I THOUGHT THIS WOULD BE A GOOD SUGGESTION AND A WAY TO UNDERSTAND MORE OF THE PRO-AFROCENTRIC BELIEFS AND OVERSTANDING.........KNOWLEDGE IS POWER!

In the words of Peter Tosh:
“no matter where you come from, as long you have the identity, you’re an African…”!

Answer 1

Too bad, you spewed all this and for what? I will have a racial discussion w/ u anyday, but I'm not going out and spending money.

Answer 2

Great list of books. Personally, I've already had the race dialogue. Too many times. I love to discuss the differences that all humans have and share, and I lament injustice wherever I see it. To quote NOFX "I ain't part of no conspiracy...I'm just your average Joe...Don't call me White."

I think humans the world over torment one another over weakness and fear. Hatred seems to be a higher valued currency than attempting to remedy the wrongs of the world. I wouldn't hold your breath for a collective apology from all people that look "White". I'm as confused as the next person is about why anyone anywhere has ever been discrimated against.

Answer 3

no longer definitely everyone seems to be able to having a deep and honest talk approximately race. I truly have white friends and we've suggested matters that in case you tried to do this with a number of you it may land up in a fist combat. the subject is you do no longer probably have absolutely everyone of the choice race to talk race with, so what do you do? You get around all your compatible friends of an identical race and attempt to talk race with them and that merely lands up turning out to be a verbal version of a lynch mob, in basic terms perpetuating your racists ideals. till you as persons grow to be waiting to open your minds to be waiting to seek for out a confidant of the choice race to talk those concerns, you will perpetually be caught in this conserving development of hate. solid success with that!

Answer 4

were you looking for answers or did you just want to advertise some books. I am tired of everyone blaming their life problems on race, be a human not a colour.

Answer 5

when was the last time you heard some white person say that white people were the first race?

Answer 6

No. Go back to Mother Africa. That way, you won't have to dick with us any more.

Answer 7

why does there have to be a race dialog? we are all one, created by the same GOD! one GOD, one people. we are all different colors but have the same color blood, the same bodies, organs, ect. why do people have to see only the color of someones skin? we are all ONE!!!!!!!!!

Answer 8

no, what for?things have work to their advantage for so many years, why change it?

Answer 9

Waste of Space.... And so....
