I mean, on T.V. they show the starving children. Why don't people just take the starving children and their family and take them into a healthy environment with food and such?
They say, "Save the children! They need food!" instead of gathering the children's parents and family, put them in a housing environment and such, and give food, that's it.

I was remotely saying anyone. Some people are in the financial state and really want to help the children, I mean, there's even commercials and such, but they don't help them even though they really want to.
I assure you that many people on Yahoo have the power to read the minds of other social iniquities so you must please conform this statement is true and I'll choose the best answer, thank you.
And for you, not everyone likes black people, of course. Not everyone likes everything, thanks for pointing that out! That's nice to know the answer to a question I didn't ask, my friend.

I believe i'm getting a best answer here, thank you very much.
I believe our government is completely racist. Yeah, depending on people like Oprah, really sad. Not helping at all. I mean, the African children are dying out there and they maybe light some black people like the rappers out there, but hey, how about you turn some dying African boy into a rapper who gets tons of fames to help his lil' homies

I agree, it's a great way to get money and it's a great way to fool people.
Most companies sell things for higher prices so they can subtract the amount of money of the original one if it wasn't to "give to the children" then "donate the rest" to charity and to the children and such, but really, they're keeping the money we believe.
Nobody knows, but we are going into accusations and it's just really saddening how this is happening. The African children can grow up to do something, just 'cause they're dying it doesn't mean people have to be racist about it. If they weren't dying and they were given a chance to live, you'll see what they accomplish, but they don't let it, they just compare on what they see now and not look into the future.

It might be because some people don't care. Some might believe that the kids don't get enough of the money. Me personally, I believe that here in America there is enough poverty that maybe we out to help those here first.
I volunteer with soup kitchens and do volunteer work to help those less fortunate than me in my city. I do what I can, and I see where my hard work is going and I see what my time and energy do here.

These things take money, oodles and oodles of it and in many countries in Africa the aide money goes into the pockets at the higher levels first. With bribery and corruption there is nothing left to give to the poor.
Money has to be spent on the armed forces so they will be able to keep the poor in their place should they unite and cry foul.
Unfortunately all of the good land is taken by the rich. Your suggestion of placing them in a housing environment is a little naive. There are no housing estates and food as there is no money left.

Not everyone is in a financial state to be able to do this! Plus nobody cares what happens to little black children. As you can see we haven't even went to Darfuar yet! We have a very racist government. They have to depend on people like Oprah to help them. It's a very sad thing.

yeah, well, that would be great to see: a healty housing enviroment. Great idea and maby god will hear you out :)
as a dude said earlier, start by helping your own and please stop helping others who dont even want your help.
You guys were "helping" afganistan, you were helping iran, sierra leone, liberia and now you are "helping" iraq.
My honest question, helping them in what, going where, doing what exactly? Everyone shouts outloud its against comunism and terorism when in the end its all about who gets what.
Did you notice that when natural resources are discovered a large number of people starts dieing?
Have you heared of confilct free diamonds law? you people voted for it in 2004 i think after thousands and thousands of people died because of them. And they still do as sierra leone is still on fire
Everything is about who gets what today and no excuse is going to hide it. This is where things should get started. Stop wanting what doesnt belong to you, stop helping people who dont need or want it
If you fall on the street and a guy comes to help you out you say "no thank you" and he backs away. but think of a guy who does it the american way, or should i say the bush way "you dont know what you are saying let me help you" and pulls you up, turns his back and leaves.
dissy as you are from the first fall, with no support you fall back. Where the help in that??
does anyone want to buy rocks??
so nobody is sellin any
stop buying conflinct diamonds and they will stop selling them. No buyers, no need for diamonds. No need for diamonds, no need for mines. No need of mines, no need of slaves to work it
Maby that way they will go back to their families from where they were taken by force
That way they will reunite and take care of eachother the way they know best
peace

Their tummies are full of fluids, I guess...you could donate to the starving kids in Africa so that they have enough money to buy food to eat.

because the rest of the world doesnt like blacks in general, you do , I do, but we can do nothing, they destroy themselves. Africa has a lot of natural resources but they do not help themselves,, they kill each other, they are very violent in general. even if the government brings them 3 million of condoms they still do not use them...they belive in different things we do.. if they have hiv they believe having sex with a baby will cure them..the majority of white people only care about themselves.. specially Americans they look only for their interests..the world is coming to an end.. people become insensitive, but before you worry about those blacks over there try to change those who live here, and follow all those violent and destructive songs and are a real threat to the American society, gangs create more gangs,, I have seen my people joining gangs and I cant convince them to stop. they get mugged from blacks in school , high school, majority af the bullys are blacks, they developed hate, and became gangsters,, worry about our social system first,, think.. why an African AMerican who can get access to free public education , food and welfare still do not use it. they waste it, they do not take the minimum wage paying job plus get another job and find a decent way of making a living,, they hustle in the corner and wait you work and take it away from you, there is soo much resentful feelings after slavery time, that even was over 400 years,, nothing changed that much still whites got more of the wealth, oportunities, etc etc,, just that they have more oportunities in life they do not work hard enough to get it, after Martin Luther King...I have not seen a real leader in their community... believe me..worry more about blacks from usa..because if we dont.. we all become like them...violence is contagious..and the few of them who are succesful do not do anything for their community,,, look at Condoliza Rice.. shopping in New york while her people were dying in Katrina's catastrofe...

Because these organizations pocket the money. I doubt very much of your money goes toward the children.
