whiteman is oppressing black men by giving us bus driver jobs?😂😂😂” Another chimed in with, “Brothas, it’s time to separate ourselves from black women completely. We need to get ourselves together, respect each other, and build together. Kevin Samuels would’ve destroyed this ANGRY LADY.” A third viewer added, “Good thing I work 7 to 6. F*ck ’em.”
Do you agree with Eboni?
Should blue-collar workers stop settling for scraps and pursue ownership?
Watch Eboni claim she’s not a gold digger.

something mentally is off with her
Bus drivers in the larger metropolitan areas can easily make over 100K just by working holidays. Some places pay time and a half for overtime.
I don’t know why it hurt. A woman that is a millionaire will not date a bus driver. She wants a mate not a dependent
Black women have been thoroughly brained washed in white supremacy…
More stupid as advice. What you will have is nobody or a dude waiting you out just to miss treat you. Women have no idea what trash is. Just look at there choices.
This chick and those like her only confirmed the 80/20 rule. More like 90/10. They all expect to get a wealthy man in a one-sided (him100% her 0%) marriage .
Don’t worry! She’s Tracee Ellis Ross and Taraji P. Henson waiting to happen
Well she didn’t do her Research City Bus Drivers make Dam Good, In Chicago there is a City Bus Position Call CTA Bus Operator for the Chicago Transit Authority you can make up to 150K with overtime and retirement you can make up to 6K a month and if you can pass promotion exams you retire making 8K a or month, Ms. Eboni “Whatever” Williams needs to do her research City Labor workers make Dam Good Money
No matter how much money a woman has. Yours is ALWAYS the goal.
This shouldn’t even be an argument the women that’s making these comments dnt want average men and average men dnt want them enough said let them make all the comments they want because saying u dnt want that kinda women and then being offended by wat comes out their mouths is ridiculous at this point if we dnt want them and they dnt want us ain’t no need to try and get them to c where they are wrong🤷🏾♂️
I’m with Eboni. She has a lot of money and wants a man who has the same resources and connections. I don’t see an issue.
Blue collar power plant for almost 30 years. Haven’t made less than six figures in almost twenty of those years. Some have disqualified me because of me being blue collar. Not by spoken word but by their actions. Funny because they don’t know that I probably double there salary. I’m seeing the same games at 62 that I saw at 32.
@Reginald Roundtree: Nothing wrong with it, but don’t disrespect regular dudes that go out there everyday to provide for their families. I bet she wouldn’t even look your way partner.
Straight Nigress babble. I’m a bus driver and I make 10k a month no OT. That sista is shallow and delusional as hell like the lot of them. That’s why 70% of them are unmarried.
IBM, Google, Facebook, etc are all downsizing their workforce with Artificial Intelligence. White collar knowledge workers are at risk. Very difficult to replace plumbers, carpenters, electricians, etc.
If you’re driving a bus you’re LITERALLY making average money, and by comparison to high income positions, working a mediocre job. I don’t understand why black people are so butt-hurt over the word AVERAGE. It exists for a reason. We have a national income average, we have financial averages, sport’s averages, marriage and divorce averages. Its math, people. Being a bus driver requires simply a high school diploma or GED education, there is no critical thinking or strategy needed to drive a bus, there is NO quantitative skills required and absolutely no place for creative outlets. So why would you be so offended by being referred to as “average” when being compared to a lawyer or even a small business owner? And bringing it back to topic: what makes you, the bus driver, think you deserve a BAD ASS SEXY HIGH VALUE WOMAN more than a man who DOES have high level skill, education, accolades and assets?
All these women are doing is setting up women in general up for failure. This has been an issue for the past 5 to 10 years with this social media/ me too / women empowerment movement. And what I’m trying to say is these women are telling 99% of women to go and get that 1% man. But didn’t want that 1% man to not cheat on her with the other 98% of women looking for him. Make it make sense
the disrespect is real man, blue collar workers are the life blood of this country. alot of bus drivers make six figures while she is very uninformed.
Translation: He Jedi mind tricked me out of finessing him to take me out for free food & drinks, and countered with his finesse of seggs instead . . .
women like this also have disdain for white collar bm. Be thankful she made it clear and brought out the other women who feel the same. Every man is getting off cheap in this exchange.
This is why I stopped dating black women.
Ebony is lying. When she said she was talking about black ownership, she was definitely talking about money. After see saw the backlash, she tried to clean it up. Stand on what you said….but that’s a MAN thing to stand on your word.
I’m a blue collar worker and single and yes I got dollars in the bank ! That alone makes me happy , I’ve been married once and I will not do it again . I love having the freedom to do what I want when I want how I want with my dollars in the bank .
The problem with her comment is that we act like we should care. I don’t care if she said she only date a man that owns a space shuttle and goes to the moon every weekend. I never even heard of this woman until everybody made her extremely popular. And best believe she’s going to ride this new found popularity.
This lady said it’s white supremacy to tell black men to be average earners, but not to tell black women to have fatherless children…
She don’t mess with bus drivers or black men, so that disqualifies me because I happen to be both! 😂
Just imagine that a month ago, Marques Houston, without even being asked, declared that he won’t date single mothers or women his age. All the guys were out there agreeing with him, saying that he is a high value man and that he is right to have his preference. But here we are now, a black woman says that she won’t date a bus driver as he makes less than her and these same guys call her a gold digger and say her standards are too high, she would die alone, blah, blah, blah. So there is grace for a 40+ year old driver, as he deemed to be a good guy, even though he is just driving a bus (not taking into account what he wasted his youth on) and therefore is worthy of Eboni, an accomplished woman. Yet a single mother or any woman approaching 40 is not deemed suitable for a washed up entertainer with a history of questionable sexual practices. No grace or compassion is given to the single mother, who these guys instantly label as 304s or promiscuous.
This bitch tries to TALK, upLift the Black Community on TV, But Loves Whitey every day of the Week 😂🤷🏾♂️✊🏾 Stay over there ✌🏾
As a black woman studying engineering, I feel like all this talk of “striving for more and being exceptional ” is just a fancy way of justifying greed. Like, yeah I’m working hard for a degree in a feild that should (hopefully) get me a good salary, but as soon as I GET that salary, why can’t I just be comfortable? Why do we have to expect people to do more? My boyfriend is also in civil engineering, and as hard as school is, it’s unfair for me to expect him to strive for even MORE. If a man can provide for himself, and if we can live comfortably together, why not just stay where we are? It’s not complacency, it’s CONTENT.
A Loud mouth attituded.Woman with a wig collection and Nothing Good to say about a B man unless hes splurging on her smdh Typical of her in her mind she’s the shhh and lets bet she cant keep a man or a clean home 😂😂😂😂😂n the only tine a man has time is to play under her clothes Sad 😂😂😂😂😂😂
Her ex fiance was a white dude, and that failed. Enough said
As a Combat Veteran, it is very clear to me that she does not understand or appreciate the price of freedom and the privileges she enjoys that comes with it. Ranks E1-E6 are the lowest pay grades in the military, yet these are the same people who have and will continue to pay the ultimate sacrifice; to help maintain those freedoms and privileges. No, Ms. Thang, you are not better than those who did more for you, than you ever could do for them. The level of her pride, haughtiness, and arrogance is quite sickening.
How much do you want to bet she dies lonely and miserable. It’s really amazing how far black women have fallen. A rich man could marry a woman who works at Popeyes and no one would blink an eye. Now women are making money and they’re not able to marry someone else who makes less money than them. It’s ridiculous and most of them are going to be single for the rest of their lives. Men knew a long time ago if she’s a good person that’s willing to have your back that’s the most important part of the marriage. Not the money. Hopefully one day these women will realize it’s not always about money
Eboni K. Williams has never been married and does not have children. She’s not a housewife, house girlfriend maybe, but not a housewife.
Ebony is extremely masculine, competitive, condescending, and aggressive towards Black men. She secretly despises Black men for NOT choosing her as their wife and mother of their offspring! She actually feels that she is God’s gift to Black men and cannot understand why she has NOT been chosen, since she is a step above most Black women. Eboni believes she is the most qualified Black woman available due to…her law degree, her sorority, her college, and a bunch of other superficial crap (which she constantly brags about), that has nothing to do with her “stank” attitude and horrible personality!
She is single right? She’s 39, a millionaire but can’t get a man to marry her or have kids. She probably going die alone
Like everyone else, she’s entitled to want what she wants. That being said, I’m not buying the “I was talking about ownership and Black excellence” line because she could have said that to Iyanla immediately following (or soon after) her initial comment. The thing is, she said earlier that she’s already been through a spectrum of men (undoubtedly including some who could “own the bus” or even a fleet), but none of them were suitable either. At what point does her mindset come into the conversation? For example, suppose the bus driver was happy in his chosen (well-paying) job because once he left it, his mind was free to pursue other interests, such as painting (art), playing a musical instrument, mentoring youths, small plane piloting, competitive Chess, writing, volunteer work, acting in community theater, wine making, managing rental properties, dancing, pickle ball, gardening, car restoration, acting as a museum docent, calligraphy, traveling, etc. Suppose he’s a well-rounded individual who’s simply chosen to drive a bus; should a woman seeking a suitable mate not even allow for that possibility? The wrong mindset will keep you exactly where you are. And the only thing moving forward will be time.
Let’s be clear: Eboni ain’t gotta want a bus driver simply cuz her mom was one. Same time, Eboni ain’t got a bus driver, the mechanic or anything else. She is proof positive that a little bit of cute, a law degree, and internet celebrity doesn’t put her in the orbit of the kind of man she thinks she deserves. High value men don’t care about her money or status. The fact she ain’t been scooped up means she’s hanging around like raggedy window shutters.
Black Men state their preferences, light complexion straight (good) hair submissive on and on! WELL SHE STATED HER PREFERENCE BECAUSE SHE IS ON A ENTREPRENEUR LEVEL, MATCH HER! I am a Black Woman, WHAT IS GOOD FOR THE GOOSE……!
She just out here giving men dry pus
Everyone wants to be a psychiatrist
What she means and what women think, its ok for a man to take a woman with nothing and raise her up, but women should not take a man and help raise him up. Just think how many women are wealthy because of men. Very few men are wealthy because of a woman.
Who’s gonna be the simp to start dating Eboni after this?!!
Lets be clear she was a Public Defender. Not to mention she dont own shit her damn self. She works for somebody else..
U wouldn’t date a woman with a flat ass so why would she date a bus driver? See we all need to date a person on our level.
Eboni just been around too many white people. She gets that material shit from them. She’s been trying to be white her whole life.
She’s a straight cornball 🤡
You men will stay behind if yall dont wake up. I stand behind Eboni a million percent.
American women will never be good enough for me. This is why I left the country and have been married to my foreign wife for 30 years.
It’s not that she hates mediocrity. She just hates men and uses that as an excuse to rant about men
I know alot of very intelligent people who work regular jobs, if thats her preference thats cool, but to put down people who work regular jobs or the essential workers im not down with that, and its the regular workers who keep the country moving and who support her, and who is she to tell somebody what they should strive for? Everybody strives for something different, everybody cant go to college and everyone cant be a entrepreneur and own their business, she needs to stfu forever.
